Jay and Silent Bob's View Askewed Television Crossover Universe
Well, we hit 420,000 views on the website, and for some reason, that number makes me think of Jay & Silent Bob.
The View Askewniverse movies are all connected, mostly by Jay And Silent Bob appearing in every movie. Aside from that, there are numerous events, elements, and secondary characters that intertwine throughout all six films. It also helps that the movies take place in the same state.
Jan 1998--CHASING AMY--In the reality of the film UNDERCOVER BROTHER, Family Matters is just a television show, as it can be seen on TV in one scene. other movies where Urkel is mentioned as fictional are F.A.R.T.: THE MOVIE, SISTER ACT 2: BACK IN THE HABIT, PROBLEM CHILD, ABOVE THE RIM, BLANKMAN, CHASING AMY, TROJAN WAR, CAN'T HARDLY WAIT, KILLER FLICK, THE BREAKS, THE WOOD, BIG FAT LIAR, TWO DAYS, LOVE DON'T COST A THING, THE BENCHWARMERS, THE EX, I COULD NEVER BE YOUR WOMAN, THE BIG LEBOWSKI, SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT, and LOVE & BASKETBALL. Films that have referenced FULL HOUSE as fictional include: DEATH TO SMOOCHY, SECONDARY HIGH, KICKIN' IT OLD SKOOL, HIGH FIVE, and THE ROCKER. BOY MEETS WORLD HAS BEEN REFERENCED IN FILMS LIKE HACKERS. Brian O'Halloran plays Jim Hicks, another of Dante's cousins. Jason Lee plays Banky Edwards in Chasing Amy and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Ben Affleck plays Holden McNeil in Chasing Amy and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Dwight Ewell plays Hooper X in Chasing Amy and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Alyssa Jones' best friends were Caitlin Bree and Julie Dwyer. An on-screen promise that Jay and Silent Bob will return in "Dogma". The Diner Scene from Chasing Amy

~Mar 1999 Clerks: The Comic Book
1999--THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT--In the supermarket scene near the start of the film, you hear in the background, the line "You're Rick Derris?". This is taken from Kevin Smith's 1994 film Clerks. (1994).
1999--END OF DAYS--The Buddy Christ, unveiled by Cardinal Glick as the new image of Christ was also used in End of Days.
1999--NEW YORK TIMES--In 2001, The New York Times ran a comic book telling how Smith met and first kissed his wife Jennifer Schwalbach Smith. Jay and Silent Bob appear in one panel, promoting the then-forthcoming film Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back.
Dec 1999 Clerks: The Holiday Special
Caitlin Bree released from Marlboro (assumed)
During 2000--SCREAM 3--I believed that the events of Scream 3 and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back were set to occur about the same time. Jay and Silent Bob are seen in Hollywood in Scream 3 and run into Gail Weathers. Then in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, the two crash the set of Stab 3. However, the official View Askew website says that Stab 3 was released a year before the events of Jay and Strike Back. Doesn't make sense to me, but it is what it is. "Stab 3" released
2000--VULGAR--A newscast mentions Walt Flanagan's dog, mentioned in passing by Jay in "Rats."
During 2000 Clerks: The Animated Series (all episodes)--Jay & Silent Bob teach a monkey to smoke
2000--CLERKS--"The Clipshow Wherein Dante and Randal Are Locked in the Freezer and Remember Some of the Great Moments in Their Lives"--Ivan, I finally found another way to bring in Jay and Silent Bob, so I no longer relegate them to the DC Universe. This also brings in Scream, by the way. Jerry Seinfeld (the character) appears in the cartoon.
2000 “Boys & Girls”, “Bounce”, “Legend of Bagger Vance”,
“Reindeer Games” and “All the Pretty Horses released
2000 to 2006--YES DEAR--Yes, Dear season 4, episode 19, Kevin Smith appears as himself in the show, but in the end does a little skit as Silent Bob.
