This is the sequel series to the the 1989 TV series of the same name with Dr. Sam Beckett (Scott Bakula) and Rear Admiral Al Calavicci (Dean Stockwell). In 1995, Beckett stepped into the Quantum Leap Accelerator and vanished. Beckett never returned and the program was abandoned. Since then, it has been restarted again. Dr. Ben Song (Raymond Lee) is planning to marry his girlfriend/work partner Addison Augustine (Caitlin Bassett). Without telling his friends, Ben steps into the machine and the journey begins again. Ian Wright (Mason Alexander Park), Jenn Chou (Nanrisa Lee), and Herbert 'Magic' Williams (Ernie Hudson) are the other members of the team. Al's daughter Janis Calavicci (Georgina Reilly) is involved.
Scott Bakula and Dean Stockwell were a fun duo in the original series. That's what's missing in this one. This is not fun. This especially misses Dean Stockwell or someone like him. The original ran into problems as the premise got more complicated in the later years. This one starts with complicated and only gets worst. I don't mind the lead, but his chemistry with Addison is rather stiff. This got two seasons which is way too much.
