WELCOME TO KRISTI NOEM FUCK PLANE.

i still get the earth starbase refuel / upgrade theme stuck in my head, like, multiple times a week

i think my first proper playthrough used the updated soundtrack that came out around(?) / with(?) the ur-quan masters release so my mileage may differ,

but,

gd was it ever

the vocal arilou theme was so good and haunting and, like, a perfect fit for them

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

it's all so goofy — i love it

and if we're going to play that angle, a lot of the show's drama — specifically, the bits where al is racing to figure shit out while sam is left to flounder — kind of falls apart too, since al could take his time in 1999 before getting hologrammed back to the past

since sam is, as a rule, always in the past, anything he might have experienced has long since occurred by the time al does his interacting with him, so there's no need to try to preserve any since of linearity (except for the viewer, of course)

and if you try to lampshade that by saying something like, "well, maybe what sees instantaneous for sam actually takes longer for al," the whole thing just unravels further

here's the thing: even though the leap is instantaneous from our perspective (and, as it is implied, sam
and al), al will be wearing a new wild-ass outfit

like, did he change in the intervening three minutes???

however, if you watch the next episode (that begins with what was teased at the end of the previous episode), you'll notice al often shows up shortly afterward

throughout an episode and just before it ends, sam usually does a fair amount of interacting with dean stockwell's insane-fit-sporting al

immediately following the leap out, i don't think we ever see al as part of the next episode's teaser

so the show's format has episodes starting with our boy bakula leaping, in medias res, into some wild, new person and situation and ending with him sorting the situation before leaping isn't a new situation as a teaser of the next episode, right?

but, with the show now running in multi-episode blocks on OTA TV, a few things have come up that i had never noticed before and that i should probably not scrutinize to closely but, lmao, i cannot help myself

honestly, the plot holes and their rough-hewn covers frequently make the show more charming

like, they go so far as to explain that the people sam leaps into get taken to the waiting room for the duration of the leap, but that raises all sorts of questions and isn't really necessary??

Quantum Leap (1989) is the sort of show that's built around a big enough concept that it ① has to lean upon a lot of lampshading to make it work and ② i don't care that it does

Know the difference between Halo and Marathon.

In Halo, Master Chief uses a needler in space.

In Marathon, you don’t use the space needle.

If you remember seeing this on Save Our Sailors, you qualify for the senior discount.
