Hi,
A friend and I are having fun while watching Firefly and she said "What shows would not want to see crossover with firefly" as well as "Shows that would make great crossover episodes"
My top choices for shows I'd least like to see crossover with Firefly
The Lost World - As much as I think this a cute show and how cool would if be if wash could of seen dinosaurs I just didnt think it would work.
Mutant X
Shows that would of made cool crossovers
Charmed - The Charmed ones on board! it be cool!
Angel
Buffy
Both Stargate Series

I'd love to see the crew encounter some Aliens from the movie "Aliens". Maybe give the crew some pulse rifles etc.. Maybe even meet Ripley. I know, I know she's dead but stranger things have happened.

D'you know, I think Kaylee would make an ideal companion for the Doctor of Doctor Who fame!
Also, the 2000AD comic Strontium Dog (in which the only career option for mutants of the future is state sanctioned bounty hunting) reminds me a lot of Firefly. How would Johnny Alpha get on with Mal?
I gotta tell you, just about every show I like nowadays I wonder about the FF crossover perspectives...

YES: DR. WHO, STAR TREK: VOYAGER
NO: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (I just don't like the idea of them in the same boat as the humans in that show. The struggle should always be of just trying to survive in general, not being on the run from killer robots with the extinction of the human race a possibility. Too depressing for me.)

And wow! Hey! What's this thing suddenly coming towards me very fast? Very very fast. So big and flat and round, it needs a big wide sounding name like ... ow ... ound ... round ... ground! That's it! That's a good name - ground! I wonder if it will be friends with me?

Bubba Ho-Tep and Firefly could work pretty well as a crossover.
I can imagine the crew picking up cargo and the soul sucking Mummy being in one of the crates.At night, old Bubba could come alive and wander the decks of Serenity.
It would have to set at least 30 years in the future when the BDH's are old and wrinkly though.

You're suggesting that Joss should script a movie in which a crew of outlaws and mercenaries(though mostly good guys at heart) should encounter the long presumed dead Ripley, followed by a battle with Aliens?
That's just crazy talk!

Good:
1) Battlestar Galactica would be fine, if the Cylons came in as a new threat, new to that area of space. You could actually have some interesting plot lines with a temporary "common enemy" with the Alliance. Maybe bring back a more seasoned version of that Alliance guy from Bushwacked? He's the one Alliance guy that seemed quasi-intelligent. He could be torn between the Alliance party line and the Browncoats' view...
2) Aliens, same reason.
3) Strictly on a charater basis, I'd love to see the Gibbs from the CBS show "NCIS" meet Mal. I see them as similar characters, but on opposite sides of a "central authority". The teams of both shows would be interesting to put in the same room (or ship).
4) Quantum Leap. Wouldn't that be great to see Scott Bakula's character turn up as Zoe, Mal or River? Ooo - or Niska?
Not good:
1) Star Trek or Star Wars. Their universes are too cut-and-dried to get along well with Firefly's. Not enough gray areas.
2) Any magic themed show - Charmed, for example. I like the show, but I just don't like to combine those types of themes. Too much tendency for the science of one show to get lost.
3) Any superhero show - Batman, Superman, The Incredibles
. Same reason.

Did you know Joss was supposed to have written a script for one of the shows in the current (2005) series of Doctor Who? Unfortunately, he didn't get the chance to hand in the script... :( Still, Kaylee as the Doctor's assitant? Sounds great to me.

I'm currently working on a Final Fantasy VII/firefly crossover fanfic (those crazy Blue Sun guys!), so I advocate that.

Greatest. Crossover. Ever. would have to be with Angel. Serenity could land on a moon or something and find Spike and Angel still arguing about who would win: Astronauts or Cavemen. Then some reavers could show up so they could test their theory, proving Angel right at last as Mal, Jayne and Zoe easily gun down the reavers.
