This was a TV Critics Association Virtual Panel, so there many press there.<\/p>\n<p>NBC UNIVERSAL 2022 TCA PRESS TOUR<br \/>\n&#8220;QUANTUM LEAP&#8221;<br \/>\nVirtual via Zoom September 15, 2022<br \/>\n\u00a9 2022 NBC Universal. All rights reserved.<\/p>\n<p>Opening remarks: Hello, everyone, and welcome to the &#8220;Quantum Leap&#8221; panel. I know many of you are fans of the original series, and we&#8217;re excited to bring this reimagined version back to NBC. The series will premiere Monday, September 19th, at 10:00 PM and will be available the following day on Peacock. It&#8217;s been nearly 30 years since Dr. Sam Beckett stepped into the Quantum Leap accelerator and vanished. Now, a new team, led by physicist Ben Song, has been assembled to restart the project in the hopes of understanding the mysteries behind the machine and the man who created it. Joining us for the panel from left to right, our executive producer and showrunner Martin Gero, Raymond Lee, and Caitlin Bassett. On the second row are Ernie Hudson, Mason Alexander Park, and Nanrisa Lee.<\/p>\n<p>In an exciting unveiling during the NBC Universal 2022 TCA Press Tour, the reimagined version of the iconic series &#8220;Quantum Leap&#8221; was showcased, sparking a wave of nostalgia among fans of the original series while promising a fresh take on the beloved concept. The panel, hosted virtually via Zoom, featured the talent behind the new &#8220;Quantum Leap,&#8221; including Raymond Lee, Caitlin Bassett, Ernie Hudson, Mason Alexander Park, Nanrisa Lee, and the showrunner and executive producer, Martin Gero.<\/p>\n<p>The introductory session began with a warm welcome from Matt Lifson of the corporate communications team, setting the stage for an insightful discussion. As fans eagerly awaited details about the upcoming series, the show&#8217;s premise and its connection to the original were teased.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Nostalgic Revival<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For fans of the original &#8220;Quantum Leap,&#8221; which aired nearly 30 years ago, the memories of Dr. Sam Beckett&#8217;s time-traveling adventures were brought back to life. The reimagined series, set to premiere on Monday, September 19th, at 10:00 PM on NBC and available the following day on Peacock, promises to revive the essence of the original while bringing new elements to the table.<\/p>\n<p>The core concept remains intact: a team, led by physicist Ben Song, assembles to restart the Quantum Leap project and explore the mysteries surrounding the machine and its enigmatic creator, Dr. Sam Beckett. This fresh perspective allows for a continuation of the legacy while introducing a new set of characters and stories.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Cast Shares Their Excitement<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The panelists were eager to share their enthusiasm for the show. Raymond Lee, who plays Ben Song, acknowledged the enormous shoes to fill left by the iconic character of Sam Beckett. He highlighted the common thread that connects both characters: their commitment to doing good and their strong sense of empathy.<\/p>\n<p>The cast, which also includes Ernie Hudson, Mason Alexander Park, and Nanrisa Lee, expressed their fondness for the original series. Ernie Hudson reminisced about watching the show with his children and shared his excitement about joining the new iteration, while Mason Alexander Park humorously revealed they had no one to watch the show with as a child.<\/p>\n<p>Caitlin Bassett, who plays the hologram Addison, admitted to missing the original series but now relishes the opportunity to share the experience with her father, who was a devoted fan. Her portrayal of Addison adds a unique dimension to the show.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Martin Gero on the Essence of the Show<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Showrunner and executive producer Martin Gero shed light on the essence of &#8220;Quantum Leap&#8221; and the character of Ben Song. He emphasized that the show centers on hope, heart, humor, and history, with Ben embodying the first three elements. Gero spoke passionately about the importance of humor, a key aspect of the original series, and how the new cast, especially Raymond Lee, continues that tradition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Caitlin Bassett&#8217;s Remarkable Journey<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the standout moments during the panel was Caitlin Bassett&#8217;s incredible journey to the role. A former military officer, Bassett decided to pursue acting after completing her service. She acknowledged the role as a dream come true, reflecting on the show&#8217;s ability to bring hope and positivity to viewers&#8217; lives.<\/p>\n<p>Gero praised Bassett&#8217;s performance, emphasizing her extraordinary talent, which shines through in her role as Addison despite her being relatively new to the acting world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Time-Traveling Adventures Await<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The cast and showrunner revealed their personal preferences for time periods they would like to visit if they could leap through time themselves. Nanrisa Lee expressed a desire to explore her family&#8217;s history in 1920s Korea, while Mason Alexander Park yearned for the vibrant atmosphere of 1920s Weimar Cabaret in Berlin or the opportunity to witness Judy Garland&#8217;s legendary performance at Carnegie Hall in 1961. Caitlin Bassett was drawn to the tumultuous era just before World War I as a history enthusiast.<\/p>\n<p>Ernie Hudson&#8217;s choice was the 1960s, a time of significant cultural and political change, while Raymond Lee humorously mentioned a fondness for the early 2000s, complete with memories of board shorts and popular music of the time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Continuity and the Return of &#8220;Magic&#8221; Williams<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One burning question among press was how the new series would handle continuity and references to the original. Martin Gero confirmed that &#8220;Magic&#8221; Williams, a special name for &#8220;Quantum Leap&#8221; fans, would indeed return as the same character from the original series. Ernie Hudson, who portrays &#8220;Magic&#8221; Williams, expressed excitement about delving into his character&#8217;s backstory and providing answers to long-standing questions from the original show.<\/p>\n<p>The panel concluded with an insightful look into the balance between the episodic nature of the series, its serialized elements, and the mystery surrounding Ben Song&#8217;s journey to leap home. Gero assured viewers that while answers would be provided, the focus would remain on the thrilling time-traveling adventures that have captivated audiences for generations.<\/p>\n<p>As the premiere date of &#8220;Quantum Leap&#8221; approaches, fans can eagerly anticipate a nostalgic revival with a fresh and exciting twist. With a talented cast and creative team at the helm, &#8220;Quantum Leap&#8221; is poised to capture the hearts and imaginations of both longtime fans and a new generation of viewers.<\/p>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- TVMEGBODY -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1056557952271337\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8801203268\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>MORE INFO:<span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=iavhTGFDqUE\">Trailer<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-48637 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/qlkeyart.jpg\" alt=\"QUANTUM LEAP -- Pictured: &quot;Quantum Leap&quot; Key Art -- (Photo by: NBC)\" width=\"238\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/qlkeyart.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/qlkeyart-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 238px) 100vw, 238px\" \/><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><strong>Quantum Leap<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Season Premiere Wednesday, October 4 (8-9pm ET\/PT) on NBC.
