As we know, NBC is doing a sequel to Quantum Leap which debuts on September 19th. Today, the network released a little teaser from an upcoming episode.
In that promo, we see physicist Ben Song (Raymond Lee) travel back to 1991 at the moment that the body he leaped into is about the leap out of a plane over Desert Storm, Kuwait. What does he say? What we all would say and do in that situation.
Too bad they won’t let him get the “t” out on broadcast, but hopefully, they will allow it when it streams on Peacock.

CBS surprised everyone when they decided to cancel Magnum P.I. after five seasons. One of the people most surprised by that decision was NBC. So the network picked it up for two 10-episode seasons, according to Deadline.
Jay Hernandez, who plays the title role, wrote, “It was a bit circuitous but we did it!Your love & support helped get us over the finish line, thank you & thanks to @nbc for stepping up! Time to dust off the Aloha shirt! #ohana ❣️🍾😎🏝🌈🏎”
Congrats to the show for being saved from the brink of death. I am always when a series gets a second life. I just wish it were the shows I watched, but at least another TV fan is happy!

I hope NBC’s two sitcoms won’t be hurt by their late premiere date. Shows that debut later in the season have a problem finding an audience. Maybe they will be the exception.
Put on your Boogie shoes because NBC has a new dancing competition debuting tonight at 10p. Dancing with Myself has 12 amateur dancers competing to be the best dancer of the night.
The show was created by Shakira, and she is joined at the judges’ table by Nick Jonas and Liza Koshy. However, most of the judging is done by the studio audience.
How? Each of the contestants is in their own pod, and they cannot see what the other one is doing. For the first round, they are given a dance to do by Shakira, and they have to impress the studio audience and the judges. When all 12 of them have danced, it is time for the audience to vote on their favorites. When their vote is submitted, then the judges can save some of the eliminated contestants to move on to the next round.
These contestants range from high school age to their 50s. They are flight attendants, professional swimmers, and plus-size models. They are just like us who are watching from home.
One-by-one they compete in five other dance battles, which include a freestyle dance battle, a dance choreographed by a celebrity, one with a surprise element, and finally, one that they created by themselves. At the end of the night, only one person brings home the $25,000. Not bad for a day’s worth of dancing.
When it comes to the viewers at home, be prepared for one of the fastest-paced shows you have ever seen. Seriously, it moved so fast, I had to watch it a second time because I had no idea what just happened. They jam-packed a two-hour show into one, and it is amazing. You won’t be bored because you don’t have time to be.
This show is not about the judges, it is about the dancing, and that is just the way I like it.
NBC announced its Fall schedule, and it looks a lot like last year’s with a few changes.
I am curious how La Brea is going to do because I thought it was the most disappointing pilots I have ever seen. While that was me, people still watched. When it comes to the rest, there is not much to say. Thus, why I am not saying much.
