(edit)
Scott appeared in the musical Romance / Romance from 1988 to 1989.
(edit)
While starring in Quantum Leap, Scott appeared in 1 The More You Know public service announcement for NBC. His topic was a teacher tribute.
(edit)

(edit)
He appears on the Sandra Boynton's children's CD Philadelphia Chickens, on which he sings "Pig Island". The CD is labeled as being "For all ages except 43."

Scott Bakula: (Describing his character Jonathon Archer on Star Trek Enterprise) My guy grew up in the system. His dad was an engineer in the warp-drive project. And worked on developing the warp five engine. So Archer's kind of a brat of the space program. He's a little bit brash. He's a little bit in people's faces. He doesn't like being told what to do per se. He's a great captain, I think. But he's going to make some mistakes. He's very human.
(edit)
Scott Bakula: We really do have a good time. We are fortunate to have that, You never know in any given situation who you're going to be cast with.
(edit)
Scott Bakula: Quantum Leap came across my agent's desk and then to me, I liked the material so much I just said, 'Let's do it!' Since then, the worry has always been, 'Will NBC give us enough time to find an audience?' They've been great about it. They hung in there with us last year. They renewed us. We didn't jump out of the gate like crazy this year. What we've done, very slowly and gradually, is build a pretty solid audience for NBC in our Wednesday at 10:00 slot. My past experience has always been not getting support from our network. That's not a problem here.
(edit)
Scott Bakula: You know, Quantum was always like a marathon, You just tried to get to the end of it... standing! I'm not sure how this is going to be. I've had much more time off already than I had in four and a half years on Quantum. So I don't know how I'm going to feel. I'm not planning anything, but the doors are open - my production company is still moving ahead, and my agency is proceeding like I'm available for work, but at this point in time it's really hard to get a sense of whether there will be the time. We're doing 26 episodes, while I've only done 22 [on Quantum Leap]. That extra month is a lot. And we're not going to have much of a break - we only had a week off between the pilot and starting the episodes. So I don't know about this year.
(edit)
Scott Bakula: Brannon Braga and Rick Berman were really great about setting this character up, and explaining him to me, selling him to me. They pretty much delivered on that, which doesn't always happen. You know, sometimes you'll be told 'Well, it's gonna be this, this and this,' and you get to the page and it's not there at all and then you're forced to kind of - find it. But they've done a good job of making him pretty dynamic and interesting and with a lot of room to grow! Over the long haul, when you're faced with a series that's hopefully going to run for a while, it means you're not stuck in a corner somewhere with a character you're trying to invent fun things for to do.
