Doctor Who with Tom Baker was appointment television after school when I was growing up. I was also a fan of the short lived Planet of the Apes TV series. If there had been a crossover between the two, I think that I would have been beside myself.

would sarah jane smith aka elisabeth sladen be in it?
ReplyDeleteYES! :-D
ReplyDeleteI, too, would've loved a crossover between these two. In fact, I sometimes wonder if those Dalek mercenaries, the Ogrons, were created by the writers of the original Doctor Who series as a subtle homage to POTA. The 1968 film having come out while Jon Pertwee was still the 3rd Doctor, I believe.
That's an interesting and plausible-looking hypothesis.
DeleteAnd does anybody else here remember a short-lived 1980s series called 'The Futurians'? One issue of that included a superhero named Doctor Zeus...
I do! I do! :-)
DeleteMe, too. I loved the look! Sort of like Space Ghost wearing Metallis' body armor (after a paint job).
DeleteThe Dr going for a trip into "a future" with divergent timestreams from a "fixed point"! nice one, Ross!!
ReplyDeleteIf we had a photo cover of "Red Guardian and Stranger Things Have a Violent Night," I'd be beside myself -- and so would David Harbour (who is coming to Rose City Comic Con this year)!
ReplyDeleteHow about a hawkman\ Harvey bird man crossover?
ReplyDeleteTentative title: "The Carter Hall of Justice!" ?
Deleteit might need a wing and a prayer!
Delete"Wing and a Prayer" might be a good title for a team-up between Hawkman and the Confessor.
DeleteThank you, Tobor! I couldn't think of a way to work that in, myself. From now on, when I can't think of puns on my own, you'll be my wing man.
ReplyDeleteI too loved the PotA TV series and since I was too young to see the movies, thought it started out on TV. Roddy McDowell loved being behind that mask a little too much methinks.
ReplyDelete1970's NBC were full of one season SciFi shows I presume were trying to replicate the success of Star Trek. Logan's Run was one. But my favorite was Fantastic Journey, also with Roddy McDowell. You can think of it as a precursor to Sliders as our heroes hop from "time zone" to time zone looking for a way to get out of the Bermuda Triangle and back home.
Actually, LOGAN'S RUN THE SERIES was a CBS one-season wonder.
