I would love to see a Crossover marriage, which to my knowledge there’s never been. Potential: _Dr. Luka_ goes back to Africa where he meets a British humanitarian- _Saffron_ (of _Ab-Fab_ fame). Patsy attempts to seduce him at the wedding but ends up having to go through methodone therapy under the guidance of intern Jane (Sara Gilbert), who is also juggling a homeless woman from Illinois- a delusional writer named Roseanne Connor who insists that Jane is her daughter and who is terrified of another patient in for steroid abuse and played by Tom Arnold. Meanwhile Mitch & Mickey stop by on their way to a gig because Mitch is having a nervous breakdown and Mickey wants to sell her husband’s new catheter product line, and while there David St. Hubbins drops in to be dried out and meets Patsy, with whom he had a gay affair when she was a man and he was a woman back in the 70s… nah, that’s a bit much. Take out Tom Arnold. ---

[QUOTE=Art Vandelay, Architect] I have a story plotted out, but only half-written, featuring a crossover between “Dr Who” and “the Avengers.” Synopsis: the Doctor (#4) & Romana investigate a time disturbance originating from swinging 1960s London. At the same time, Steed & Mrs. Emma Peel are investigating the disappearance of several prominent politicians. Both problems are caused by the Master using a time tunnel in an elaborate scheme. Steed & Romana get sucked through the tunnel to another planet, leaving the Doctor & Emma to chase after them in the TARDIS. Did you you say “Time Tunnel”? That smell of a cross-over with another series. Interesting. Also, the concept of a cross-over between has actually been published! Amazing. I read it in a collection of short stories called “More Short Trips” . ISBN: 0 563 55565 3 The story it’s self was called “Femme Fatale”, by Paul Magrs, it stared the 8th doctor, Sam, and Andy Worhl and I thought it was disjointed and disturbing. That’s not to say that the idea is a bad one. You can find **alot** of spoilers for all things Who at [the Doctor Who Reference Guide](http://www.drwhoguide.com/who.htm) . ---

Terry Nation always wanted to do a Doctor Who/ Blake’s 7 crossover , but the BBC wouldn’t let him. I always wanted to see Sam Beckett leap into Quinn Mallory. You could call the episdode _Quantum Slide_. ---

•Rambo vs. Terminator “Judgement Day cannot be prevented…only postponed.” _“NOTHING IS FATED!”_ Oh, yeah, like you _wouldn’t_ be tempted to watch that one. 😃 •Bubblegum Crisis/Ghost in the Shell This one might work better as an “amalgam” rather than a straight “crossover.” •Ennis’ _Preacher_/Any of those “wholesome christian” shows, like “Touched by an Angel” or “Seventh Heaven.” Guest starring Clint Eastwood as the Saint of Killers. ---

Literary crossover: Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys meet Alfred Hitchcock’s Three Investigators. A slightly younger set: Encyclopedia Brown (and Sally Kimball) and the McGurk Organization. Tim Hunter and Sabrina join Hogwarts. ---

I think that Jay & Silent Bob as characters in a Merchant/Ivory film would be an interesting crossover. ---

> [@Askia](#): > > Tim Hunter and Sabrina join Hogwarts. Geez. I dunno - Tim would completely marginalize Harry in about five seconds. He’s got a “worse” background, and yet he’s more powerful. 😉 Then again, it has possibilities. Tim showing up Potter in everything, including Quidditch, driving Harry into an insane, murderous rage… ---

I’d like to see how Ignatius J. Reilly, of _A Confederacy of Dunces,_ would get along with the characters in _Tales of the City_. (Plot point: His faulty heart valve, along with San Francisco’s hilly terrain, leads Ignatius to become the city’s first Segway-based hot dog vendor. His quirky, querulous character makes him a grassroots advocate for the differently-abled, meaning that Ignatius must deal for the first time in his life with people actually liking him.) ---

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles meet Essense of Emeril “The first step in making turtle soup is to remove the mask, belt and weapons. These can really sully the flavor of the soup” This may be a bit dated, but I always thought a Superfriends vs. The Watchmen would be great. Imagine the Wonder Twins vs. Rorschach “Wondertwin powers, aciti…” “Do it again, broken arm. Not kidding” Or Superman vs. Dr. Manhattan “Man of Steel? How about Man of Gold, Man of Iron, Man of Manganese” But the best team up of all would be Lexx and Star Trek: Voyager well at least the meeting of Zev and 7 and 9 :eek: [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/crossovers-youd-like-to-see/122527.md?page=3) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/crossovers-youd-like-to-see/122527.md?page=5)
