I watch Battlestar Galactica, and I cried when it was over. The end was sooo sad. So I looked up Mary Mcdonnell and found she's in a few episodes of Grey's Anatomy. However, she's in Season 5. Being brilliant like I am, I said "Let's start at episode one. It can't take too long to catch up." Lies. That was nearly a year ago. I watched season one, two, and maybe part of three? I don't remember. It's a soap opera; it's all the same. Anyways, last night, I skipped to season 5 and the three episodes Mary is in.
AHHMAZING!!
Ok, maybe not that great, but I quite enjoyed it. She plays Virginia Dixon, who's a great heart surgeon. However, she has Asperger's Syndrome. If you don't know what it is, go look it up, I'm not an expert. But what it eventually equated to was raising the acting bar. She did a great job. I think if you feel so embarrassed for a character that you have to bury your face in a pillow, they did well.
To the point: I think it would be rather interesting to write a Grey's/Battlestar crossover, in which Grey's is happening roughly 150,000 years after Battlestar. If you've seen it, you'll remember the whole "it has happened before, it shall happen again" prophecy and Gaius' hallucinated Six saying maybe the circle was ending.
It could be set in Grey's with Dixon as the "dying leader"/Laura Roslin, and Adama would have to be an OC, I suppose. How interesting could this get? You could do a whole novel....
What's your opinion on fanfiction? Stops creativity by already having a set universe and characters, or encourages creativity by letting authors focus solely on the plot and character development, rather than who and where?
