Again, no pick of the week. There’s a lot of mediocrity out this week, but the next two weeks have new Babylon 5, Stargate SG-1, 300, Popeye, film noir, and more. Save your pennies for that.
Voyagers!
So glad to see this one on DVD. One of my favorite shows growing up. I could never get into Quantum Leap because it always seemed like a rip-off of this show. Fun show (and educational) for kids.