2001--JAY AND SILENT BOB STRIKE BACK--Didn't catch this until last night, but the Cirrus X3 rocketpack can be seen in the bluntcave set in "Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back". Figures, because Kevin Smith is a Rocketeer fan. Nice easter egg. Ivan Ronald Schablotski, now that Jay and Silent Bob have entered the TVCU, I've accepted the Scooby-Doo crossover, especially after i just rewatched the scene, which actually does not start and end at the same bench like I had previously mis-remembered. There are several references to the first film, including the #37 firetruck, Randal's line "You're not supposed to be here today", and more. A Quick Stop customer asks Dante, "Are you even supposed to be here today?" Brodie says, "Say, would you like a chocolate-covered pretzel?" Alyssa Jones believes that "Bluntman and Chronic: The Movie" was better than Mallrats(1995). Tricia Jones tells her sister Alyssa that "Chasing Amy" would not work as a film. Matt Damon tells Ben Affleck that he cannot believe that he talked him into makingDogma (1999). "Moonraper" released
“Bluntman & Chronic Strike Back” released
“Good Will Hunting 2: Hunting Season” released
"Untitled Wes Craven Horror Movie" released*

July 2004--I LOVE THE '90S--VH1’s I Love the '90s ("Jay and Silent Bob Re-name Your Favorite TV Show" and "Guys We'd Go Gay For")
2004--JERSEY GIRL--In the scene where Ollie breaks down crying while feeding the newborn baby, a small statue of the 'Buddy Christ' from "Dogma" is visible in the background on the shelves.
2005--COBRA BITES--A "Buddy Christ" dashboard figure is visible in the van.
2005 to 2009--MY NAME IS EARL--"When Earl and Randy are returning the items they stole from the convenience store, Earl refers to it as the Quick Stop, the store made famous in Kevin Smith's Clerks (1994) and referenced in the other movies in which both Jason Lee and Ethan Suplee starred."
2005 to Present--SUPERNATURAL--Wait. Gabriel is Loki. Loki is Gabriel. OK. I'm really glad that the Avengers is over in the Whoniverse. Now chew on this; the movie DOGMA had an angel named Loki! Who laid down his sword and chose not to take sides, getting banished to earth. After getting Drunk
2006--KISSES AND CAROMS--Rufus the thirteenth apostle refers to Chris Rocks charecter.
March 2007--FAMILY GUY--"Bill and Peter's Bogus Journey"--In a cutaway, The Thing from The Fantastic Four is a victim of Lorena Bobbitt, who in 1993 cut her husband’s penis off. The orange rock penis is possibly a reference to the 1995 movie Mallrats, where Brodie Bruce asks Stan Lee if Thing’s penis is made of orange rock. Bill Clinton’s “exit polling” joke is cut short on FOX to remove Bill’s line, “It depends on what the definition of the word ‘jizz’ is” before it cuts to Lois saying that she was a worse wife than Lorena Bobbitt when she married the Thing.
