Show Notes
The final episode of the OG, "Mirror Image" gave us but a glimpse of the Calaviccis' changed life after Sam leapt into Beth's living room to give her enough hope to wait for Al to return from Vietnam.
Now, the new series has given us their youngest daughter, Janis, a complicated mother-daughter relationship, and just a few hints of the Calavicci family's life once Sam was lost, out of the project's reach.
Special guest, Lauren Milberger - actor, writer, podcaster, and co-host of FYI: The Murphy Brown Podcast, joins us to talk about what all this means for the lore of the Quantum Leap universe - what we know, what we don't, and what we hope to see in the new series and any future tie-in media.
