I doubt that many of you loved this show as much as I did, but I was very happy (and surprised) to see that season 1 is now available on dvd. Gonna go pick it up Monday (after my LSAT exam)!

The full screen, 3 disc set features:
All 8 episodes including the two-hour pilot
"A Kiss With History: Remembering "Quantum Leap" feature of the making of the series

Sweet Jesus, and it's only $45! I want...but I wonder, I am getting a widescreen HDTV in a few weeks and I don't own any full screen DVDs, how the heck would that work on a 16:9 tv to have a 4:3 image on it? I'd hate to see Sam being stretched like something out of Hellraiser.

Much like this...

Interestingly enough, that's the same way it works when I play Medal of Honor on my 17" PB (cuz MoH doesn't support the 1440x900 resolution!)

Excellent!!

I have always managed to miss the first half of the pilot! Always. Annoying as hell. It's worth the money just for me to be able to see that!

They actually released the pilot on DVD back in 1998.

Though it appears cheaper to buy the whole season now. :)

Such a good show. I was pissed when Sci Fi stopped playing it during the afternoons at 4 and stopped airing all those Quantum Leap marathons.