2007--CLERKS II--Thirteen years after the events in Clerks, and five years after the events in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Clerks II, released in 2006, takes place. Now in their early 30s, Jay and Silent Bob had recently bought a car, but they were pulled over for driving with a deployed airbag. During the search, the police found a stash of marijuana and they were sentenced to six months of rehabilitation, where they become devout sober Christians. Once out of rehab, they are clean, but continue to deal while trying to teach the word of God, in a manner similar to evangelists. In one scene, Jay even suggests to a couple of buyers that they should read the "Holy Fucking" Bible. The Quick Stop where Dante worked was burned in a fire due to Randal leaving the coffee pot on, and Randal and he moved over to the Mooby's fast food restaurant. Jay and Silent Bob follow them there. In the beginning of the film, Jay expresses some disillusionment at being a drug dealer and weighs on other ideas of what to do in life. At one point during the movie, Jay, knowing boredom is the first step to relapse, dances to the song "Goodbye Horses" by Q Lazzarus after Silent Bob puts the tape in the boom box. He parodies exactly the same dance done by Buffalo Bill in The Silence of the Lambs, complete with the "tuck", although it is alleged Jay has been doing this in real life before Silence of the Lambs came out. Near the end of the film, they are jailed with Dante, Elias, and Randal, in which the latter hired a donkey show to celebrate Dante moving away. Jay and Silent Bob were charged for possession of drugs, which violated their probation. They bear witness to Dante and Randal's fight in the jailhouse, but at first provide no meaningful help, with Silent Bob unable to come up with his usual wisdom and instead criticizing Jay for never contributing to a conversation. Randal wants to reopen the Quick Stop with Dante, but neither of them has the money, so Jay and Silent Bob offer them some of the Bluntman and Chronic movie royalty money under the condition that the two are allowed to loiter outside the shop and that the police cannot be called to arrest them. After the Quick Stop is reopened, Jay and Silent Bob return to where they started so many years ago. There are several references to the first film, including the #37 firetruck, Randal's line "You're not supposed to be here today", and more. Emma knees Dante in the balls and says "You fucker". So does Gwen to Silent Bob in Mallrats when he burst in to the changing room! According to the official View Askew timeline on their website, Clerks was 1995, so this is supposed to be 13 years later, 2008. But that same official website timeline places Jay and Silent Bob in 2001, and this is supposed to be five years after that, in 2006. So I'm taking the average, and placing it in 2007.
The View Askewniverse movies are all connected, mostly by Jay And Silent Bob appearing in every movie. Aside from that, there are numerous events, elements, and secondary characters that intertwine throughout all six films. It also helps that the movies take place in the same state.
Jay and Silent Bob are fictional characters portrayed by Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith, respectively, in Kevin Smith's View Askewniverse, a fictional universe created and used in most of the films, comics, and television programs written and produced by Smith, beginning with Clerks.
Jay and Silent Bob have appeared in most of Smith's films, with the exceptions of Jersey Girl, Zack and Miri Make a Porno, Cop Out, Red State, and Tusk. The characters are shown spending most of their time selling marijuana in front of the convenience store in the Clerks films. In Clerks: The Animated Series, they were also shown selling illegal fireworks.
From me:
Shermer, Illinois is in the America of the TVCU, despite the fact that Jay and Silent Bob couldn't find it. John Hughes once said that all of his projects were meant to exist in the same shared reality, and since I honor writer's intent here in the TVCU, anything with Hughes' name in the credits as writer, director, or producer automatically makes it in. Not that Hughes didn't help us out, by placing most of his works in the same fictional Shermer, a suburb of Chicago. This includes the Brat Pack films, the Vacation films, the Home Alone films, and others.
There is plenty of silliness in the TVCU naturally. Austin Powers exists in the TVCU. The Muppets exist in the TVCU. Jay and Silent Bob, Wayne's World, Scary Movie, the Pink Panther, Get Smart, ect. They are just sort of cartoonish because the TVCU isn't the real world.
Dawn of Time God creates universe
A Long Time Ago--STAR WARS INFINITIES--They also appeared in the Star Wars Infinities comic Tag and Bink where they say they are from the Jedi Council.
33 A.D.--TOTAL FILM--In a 2005 issue of Total Film, a comic strip illustrating Kevin Smith's version of the Passion of the Christ was published, featuring Jay and Silent Bob in the final panel.
1960--PSYCHO--Morley is a fictional brand of cigarette that has appeared in various television shows, films, and video games that otherwise have no connection to each other. The iconic, fictional brand packaging resembles the original packaging of the Marlboro cigarette brand. The name "Morley" is a play on "Marleys", a nickname for Marlboro cigarettes. Morleys appear at least as far back as 1960, in Alfred Hitchcock's film Psycho. There is also a Morley Lights version, in a gold and white package (similar to Marlboro Lights), marked "Lights." Morleys have appeared primarily in TV shows, and at times in movies, music videos, and other media, as both a prop and a plot element. one of them listed her is the afro music video because i got high which guest stars Jay and Silent bob

But will Brown be able to stop the Lost Boys before time runs out?

