Challenge, For Fun - Bob Schroeck - 11-21-2007
Inspired by a "Crossover that shouldn't be" that I'm going to be putting in the thread of the same name in a couple minutes, I'm offering a fun little challenge.
Alter the name of any TV show, movie or book by one letter, and then write up something akin to a TV Guide entry for the resulting work.
Example:
Zeroes. This six-part miniseries examines the vital role the symbol for "nothing" plays in our economic and cultural history.
