Description TITLE: What if Wizards of Waverly Place had a crossover with Packages from Planet X?

It would be VERY interesting if these two ended shows - Wizards of Waverly Place (WOWP) and Packages from Planet X (PFPX) - had a live-action/flash-animated hybrid crossover together. There are two things that these two shows have in common:

1) SHARED PBS ACTORS:
Both shows did feature actors that have acted on certain PBS shows.

* Selena Gomez (who played the main lead character of Alex Russo in WOWP) previously played Gianna in Seasons 7-8 of Barney & Friends.

* Both Ty Olsson and Kathleen Barr (who respectively voiced secondary lead character Troll Moko and various background characters in PFPX) previously voiced Ord and Wheezie respectively in Dragon Tales.

* Brian Drummond, Tabitha St. Germain, and Nicole Oliver (who respectively voiced main antagonists Corvis Copernicus/Leepthor and Calimary, as well as both Amanda's unnamed mother, and Dan's respective grandmother and mother in PFPX) all previously voiced Skits, Danny, Mariella, Jake, Martha, and Mrs. Clusky respectively in Martha Speaks.

2) CONCURRENTLY AIRED ON THE SAME NETWORK:
Both shows have concurrently aired on Disney XD.

A bit of a long rundown, WOWP (an imported Disney Channel original) was added to Disney XD's lineup in reruns on February 13, 2012, which was the same day as the 3rd anniversary of Disney XD's launch, as well as a day shy of the 1st anniversary of Disney Junior's launch (the block on Disney Channel to be exact {now known as "Mickey Mornings"}; the 24/7 Disney Junior network didn't launch until March 23, 2012), and about 1 1/4 months after the Disney Channel premiere of the one-hour WOWP finale: "Who Will Be the Family Wizard?".

Meanwhile, PFPX (an acquired show from both American Greetings Entertainment {now Cloudco Entertainment} and DHX's {a.k.a. Wildbrain's} Studio B Productions) wasn't added to Disney XD's lineup until July 13, 2013, which was almost 4 months after the Disney Channel premiere of the overall final WOWP-related production: The Wizards Return: Alex vs. Alex, as well as 6 days before the release of Selena Gomez's first solo studio album: Stars Dance.

Despite WOWP still airing on Disney XD at the time of PFPX making its premiere, the two shows aired several hours (even both days and weeks) apart from each other. While WOWP aired as part Disney XD's standard schedule, PFPX instead aired as part of new Saturday-morning programming block that launched the same day, called "Randomation Animation", alongside Camp Lakebottom (which premiered on the same day as PFPX), as well as reruns of Phineas and Ferb (another Disney Channel import), Max Steel, Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures, and Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja respectively, before being joined by Xiaolin Chronicles.

When PFPX was taken off of Disney XD's lineup following its final episode on February 24, 2014, reruns of WOWP were still airing. That show (alongside the then-still-in-production Jessie {yet, another Disney Channel import}) wasn't taken off of Disney XD's lineup until about 4 1/4 months later on June 30, 2014.
