I DIDNT KNOW YOU WERE A QUANTUM LEAP FAN!?!?!?!?! Have you ever drawn any fanart you're willing to share? I've been following you for over a year because of death note, but i didn't know you also knew my best friend Sam Beckett!
Oh DUDE! I had an intense Quantum Leap moment in college. I still have Quantum Leap novels, a QL sweatshirt from my friend @allisonpregler , a QL coffee cup with Sam on it, and SEVERAL sam/al fics on my ao3. I haven’t drawn fanart but if you go in my quantum leap tag there’s definitely fanart there. Oh also:
Tumblr media
Sam Beckett fanart I commissioned at my first comic con with adult money. he’s on my bedroom wall making sure i have good dreams.

How I would fix Dr Who (revisited)
While I am sure there are folks that love the Doctor Who show and the direction it has taken under Chibnal, I know there are others who are not satisfied with certain developments. Ever since the end of Matt Smith's run there have been issues with the continuity of the series: - The expansion of The Doctor's regenerations was first explained via a "time lord energy infusion" in Town of Christmas, but was later revealed to be an aspect of the Timeless Child. - The swapping of sex/gender was first done with the Master and later explored with the Doctor. - Letting go of a Time Lord's power was explored in Human Nature and later in Uptopia, but revisited as being a "female presenting" quality later. - The Bi-Generation creating two time lords.
A lot of this new canon has been... not easy to absorb. And I'm not going to say there's any connection to ratings or audience scores, but as someone who is more interested in the science fiction aspect of the show, I think there is enough of the new canon to play with to fit in with the long-running series canon.
Make The Doctor a distinct being separate from The Timeless Child. - This is the main one, and could be done a couple of different ways. My previous theory was to make The Timeless Child the Time Vortex at the heart of the TARDIS (which explains why it is different from other TARDIS). This would explain the leeching of memories and power to other individuals as well. - Another way to do this would be to have The Doctor either be a bi-generation from The Timeless Child, or perhaps be the son of The Timeless Child who inherited some memories. There are options.
Restore the Regeneration Limit and explain how it was bypassed. - The previous explanation is that The Doctor is the first Time Lord and therefore has endless regenerations. This never felt right. The Doctor being a Time Lord whose uniqueness comes from their decisions, the promise to be "The Doctor" rather than their particular history is the key to the character. - You could do another bi-generation backstory into The Doctor's past, and that part of The Doctor has been dormant, sleeping aboard the TARDIS for near a thousand years (my personal choice would be the regeneration from 2nd to 3rd Doctor). - Then you would have to explain that The Doctor who has been adventuring has been part of The Doctor, but a being who got mixed up with The Timeless Child and is therefore confused. Then explain that the reason for the regeneration limit being bypassed is because of the TARDIS - so many Doctors regenerate in the TARDIS and this is shown to have led to many explosions of energy which were not present in earlier regenerations because this version of The Doctor is growing unstable. - Time Lords are not meant to live more than 12 regenerations, because the energy in their bodies becomes more than they can handle, like a dying star they either go supernova or become dwarf stars.
Kill off the current version of The Doctor and bring in "The Original" - This could be a series-long arc involving The Valeyard - with the "current Doctor" being the Valeyard and "The Original" questing to stop them, but would end up with The Doctor dying and creating their grave on Trenzalore that is eventually visited by 11 and Clara. - The "original" Doctor would then continue the adventures, absorbing all the memories of their alternate selves - and resume the regeneration limit from 3 (a new 3, not Pertwee) and then regenerating into 4.
Anyways, that's how I'd rework Doctor Who if it was up to me. But it's not, so whatever.
#Doctor who#tardis#seriously though I stopped watching because I hated how mean 12 was to Danny Pink#Like there was no reason to be that rude to your companions love interest#I just could not jive with Capaldi and could not bring myself to go back to the show#kept up with the lore and the drama and felt satisfied I stayed away#but can we stop race-swapping people please#I mean I guess its fine when you consider alternate realities but that was never Doctor Whos thing#Like time travel is fine and all and they really haven't done enough fun back to the future or quantum leap stuff about fixing timelines#but as part of a larger trend I just think race swapping historical figures is lame#Now fictional characters is fine and dandy#But like if Doctor Who went on an adventure with Sun Wukong I wouldnt want the Monkey King played by a scotsman#So its just weird to see Isaac Newton played by Nathaniel Curtis#And then to have the showrunner attack fans as racists#Like he was the one who changed the race of the person showing he was the one with the problem in the first place#this is my problem with folks who cry racism or sexism or shout at fans for not embracing changes#they're the ones who made the change from the source materials so doesn't that mean they are the ones with the problem#like don't say its the fans fault for not accepting the changes you make blame yourselves for not getting it right#but again that's just the way I see things#not a shipping post#yeah I'm done talking about doctor who#I bloody stopped watching the show 9 years ago why do I even care

