ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: We know Ben started leaping to save Addison.

That’s why people watchQuantum Leap.

Ben kisses Addison to change the start of their relationship, and he leaps.
Ziggy was used against the team.
Can they trust the system moving forward?
It was a live feed for the people in the future to know what’s going on.
Now, they can use Ziggy in its full force.
Ian and Jen [Nanrisa Lee] have helped Ben on a case as holograms a few times.
Any plans for more instances where people sub in for Addison more next season?
There’s more opportunities going into season 2 for people to be in the imaging chamber more regularly.
We can start to give air to more of these other characters as we flush them out.
What can you say about where Ben goes from here?
Now, he’s just lost, much like Sam Beckett was.
Is there a future for Janice on the show?
Right now she isn’t in the first six episodes.
It’s very possible that we’ll bring her back because we love Georgina Reilly.
But if there’s an organic way to bring her back, we’d love to.
What can you share about other ways the original show will be incorporated?
It’s a continuation of the story.
Our major concern is not incorporating in a way that’s disrespectful to the show.
It’s a balancing act for us.
