Watching #QuantumLeap thirty-five years after its premiere just feels like I missed out on this wonderful show. It came out in my birth year of 1989. As I continue Season 2, I'm connected to how well the writing in each episode stands out, especially being a time travel slice of life series. Seeing Sam solve these situational scenarios is very comforting to me. Like I haven't seen a show like this ever. I'm damn near close to saying that this is becoming a favorite of mine. It fills me with joy.
It's kind of insane that a television series from 1985, forty years ago, #TheEqualizer has 2 concurrent adaptations of the property, one in a film series starring Denzel Washington and the other a television show starring Queen Latifah. I wasn't expecting a resurgence like this. What other properties is like this? Maybe Fantasy Island for a brief period with that film and television series. That's all I can think of.
The funny thing about mentioning Donald P. Bellisario's shows last month is that I started to watch #QuantumLeap for the first time. I'm currently in Season 2. I like it so far. The chemistry between Sam and Al is on point, and the writing for each episode is so great. It's probably the best television writing I've seen in recent years. It's turning to become a new favorite for me. I love time travel, and this fits into my wheelhouse very well thus far.

I realize that I have Donald P. Bellisario's first 3 television series with #MagnumPI, Tales of the Gold Monkey, and #Airwolf on DVD. I'm thinking of watching Magnum P.I. and Airwolf. It'll be neat to see how things aired on #CBS back in the 80s. I need some 80s television in my rotation. ✨️

I've been listening to this album a lot since it came out this year.

#SunglassesKid constructs a beautiful narrative within this album, #InternalAffairs. It makes you feel like you're in an #1980s #Movie. Go listen to it on your music streamer of choice. I normally use #Spotify.

November 22, 1989 - Back to the Future Part II is released. A grand sequel and a great flick that people celebrate Back to the Future day, which is the date in this film. It's turning 35 this year.

Fun fact: I was born two weeks later when this film came out. I'm also turning 35 this year. 🥳
