Soft Focus - Everything you ever wanted to know about Quantum Leap

[@Haseri8]

I love the "oh boy" at each leap

[@thobaben]

Holy shit. You mentioning the opening theme change just unlocked something in my brain.

[@Doomsailor]

Amazing episode! The editing, costumes, special effects and details about the show are all put together beautifully! Fantastic work to you Bouphe and everyone who helped ❤

[@stanleyyelnats297]

Soft focus always feels warm, nostalgic and comfy. Great episode Bouphe! - lumpyjeremyclarkson

[@BogBoyOfficial]

This was such a great video!! Must’ve taken ages to make so I hope ur v proud of it :)

[@Bouphe]

Thanks so much!!! It was worth the effort if people enjoy it :)

[@polyvenom]

Such a treat to see this come up in my subscription feed! Great job Bouphe; I hope Soft Focus brings you as much joy to make as it does for us to watch.

[@Bouphe]

It's one of my favourite things ever 🙂

[@Leptons_]

I'm only a minute in and this is giving me great Captain Disillusion vibes. Very nicely made guys.

[@Bouphe]

The highest compliment!

[@D0A0J1]

Always a good day when another soft focus comes out!

[@xWALNUTxproductions]

Fantastic video Bouphe, well done to you, Alex and Joe for doing an amazing job. Now I want to watch the show 😀

[@MrAzullmoro]

I've really been looking forward to more Soft Focus! Turned out wonderfully, great job Bouphe and Joe and Alex too!

[@unforgiven_91]

as a lifelong Quantum Leap fan, this is a great primer to introduce it to your friends and family. nice work

[@ronaldchase7037]

I loved the new theme, more upbeat, loved this show, my grandmother and I watched this together until she passed away in March of 93, she never did see the series finale, but I was pleased the way it wrapped up

[@GamesPlayingGames]

Oh, boy.... I can remember watching "The Boogieman" episode when it first aired on BBC and spending the entire time with a 'what the actual fuck' expression on my face.

[@sammyfromsydney]

Anyone that does that many wardrobe changes for a half hour KZbin video deserves my sub!!! Doesn't hurt that I love the show.

[@phatpolofish]

Awesome vid Bouphe, these keep getting better and better. Quantum Leap is one of those shows I have fond memories of, not just from the episodes but it was one of those shows as a kid I would sit with my mum and watch, chewing on some popcorn and having my tiny mind blown at each "oh boy" ending. When it ended I was gutted, not only because of the show had finished but because it became such a part of my weekly life, every Tuesday it was Quantum Leap and popcorn with Mum and it was like, what do we do now?.. Luckily we didn't have to wait too long as X-files turned up soon after. I had some weird TV habits as a kid, Quantum Leap, X-files and Star Trek with Mum and Twin Peaks, Rab C Nesbit and Bottom with Dad. If it wasn't for me waking up early on a Sunday to watch Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors I would have had nothing to talk about with my friends in the playground. Thanks for the reminder of some good times Bouphe. Keep these vids going, you put a lot of love into them and it shows, it also looks a lot of fun putting them together.

[@Bouphe]

This is so cute! Glad you and your mum got onto xfiles after at least haha. Thanks for sharing this

[@enjikap1217]

the best youtube series returns!

[@tilaron]

Fantastic! ... maybe we'll get an Everything about Red Dwarf some day!! 👀 ❤

[@Bouphe]

God you are so right let's do that one. If I start now I can get it done by...2024

[@spencerwilkie4218]

A part of me believes he's working in that old folks home in Always Sunny lol But I have faith of the heart, he's is captain Archer

[@jacobstewart4170]

Well, i guess i have to watch every single episode of quantum leap now. Great video as always!

[@SplitMOPP]

I guess this finally explains all the fun costumes you’ve been posting over the past months! Terrific episode with excellent editing. Definitely an entertaining look into a show I never had much familiarity with before now.

[@Oldblues4]

This was one of the most entertaining things I have watched on KZbin for a while thanks, Great work by all.

[@scantconsolation]

Great episode! Loved this show as a kid. Either BBC2 stopped syndicating it by then, or else I blanked out the episode with Sam leaping into a vampire...

[@Aduder999]

I've literally just been binge watching the entire series. On the penultimate episode now where Sam leaps into Elvis *so to speak. Such a good show. First watched it when I was a kid in the 90s. Thanks for a great video. Subbed. Oh and Sam Beckett running is always a funny sight to behold.

[@Bouphe]

I am about ready for another binge myself, glad you enjoyed!!

[@Aduder999]

@@Bouphe I might have to go around again. And they're making new Quantum Leap. ALOT to live up to.

[@TheTartanTaylor]

My head canon is that when Bouphe leaped into a doctor, her patient was Osie. Bouphe: Oh boy! Osie: Oh no!

[@Bouphe]

Osie leaped into a monkey at some point and never leaped back so I just have a sister with ape brain

[@Ranger_Kevin]

Oh my god, this series completely slipped my mind. This just reminded me that I used to watch this years ago when it was on TV with knight rider, mission impossible and the A-Team. What a nostalgia trip. And what a strange show.

