View Full Version : Seperate shows that exist in the same "universe"

What are shows that are unrlelated to each other, but still exist in the same "universe" (ie, by characters from one show making a cameo on the other show). So far all i've been able to come up with are:
Beavis and Butthead and Daria
King of the Hill and simpsons
GI Joe, Jem, Inhumanoids (Hector Ramieriez has been on all 3 shows), Transformers ("snake" IS cobra commander, i dont care what you say)
(I'd like to think that KOTH and B&B exist in the same universe (they both take place in fictional texas towns), but until we see a cameo by one of the characters its still seperate)
anything else?

I'm pretty sure there was a Flintstones series with Captain Caveman in it, too.
And while we're at it, a whole load of Hanna Barbara's "present day" series have had crossovers...
I did something like this a while back. I managed to conenct Super Mario Bros. to Star Wars, several Disney movies and the Marvel Universe. No kidding!

Tiny Toons-Animaniacs-Pinky & The Brain: Ralph the Guard went from Tiny Toons to A!, then Buster, Babs, and Plucky showed up for a cameo, and Elmyra guest starred in a Mindy short before being added to Pinky & The Brain's cast later on. Had Freakazoid lasted longer, it might have been considered in continuity as well.
Beavis & Butthead-Daria-King of the Hill-The Simpsons-The Critic: Daria got her own spin-off from B&B, Hank Hill is probably Tom Anderson's distant cousin, the Hills and and Jay Sherman have both shown up on the Simpsons.
Danny Phantom-Fairly Oddparents: It's not hard to connect these two shows, what with the same creator being behind them, and the supernatural elements to both shows.
G.I. Joe-Jem-Transformers-Inhumanoids-My Little Pony & Friends: Just added My Little Pony because it's not hard to imagine talking ponies in a world with giant talking robots, a race of snake people, and Aja's supposedly natural hair color.
Ducktales-Darkwing Duck-Good Troop-Tale Spin: Tale Spin being in the past, the former three could all be in the same universe.
Gummi Bears-Winnie the Pooh-Raw Toonage-Bonkers-Quack Pack-Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers: Going off the human elements here. QP could have been Donald's 't.v. show' in the Bonker's Universe.

How about Pinky and The Brain and Tiny Toon Adventures? Wasn't there Pinky, Elmrya and the Brain?Yup. Also, Elmyra was in a few episodes of Animaniacs (Buster, Babs, Plucky, Fifi, Furrball, Mary Melody and I think Shirley all made appearances in Animaniacs), and the Warner siblings made a few guest appearances on Freakazoid. There's also the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies classic cartoons and the modern Looney Tune revival shows (Taz-Mania, the Sylvester & Tweety Mysteries, Duck Dodgers and *ducks* Baby Looney Tunes and Loonatics Unleashed), plus Histeria! (where Bugs, Elmer, and other Looney Tunes made ocassional cameoes).
Also according to the film "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies characters live in the same world as the classic Disney cartoon characters (which throws the Carl Barks/Don Rosa/etc. Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck comics, DuckTales, Chip 'n' Dale Rescue Rangers, Darkwing Duck, Goof Troop, Bonkers, Raw Toonage, Quack Pack, Mickey Mouse Works and House of Mouse among others into the works), the Walter Lantz "cartune" characters (Woody Woodpecker), Betty Boop (and by extention, Popeye because Popeye's first film was billed as a Betty Boop cartoon even though Betty was only in it for a brief amount of screentime), and the old MGM cartoon characters (Barney Bear, Tom & Jerry, Spike & Tyke, Droopy, Screwball "Screwy" Squirrel, Red Hot Riding Hood, The Tom & Jerry & Grape Ape & Mumbley Show, the Tom & Jerry Comedy Hour, Tom & Jerry Kids, and Droopy, Master Detective).
Tiny Toons-Animaniacs-Pinky & The Brain: Ralph the Guard went from Tiny Toons to A!, then Buster, Babs, and Plucky showed up for a cameo,
True.
and Elmyra guest starred in a Mindy short before being added to Pinky & The Brain's cast later on.
It was actually a Warner siblings cartoon that Elmyra guest-starred in. Mindy and Buttons just made a cameo.
Had Freakazoid lasted longer, it might have been considered in continuity as well.
As I pointed above, Freakazoid had cameos by some Animaniacs characters, including the Mime (though strangely, his hair was black in Animaniacs, but red in the episode of Freakazoid he guest-starred in).
Danny Phantom-Fairly Oddparents: It's not hard to connect these two shows, what with the same creator being behind them, and the supernatural elements to both shows.
Also, there's the fact that Danny was playing a Crash Nebula arcade game in one episode (and in an interesting Simpsons/Futurama-type vice-versa, in the Crash Neubla pilot episode, Crash is seen sleeping with a comic book that Danny Phantom on the cover or backcover lying on his head).
Gummi Bears-Winnie the Pooh-Raw Toonage-Bonkers-Quack Pack-Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers: Going off the human elements here. QP could have been Donald's 't.v. show' in the Bonker's Universe.
I'd add Marsupilami (which was a segment on Raw Toonage and has humans in it), and Goof Troop (just cause it has the "feel" of Raw Toonage, Bonkers and Quack Pack) to that list.
Also, the Quack Pack version of Donald Duck was seen on TV in an early episode of Gargoyles (the one that was the first appearance of MacBeth, I'm pretty sure), a kind of eery cartoon vision of the future.

