TV Show Crossovers You Want to See

[Jack Bauer]

I'd like to see every police procedural/crime drama show currently on the air to have one massive crossover.

Just thought of another one: Simpsons & Futurama. There have been nods, but I don't think there has ever been a crossover. I think something like this would be big enough to warrant a movie.

Agree, how about a Family Guy & Simpsons crossover. There was another nod in episode of FAMILY GUY when Peter sees Homer from THE SIMPSONS and says who's that guy.

I'd like an episode of SG-1 which features the planet from this series.

24 and Die Hard.

Yeah the latter isn't a TV show but I'd still want to see it.

Apparently Fox studios, who own the rights to both, briefly entertained the idea of a crossover movie, now that 24 is apparently big-screen bound. They even registered the name Die Hard 24/7.

I don't think it would work though - Die Hard is set within our universe, if you remember the use of real-life US presidents to deliver the bad guys' message in 4.0. Whereas 24 is set in the near future, with a series of fictional presidents.

Still, Bauer and McClane together would be fun.

To get them together it'd have to be a "prequel" to some of the more recent 24 seasons. Without going through the time-line again 24's last season should have taken place in 2015, if 24 was on this season it likely would've been around 2017 (as usually 18 months - 2 years took place between seasons) so to have McClain and Bauer together in present-day, and we'll say this imaginary movie was to come out next summer (in 2012) the movie would take place sometime before or after Day 6 and due to the circumstances of Jack's "return" before Day 6 after Day 6 makes more sense.

After Day 6 Jack seemed to have settled down a bit before fleeing to Africa for "Redemption" (which took place almost 4 years after Day 6. (Redemption took place on Inaguration Day for President Taylor, Day 6 took place a few months into President W.Palmer's presidency) but was somewhat wanted by the government. I do not recall the circumstances or the time line between the events of Day 6 and Jack fleeing to Africa. But any "present day" team up of Jack and McClain could really only happen at this point and, yeah, it'd have to bring the utter chaos of the 24 Universe into Die Hard's far more mundane one.

Probably why they decided not to do it since there's no good way to bring the two together without mucking up either universe. Die Hard would be "tainted" by 24's absurdity of chaos of everything that happened in the world in the span of the 12 years that've passed for Jack and 24 would be weighed down by Die Hard's attempts to try and be more "realistic" and without CTU's hyper-futuristic technology that's culminated due to half-dozen or so major terrorist attacks that have occurred in America over the span of 12 years.

The only way it "could work" is by making this a "parallel Jack" who exists in the naturalistic universe of Die Hard without the absurdity of 24's various seasons (anything past S3, really) but conveying this to audience would be hard to do.

Or it could take place around the time of 24's third season when Jack was still fairly "normal" and the universe he lived in was still "normal" to a degree. This movie would take place sometime around Die Hard 4 and really be the perfect time for both "universes" to logically exist at the same time (as LFoDH pretty much had a 24-ian plot.) It'd be easier to convey that the movie takes place shortly after DH4 and through dialogue tells us when in 24's time line things took place (have Jack mention still being on friendly terms with Tony, mention Driscoll, etc.)

...

Have I over thought this?

 

[Captaindemotion]

^ I think you have but it saved me having to do it.

As for LFoDH having a 24 plot, don't you mean that 24 lifted that plot for the beginning of Season 7?! Not to mention lifting the scene in DH2 where the bad guys made a plane crash by taking over air controller frequency (though in 24 Tony wasn't bad enough to make the planes crash).

If Supernatural and Smallville had a crossover, the Winchesters could kill the Blur by 45 after and then devote the final act to bad jokes, angst and a Top 40 song playing in the background.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

I would have liked to see the Pinhead crossover with Freddy vs. Jason.

 

[Nerys Myk]

Bonanza, the Big Valleyand High Chaparral. Blue Boy Cannon and Little Joe Cartwright get in fight over the affections of Audra Barkley.

Wild Wild West, Barbary Coast and Brisco County Jr. Wesy & Gordon, Cable & Cannon and Brisco & Lord Bowler all cross paths on the trail of Hannibal Hayes and Kid Curry, alias Smith and Jones

I'd think it'd be interesting if Castle and Beckett got a case of murder tied in with a white collar scam, requiring the services of Peter Burke and Neal Caffrey.

 

[DeafPoet]

Ummmm... The West Wing and South Park. Wouldn't be boring, at any rate

 

[PlainSimpleJoel]

Would love to see a crossover between Farscape and Star Trek/ST-TNG.

 

[trekkiebaggio]

I'd like to see Bones and Sheldon meet.

 

[Jack Bauer]

smallville and lois and clark.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Here's the crossover from hell:

The Star Trek novel Ishmael.
