I have a friend who keeps talking about doing that with Firefly, and how she would switch everyone but River, because then it would be Simon, the brilliant, softspoken older sister giving up her career and her future to save her mystical Jesus figure little brother and my friend just couldn't go there. Sci-fi/fantasty tv has way to many mystical male saviors, and thank God Joss Whedon understood that when he created the Firefly characters.
But I do find the idea of transforming whole casts to be fascinating. My friend was also talking about how a female Rodney (not a genderswitched, but an actual female Rodney) should be played by Margaret Cho, which I *love.*
