425: Oh Boy, It's A New Quantum Leap!

Everything old continues to be new again as NBC brings its late '80s/early '90s time travel series Quantum Leap back for a new generation; Vulture TV critic Kathryn VanArendonk joins us to discuss whether we wish we could travel back to stop it from happening. Around The Dial takes us through Los Espookys, Reservation Dogs, Halt And Catch Fire, and Journeyman. For the long-awaited return of Will Dave Hate This?, Sarah and Tara try to predict the titular Dave's reaction to the Marvel special Werewolf By Night. Laura F. uses an Extra Credit getting us to split up TV marriages, and couple up the new singletons with other TV characters. Kathryn presents the Station Eleven episode "Dr. Chaudhary" for admission into the Canon. Then after naming the week's Winner and Loser, it's on to a Game Time that jumps around, jumps up, and gets down. Leap into a comfy chair and join us!GUESTS👤 Kathryn VanArendonkTOPICSLead Topic: 🦘 Quantum Leap (2022) Around The Dial: 👻 Los Espookys Around The Dial: 🐶 Reservation Dogs Around The Dial: 💾 Halt And Catch Fire Around The Dial: ⏰ Journeyman Will Dave Hate This?: 🐺 Werewolf By Night Extra Credit: ❤️‍🩹 Another Sad Divorce StatisticThe Canon: 🧑‍🚀 Station Eleven S01.E09: Dr. ChaudharyWinner & Loser: 👍 Grimm Winner & Loser: 👎 NY1 Meteorologist Erick AdameGame Time: 🤯 Quantum LeapingNOTES🗒 Full episode notes can be found on the episode 425 page on ExtraHotGreat.com🐦 Kathryn VanArendonk on Twitter🎙 Kathryn's 2019 interview with Scott Bakula about the original Quantum Leap💄 The Listen To Sassy podcast on Patreon👤 Kathryn's Kate Beaton profile at Vulture🦤 The Vulture Festival👋 Kathryn and Jesse David Fox's conversation about Welcome To Wrexham at Vulture✍️ Kathryn at Vulture📚 Exhibit B.
