IDK thought that’d be a cool concept, like some guy is trying to change the past, but he can’t get to the exact date he needs to, and so has to overshoot to ensure he doesn’t pass it and has to deal with whatever time he shows up in.

    Isn’t this Quantum Leap (or at least the reboot, I don’t really remember the original)…

    Thar be spoilers…

    Quantum Leap couldn’t get exactly where they needed to in one shot. They had to kind of slingshot-effect around other places in time to get to where they needed…sorta like slingshotting around planets to go faster in space.

      I have no idea about a reboot, but in Quantum Leap he has absolutely no control over the time periods he lept into.