This was a April Fool's Day joke that got lots of us very excited when we thought it was real. However, it is real enough for the TVCU. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was a graphic novel which appears in Crossovers. Note only the first two volumes (and this) are in the TVCU. Kesuke Miyagi is from THE KARATE KID. Thus this brings in the whole film series. THE LOST BOYS is from a series of films, which are now brought in. (Some have suggested the town of those films is really Sunnydale.) Oscar Goldman is from CHARLIE'S ANGELS, which is already in. Mr. Han is from FAST TIMES AS RIDGEMONT HIGH, bringing that film in. Emmet Brown is from BACK TO THE FUTURE, which is already in. Tony Montana is from SCARFACE, bringing that film in. Jack Burton is from BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA, which is in Crossovers. Angus MacGyver is from MACGYVER, which bring in this series, and MACGRUBER. We know where B.A. Baracus is from, I hope by now. Lisa is from WEIRD SCIENCE. This is the film version, which confirms Shermer, IL in the TVCU (thus confirming that Jay and Silent Bob are not good at navigation.) The TV Lisa is also in the TVCU. Eventually, I will do a Shermer blog, and straighten out how both versions coexist. Likely the show is in the TVCU2.
Pictures of former League members....Top Left is Jill Monroe from CHARLIE'S ANGELS. I think the top center guy is SERPICO. Can someone verify that for me? Top right is Rocky Balboa from the ROCKY FILMS. Bottom left is John Shaft from SHAFT. Bottom middle is the Bandit from SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT. Bottom right is Steve Austin from the SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN.

Apr 15/95--MALLRATS--A mall Easter Bunny appears in MALLRATS. Walt Flanagan plays Walt the Fanboy in Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, Clerks: The Animated Series, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Bryan Johnson plays Steve-Dave in all the View Askew films but Clerks and Clerks II. Brian O'Halloran plays Gil Hicks, cousin of Dante Hicks. Jason Lee plays Brodie Bruce in Mallrats and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Renee Humphrey plays Tricia Jones in Mallrats and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Malcolm Ingram plays "Creepy staring guy" in Mallrats and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. This is a prequel to Clerks. Stan Lee plays himself. Stan Lee has also played a fictional version of himself in the TVCU in "The Big Bang Theory" , "Entourage" "Chuck" , "The Simpsons" , Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff, and "Muppet Babies" . He also has many counterparts throughout the multiverse. Click here for more. Rene wears a Degrassi Junior High jacket. At the end of the credits, it says that Jay and Silent Bob will appear in Chasing Amy. Mention of "Pendant Publishing." Gov. Dalton appears in Mallrats and Dogma, though played by different actresses in each. This movie claims at the end that Jay and Silent Bob have a future story with an orangatane named Susane. This story is told in the comic book, Chasing Dogma, and then again, differently, in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. For the TVCU, I'm accepting the film as canon, and the comic in the alternate Comic Book View Askewniverse divergent timeline. -”Truth or Date” held in Eden Prarie Mall
-T.S. Quint & Brandi Svenning engaged-Jay & Silent Bob beat up Easter Bunny
Apr 16/95--CLERKS--Clerks, released in 1994, is the first film to feature Jay and Silent Bob. In the View Askewniverse continuity, it takes place the day after Mallrats. Jay and Silent Bob return to their primary business location in front of Quick Stop. Throughout the day, they are seen dancing, loitering, and harassing passersby. Silent Bob enters the store to buy powdered sugar while Jay goes inside to steal food. They also deal marijuana to various pedestrians (including Willam Black), much to the chagrin of Quick Stop clerk Dante Hicks. In addition, the duo hangs out with Silent Bob's Russian cousin Olaf, who runs a heavy metal band and is looking to do a gig in New York City. Aware of Dante's dilemma with Caitlin Bree and Veronica, Silent Bob says to him, "You know, there's a million fine-looking women in the world, dude. But they don't all bring you lasagna at work. Most of 'em just cheat on you." The end credits of Clerks contains a reference to the return of Jay and Silent Bob in Dogma. Walt Flanagan plays "Woolen Cap Smoker" in Clerks and Clerks II. Brian O'Halloran plays Dante Hicks in Clerks, Clerks: The Animated Series, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, and Clerks II. Jeff Anderson plays Randal Graves in Clerks, Clerks: The Animated Series, Jay and Silent Strike Back, and Clerks II. Grace Smith plays "Milk Maid" in Clerks and Clerks II. Scott Mosier plays William Black in Clerks, Mallrats, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. -Veronica Loughran breaks up with Dante Hicks

