    often historial events. He also has a sidekick that only he can see. Its a popular program that I've now forgotten the name of.

    Thanks. Thats exactly it. Green added. Well, actually, this came to my mind because I watched an episdre of Columbo the other day. It had the young Dean Stockwell (the sidekick in Quantum Leap) in it. He was the guy who was murdered in the episode 'The most criucial game'

    When I have questions like that, usually I search on answers.com
    Fill "Dean Stockwell" and you'll be answered with this page: http://www.answers.com/topic/dean-stockwell with a reference to Quantum Leap in the first paragraph.

    or if you go to IMDB.com and search for an actor, you'll get a list of every show/movie they've been in.

    Ahh, Scott Bakula... One of few men to share a place in my pre-teen heart. I actually have written out the song that he sang in one of the episodes when he was a rockstar :p

    Anyone remember Voyagers? That was another "time travel to fix stuff that's gone wrong" show I watched when I was a kid.

    I remember Quantum Leap, I used to watch that and 90210 every week. :eek:

    I caught a few episodes of Columbo about a month ago, what a great show that was. Peter Falk is awesome in pretty much everything he's ever been in.

    Have you noticed how many shows that you enjoy at the time of when they first air and yet, years later, when they come on TV again, they are never the same. This is what happened with shows like the A-Team, Knight Rider. I used to enjoy it when I first watched them. Now they seem pretty ameteurish.

    I loved that show, but I didn't watch its last seasons.

    Never watched Quantum Leap though, do you recommend it?
