Name Crossovers

What's in a name? Would a rose smell as sweet by any other name? I think so. My shows not only have crossover characters, but crossover title star names.

Emma

Jennifer Morrison - Emma Swan (Once Upon a Time)


or

Alexandra Chando - Emma Becker (The Lying Game)




Regina

Lana Parrilla - Regina Mills (Once Upon a Time)


or

Constance Marie - Regina Vasquez (Switched at Birth)


Toby

Lucas Grabeel - Toby Kennish (Switched at Birth)


or

Keegan Allen -Toby (Prety Little Liars)


Emily

Shay Mitchell - Emily Fields (Pretty Little Liars)


or

Emily VanCamp - Emily Thorne (Revenge)


Henry

Jared Gilmore - Henry Mills (Once upon a time)


or

Kristoffer Polaha - Henry Butler (Ringer)


Juliet

Zoey Deutch - Juliet Martin (Ringer)


or

Bitsie Tulloch - Juliet Silverton (Grimm)


Then again, we can still count on writers for original names like Sutton, Bay, Shiobban, Aria, Silver, Declan and Quinn, cant we?

Let's make a deal

Vamps, hybrids, werewolves, no problem. My younger brother a problem - well stated Elena. And a good way to depict this episode to come. When we last left them, Stephen stole the coffins of Klaus' loved ones. Now he is on a war path to get them back. He asks Elena to get them back and he will not hurt any of her loved ones. He wants to make a deal.

Stephen wants to hide all of the coffins and have Bonnie cast a spell to help him do so. Elena and Ric are trying to have family dinner with Jeremy, but he is too busy with his new BFF hybrid Tyler. They start to shoot crossbows together. They are all at dinner and we get the sinking feeling that Tyler is one of the bad guys. We later see a scene where is compelled to his sire Klaus to do whatever he bids him to do. He leaves dinner and Jeremy gets a strange phone call (on the other end we see Klaus making the call and saying DO IT NOW). Jeremy takes off his protection ring and stands in the middle of the street as a crazy hybrid (who has also been stalking Elena) almost runs him over. Ric steps in front of the car and gets hit and thrown to the ground. Good thing he is wearing his ring.

Back at home, Ric is not ok, he starts coughing up blood. Elena calls 911 and they come to revive him until the nasty hybrid compels them to leave. With a dying Ric there, Jeremy shoots the hybrid with an arrow and then chops off his head (go Jer!). They take Rick to the hospital. And of course, before the episode started, I saw Torrey Devitto's name in the credits. (She first started as crazy Nanny Carrie on One Tree Hill who stole Jaime, then she played crazy sister Melissa on Pretty Little Liars and she is also Stephen's wife in real life, so of course she deserves a cameo) She is the nurse who takes care of Rick. I can see a relationship budding there. She introduces her as Doctor Fell and I immediately think she is related to dead, vamp, scumbag Logan, remember him? But is she supernatural too?

Elena tells Klaus that she may not know where the coffins are, but she will give him Rebecca for the safety of her brother. He agrees and unstakes her. Elena also lets him know that Rebecca is aware that he killed their mother and she is pissed. As she starts coming back to life, he restakes her. I guess he doesn't want to deal with her knowing the truth about his evil ways with mommy original.

Stephen, although not full of humanity, has a brawl with Damon and lets him know the reason why he didn't kill Klaus was to save him. Damon realizes that big bro doesn't need to save him all the time, but deep inside is thankful for him. The coffins are being hidden in the witch house by Bonnie, but she cannot open them. There is some curse on them. I am pretty sure she will eventually open them.

I guess Jeremy is off the show. We have Damon compel him to leave Mystic Falls and start a new life elsewhere. Rick and Elena think its best for him and agree to this as everyone has tears in their eyes. Bye bye Jer, we will miss you!
And then the best part. Damon tells Elena what he knows about Stephen and tells her that he wants to make sure if Stephen is upset with him, its for a good reason and he kisses her. Everybody's heart melted and all Damon/Elena fans are dying. Will this be a new love for her? Or will Stephen get his humanity back? And where is Caroline in all of this??

