NCIS: New Orleans to Stage Quantum Leap Reunion

NCIS: New Orleans is reuniting Scott Bakula with Quantum Leap co-star Dean Stockwell, Entertainment Weekly reports.

Stockwell will play Tom Hamilton, a proud retired cop who is approached by the investigators about a 40-year-old murder, but arrogantly pushes back against the team. He also happens to be the father of recurring character Councilman Douglas Hamilton (Steven Weber).

The best SNL cast members of all time

"We did it!" executive producer Gary Glasberg said. "We found an opportunity for the tremendously talented Dean Stockwell to reunite on screen with Scott Bakula. What a treat for November sweeps. We are thrilled to have him join us for some Thanksgiving fun and intrigue in NOLA."

NCIS: New Orleans airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on CBS.
