Fandoms That Should Collide

Let's see, after conversation between deifire, vily and myself, here's the rundown on fandoms we want to see a collision between.

Supernatural
Sarah Connor Chronicles
Knight Rider
X-Files

Quite frankly, Supernatural and Sarah Connor Chronicles are at the top of the list for me. Because I want Ellison and Henrickson to have been at Quantico at the same time, and an exploration of how their career paths differed so (with Ellison getting more of a path to glory and Henrickson getting more grunt work). Then you throw in Agent Ruvai from Knight Rider (plus, you know, KITT v. Skynet totally is where it's at). At this point, throw in Mulder and Scully for some serious whackado fun.

Prince Harry

Anyone else amused that the guys he served with in Afghanistan called him "Bullet Magnet"? Just me?

***

NASCAR

So the whole "leaving the cap off" thing that Edwards' team did is actually really, really beneficial? Huh. I thought it was just an amusing thing that they missed. I didn't realize it was actually big time cheating.

American Idol

So, of the current crop, we have one drunk driving arrest (Amanda), one picture online grabbing a coworker's boob (Ramiele) and one stripper who went fully nude (David Hernandez). So...who gets the Frenchie treatment and who gets to be all Antonella? My money is on Ramiele not getting dinged (her picture is tamer than anything Antonella did). Amanda won't get dinged either, because there's been a history on the arrest thing for a while. David H. is possibly the only one who'll get dinged.
