Discussing the theory might make a good new thread.

Adventure Time has some great musically themed episodes. So we need to see Finn & Jake team up with the guys from Metalocalypse to do battle with the Lich.

So was DS9.  
Hey, does that mean a DS9/Baywatch crossover would only violate one rule? Mmm… Dax in a bikini…

_Misfits_ and \* Made in Chelsea\* (both on E4, although a very slight fudge as _Misfits_ just had its finale a week or so ago).