[@xCPTxNEMO]

Oh boy, even though I watched this when it was first uploaded. I couldn’t resist leaping back into this, might even be my third time watching it. QL was very much part of my TV viewing in the 90s, so there’s a healthy dose of nostalgia to this. Plus shirtless Scott Bakula is always a bonus. As ever when people are clearly passionate about a subject matter, it shows and just helps the viewer (hey, that’s me) engage with the video. This was a well paced episode, the leaping and costume changes was a neat touch.

[@eDWICHt]

While I'm not a watching streams-kind of guy, I'd like to say that I thoroughly enjoy your content on here, Bouphe. Your enthusiasm and determination really shows, the production is wonderfully charming and so are you as the host. Thanks for the effort you're putting into these!

[@thesteelrodent1796]

Incredible work, Bouphe (and Alex and Joe). Well worth the long wait :) All that work you put into it, and all the costumes, has definitely paid off. When I was little I watched random episodes of Quantum Leap on German TV because it was the only option for us, and I honestly didn't get what it was about then - either cuz I was too young or didn't understand the German dub well enough. Rewatched it (in original English this time) when you first started talking about this project and it does make a bit more sense when you're older, sort of. But even if I didn't get it when I was little, it's one of those shows I've always remembered because it's so different. They dared to try new things and pushed subjects no one else would touch, and that is very rare for American made TV.

[@Bouphe]

I'm glad you took the time to revisit it, a bit tricky to grasp as a kid haha

[@BingoBongoBengo]

The vibe in each of these videos is just ✨ keep it up bouphe!

[@voidtremor6329]

Neat! I never heard of this show until your video but I liked his role star treck before Star fleet was an intergalactic organization.

[@TheeMrShtinker]

I haven't even begun to watch the video! I'm so excited to find this gem today!

[@thargorv2205]

Just finished watching this show about a month ago and I couldn't agree more about it holding up. Great video by the way.

[@orbert83]

This was thoroughly entertaining. I have to say, I’ve seen the finale dozens of times. I think it’s grown on me and I dare say I even like it now

[@Gazereths1234]

Ahh this takes me back, used to love Quantum Leap as a youngster. Great video, loved the costumes, great editing and effects. I must say, you steam a good ham!

[@CaperCafe_]

I had just been thinking the other day about Soft Focus, looking at the lovely Bouphe icon in the KZbin app. I'm so happy you've released another one and definitely a big thanks to Alex and Joe for helping out. Oh boy!!

[@CHEESYgam3r]

I love how you know about this show, its so weird how youve made this video and ive literally been watching this with my fam recently, the timing... lol. Love the video boof

[@TheConicus]

This was excellent! Best video I've seen in ages!

[@maceuk]

Great Video Bouphe. And R.i.p to the legend Dean Stockwell

[@TheeMrShtinker]

How perfect was that? I absolutely did not expect anything that I got to see from this video! I expected a review of Quantum Leap. "You know what, I actually just had to take a moment. the nostalgia took me over so hard that I actually became choked up. When I was a child, I spent a lot of time with my grandparents. I would give lots of things to go back and watch this show with them again. Okay. Sappy sad time over" I'm just blown away on how much time has been invested in this video. the leap, the characters, the OH BOY, the story telling. I appreciate you.

[@Bouphe]

That's adorable oh my gosh. What a beautiful memory, glad you shared that, thank you :)

[@craigknapper]

ahhhh this takes me back

[@lotoreo]

yoooo this was hilarious, well worth the wait! Great video, Bouphe!

[@DriveIn8]

I saw about half the episodes when it used to be on BBC2 at teatime, clearly I need to go back and watch the rest! Great video Bouphe

[@jamesrobin6846]

Hey I finally understand the always sunny episode where they parody this 😅

[@MrDrProfessors]

I can see all the effort that went in to this, it deserves more views!

[@割]

i can tell you’ve put a lot of time into this one! wonderful editing work too bouphe, always love seeing these come out :)

[@Asobitech]

What a lovely trip down memory lane. I loved Quantum Leap when it was on TV. I really should go through the box set and watch all the episodes I may have missed. Excellent choices on your favourite episodes.

[@Petch]

Oh I do love a good video essay and fuck if this isn’t a good video essay! Proper quality work once again!

[@askewcircle339]

Knocked this video out of the park Sophie! Happy to have seen it early on Patreon! Also Shirtless Bakula wowwie wowwie

[@jakeynoobs5388]

Amazing!!1 I used to see Quantum Leap on the TV guide all the time - never watched it and had no idea what it was about - this has made me interested as well as being entertaining to watch! I would defo not want to leap into that Candy-Marie! 😤! I think it would be cool to leap into a director like Edgar Wright or Sam Raimi and you're trying to make a popular film the same as it was, but stop yourself changing things! Or just be Rich Evans for a day! Great work Bouphe, Alex the best editor, and Joe!✨

[@Bouphe]

Haha!!! Movie director would be excellent right?! You'd be fab!

