Scott Bakula Reflects on 'Quantum Leap,' Talks 'Only Murders in the Building' Shout-Outs (Exclusive)

Bakula starred as Dr. Sam Beckett on 'Quantum Leap' from 1989 to 1993.

The 69-year-old actor invited Quantum Leap fans to watch a performance of his off-Broadway musical, The Connector, in New York City, and afterwards he reflected with ET on the TV series' success both during and after it aired. The nearly two-hour musical, based on Jonathan Marc Sherman's book of the same name, is set in the late 1990s "amid a rapidly changing media landscape." Bakula portrays a magazine editor, and the musical centers around a rising journalist whose ambition forces him to confront how far he'll go for the ultimate scoop.
