Memphis Melody - July 3, 1954

It's playing on my TV right now and I cannot look at it. I don't even wanna listen. Like most music-centred episodes of anything, it's wrong, quirky, embarrassing, and simply sad.

A lot of good Quantum Leap episodes, but not this one. I mean I've seen some bad ones recently, but none so bad that I had to come to the computer and speak my mind on IMDB.

I give it 2 stars because at least they showed up for work.

I will share another thing I have noticed about any entertainment where our protagonists travels back in time, or are natively living in a past time -- like Murdoch Mysteries or MASH, for example: They are always righteous, sanctimonious, and have a "superior" moral worldview. It's a very easy gimmick to work with.

What I mean is that everybody seems to think, even today, that in the past people were less moral, and in the future we become more moral. I have never heard a real-life argument that says this is how the way people proceed through time.

Just something to think about.

Good. It just ended.
