History JustForFun / XMeetsY

** [[XMeetsY/ChildrensShow Children's Shows]]

!!Examples Subpages:

Compare RecycledInSPACE, {{Crossover}}, ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs. See also DuelingWorks. Frequent enough with weapons to qualify for a separate trope: see MilitaryMashupMachine. It can also result in a type of [[TropesThatWillNeverHappen/XMeetsY Tropes That Will Never Happen]].

* XMeetsY/{{Other}}

See also MixAndMatch, but this differs from it in that, conceptually, MixAndMatch works on the genre level (SpaceOpera + TheWestern = WagonTrainToTheStars), while [=X Meets Y=] works on the show/character level. Should more works/characters be added into the mix (e.g. X + Y + Z...) and it starts specifically using mathematical symbols to define the work/character as parts of others, it becomes {{JustForFun/Troperithmetic}}.