Through all sorts of cameos, I've figured out that Johnny Bravo, Scooby-doo, Batman, Speed Buggy, Jabberjaw, Powerpuff Girls, Dexter's Lab, Samarai Jack (once he eventually killed Aku), and Blue Falcon all take place in the same reality. Also, it was hinted to in Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi that they may exist in the same world as Teen Titans.

Brilliant idea. I'd add Yogi Bear and the other classic Hanna-Barbera cartoons to that list 'cause they appeared with Scooby, Blue Falcon and Dynomutt in Laff-A-Lympics (and also the Flintstones made cameoes in Dexter's Lab). Maybe you could add Cow & Chicken and I Am Weasel to that list, since Dexter appeared in an I Am Weasel cartoon entitled "I Am My Lifetime" along with many other Hanna-Barbera characters as senior citizens (and Cow & Chicken and I Am Weasel have crossed over countless times).

I'd like to add Teen Titans to the above list too, but it's not "really" canon. :p

Nobody mentioned DCAU yet? For shame... Batman: TAS, Superman: TAS, Justice League / JLU, Static Shock, Zeta Project and Batman Beyond. Supposedly Krypto also exists in this universe but The Batman and Teen Titans do not.
The 90's Marvel Tunes are in the same universe as well for the most part. Spider-Man, X-Men, Fantastic Four, The Hulk and Iron Man. Due to various cross-overs. That may not be the case however the versions in the various series may not be related at all. The only one for sure is Spider-Man is in the same universe as the X-Men. The other cameos of Hulk, Iron Man, and the FF between all these series could be different versions rather than the same ones. They're probably all contected though. I'm certain the Silver Surfer in FF isn't the same as the one who got his own series though.
Various cross-overs, team-up movies and Harvey Birdman episodes indicate that all Hanna Barbera toons reside in the same universe though not all at the same time.

Simpsons is just a tv show in the futurama universe (see "a big pile of garbage" from season 1). I'd like to think that the bender cameo on simpsons was really just a generic robot who just happened to look like and talk like bender.

I'd like to think that the bender cameo on simpsons was really just a generic robot who just happened to look like and talk like bender. I think a more rational theory is that, according to Matt Groening, Futurama is "real" and the Simpsons is fake, so...
It could be in 3000 with Bender making that appearance, if you're talking about what I think you're talking about (the episode where Homer started a casino, right?).
Road Rovers is also part of the Tiny Toons/Animaniacs/Freakazoid/Pinky & the Brain/ect. universe. The brain had an off-screen appearence in one episode. (when one of the bad guys was ranting about world domination in a mental ward, all of the prisioners, including brain, begin arguing over who will take over the world)

Yes, The X-Men appeared on Spider-Man (Storm also appeared during Secret Wars), and Spider-Man had a cameo on X-Men.
The Hulk appeared in "Nightmare in Green" on Fantastic Four and "Helping Hand, Iron Fist" on Iron Man, both episodes are referenced later on the Hulk show. Iron Man made an appearance on Fantastic Four.
Connecting those two together is a bit tricky. Iron Man, still voiced by Robert Hayes but with a different design, appeared a few times on Spider-Man. The Fantastic Four (different design and mostly different voices) appeared on Spider-Man during the Secret War. Spider-Man and The X-Men made cameos on Fantastic Four. Also, Hydro-Man, a Spider-Man villain, appeared on Fantastic Four. During the Phoenix Saga on X-Men, Juggernaut was thrown into the Atlantic. His hand can be seen emerging from the water in New York on Fantastic Four.
So even with some differences (like, say, how the shows handled Captain America), those five seem connected. Silver Surfer definitely isn't (Spider-Man Unlimited is open for debate).
Phew, sorry there. Anyway, The PJs and Futurama are connected. The PJs manhole cover was seen on Futurama, and I believe Fry appeared on a milk carton on the PJs (so basically, Futurama takes place 1,000 years after the PJs but in the same universe).

