BW’s Daily Article Link> Scott Bakula Not Returning To Quantum Leap

The new Quantum Leap is so far intended to be a sequel series in which a new team tries to learn why Sam Beckett never leaped home, as stated in the final episode (then maybe they shouldn’t have given him a wife in that one episode?). Questions have been raised by fans as to why Scott Bakula isn’t returning to the show. Well, he just took to Instagram to answer that question. Dean Stockwell, who played his helper, Al, passed away last year so he can’t return either (not that’s not mentioned as part of the reason why Bakula isn’t returning).
