It has been almost two months since we got a new episode of Quantum Leap, and it is finally back with a new episode tonight at 10p on NBC.
When we last left off, Ben (Raymond Lee) told Addison (Deborah Ann Woll) that the reason why he started leaping was to save her. Just as he said that to her, he leaped into a new person. Therefore, leaving her and us hanging.
Ben leaps into a bodyguard, who is protecting Carly (Deborah Ann Woll), a singer, in 1979. When Addison tells him to save her life, he does. However, that doesn’t keep her from being killed. So now, he has to do whatever he can to save her.
Much like he has to save his fiancée. Addison sees the parallels between Carly and herself, but Ben doesn’t. Will she be able to get through to him?
When Addison tells Magic (Ernie Hudson), Jenn (Nanrisa Lee), and Ian (Mason Alexander Park) why Ben is leaping, they start doing everything in their power to save her too. They even go as far as to find Al’s daughter Janis Calavicci (Georgina Reilly), to see what she knows about Addison’s fate. What she says will shock you. But I have said too much.
What I will say is that I am happy that the series is focusing as much on the leaps as they do on what is going on during the current time. I don’t know about you, but I am tuning in more for the leaps than the serialized content.
Since they have been doing a 50/50 mix, I think that the Sci-Fi Drama has really found its groove. Therefore, making it totally groovy!
Drake Bell and his wife, Janet Von Schmeling, were able to keep their marriage a secret for years. And now, they are separating.
According to Page Six, a source told them that Bell is in treatment after reportedly being seen huffing balloons while the couple’s son, Adonis, 5, was in the backseat.
Schmeling is said to have had enough, so she moved back to Florida with their child.
The estranged couple started dating in 2013 and were married five years later.
CNN told Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen that they couldn’t drink any alcohol during their New Year’s Eve coverage, and their four kids are happy about that. That is because their dads were able to take Benjamin, 3, and Lucy Cohen, 8 months, and Wyatt, 2, and Sebastian Cooper, 10 months, to go to the park while the sun was out on New Year’s Day. Something they would not have been able to do had they been hungover.
Jeremy Renner was injured yesterday while plowing snow and was airlifted to a local Reno hospital.
“We can confirm Jeremy is in critical but stable condition with injuries suffered after experiencing a weather-related accident while plowing snow earlier today,” a publicist for the 51-year-old actor told The Hollywood Reporter. “His family is with him, and he is receiving excellent care.”
According to TMZ, the Snowcat snow plow he owns and was using, somehow lost control and ran over one of his legs. The actor, who was alone at the time, lost a lot of blood due to his injury. However, a neighbor, who is a doctor, ran over to assist and was able to put a tourniquet on his leg while they were waiting for paramedics to arrive.
The Public Information Officer at Washoe County Sheriff’s Office told THR that the major accident investigation at their office is investigating how the accident happened.
Hopefully, the actor will recuperate quickly from his injuries.
UPDATE: Here is an update on the actor’s condition. “We can confirm that Jeremy has suffered blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries and has undergone surgery today, January 2 2023. He has returned from surgery and remains in the intensive care unit in critical but stable condition.
“Jeremy’s family would like to express their gratitude to the incredible doctors and nurses looking after him, Truckee Meadows Fire and Rescue, Washoe County Sheriff, Reno City Mayor Hillary Schieve and the Carano and Murdock families. They are also tremendously overwhelmed and appreciative of the outpouring of love and support from his fans.”
At least we got this. #CNN has botched ringing in the New Year in New Orleans by playing "Back That Azz Up" and #DonLemon missed the New Years countdown because he couldn't hear the producers.#CNNNYE#CNNnewyearpic.twitter.com/VfUkblgBT2

There is only one thing that every host is required to do when they are hosting a New Year’s Eve special. And that is to do the countdown to midnight.
However, a sober Don Lemon missed the one for the central time zone because he was singing and dancing with everyone in New Orleans. And you know what, they didn’t care because they could drink, unlike Lemon.
It is pretty sad when the most trusted name in news can’t even get the countdown right. But that was not their worst offense of the night. Keeping all of their on-air people sober was their biggest mistake.
Here is hoping they get rid of that policy next year because it was a big fail, just like everything the new head of the network has been doing since he started there.
