Could it BE? A new Olyphant artifact of which we were all unaware??
Did anyone ever see this?? This is definitely NOT quantum Leap, right?

I have seen it before but the quality was terrible. I don't think the pilot was ever taken up. It was on the back of the film Mr and Mrs Smith.

I remember watching this show when it aired back in 1996. I was a HUGE fan of Scott Bakula's work on Quantum Leap, so I tuned in. But alas, I only had eyes for Bakula and never even noticed TO.  In my (pathetic) defense, he was only in one episode and was way too boyish to catch my fancy. The series was short lived, never even making it past the mid-season point. |

I re-discoverd Scott Bakula in 'Men of a Certain Age.' Did you see it? |

I found the whole pilot episode of Mr & Mrs Smith!! This was the first aired screen role that Tim was in. (He made a 15 minute pilot for 77 Sunset Strip a year before but it was never shown). Enjoy!!

Wow, so much cringe. This was back in the days before Peak TV, when few TV shows had real artistic merit or attention to plot. This is almost a 1980s throwback, like watching a bad episode of Magnum PI. The "French" woman speaks English with no discernible accent but instead doesn't use contractions. Horrible, horrible acting there. Did nobody notice she was not doing a French accent?! Maria Bello is good and Scott Bakula is Scott Bakula. I can see why someone thought it could have been an episode of Quantum Leap... but you don't care about these characters. Watching a man and woman beat the crap out of each other... how about no. I can't believe the network actually saw this pilot and said MORE PLEASE. Thankfully Tim was only in the pilot. The gag of changing his look was not going to stay interesting for an entire series. He could have been stuck as a character actor in bad TV. I'm glad he held out for movies that really launched his career instead of doing some soap. It's truly astounding how much TV has changed for the better. But I couldn't resist making this gif:  |
