By NBC has yet to make a renewal decision on its “Quantum Leap” revival series, which aired its second season finale the other day, but those involved are already making plans.
Co-showrunners Martin Gero and Dean Georgaris, speaking with TV Line, tease that their plans for a potential third season are already roughly in place with Gero saying: “We know what the shape would be for Season 3, where it would go and how it would end”.
Geogaris then adds that the show can now “have a little more humor” after its offloaded so much baggage in the recent finale.
We’ve spent two seasons building up two great leapers and a supporting cast that now may or may not have a code that may or may not work again to pull people out, and it really becomes about what can we affirmatively do with this new dynamic.
The fact that we can have a little more humor now because we don’t have this heaviness hanging over us. We spent two seasons building up a launchpad to a whole new journey.”
The series hit a speed bump in the second season which saw it go on a month-and-a-half hiatus due to the strikes and allowing time for production to catch up.
However, not that many people seemed to be aware the show was back, as this most recent batch of episodes pulled in notably fewer numbers than the earlier second-season episodes late last year.
The revival series stars Raymond Lee as Ben Song, Caitlin Bassett as Addison Augustine, Mason Alexander Park as Ian Wright, Eliza Taylor as Hannah Carson, Ernie Hudson as Herbert Williams, Peter Gadiot as Tom Westfall, and Nanrisa Lee as Jenn Chou
