NieceCadfael has a masters’ in linguistics. You have to get up pretty early to catch her out on anything related.
Definitely some major similarities! (Kids and Time Travel, whodathunk?) Hard to tell if it was influence or coincidence, tho. According to Wiki, Voyagers! inspired the Quantum Leap idea.
Voyagers was meant to be a mix of educational TV with fiction. Edutainment, I think someone called it. It’s only downfall was being in the same time slot as 60 Minutes. It’s second season was scrapped for a short lived TV news magazine show to compete with 60M, which failed terribly.

The Modern Graphics include more buttons on McCoy’s Spock Remote.

My nomination for worst episode – “Squire of Gothos”
Not Q, Jr!
Trelane is Q Jr. and I don’t care if it’s not canon. Peter David wrote it so it is true.
The only quibble I have with “Squire” is the mixed-up history Trelane cites. Otherwise, it was a good episode, and the guest space babe was a really hot blonde! 
Pardon?

I think the new effects look great, and not intrusive at all. They come off as what the original production team would have done if they could.
Cropping for fake widescreen would of course be butchery; where is that happening?
