I noticed during tonight's credits of Dead Zone that one of the new producers of the show is Tommy Thompson... I vaguely recall someone of that name being in the credits for QL...I wonder if it is the same person
Yeah and there is(or was) a member of "Dubya's" cabinet with that name. Secretary of Health and Human Resources I believe.
BTW, I recently started a C2 community @ fanfiction.net. It's the only one for Quantum Leap and it's titled "Quantum Leap: The Virtual Episodes". http://www.fanfiction.net/c2/18999/0/1/
