I was a loyal viewer of the original Quantum Leap series.
Yes, I know some of the episodes were pushing liberal themes.
Dennis Prager is right. Liberal and Leftist are not synonymous.
There's a revival of the series that's premiering soon.
I hope it is good.
If it is good, I hope it does well.
I hope it isn't Leftist/partisan Democrat. These days, though I expect it will be.
My pessimistic side predicts we can expect the following elements, provided there are enough episodes made:
I predict we will NOT see the show:

My pessimistic side predicts we can expect the following elements, provided there are enough episodes made:
- Climate change alarmism
- Critical race theory (USA is racist, on stolen land, built on slavery, etc.)
- Negative digs at Trump (he is portrayed briefly as a child in the original series) and/or his voters and/or his SCOTUS picks
- Digs at prominent Republicans from the last 30 years
- Promotion of Leftist ideology regarding gender (transgender, genderfluid, non-binary, etc.)
- Affirmation of marriage neutering
- Negativity about private firearm ownership
- Police corruption and brutality
- Pro-union messages
- The "gender wage gap"
- Pro government expansion messages (government health care, for example)
- Greedy landlords and business owners/executives
- "Dreamers" and "undocumented immigrants" with hearts of gold and contributions to the USA
- Negative portrayals of someone concerned about degradation of media/arts/entertainment
I predict we will NOT see the show:
- Making a point of the positive benefits of a conservative, churchgoing married feminine heterosexual "cisgender" stay-at-home mother and masculine heterosexual "cisgender" breadwinning father
- Portraying the perils of underage sex, other than showing screaming protestors when the minor goes for an abortion
- Pointing out the harms of a lack of school choice
- Depicting benefits of homeschooling
- Honorable people being compelled to pay money to unions even though they object to the political spending of the unions
- Portraying the hate from the Left against honorable "Black Conservatives"
- Climate alarmists making dire predictions in the past that have since proven false
UPDATE: 12 episodes in, here are my observations.
