Been watching Sprung on Freebee (Amazon) If you liked ‘Raising Hope’ then you’ll like this show….not just for the 2 main Actors.

What in the actual F**k was that?!?!?!?!?!? 

It is what you get when a character is no longer covered by copyright or trademark  or whatever one it is that covers characters - and any old hack can use it in a movie

Is this still within his own lifetime..?

Probably has a good explanation anyway.

Don't know. But here's the synopsis:

Quote

It's been 30 years since Dr. Sam Beckett stepped into the Quantum Leap accelerator and vanished. Now a new team has been assembled to restart the project in the hopes of understanding the mysteries behind the machine and the man who created it.

Everything changes, however, when Ben makes an unauthorized leap into the past, leaving the team behind to solve the mystery of why he did it. At Ben’s side throughout his leaps is Addison (Caitlin Bassett), who appears in the form of a hologram only Ben can see and hear. She’s a decorated Army veteran who brings level-headed precision to her job.

At the helm of the highly confidential operation is Herbert “Magic” Williams (Ernie Hudson), a no-nonsense career military man who has to answer to his bosses who won’t be happy once they learn about the breach of protocol. The rest of the team at headquarters includes Ian Wright (Mason Alexander Park), who runs the Artificial Intelligence unit “Ziggy,” and Jenn Chou (Nanrisa Lee), who heads up digital security for the project.

As Ben leaps from life to life, putting right what once went wrong, it becomes clear that he and the team are on a thrilling journey. However, Addison, Magic, Ian and Jenn know that if they are going to solve the mystery of Ben’s leap and bring him home, they must act fast or lose him forever.

IMO the 1930 version is still harrowing enough.

The Machine gun machines still stick in my mind.  The version with Richard Thomas wasn't bad (actually pretty good) but I prefer the one from the thirties.

I’ve seen a few versions of All Quiet on The Western Front and they’ve mostly been pretty good, but also extreme downers. I’ll probably check it out with the hopes of having something more lighthearted to watch afterwards

Was watching a few episodes of Sprung on prime for free on that freevie thing they have with commercials. It’s actually pretty funny. The whole life after jail show seems to be a thing now. The main character went to jail for most of his life selling weed, which is something they make fun of now since it’s practically legal these days. He never was a bad guy, but he has no other source of income after getting out during the beginning of the pandemic and ends up staying with his cell mate and his cell mates mother and a female convict he’d sort of had a relationship while locked up.
He’d basically learned a lot of tricks from other prisoners and they apply those tricks to rob people. Only he’s got a rule that they have to be stealing only from bad people and he tends to try to find ways to make himself feel better by helping out the community in need in simple ways by the end of each episode. Over all, I really like the show so far. I only got up to the fifth episode. It’s got a mix of humor and heart all in one chaotic show.

Man, she's going to have some big shoes to fill. Fingers crossed.

 

Christina Ricci will always be our favorite but I think Jenna Ortega is going to give her a run for her money. B))

Hope this is good. ✌✌✌

I hope someone on the writing staff is watching these kills montages...

Yes, I know the kill montage videos of Last of Us 2 are better and who won't want to see Bella Ramsey pulling some of those kills but I hope they do some awesome kill scenes.

@azrael While I've never personally played the games before I've watched all of the Last of Us Gameplay via "theRadBrad" on YouTube. Hopefully this series stays loyal to the games & story. On a side note the game "Days Gone" would make a cool series too. 

@electric indigo I wondered why she looked familiar, between Pedro & Bella the acting should be pretty solid in this.

That looked better, and her final line delivery was classic. I'm also getting a hefty...