Apr 16/95--CLERKS: THE LOST SCENE--Clerks: The Lost Scene is an animated short that was produced for Clerks. X (10th anniversary DVD), based on a scene previously off-screen in the original film and only seen in the comics. Joey Lauren Adams plays Alyssa Jones in Clerks: The Lost Scene, Chasing Amy, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Alyssa asks Dante why he smells like shoe polish, a running gag from this movie. Talks about how Julie died and the game show she was supposed to appear on, both events from this movie. Randall calls Alyssa "finger cuffs" a nickname her character has in Chasing Amy. Randall has a trading card of God and 2 angels that resemble Bartleby and Loki from this movie

Dec 1995 Boregasm: The Movie released
FROM DUSK TILL DAWN (FILM)
Release Date: 1996 (Contemporary Setting)
Series: The Films of Tarantino and Rodriguez
The Story: Two killers abduct a family as hostages as they escape to Mexico. Oh, and vampires.
Notes: This film is followed by From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money and From Dusk Till Dawn 3: The Hangman’s Daughter. There is also a video game sequel. This film also features Big Kahuna Burgers which originate from Pulp Fiction, Chongo Beer and the crotch gun from Desperado, and reporter Kelly Houge from Curdled. Quentin Tarantino has been very clear in interviews that his films all coexist within a “Tarantino Universe”. To this end, he fills his films with comment elements to link them together. Thus, this film is linked to the greater Tarantino Universe. Particularly, this film is linked to Pulp Fiction. Pulp Fiction includes another element not included in this film, which are Red Apple Cigarettes. That fictional brand has been linked to other stories by other authors, thus linking Tarantino’s films to the Horror Universe. This film was remade as a television series in 2014. This film has been referenced as fictional or paid homage to numerous times in other films and on television. It has also been spoofed in Dogma, Scooby-Doo, Ridskolan 2, and The Hostage II.
1996--DRAWING FLIES--Kevin Smith is credited as Silent Bob in the film. Jason Mewes also appears in the film, but as a different character. Smith's character wears the same leather outfit he wore in Mallrats

Jan 1998--CHASING AMY--In the reality of the film UNDERCOVER BROTHER, Family Matters is just a television show, as it can be seen on TV in one scene. other movies where Urkel is mentioned as fictional are F.A.R.T.: THE MOVIE, SISTER ACT 2: BACK IN THE HABIT, PROBLEM CHILD, ABOVE THE RIM, BLANKMAN, CHASING AMY, TROJAN WAR, CAN'T HARDLY WAIT, KILLER FLICK, THE BREAKS, THE WOOD, BIG FAT LIAR, TWO DAYS, LOVE DON'T COST A THING, THE BENCHWARMERS, THE EX, I COULD NEVER BE YOUR WOMAN, THE BIG LEBOWSKI, SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT, and LOVE & BASKETBALL. Films that have referenced FULL HOUSE as fictional include: DEATH TO SMOOCHY, SECONDARY HIGH, KICKIN' IT OLD SKOOL, HIGH FIVE, and THE ROCKER. BOY MEETS WORLD HAS BEEN REFERENCED IN FILMS LIKE HACKERS. Brian O'Halloran plays Jim Hicks, another of Dante's cousins. Jason Lee plays Banky Edwards in Chasing Amy and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Ben Affleck plays Holden McNeil in Chasing Amy and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Dwight Ewell plays Hooper X in Chasing Amy and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Alyssa Jones' best friends were Caitlin Bree and Julie Dwyer. An on-screen promise that Jay and Silent Bob will return in "Dogma". The Diner Scene from Chasing Amy
LATE 1990S--CLERKS. (COMICS)--Questionable. Particularly Chasing Dogma, since mos of that story was later recycled in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Some of these stories can fit in the TVCU, the rest would be in the comic book View Askewniverse, which includes all the films prior to Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back. Tricia Jones kicks Jay & Silent Bob out
Boregasm ends run on NY Times ListJay & Silent Bob return Suzanne to scientist
Jay & Silent Bob go to Chicago
Holden McNeil sells rights to Banky Edwards
1998 to Present--THE SECRET DIARY OF DESMOND PFEIFFER--So if this show is based on "an actual historic document" according to it's own opening and they watch it in Clerks: The Animated Series and there's even Desmond Pfeiffer Civil War burgers fast food places does this count of a crossover?
