S2 DVD release Nov. 29?
According to what I'm seeing on (American) Amazon, Season 2 of the revival will be released Nov. 29th.
It initially costs $35 (!) but I understand they tend to come down quickly.
No word on extra features.

Scott Bakula Nominated on BroadwayWorld for Playing Don Quixote
The nominations are out for BroadwayWorld New Hampshire awards and Scott Bakula has been nominated for Best Performer in a Musical playing Don Quixote in Man of La Mancha at Peterborough Players. I know a lot of Quantum Leap fans went to see him and, in some ways, to see an episode of Quantum Leap come to life, so if you enjoyed his performance and want to vote for him, voting is open until December 31st.
Also, Chelsea was nominated for the same award for her portrayal of Aldonza/Dulcinea and the production and director were nominated for their respective categories.
Additionally, if you enjoyed my (Darren Green) performance, I was shocked to see that I was nominated for Best Supporting Performer in a Musical for playing Juan in that show and you can vote for me. I'm the guy who had posted the news article from my hometown newspaper about acting in this show with my favorite actor.

If you were offered your own Quantum Leap would you do it?
If you were offered a Quantum Leap back into your life at any point as a sort of fixed point do-over would you take it?
The condition if the leap being that you leap into your younger self but that's about it.
Your present day body was destroyed in the transit and for all intents and purposes tour "soul" from the present day lives in your younger body with all memories intact.
Now because of that would you change or alter anything?
For myself I thought about this a lot before writing this and to be honest I don't think I would change anything because of the very real fear of changing time.
I know that's one of the really silly things in science fiction that they go on about in movies but I do wonder if it was a real thing if there would be some kind of real world effect.
I might tamper with telling a couple of dear people that they should have a health check done, thus possibly saving their lives.
That's probably as far as I would take with meddling.
I think knowing what I know now I might not do some of the things that I have done and lead a bit more of a different life, same hobbies, same interests just different choices.
