Unearthed Quantum Leap convention footage shows vintage Bakula and one smug Doogie Howser

While compiling our list of fan campaigns that saved TV shows, we stumbled across a group of Quantum Leap fanatics known as "The Leapers." And they ruled.

These group of body jumping fans hosted a set of Quantum Leap conventions so amazing, they even got the show's wardrobe to let them borrow the clothes for a fashion show. In this video from a 1993 convention you'll see a marvelous cameos from Neil Patrick Harris, Jason Priestly (coupled by a girl who is basically 15-year-old me), Scott Bakula and more!
