1. They must be currently running
2. They must be on the same network

I think a _Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D._/_Once Upon A Time_ crossover would work-A group that investigates strange goings on in a town full of strange goings on. Over on CBS I’d like to see an _Elementary_/_Mentalist_ meeting of the minds.

_NCIS Los Angeles_ needs help solving a case involving advanced physics. They contact \*Big Bang Theory \*, especially Sheldon Cooper. He gives them advice and his eidetic memory proves key to them solving the case. At the close, G walks over to his supervisor’s desk and says “Hetty” (knock knock knock), “Hetty” (knock knock knock), “Hetty” (knock knock knock)…

Can’t think of any offhand but Felicia Day really needs to guest star on The Big Bang Theory.

We’re running out of time for Sara Michelle Gellar and Alyson Hannigan to meet up on a **Crazy Ones** / **How I Met Your Mother** crossover, with bonus points if Robin Williams can hear the narrator.

I’ve said this before (in a thread about crossovers that can only end in violence) but I’d like a NCIS (orginal flavor)/ Mentalist crossover.

Once Upon a Time / Lost

(although I get the feeling Once Upon a Time is headed in that direction anyway.)

eta: Sorry … I know I violated #2, but it’s still an interesting thought.

Supernatural/Sleepy Hollow. I’d love to see how the Winchesters would handle the Headless Horseman/Death. “Wait, you think you’re Death? I knew Death. Death was a friend of mine. Horseman, you’re no Death.”

I would had like to have seen the cancelled Law & Order crossover that involved the then three franchises (Law & Order, L&O:Special Victims Unit and L&O: Criminal Intent) about terrorist acts in New York. Supposedly planned for the 2001-2002 season, then an actual one happened.

Current one, “Psych” and "The Mentalist, " maybe throw in “Elementary” in there.

Unfortunately, “Psych” is from another network.

Well, Richard Belzer as “Det. John Munch” crossovered several networks.

However, I remembered another reason why it can’t happen. In “Psych,” “The Mentalist” is a [TV show.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAarpqbRHhs)
