- Quantum Leap (1989-1993) Created by Donald P. Bellasario, Quantum Leap follows a brilliant scientist (Golden Globe winner Scott Bakula) whose time-travel experiment goes a little “ka ka” and sends him on a journey with no discernible end, that forces him to right the wrongs of the past by, essentially, possessing different people from different time periods one “leap” at a time.
- The Twilight Zone - Season 3, Episode 15 (1961) Speaking of great sci-fi TV shows, decades before Quantum Leap, Dean Stockwell got to see what time travel via body swapping was like while appearing on creator and narrator Rod Serling’s highly influential anthology series that ran on CBS from 1959 to 1964.
- Married To The Mob (1988) Almost immediately after he secured his role in the Quantum Leap cast, Dean Stockwell became an Academy Award nominated actor for this criminally funny romantic-comedy classic from the late Jonathan Demme, who would later direct The Silence of the Lambs.
- Paris, Texas (1984) Another one of Dean Stockwell’s most acclaimed films is Paris, Texas, in which he also plays a far more likable character. He stars as Walt Henderson, who finds his amnesiac brother Travis (the late Harry Dean Stanton) after he mysteriously disappeared four years later, giving him the chance to reconnect with his young son (Hunter Carson) and his estranged wife (Natassja Kinski).