This may throw people for a loop, but I think this is the closest to having a crossover between Doctor Who, and another series I’ve enjoyed.
What if Clara’s Trip into the Doctor’s Timeline was like Quantum Leap?
I know that sounds bugnuts, but at least hear me out before you start pulling the pitchforks and 16th-Century Flame Torches.
If anyone has watched Quantum Leap before know the premise, so you may skip this part if you’re familiar:
In Short: A human earth-bound physicist worked on a project back in the 80s that’s name changed after the events, but once it started, Project: Quantum Leap was born. Dr. Samuel Beckett (1953- ???) had a theory involving quantum physics and time travel, believing that one could time travel within their own lifetime.
He would be the first (Earth) Time Traveler to succeed where others might have failed (like Project: Tic-Toc in the 1960s [See: The Time Tunnel]). And it would work due to the sheer time and effort. However, the government doesn’t want tests, they want results, or they’ll pull funding. By that time, Dr. Beckett consults his close friend Al Calavichi, a Admiral who fought in Vietnam and went M.I.A, due to events that happened during that time (captured, but still alive).
So, pressured to lose funding, Dr. Beckett prematurely stepped into the quantum accelerator, and vanished… into the past.
It worked, but he suffered from partial amnesia (The Swiss-Cheese Effect, as some have called the condition) and he faced mirror images that were not his own. However, Dr. Beckett had help from his friend Al, where he made contact with him as a neurological hologram. Sam continues to travel within his own lifetime (and a bit before thanks to his family tree) where he puts things right that once were wrong.
Dr. Beckett hasn’t been seen since 1998 and the project probably closed down in 2001.
Later, Quantum Leap would be restarted thanks to the efforts of Dr. Ben Song in 2022/23? (Basically they continued the series, claiming it was to continue where the series last left off)
Anyways, that’s the basic premise of the series, Quantum Leap
I’m giving the same warning, If anyone has watched Doctor Who before, know the premise, so you may skip this part if you’re familiar:
In Short: The premise follows The Doctor, an ancient alien who travels in spacetime, disguised as a Police Box front the 1960s (when it isn’t an actual Police Box). The Doctor is part of a race called Gallifreyian (though that’s technically) and they’re titled as Time Lord, as they have mastery over time and space. This race of beings can outlive humans, some going as far as live to be thousands of years old. The Doctor’s vehicle, dubbed TARDIS (Time And Relative Dimension in Space) allows him to travel far distances in space-time.
Most of the time, he fixes things with a sonic screwdriver (a handy tool for the traveling madman), and sometimes he doesn’t. He has different faces across all of his life, as one of the things that gives the Time Lords and Ladys their longevity, is the ability to regenerate from injury and/or near death. When they die, or come close to it, their bodies can burn and rebuild every cell in their bodies (which includes the cells that makes up the shape and structure of their bodies).
Doctor Who has been active since 1963, and took a break in 1989, with a brief movie in 1995.
So, what’s the theory?
What if Clara was leaping into the lives of the Doctor’s companions, putting things right that were wrong by the Collective Intelligence, who went back in time to cause havoc in all of The Doctor’s regenerations?
It would be interesting since the whole idea was that Clara was like that way (from previous episodes, “Asylum of the Daleks”, and “The Snowmen”) where she ends up traveling through time, similar to the Quantum Accelerator that Dr. Beckett used.
At least, that’s my theory and idea, and it would explain why some companions do what they do.

okay but the THING about mr jean-pierre dorléac going into a blind rage over twitter babygirlifying al calavicci………
he was mutuals with everyone. all of gay quantum leap twitter. almost all of us. at the very least following us. we all post about al being gay on the regular and call out his queerness and the specific way he dresses. we’ve all tweeted it at least once. and he’s even said he finds it nice that we feel connected to his work! and he’s gay himself!
but man. oh man. poor charley comes along. charley shows up. charley is there for maybe a single week. chaos ensues. this man calls charley an asshole. this man tweets consecutively nonstop for 48 hours about how al is ABSOLUTELY NOT GAY!!!!!!!!1!! allison pregler steps in. goes “jean-pierre. stop this! this isn’t you!” this dude does not LISTEN