The New Scooby-Doo Movies managed to have the gang co-exist with Speed Buggy as well as Josie and the Pussycats and Jeannie and Babu. The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour also had the gang make a few guest appearances in the latter series. And Scooby's All-Star Laff-A-Lympics managed to have over 45 H-B characters together including Grape Ape, Mumbly, and the stars from Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, and QuickDraw McGraw's series. Fred Flintstone, Barney Rubble, and Jabberjaw also made a few appearances here.
Space Ghost was also the center of a number of H-B action star crossovers. In the Council of Doom arc, he met Mightor and Shazzan (via time travel) and Jan, Jace, and Blip met Moby Dick and his team. Space Ghost also met the Herculoids and they would later be seen together a few times in the 80's Space Stars series, which had a few crossovers with the Teen Force and Space Ace, Astro and the Space Mutts.

My two cents thrown in...
In the "Simpsons" universe, "Futurama" doesn't exist (or is just a TV show); presumably that Bender robot cameo is just an "Earth-Simpsons" version of Bender (but not "our" Bender).
In the "Futurama" universe, the Simpsons are only fictional cartoon and comic book characters (Fry was a big fan of both the show and comic). The Simpsons comic books have shown a few crossovers between the two realities (a la the classic comic book story "The Flash of Two Worlds").
The Simpsons universe apparently has counterparts of Archie Andrews and his friends (of "Archie" fame), the KOTH cast, and Jay Sherman ("The Critic"), though I assume that, like the "Bender" robot, they're just the "Earth-Simpsons" counterparts of "our" versions of Jay, Hank, Archie and company.
Others:
Fairly Oddparents and Jimmy Neutron actually existed in seperate realities, per that special----they just happened to cross universes to meet each other.
The Warner Bros. universe seems to consist of:
Looney Tunes
Tiny Toon Adventures
Taz-Mania
Animaniacs
Loonatics Unleashed (as a possible/alternate future of the present-day universe)
Pinky and the Brain (thanks to its shameful spinoff, Pinky Elmyra & the Brain)
Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries
Duck Dodgers (in a possible/alternate future, assuming it's not just a TV show Daffy and Porky star in)
Histeria and Freakazoid might be included as well.
I don't consider Baby Looney Tunes as "canonical"---among other reasons, they wouldn't have had (non-experimental) television sets in Bugs' "childhood". From what I saw of this show, this world has its own version of "Ron Pickles" (the "ya lousy hockeypuck" comedian the Warners met in "Animaniacs" once) and Granny (who's much older than the infant Bugs, etc. in the series).
Re: The Flintstones/Jetsons: Shows I'd consider in their universe include:
- The Flintstones' various spinoffs
- The Roman Holidays (since it follows along the same "20th century in another time-era" track)
- The Jetsons
- Astro's Space Pups (sp?; a late 70's cartoon backup where Astro joins a space canine patrol headed by a constantly-annoyed-by-their-antics human)
- The Herculoids (IIRC a few of the characters made a cameo once on "Astro's Space Pups")
- Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels (since "The Flintstone Comedy Show" of the 80's shows Cavey existed in the Flintstones' time as the "world's first superhero", though a time-travel episode of "Teen Angels" shows him coming IIRC from a slightly more primitive time than the Flintstones' era...perhaps he's long-lived?)

Sharing a style or production crew does not mean that two shows share their "version" of our world. Nor does a reference. NOR DO ALL CAMEO APPEARANCES.
The Simpsons does not exist in the same world as the Hills. Their appearance was a sight gag. They are from entirely different continuities. And even with a whole episode devoted to him, the same goes for Jay Sherman. He's a character from a different universe making an appearance in the Simpsons one. OUTSIDE THAT EPISODE, they do not share the same reality.
And of all things, the PJ's manhole cover ESPECIALLY doesn't mean anything! It's only a minor joke. And heck, does that manhole cover even exist in the PJ's itself? No. It's their logo. Super didn't have his face on a real manhole cover in his city.

Ok, I've figured it out with the Cartoon Cartoons. As said before, Johnny Bravo, Batman, Powerpuff Girls, Dexter's Lab, Samarai Jack, and any Hanna-Barbera show all exist in the same reality (except certant shows like Fantastic Four. Batman cannot exist in the same reality as marvel superheroes.) Throw I am Weasel Cow and Chicken, Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy and Evil Con Carne in the list. Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends*and Juniper Lee both exist in worlds that Powerpuff Girls is just a show (thus cancelling out the rest), but both seperate from each other. Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi exists in a world where Teen Titans is eather a real superhero group, or is a tv show. Ed, Edd, and Eddy is possibly in the Fosters world (maybe Plank is an imaginary friend?). Kids Next Door and Camp Lazlo are still up for question.
My next post may be about the Nicktoons.
* - The world of Fosters DOES have a Townsville, but the movie shows The Powerpuff Girls is a show by saying the Mojo Jojo friend was an unoriginal friend copied off of TV. Wait... what if the kid saw a news report! :eek:

Presumably, "Earth-Simpsons" 's version of "Futurama" isn't an exact match of the real version (i.e., Homer probably gets to see "Family Guy" references or something instead of "Simpsons" references in his world's version of "Futurama"). :-)

Launchpad McQuack from Duck Tales became sidekick to Darkwing Duck, where Gizmoduck also appeared from time to time as one of the Justice Ducks as well as being a regular on DT.

