If we're talking strictly the TG content in this. This had to be
the least TG episode/ movie I've ever seen. Why I hate these
quantum leap type of TG?

I think this reboot has pretty much established that Ben leaps into
the body, not just some kind of illusion. In the boxing episode
Addison commented that he may be Ben but he has the boxer's
strength and reflexes. And in last night's episode she asked if he
noticed anything missing in his current body.

You keep saying "the ratings still suck" but apparently not to NBC
disagrees with you if they're reporting that the data says it is
the #1 new show in the 18-49 age demographic and Top 5 on their
streaming service.

@TheDetective
Why does NBC disagrees with me?Look at the ratings! Again lower
ratings then last week. Sure its #1 new show in the 18-49 age
demographic since its their only new show this year. And Top 5 of
how many on their streaming service and which week?
Maybe you guys look for yourselves and do not believe everything a
TV network claims to be true.

@guest (Vassey)
Did you even read the article?
It might shock you to know, TV ratings aren't just about total
number of viewers anymore. Streaming has changed the game; they
look at streaming numbers and when it comes to over the air TV it's
the key 18-49 demo, and if they're satisfied with those numbers,
then it's not "sucking."
If it was "sucking" as you said, why pump more money into it and
order additional episodes?

How about we wait if the Series gets cancelled or not? And btw the
TV 18-49 demo
of the Series is the 2 lowest of all NBC Series at the Moment.
Maybe that will change,maybe not.

In the boxing episode, they stated that the leaper had all of the
physical prowess of the boxer. They didn't really explore that too
much with him as the woman. The stories have been good stories, and
it is well written. But I was disappointed on the lack of gender
exploration.

Does it still use the classic theme song although updated for
modern times and does Ben still say "Oh Boy!" like Sam when he
leaps into a bad situation?
Also in the first episode, was their a small tribute to Dean
Stockwell at the end credits?

They don't use a theme song, and Ben doesn't have a catchphrase
when he leaps into someone. It's trying to be Quantum Leap: The
Next Generation, rather than trying to slavishly be Quantum Leap:
The Original Series with new actors.
There was a tribute to Dean Stockwell on the first episode.

I get this version wants to be apart from Sam Beckett and of course
I expected for Ben not to be like him at all. But it's kind of sad
the theme song from the original version never gets remade let
alone the catchphrase doesn't come back at all.
As for Stockwell, I'm assuming their was a black screen with his
name on it along with the date he was born and his death.

Despite getting an order for an additional 6 episodes; the show is
tanking in the ratings and will be cancelled.

There is an ending to this season planned, maybe two, with or
without Scott Bakulla. I am doubtful it will go past this season.
It will be a full "season" of 12 or whatever episodes. Less than
half of the 24-26 episodes of most network shows a few years ago.
Too bad. The stories are good.

Also I'm assuming the classic opening monologue being said by Ziggy
but with the mention of Ben instead Sam won't come back either
right?

The show has lost over 1 million Viewers from Episode 1 to Episode
6. 18-49 demo went down from 0.47 to 0.33 too. Sad to see that.

It was obviously a reboot of a cult classic where fans have mixed
reactions to it (mainly negative) although the original itself
despite airing four seasons in total was never a runaway hit at all
and I sorry to say this but we all know reboots will never be
nowhere near as good as the original.

Battlestar Galactica reboot was much better than the original, IMO.

Ok That Guy you got me with Battlestar Galactica but again not all
reboots are going to be good as the original.
