I just found Jennifer Aniston and she was in an episode of Quantum leap! Who knew?
One of Quantum Leap's constant go-tos was movie tributes and/or ripoffs. In "Leaping of the Shrew" (5.3), Quantum Leap did The Blue Lagoon, and they even got Brooke Shields to guest star.
You'd think that wouldn't work, but it was actually pretty darned cute. They also did Coming Home in "Nowhere to Run" (5.4), and it even guest starred an adorable pre-Friends Jennifer Aniston.
But honestly, the way they got around Sam walking around while he was supposed to missing his legs was pretty darned weird.
