The Wire and The X-Files Exist in the Same Universe
It's hard to believe that while a gritty drug war rages in Baltimore, Md. (as seen in The Wire), the government is devoting considerable resources to planning a secret alien invasion (as seen in The X-Files). And yet, if you look at the cold, hard facts, that's exactly what's going on in those shows.
It all comes down to this dude:
Detective John Munch is best known as a character in the interminable Law & Order franchise, but he first appeared on a different cop show called Homicide: Life on the Street. Homicide was based on a book by David Simon and inspired by many of the same people and events Simon would later use as the basis for HBO's The Wire. In the last season of The Wire, Simon confirmed the connection between the shows by having Detective Munch make a short appearance.

But that's not all: Before Homicide was canceled, the show crossed over with The X-Files in an episode where the Lone Gunmen, the conspiracy theorists who occasionally assist Mulder and Scully, uncover a government plot to test an experimental nerve gas in Baltimore. The Gunmen try to warn the authorities, but Detective Munch doesn't buy any of that conspiracy crap and locks them up. This isn't some inconsequential little cameo, by the way -- the whole episode is framed by Munch interrogating the Lone Gunmen.
The implications are vast: What other toxic agents has the government been secretly testing in Baltimore, a city that The Wire paints as crippled by drug use? Could this explain why they let Sgt. Colvin get away with his "Hamsterdam" experiment for so long in Season 3? The massive coverup at the end of Season 5 had to be a piece of cake to a government that is already hiding the existence of everything from aliens to "Super Soldiers." Also, this would explain why the characters in The Wire always have such a hard time getting the Feds to cooperate with their drug investigations -- they have much, much bigger fish to fry. Like, galaxy big.
We could take this even further if we took into consideration the fact that Homicide: Life on the Street can also be linked to St. Elsewhere, of all things, through two characters who appeared on both shows. St. Elsewhere famously ended when the whole show was revealed to take place in the imagination of an autistic child -- and, by extension, so would The X-Files and The Wire.
In fact, according to Dwayne McDuffie's Grand Unification Theory, "The last five minutes of St. Elsewhere is the only television show, ever. Everything else is a daydream."

the fresh prince one is stupid.
Jenny was a smutbucket, so the Gump theory is plausible.
Fresh Prince is loosely based on one of the creators' lives, so no dice.
Back to the Future makes sense. If everything you do ends in failure, as a man of science, why stake your life on a statistically probable outcome of death unless you wanted to die?
Pokemon makes sense.
Inspector Gadget would be awesome, but it's superficial bullshit.
Tarantino's the GAWD. I knew about Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs being connected, but all of his films? Damn.

Ghostbusters Crossing the Streams
The Theory: The Ghostbusters die after crossing the streams, and the scene where they are celebrated by the city is the last piece of glory they receive before passing on.
Why it’s Possible: Doesn’t Egon say more than once “never” to cross the streams? And if you need evidence try Ghostbusters 2. Think about it. Ghostbusters 2 could very well have taken place in purgatory, repeating the events of the first movie with certain details changed, explaining why no one seems to remember the Stay Puft Marshmallow man attacking New York in the first movie. It’s just very hard to believe that when Egon says never to do something that all of a sudden he’s off the hook? Isn’t that a little too easy?
Batman (1989 one)
The Theory: The Joker didn’t actually kill Batman’s parents, and Batman only sees the face of his parent’s killer in every criminal he sees.
Why It’s Possible: This is a common part of Batman’s psyche in the comic books and Burton did a pretty good job of it in the movie. Also, in the movie young Bruce doesn’t REALLY see the murder. Also, The Joker killing his parents isn’t really essential to the plot of the movie if you’re going by the fact that Batman is a hero and kills criminals. He’s not supposed to have vendettas.
