Abstract Cet article analyse la série Quantum Leap (NBC, 1989-1993) dans une perspective culturelle, en se concentrant sur les représentations qu’elle propose des identités et des rapports de genre et de race. Il s’agit notamment de mettre en lumière la profonde ambivalence idéologique du portrait qu’elle brosse de la masculinité blanche, en la replaçant dans son contexte socio-historique de production, marqué notamment par plusieurs décennies de mouvements contestataires. Après s’être penché sur les épisodes dans lesquels le héros change de genre et/ou de race, particulièrement représentatifs des tensions idéologiques qui traversent cette production télévisuelle, l’article met notamment en lumière les effets contradictoires de la mobilisation d’une rhétorique de la crise de la masculinité blanche, renforcés ici par la nature « semi-feuilletonnante formulaire » de la série. This article examines Quantum Leap (NBC, 1989-1993) from a cultural perspective, focusing on its representations of gender and race identities and relations. The aim is to highlight the profound ideological ambivalence in the way the series represents white masculinity, through analysis of gender-bending plotlines and by placing it in the socio-historical context of its production, which occurred at a pivotal moment in the decades-long development of contemporary identity politics. After examining the episodes in which the hero changes gender and/or race, which are particularly representative of the ideological tensions that run through this TV show, the article highlights the ambivalent and contradictory effects of the show’s rhetoric on the crisis of white masculinity, which is reinforced here by the “semi-serialized, formulaic structure” of the series.
