Richard Belzer played the character John Munch first in Homicide: Life on the Street and then in Law and Order: SVU. Through various crossovers and cameos, the character John Munch has appeared in 10 television shows, from Arrested Development to the X-Files.
To add to that, Homicide had a crossover episode with a show called St. Elsewhere. St. Elsewhere’s series finale implied that the entire series had been a fantasy taking place in the mind of a boy with autism named Tommy Westphall.
So with all that in mind, we can extrapolate that…
St. Elsewhere Homicide Every version of Law and Order The Wire Arrested Development Sesame Street The X-Files American Dad
…plus more all take place in the same universe and that universe is contained in a neurodivergent boy’s head.
Surprised nobody mentioned that Machete is the uncle in Spy Kids.
Spy Kids is where the Machete character first appears

WTF WE SHOULD’VE GOTTEN THAT
One of my personal favorites, and technically an example of media universe crossovers though probably not quite what one would think of, is the Japanese manga series Saint Young Men, which is about Jesus and Buddha sharing an apartment in modern-day Tokyo.
My Hero Academia is part of the Marvel universe.
All Might appeared in the Deadpool manga
Gravity Falls and Rick and Morty
Near the end of S1 of gravity falls the main character looses something in a portal, while in an early episode of R and M the same objects fall out of a portal.
People argue the Alien and Blade Runner universes are connected. I don’t remember the arguments off the top of my head but they are pretty easy to find online.
It seemed like a lot of Easter eggs though. Kind of like finding Duke Nukem’s body appearing in Serious Sam 2
There are a lot of connections that Ridley Scott added in. My headcanon is that Blade Runner is set in the future of Alien once Androids like David or Ash become more common.
Tyrell Corp = Weyland-Yutani, basically.
And in the pilot of Firefly, during the Battle of Serenity Valley, the cannon that Malcolm Reynolds briefly mans bears a Weyland-Yutani logo.
Predator, Aliens, Blade Runner, and Firefly are all in the same Universe.
Fortnite.
Only in Fortnite can Spiderman punch Goku while the Demogorgon (Stranger Things) chases them down as Radiohead performs a live concert on “virtual stage”.
At this point, the entire point of Fortnite is to be a kind of Super Smash Bros across the cultural zeitgeist in general. It sits at a strange intersection of fans: music fans get official concerts delivered in a virtual environment. Comic book nerds get their crossovers. Movies, TV, etc. etc. And now WWE fans get some wrestling stuff happening inside of Fortnite.
Futurama and Adventure Time. And the only reason they did that was the voice of Bender also voiced Jake the dog. Apparently he didn’t like working for Adventure Time despite its larger fanbase.