[@Kerbsurfer]

Utterly fantastic episode! Well done to everyone involved! I absolutely loved Quantum Leap when it aired. I watched most of them and recall enjoying the love story between Sam and the other leaper most of all. It was very intense. I also recall watching the final episode and having absolutely no idea what was going on because I was like 14 and dumb as fuck. Come to think of it, I probably still wouldn't understand it.

[@Darth_Baggins]

This was wonderful, Bouphe. I've never seen "Quantum Leap," but now I want to. Big thanks to you, Alex, and Joe for all the hard work that clearly went into this video! It's kind of funny knowing that both leads went on to space-faring projects in the early 2000s. It took me a bit to realize that Al was Cavil/Cylon #1, though - Dean Stockwell had quite the acting range, it seems. If you need more Scott Bakula in your life and haven't watched "Chuck," I highly recommend it (even though he was only in a handful of episodes). Actually, a lot of big names including Carrie-Anne Moss, Linda Hamilton, Tony Todd, and Timothy Dalton make appearances throughout the series, so there's probably a bit of Hollywood in it to fit everyone's tastes.

[@brokuify]

This was fantastically made bouphe!! Once again, lovin' the soft focus series. Never expected one on quantum leap but it was well done especially with you leaping as well! Hope you're doing well boupheLove boupheWave

[@zacharycampbell4631]

I absolutely loved this show growing up

[@artmonkeys]

Yes! Just 100% yes. Your Soft Focus logo, your presentation, and covering one of my favorite shows; I love you and this episode. Great work, Bouphe!

[@VdoPt0r]

Loved this. Well done Bouphe!

[@ThePodPeople]

The books are also quite good. Looking forward to the remake being made.

[@thalandor46]

I really appreciate this, at the very least because I feel like so many Quantum Leap references have gone over my head over the years. Now I will understand, and chuckle softly in appreciation!

[@TheKentar]

Funny, entertaining, and informative - An absolute masterpiece. It astounds me how much time and effort must have gone into every second of the video, from the costumes to scripting to gathering and compiling that mountain load of clips. All the assets and editing made for a particularly unique and wondrous viewing experience. Amazing work Bouphe, Alex, and Joe.

[@deneigh9445]

I have no idea anything about this show Quantum Leap but I recognize the main guy from that saga in Star Trek. Ugh that one. God I love sci fi. I think I've instantly fallen in love with your channel.

[@5Amigos32]

These always feel so nostalgic even for things I've never seen. Great job Bouphe!

[@outdat3dpanda363]

Fantastic work Bouphe , I need to rewatch QL now ❤️💙

[@hatskeleton635]

Wooo more soft focus. It's become one of my most anticipated series on YT by this point.

[@BaconAndFries75]

Great epsiode! I used to watch Quantum Leap all the time with my Dad! Still one of my favourite shows. This has made me nostalgic to rewatch it all. I definitely remember feeling the same about the final as you though.

[@lssjbrogeta]

This was awesome, loved all the fun costume changes and editing.

[@imwyrmfood9925]

Holy crap this was excellent Bouphe.

[@rotobracca]

exactly what I needed to improve my day, Scott Bakula!.. (narrated in detail, by Bouphe) love the editing and costume changes, amazing video as always! now im going to watch all of quantum leap....

[@stixx3356]

Another fantastic video, well done to everyone envolved!

[@JamesDittoOG]

Good stuff. They do in fact explain what is making himself leap though. The final episode explains it all. He also did fix Al's past once he understood everything in the last episode.

[@Bouphe]

Maybe I wasn't understanding enough 😅 eyes too full of tears!

[@JamesDittoOG]

@@Bouphe It was a good ending. The last line is, "Sam never returned to his own time." Basically, once he realised he was in control of the leaps, he spent the rest of his existence, to this point anyway, they are still talking about a revival of the show, to correct the wrongs. It's fitting that it "ends" with fixing Al's timeline and then starts his new journey and beyond.

[@allentaylor3572]

Wow! That was Amazing. Well done. Thoroughly enjoy this.

[@nathant1428]

I’ve never seen this show, only references in other shows, but this video really made me want to give it a go! It was really well written and presented, informative and entertaining! Thanks Bouphe!

[@thevecnathe8376]

Amazing as always! The costumes just get better each leap. Love it!

[@PierceArner]

Every time I see a new Soft Focus alert, I know it's about to be a wonderful day!

[@rich_in_paradise]

Awesome video Bouphe! I can't believe you got your own Quantum Leap effect - it's spot on. I am sadly old enough to remember QL when it was on originally. Thought it was pretty cheesy and a bit formulaic at the time, but this makes me want to revisit it. I didn't watch the later seasons and managed to avoid finding out how it ended until now. I think realistically I'm never going to watch 97 episodes now, so thanks for clearing that up (as much as such a weird plot can be) :)

[@Oskar272]

Just over the top quality both in editing and story well worth the production time 😄

[@lordmada1122]

This was absolutly brilliant! i'm totaly sold on this show now it really seems like some of the best star trek episodes with a star trek captain at the helm to boot

[@Bouphe]

It's super cool!! Definitely recommend giving it a go and seeing if you like it

Another great episode for the books! Amazing work Bouphe :D
