That should keep you occupied for hours and hours. It's a semi-comprehensive list of TV show crossovers and how they tie seemingly unrelated TV shows into "realities." Through a 6-Degrees-of-Kevin-Bacon style game you can show that I Love Lucy take place in the same universe as Seinfeld (as do Mad About You, Oz, The X-Files, and even COPS).
And all of TV history is apparently the daydream of an autistic child on St. Elsewhere.
I'm excited that you're coming for Shabbat! It's kinda weird, though, because I've never, erm, actually met you yet. (Not that that's weird. It's more weird that other people around me are equally excited, and we're all in the same circles and all. Except that they've all met you, and I'm vaguely the instigation for this weekend excursion of yours and I've never met you. Yeah. That.)
But isn't there a paradox somewhere? I heard something like there was one TV show where characters were watching another TV show which was supposedly in the same universe. Does that make one of them a reality show?
If it makes you feel any better, I've been getting quite antsy in Philly lately, and would've probably found an excuse to go away this weekend even if you weren't around.
Can you think of any halfronyms that don't start with e or i? [A halfronym is a term my coworker coined to mean a word that's half acronym, half spelled out. examples of halfronyms are EMail (Electronic Mail) and IBanking (Investment Banking)].
Yeah the rules are necessarily lax because of all the contradictions a complete listing would cause.
Take for example The Fresh Prince's crossover with Blossom (and if you remember Blossom, kudos). Blossom meets Will Smith and reacts as she would if she met a celebrity "OMG it's Will Smith!" But Will Smith's character, "Will Smith" is not famous on tFPoBA. So that means that tFPoBA is a show in Blossom's world.
But a few episodes later there's another crossover, where Blossom's brother dates Hillary Banks. So that means that tFPoBA is part of the same reality as Blossom.
There's a contradiction right within the same two shows.
And I'm convinced there's nothing "real" about "reality shows" anyhow, ha.
If you ever get bored, there's always Wonkette... or, if you're not a political junkie like me, you can check out some other cool DC blogs (and their archives) like the Rock Creek Rambler or the Blank Top Chronicles. See you this weekend, Deshie!
What the fuck? It has me in Honolulu first (I guess I wasn't clear enough that I like seasonal variations and SOME snow, even if I don't want to be buried in it all winter long). Then Vegas, LA (I said I love public transportation), Hartford CT (????), and New Haven. At least Providence/Boston/Worcester are 10/11/12. DC is 16. Philly isn't on there at all, which means I'm officially throwing this away.
