Bewitched Bunch?

I kind of enjoy cross-over TV shows, where the cast of one show visits another. Sometimes this is done as a setup for a spinoff, like Laverne & Shirley, Mork & Mindy or one of the versions of CSI or Law & Order. Sometimes the crossover is just for fun, like when the cast of Bewitched suddenly became animated & visited the Flintstones. As a child, my dream crossover would have been a visit to the Brady Bunch. We were filmed at the same time for the same network (ABC). I even sometimes shared an on set tutor with the Brady Kids. Maureen McCormick was on a couple episodes of Bewitched before she was a Brady. I would have loved to be a classmate of Cindy & Bobby. It doesn't matter that they're three years older, TV age and real age don't always coincide. Marcia & Jan could have been my babysitters! Can't you imagine the fun we would have had? I'm friends with most of the Brady's in the "real world". Susan Olsen has even puppy sat for us when we've gone on family vacation. What crossover TV show would you like to see?

I gotta go with the Brady Bunch. Susan Olsen rocks, and she was a lot of fun to meet last year.

Hi Erin,

#115 "A safe and sane Halloween" would have been fun if you went trick or treating at 1313 Mockingbird Lane, Mockingbird Heights. All Tabitha’s friends would have fitted in nicely at the Munsters.

#135 "I confess" would have been a little different if when going to an abandoned Military instillation it was Fort Courage and F troop was there to protect you.

It would have been sensational if in #137 "Samantha's secret saucer" you used the saucer to visit The Lost in space set, Tabitha could have twitched that troublesome Dr Smith into oblivion.

And finally, making the trip from Hooterville, Arnold Ziffel could have guest starred in #151 "I don't want to be a pig, I want to be a butterfly"
