I remember the mistake happening on the first run episodes. So not the DVD.
shareA few Season 2 episodes were filmed during Season 1, including "What Price Gloria?" They aired the leap-in as a teaser cliffhanger for the end of the first season. When it came to time to produce Season 2, they figured they needed an episode that recapped the premise for new viewers, so they made Honeymoon Express and aired that first. "What Price Gloria?" aired later in the season. I hope that clears it up!
shareYes, also it was going to be Sam's first leap into a woman. Any episodes like that were rather daring for network TV because they indirectly dealt with gender identity issues.
There were some more since now that I've seen. A couple where he leaps into the black butler guy as well.
shareAre you talking about season 3 Christmas episode, A Little Miracle? He played a chubby, mustached white butler. Season 1 "The Color of Truth" where Sam leaps into Jesse Tyler but he was Miss Melny chauffeur (similar to Driving Miss Daisy). He played two black characters nicknamed Magic, one a Navy Seal the other an old pool hall player. Also, he played a young doctor in the Watts episode, Ray. A 15 year old black girl/singer.
shareDuring the ORIGINAL run of Quantum Leap on NBC if the next weeks episode was to be a re-run the leap out teaser annoyingly would be for the re run episode not the next official episode. This is why some episodes have incorrect leap out teasers, these DVD versions retain the original broadcast versions (except for the freaking MUSIC in North America!).
shareThat explains it then. You'd think they would correct it for DVDs...