1998--DOGMA--Jay and Silent Bob went looking for Shermer, and couldn't find it. They conclude it doesn't exist. Jay and Silent Bob have links to the TVCU as do Shermer. Perhaps they couldn't find it because they are idiots, but perhaps the town is in some strange temporal anomaly that sometimes causes it to shift in and out of existence. Rufus later reveals a secret from Bethany's past about a boy named Brian Johnson, which is the same name as a character from the John Hughes film The Breakfast Club (1985) set in Shermer. Brian O'Halloran plays Grant Hicks, another of Dante's cousins. Alanis Morissette plays God in Dogma and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Note that in Dogma, God has been absent, sort of like Supernatural. In the end of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, which was supposed to be the final View Askewniverse film, God closes a book called View Askewniverse. This could be taken as God ending the universe. But going back to Supernatural, where God has been shown to write a series of books called Supernatural and a new project called Revolution, I'm going to presume that this means that God also wrote the View Askeniverse, likely through a muse, to a prophet named Kevin Smith. Kevin Smith exists in the same universe as Jay and Silent Bob, as demonstrated in Yes Dear and the New York Times. Kevin Smith would go on to later write and direct "JAY AND SILENT BOB GO CANADIAN, EH?", as seen in Degrassi: The Next Generation. It's presumed that this was Kevin Smith's first Jay and Silent Bob project that was not inspired by God. It's weird that Banky Edwards owned the rights to Bluntman and Chronic, which he co-created with Holden McNeil, but Kevin Smith was also making films about the duo and other people that existed in the real world. Jay wants to visit Quick Stop. On the train, Jay can be heard describing the events of Mallrats to Bartleby and Loki. Metatron is a majore character in this film. Metatron also appears in Metatron (2012), God's Diary Is Embarrassing (2012), Damned on Earth (2014) and "Supernatural". God also appears. God also appears in the TVCU in numerous films and shows, including "Cimarron Strip", True Grit, "Land of the Lost", "The Young Ones", "Miami Vice", Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey, "Family Guy" , "The Simpsons", "Supernatural" and more. For a full list, click here. Jay wants to visit Quick Stop. Buddy Christ adopted as Catholic mascot

~Mar 1999 Clerks: The Comic Book
1999--THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT--In the supermarket scene near the start of the film, you hear in the background, the line "You're Rick Derris?". This is taken from Kevin Smith's 1994 film Clerks. (1994).
1999--END OF DAYS--The Buddy Christ, unveiled by Cardinal Glick as the new image of Christ was also used in End of Days.
1999--NEW YORK TIMES--In 2001, The New York Times ran a comic book telling how Smith met and first kissed his wife Jennifer Schwalbach Smith. Jay and Silent Bob appear in one panel, promoting the then-forthcoming film Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back.
