I’d like to see Spike Jonze collaborate with Wes Anderson and Ridley Scott for renting out a Boeing hangar and put on some kind of interactive multi-media exposition with sets and installations (some of the Rube Goldbergian variety) built, for the most part, by Frank Gehry, Damien Hirst, and a brought-back-from-the-dead Chris Burden. ---

As a huge fan of the ORIGINAL _Office_ (the one on the BBC), I always thought it would have been the best thing ever if, on Mad Men, there was an episode where they had to go visit the London office of the British firm that they’re affiliated with, and they get there and the whole office is staffed by the cast of the British _Office_. I thought they missed a golden opportunity by not doing that! ---

I was just contemplating a _Stan Against Evil_ and _Brockmire_ crossover on IFC. John C. McGinley and Hank Azaria: When over the top isn’t good enough. “Uh oh, looks like Stan’s been seduced by a succubus. Been there, done that.” ---

Switched At Birth, a TV show starring Jeri Ryan and Fran Drescher, who discover their younger sisters were switched at birth: Maggie Wheeler (Friend’s Janice) was raised with rich parents and Jeri, and Jenna Elfman was raised in poverty with Jeri. When the mistake is discovered, Fran and Jenna go to live in Jeri and Maggie’s rich world. Hilarity ensues. ---

A movie starring me and Jennifer Lawrence. I’m a sexually dysfunctional old man, and she’s a sex therapist who will stop at nothing to cure me. Critics agree: it’s the feel-good comedy of the year! ---

I’d like to see David Lynch direct an adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s _Ubik_. Probably won’t happen, though. Michel Gondry would be my second choice, but he [already tried and gave up](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubik#Production_in_2010s_%E2%80%93_Gondry). Oh, and Danny Elfman should compose the score. ---
