They have robots crashing 18th or 19th century France, Cybermen in Victorian London, and Fantastical forces sabotaging Agatha Christi’s life. That’s one of the things I love about the show- the anachronisms of space-age technology brought back in time.

Watership Down with zombie rabbits is a wonderful one.

Also, I’d totally pay for a legal thriller with wizards. That could be fun.

I’m far too tired to be clever at this hour, but I’m going to have to think on this.

I wanna invent some too.

Cyberpunk Greek tragedy.

A diary of a teenage girl. Recounted in third person by a dispassionate cynical talking animal.

An epic poem about slapstick cartoon characters set in Existentialist Paris.

Hmm…trickier than it looks…
