Ben and his team have run out of time. NBC has cancelled Quantum Leap,<\/em> so viewers won\u2019t be seeing a third season. The second season of 13 episodes finished airing in February.<\/p>\n

A sci-fi series<\/a>, the Quantum Leap<\/em> TV show is a sequel to the 1989-93 series of the same name. This incarnation stars Raymond Lee, Caitlin Bassett, Ernie Hudson, Mason Alexander Park, Nanrisa Lee, Eliza Taylor, and Peter Gadiot. Led by physicist Ben Song (Lee), a new team has been assembled to restart the Quantum Leap project. When Ben makes an unauthorized leap into the past, the team is left behind to solve the mystery of why he did it. At Ben\u2019s side throughout his leaps is Addison (Bassett), who app<\/a>ears in the form of a hologram only Ben can see and hear. At the helm of the highly confidential operation is career military man Herbert \u201cMagic\u201d Williams (Hudson). The rest of the team includes Ian Wright (Park) and Jenn Chou (Lee). As Ben leaps from life to life, putting right what once went wrong, the team works to solve the mysteries of his leaps and bring him home before Ben is potentially lost forever.<\/em> <\/span><\/p>\n

Airing on Wednesday nights, the second season of Quantum Leap<\/em> averaged a 0.25 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.41 million viewers. Compared to season one, that\u2019s down by 25% in the demo and down by 3% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (includes DVR playback through 3:00 AM). It\u2019s one of NBC\u2019s lowest-rated series of the season.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we got the early renewal for season two, we knew we were not going to end it on a cliffhanger,\u201d co-showrunner Dean Georgaris told Deadline<\/a>\u00a0earlier this year. \u201cWe were going to end it on the first scene from season three, and we\u2019re going to end it with the two characters together, but in a way that you never expected. And that sort of says to the audience, \u2018look at all the great places we can go.\u2019 So if it feels like a completion for audiences, that\u2019s wonderful. It is a completion of part of the journey, but I think for us, it serves as the launch for the rest of the journey.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lee and Bassett posted about the cancellation via Instagram.<\/p>\n
