I believe this to be the best episode in the entire series! <3 I cry each time I see it...give it a rewatch every couple of years or so. Why aren't there more shows like this today (other than the fact that Hollyweird has gone into the Dunny as of late, and has lost all credibility (and common sense))? ;o)

As it is Part 2 of "The Leap Home", of course it's recommended to watch Part 1 just prior. :o) Enjoy!!

Good episode with a great ending. No spoiler here but gee whiz!!!

One of the most realistic depictions of the Vietnam war ever put to film. Unquestionably the most realistic depiction of US special forces there I've ever seen. Obviously, I mean that minus the time travel stuff. They must have had some vets as advisors who were very fresh with their knowledge. The attention to detail is startling. This is an odd contrast to the episode on Oswald, because that seemed to be simple Warren Commission apologist nonsense pretending to know more about subject than it did. A number of those involved in that one later came out and said they regretted it, but The Leap Home: Part 2 is extremely weird for TV to pull off and reminds me a bit of a few of the early episodes of Airwolf that had a lot more insight into the field of espionage and covert operations than TV shows had ever depicted. I guess Bellisario was an odd duck for his time.
