Fanfics As Episodes Or Movies

I hope this is okay, but I was wondering: which fanfics do you think would have made great episodes or movies (or even miniseries)?

ooh.... that's a hard one as there is so much good work out there. I'm going to have to ponder that one for a bit. :?:

Honest to goodness, I read Switched by Kathy Rose on fanfiction.net and the whole time I was seeing it in my head as an episode.

I agree! One story that I think would've been a great episode is A Life Worth Living by Gabi http://fiction.entstcommunity.org/viewstory.php?sid=3737,rated PG-13. It's an alternate version of Similitude, and I so wish it could've played out that way on the show.

Oooo.... There are so many, but here's a few suggestions.

I love would have love to have seen the nanite series and stand alones:
Mentem Mortalia Tangunt
Walk in the Dark
Set in Stone

by Drogna as episodes.

And anything by : plumtuckered

Another would be Stranded by vanishingp2000.

The above links takes you to their home pages on fanfic.net, except for Stranded, that link takes you directly to the story.

Just a few! :D

This is tricky. I read a lot of fanfic, too!

Kathy Rose's The Hazards of Dropping In would have been an excellent funny episode.

And I definitely write my stories to be prose, not episodes. But when I wrote The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Archer, I thought it would make a great costume/time travel episode.

I absolutely agree, Pauline! Here's another: Alternate Boston by RoaringMice, rated PG-13 http://fiction.entstcommunity.org/viewstory.php?sid=2157. It would've been an editor's nightmare, but I think they could've pulled it off.

They're not episodes themselves, but I would have loved to have actually seen each and every one of Aleou's "Missing TnT Scenes". :) But then, I guess that's why they're called missing scenes...

"Cross my heart" by volley also would have made a nice episode, imho. Two Decembers ago, the TwitterFic group actually did volley's "Glitches" as a TwitterFic story, trying to raise money for Make A Wish.

Very much so!

Here's one I think would've been a lot of fun: Trip-let? by Trinneergirl, rated PG-13 http://trip.houseoftucker.com/fiction/author_trinneergirl_triplet.shtml.