Monte Carlo Crossovers

I watched a cute little young film before bed last night since all of my Thursday night TV is on hiatus until after winter break.



Monte Carlo is about two Texas girls who are going to Paris right after the youngest has graduated from high school. Her parents decide that her step sister should come with so they can bond. While they are there they find one of the girl's basic clone (reminds me a bit of the Lizzie McGuire Movie) and they want to live her life. They get whisked off to Monte Carlo in a private jet and live this posh life with LV trunks of clothes, fall in love with lots of guys and then become the bestest of friends (of course!) We all live happily ever after and this is why I watch this stuff!

Selena Gomez
A bit young for my viewing pleasure, but is dating the Biebs.

Corey Monteith
Glee alum

Katie Cassidy
Gossip Girl and the New Melrose Place alum

Leighton Meester
Gossip Girl's own Blair Waldorf

One Season Wonders

Ever have a favorite show that only makes it to one season? I had a bunch along the way. This DVR Junkie tries most shows out. Here a few of my favorite that I wish would come back! (Also a bunch of crossover stars!)

Swans Crossing 
1992. Displaying the lives of wealthy teenagers. Featuring Buffy and Ringer's own Sarah Michelle Gellar as the main star, the mayor's daughter. (See how early I loved her?)

My So-Called Life
1994. Best season ever. I own this box set and have watched it a few times. Following the lives of middle class Angela and bad girl Ray-anne with maybe gay Ricky, loving Jordan Catalano. Swoon. How could you not watch this? The only crossover star was Brian (Devon Gummersall) who played a bit part on Felicity.

North Shore
2004. Local Hawaiian hotel where scandals take place. Melrose Place meets Hawaii. Thought this show was going far, but I guess not. Fox cancelled it. This has crossover stars galore! We have Kristoffer Polaha (Ringer's Henry), Brooke Burns (From Pepper Dennis), James Remar (From Sex and the city), Shannon Doherty (Beverly Hills 90210's alum Brenda as well as Charmed) and Nikki Deloach (the mother on awkward)

Reunion
2005. Another fox show cancelled. About 6 friends coming together for their 20th high-school reunion. One of them was murdered and they need to backtrack to figure out who. It never ended, so I never found out! Bummer. However, a few key crossovers. Dave Annabelle (from Brothers & Sisters) and Chyler Leigh (Lexie Grey from Grey's Anatomy)

Related
2005-2006. Set in NY by the WB (cwtv now) four sisters with completely different lives. A heartwarming rom-com show, yet never made it too far. A few crossovers here as well. We have dad Tom Irwin (dad also on My So Called Life), Lizzy Caplan (who was on Tru Calling and True Blood as Jason Stackhouse's girlfriend addicted to V), Laura Breckenridge (who briefly starred as a teacher in a tryst with Dan on Gossip Girl) and lovable Kyle Howard (Bobby on My Boys and Lauren Conrad's real life ex)

Vampire Diaries Romance Crossovers

It seems that romance buds across some of my favorite shows. I know they say that when you work on the same show you fall in love but how about when you work across the set? It seems the Vampire Diaries cast are falling in love all over the place!

Nina Dobrev (Vampire Diaries) and Ian Somerhalder (Vampire Diaries)


Emily VanCamp (Revenge) and Joseph Morgan (Vampire Diaries)


Paul Wesley (Vampire Diaries) and Torrey DeVitto (Pretty Little Liars)

Nick Wechsler - From a 90's favorite Roswell


Emily VanCamp - Rebecca from Brothers & Sisters


Don't you just love when they recycle?

Scream 4 Crossovers

Everybody loves a good character crossover. I know I do. I netflixed Scream 4 last night and was in particular awe by the opening scene. In it, they do a clip of girls watching a movie about girls watching a movie. Very Twilight Zone.

Anna Paquin
Our hometown hottie Sookie from True Blood


Kristen Bell
The anonymous voice of Gossip Girl


Lucy Hale
Sweet and loveable Aria from Pretty Little Liars


Shenae Grimes
Kansas native Annie from 90210


Don't you love when all your favorite TV characters are in one place? It makes you feel like a Hollywood land reunion :)
