Okay, since we're a little slow, would anyone like to play "nominate the worst possible cross-over?"

Blake's Seven Veggietales (which brings up Avon the Dancing Cucumber again).

Or how about B7 Newhart with Avon as the only sane man in a town of . . . less balanced types ("Hi, my name's Blake. This is my arch-enemy Travis. This is my other arch-enemy Travis").

This actually works. Gan could be George the handyman. Soolin could be Stephanie, the blond and self absorbed maid. Vila could be just about any of the strange people who passed through town. Jenna would be Joanna . . . until Avon woke up from his nightmare and found he was really a character in a 60's sitcom married to Cally (with Servalan appearing regularly as his mother-in-law, Endora).

Or, let's see, antithesis of Blake's 7, I guess that would be anything that could take the most dark, downer ending imaginable and turn it into something beautifully upbeat -

Blake's 7 Winter's Tale: King Avon, having tried (unsuccessfully) to murder his best friend for selling him out (so to speak), and having (successfully) helped do in his true love whom he (incorrectly) thought had betrayed him - not to mention having more or less caused the apparent deaths of just about everyone he remotely cares about - realizes everything that's gone wrong was his fault, spends years in repentence, and is then set up for the happy (yet convincing) ending.

Oh, wait, problem.

I _like_ that idea.
