Entanglement
This version of Quantum Leap is way better than the original and it's not even close..
ANAHEIM, Calif. When it was announced that 1990s series Quantum Leap, which ran for five seasons on NBC, would be rebooted, expectations were high. The original series, while ratings challenged, was a beloved cult favorite.
Still, it looks like the reboot which airs its season 1 finale on April 3 and was quickly renewed for a second season has more than met the challenge.
I dont like reboot or any of these terms, said executive producer Dean Georgaris on March 25 at the shows panel at WonderCon in Anaheim, Calif. 2022 needs Quantum Leap. Thats why its back. ...

Dave Davies is an excellent guest host on Fresh Air and David Bianculli is very good too..
"Schmigadoon!" streams on Apple TV+. It stars Cecily Strong and Keegan-Michael Key as a couple who try to repair their relationship by taking a hike in the woods. They get lost, cross over a bridge and suddenly find themselves in a small town called Schmigadoon, which looks like a stage or movie set from the early 20th century. The women are wearing prairie dresses with long petticoats, and the men are dressed like they're in a barbershop quartet. It turns out that in this town, life is a musical. People sing their feelings and dance, too...

Gary Cole and Katrina Law have been nice additions in my opinion.
Ultimately there are so many of these cop procedurals they need to be character driven. That's why I changed my tune about FBI International. Really nice chemistry on that show.

Ron DeSantis' $100m for Florida "Private Army" Raises Questions
BY JAMES BICKERTON ON 3/10/23 AT 6:28 AM EST
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is requesting $98 million in funding this year to boost the Florida State Guard, which one critic has branded "a private army", according to local network News 7.
DeSantis revived the Florida State Guard (which was originally created for home defense during World War II) in 2022, and is now seeking to expand it from 400 soldiers to 1,500, saying it is needed to help with emergency response measures and to back up the Florida National Guard.
Unlike the Florida National Guard, which can be called up by the President, the State Guard cannot..
However, the move proved controversial with Florida Democrats, with state Senator Annette Taddeo accusing DeSantis of establishing a "vigilante militia" under his command. Representative Charlie Crist went even further, comparing the plan to a "handpicked secret police." ...