Also, would you ount any group that B&B have seen on tv as a link to any other show that may have featured them?
Do any real people connect the shows, such as those wo may have been on both South Park and the Simpsons (among others)?
This is kind of a stretch, but...
Beavis and Butthead - Spongebob (see the "Goofy Goober Rock" scene in TSBSP Movie).
I'll have to say that Jimmy Neutron and FOP are not of the same universe. By that logic/scenario, all toons are connected, since Jimmy had to cross through another universe.

All the Disney characters exist in one universal. All the Warner characters exist in one universal. Both sets of characters exist in Toontown, therefore both are connected. Oh yeah, don't forget the other sets of characters from the "Roger Rabbit" universe. But, simply, I just think all the cartoon characters exist in a place called Toontown, just in different parts.
But, here are ones that are very closely related: "Snoopy" and "Garfield" (they must be, they know of each other), "The Road Rovers" and "The Swat Kats", all the video game characters (refer to "Captain N and the Game Master"), the "Disney" characters, the "Warner" characters, the "MGM" characters, the "Universal" characters, the "Hanna Barbera" characters, the "Nickelodeon" characters, the "Cartoon Cartoon" characters, the "Anime" characters, all the "Muppets" (ALL THE MUPPETS), need I go on?
By the way, this will seem very silly, and I do not know why I ever asked this. But, long ago, I used to ask if all the movie monsters (Freddy, Jason, Chucky, Pinhead, etc.) exist all in the same world. Reflecting on that, I realize that all of them come from our universe, the human world, but are they all part of our universe? Geez, if they do, then the universe must be one big monster universe.

It was in Joker's Favor. In one scene, one of Joker's goons was reading a TTA comic.
As I recall, a TTA comic was also featured in "On Leather Wings," in which a security guard could be seen reading it and laughing uproariously.

In one episode of Darkwing Duck, Darkwing's costume ripped and he had a TaleSpin shirt underneath. Also, in the episode where the cartoon creator built a device to tap into different universes, they had Darkwing and Chip 'N Dale's Rescue Rangers existing in separate worlds.
Inspector Gadget exists as a television show in Heathcliff and I believe a few other DIC shows.
I don't think it's been mentioned yet, but Batman and Robin, the Penguin and the Joker all exist in Scooby Doo's world.
Also, I believe Peabody and Sherman exist only as fiction in the Bullwinkle universe (and vice versa).

I already mentioned this when I connected almost all the Hanna-Barbera shows to most of the Cartoon Cartoons.
Oh, here's a interesting fact: In an episode of KOFH, Hank and Bobby went to an auto shop. In an episode of the Simpsons, Homer and Bart walked past a shop that has the EXACT SAME name and logo!
This, however does NOT connect the two.
(I noticed this because my local Fox affiliate showed both episodes on the same day once.)

Also, I think the A-Team is real in the Alvin and the Chipmunks universe. In the episode with Mr. T, I don't believe there was any indication that he was an actor. Of course, I haven't seen that show in years, so my memories could be a little cloudy.

Watching the Adventures of Hoppity Hooper, (http://www.toonarific.com/show.php?show_id=99) I think I remember seeing an episode with Boris Badenov and Natasha as the villains. That show was a great many years ago, so I'm honestly not sure if my memory is playing tricks on me.

Dexter's Laboratory & Powerpuff Girls: The Justice Friends (minus Krunk) appeared in one episode of the Powerpuff Girls, Dexter made a cameo in another Powerpuff Girls episode, and in one episode of Dexter, he screamed out "Townsville's in trouble!".
Also, I think The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy fits into the Hanna-Barbera universe (see "Irwin Gets a Clue".)

Ok, ok, I was wrong. I'll admit defeat. :p

Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures (the 1987-1988 series produced by Ralph Bakshi) is in the same continuity as the classic Terrytoons like the original Mighty Mouse, Gandy Goose and Sourpuss, Deputy Dog, and the Mighty Heroes.

Tiny Toons-Animaniacs-Pinky & The Brain: Ralph the Guard went from Tiny Toons to A!, then Buster, Babs, and Plucky showed up for a cameo, and Elmyra guest starred in a Mindy short before being added to Pinky & The Brain's cast later on. Had Freakazoid lasted longer, it might have been considered in continuity as well. Actually, the Brain has appeared a few times (Pinky was in one of them), and Wakko has made a brief appearance.
DuckTales and Darkwing Duck
The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy and Evil ConCarne
He-Man and She-RaThose are just beyond obvious.
