I'm trying to come up with a list of all the incidents on tv where one television show segwayed into another show. I don't mean spinoffs but like the plot from one show's episode collided with another show's plot and it continued from over there.

Sorta like what they do between The Daily Show/Colbert Report but more plot based and much less practical.

So far I can only recall the incident between Teen Angel and Boy Meets World but I'm not incredibly sure of the details.

I'm sure a few dramas did this.

There was a bunch of shitty CBS sitcoms that did a cross-over plot about a jewel theif or something with THE NANNY. I think the plot started on THE NANNY and it continued into the other crappy shows that CBS was trying to promote.

TGIF did some sort of "magic night" where Salem from Sabrina the Teenage Witch went through all the other TGIF shows (including Boy Meets World)

Urkel with a jetpack flying into Step By Step :eek

Law and Order and Homicide did stuff all the time where part one of a story would start on Homicide and then end up being resolved on Law and Order, but they never followed each other directly.

I hate when people rider electric scooters from one show to another. Just screams "hey, lookie me, I wanna be trendy"


nm...i digress


CSI does this from time to time between the original series, NY, and Miami. They did one story where a guy fled from NY to Miami I think. Sci-fi series did/do it all the time, Star Trek TNG and DS9, Stargate SG1 and Atlantis, etc. And I remember an ABC sitcom from the 80s where the two show families were actually neighbors, and once and a while there would be a guest appearance, but once they did a full cross-story plot. I can't remember the series though....

There was one where the people from Coach went to Las Vegas and the people from the Drew Carey show were there too, and Mimi did an Elvis dance with Luther and I think some other stuff happened. =(

lol remember when Jay Sherman the critic was onthe simpsons and then he got cancelled? Humourlarious, although not a segway at all.

that 70s show seems like it's building up to a Jackie and Fez spinoff.

I seem to rmemeber the live action teenage mutant turtles cartoon started with a power rangers in space crossover. Lol, venus the turtle with boobies.

Friends and Joey is the obvious one.

Or the end of GHostbusters and the beginning of Extrme Ghostbusters.

I've been to that site, but that's more cameo appearences then shows actually connecting to each other. The thing I'm talking about was a really weird phenomenom that I think is only more in the lunancy of TGIF standards.

But thanks anyway.

oh man i think it was nbc and it was caused by one of the seinfeld people trying to steal cable? maybe?

I remember that episode but no blackout going with it.

It would have to be shows that resided in the same city, it couldn't of been Cheers or murphy brown because those both take place in different cities.

It would mostly likely be New York because of it's well known blackouts.

i think mad about you also had a blackout, i don't remember other shows

After looking it up it turns out it was MAD ABOUT YOU who had the whole stealing cable story that caused the blackout, this went on into Friends and in some stupid show called Madman of the People.

But it's funny because there was a seinfield where they stole cable.

Urkel was in a Full House episode when they were both on tgif together.

Seinfeld has never done any kind of cross-over ON seinfeld. Seinfeld has crossed over onto other shows, like Kramer showing up on Mad About You, but they've never had Pheobe from Friends show up at Monks or anything like that.

Some of you are missing the point, a spin-off or a crossover doesn't nessessarily equal what Gadzooks is talking about. He's talking about some kind of story or character or whatever that starts off in one episode of a show and then ends up being resolved on another show, typically one that directly follows the first show

Kramer was on Murphy Brown too, but that is also what I'm not looking for.

TGIF pulled this stunt where sabrina runs through the episodes of boy meets worlds, you wish, and teen angel all in one night. Thus the shows were linking in this storyline where sabrina chases a cat.

That's what I'm looking for.

well to be fair he did mention daily show and colbert report as an example and colbert report is a spinoff so confusion :(

well to be UNFAIR I did mention the part where they talk about the show at the end.

It wasnt the best example but it's not like I'm yelling at anyone that doesn't deserve it (courage)

There was this episode of Spider-Man (the 90's cartoon) where the X-Men appeared in the episode, although there wasn't a story that carried on from X-Men.

It's a confusing setup, I think I was just looking for the blackout and teen angel scenarios.

Thanks everybody!

In an episode of Angel, Angel gets some sort of talisman for fighting evil or something and then he shows up in an episode of Buffy and gives it to her.

Yeah, and then spike uses it, and then dies, and then comes back on angel :O

That's gotta be worth something.
