Quantum Leap - Nice Box, No Extras

Posted by David Lambert

Good morning. In our previous Quantum Leap - Season 1 news items (here and here), we kept telling you we would come back and let you know what the extras were on this set, when the studio announced them.

The official final spec sheet was obtained by us yesterday, and according to it there aren't any extras. Just the 9 hours that make up the first season, spread across two dual-sided DVDs, with a menu system that features the voice of co-creator Deborah Pratt as "Ziggy" from the show. Sorry to break that to you...we also were hoping for some supplements.

But we won't send you away empty-handed. Universal continues their tradition lately of providing spiffy covers for their new TV-to-DVD releases, and for Quantum Leap they're going holographic. The cover art and we've shown you will be enhanced with a holographic effect, to make it seem as if Sam is "leaping" off the box and into your living room.

Here is an image of a two-page ad that will appear soon in trade magazines, hyping this release to the stores. Note that the "cool holographic packaging" is a major selling point:
