a tv show, probably on a PBS type channel in the 90s-00s, that was essentially Quantum Leap but starring two young teens, a boy and a girl. It was live action. In the show, I remember they would meet in a basement maybe? And just like in Quantum Leap, they would go back in time, one or the other iirc, and inhabit people's bodies, usually famous people, in order to learn and change events. It was like quantum leap for kids. I remember watching this show very occasionally as a kid, and I think it would play on the same station that had Redwall the cartoon and Wishbone, so probably a PBS type affiliate. For anyone familiar with Wishbone, I am NOT getting the two mixed up- though the premise is similar. I cannot find ANYTHING about this show online and it's been bugging me for years. Please help me identify it! I think that possibly shadows had something to do with the show? Maybe how they traveled into people? Idk