Dec 1999 Clerks: The Holiday Special
Caitlin Bree released from Marlboro (assumed)
During 2000--SCREAM 3--I believed that the events of Scream 3 and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back were set to occur about the same time. Jay and Silent Bob are seen in Hollywood in Scream 3 and run into Gail Weathers. Then in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, the two crash the set of Stab 3. However, the official View Askew website says that Stab 3 was released a year before the events of Jay and Strike Back. Doesn't make sense to me, but it is what it is. "Stab 3" released
2000--VULGAR--A newscast mentions Walt Flanagan's dog, mentioned in passing by Jay in "Rats."
During 2000 Clerks: The Animated Series (all episodes)--Jay & Silent Bob teach a monkey to smoke
2000--CLERKS--"The Clipshow Wherein Dante and Randal Are Locked in the Freezer and Remember Some of the Great Moments in Their Lives"--Ivan, I finally found another way to bring in Jay and Silent Bob, so I no longer relegate them to the DC Universe. This also brings in Scream, by the way. Jerry Seinfeld (the character) appears in the cartoon.
2000 “Boys & Girls”, “Bounce”, “Legend of Bagger Vance”,
“Reindeer Games” and “All the Pretty Horses released
2000 to 2006--YES DEAR--Yes, Dear season 4, episode 19, Kevin Smith appears as himself in the show, but in the end does a little skit as Silent Bob.
2001--JAY AND SILENT BOB STRIKE BACK--Didn't catch this until last night, but the Cirrus X3 rocketpack can be seen in the bluntcave set in "Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back". Figures, because Kevin Smith is a Rocketeer fan. Nice easter egg. Ivan Ronald Schablotski, now that Jay and Silent Bob have entered the TVCU, I've accepted the Scooby-Doo crossover, especially after i just rewatched the scene, which actually does not start and end at the same bench like I had previously mis-remembered. There are several references to the first film, including the #37 firetruck, Randal's line "You're not supposed to be here today", and more. A Quick Stop customer asks Dante, "Are you even supposed to be here today?" Brodie says, "Say, would you like a chocolate-covered pretzel?" Alyssa Jones believes that "Bluntman and Chronic: The Movie" was better than Mallrats(1995). Tricia Jones tells her sister Alyssa that "Chasing Amy" would not work as a film. Matt Damon tells Ben Affleck that he cannot believe that he talked him into makingDogma (1999). "Moonraper" released

2005--COBRA BITES--A "Buddy Christ" dashboard figure is visible in the van.
2005 to 2009--MY NAME IS EARL--"When Earl and Randy are returning the items they stole from the convenience store, Earl refers to it as the Quick Stop, the store made famous in Kevin Smith's Clerks (1994) and referenced in the other movies in which both Jason Lee and Ethan Suplee starred."
2005 to Present--SUPERNATURAL--Wait. Gabriel is Loki. Loki is Gabriel. OK. I'm really glad that the Avengers is over in the Whoniverse. Now chew on this; the movie DOGMA had an angel named Loki! Who laid down his sword and chose not to take sides, getting banished to earth. After getting Drunk
2006--KISSES AND CAROMS--Rufus the thirteenth apostle refers to Chris Rocks charecter.
March 2007--FAMILY GUY--"Bill and Peter's Bogus Journey"--In a cutaway, The Thing from The Fantastic Four is a victim of Lorena Bobbitt, who in 1993 cut her husband’s penis off. The orange rock penis is possibly a reference to the 1995 movie Mallrats, where Brodie Bruce asks Stan Lee if Thing’s penis is made of orange rock. Bill Clinton’s “exit polling” joke is cut short on FOX to remove Bill’s line, “It depends on what the definition of the word ‘jizz’ is” before it cuts to Lois saying that she was a worse wife than Lorena Bobbitt when she married the Thing.
2007--CLERKS II--Thirteen years after the events in Clerks, and five years after the events in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Clerks II, released in 2006, takes place. Now in their early 30s, Jay and Silent Bob had recently bought a car, but they were pulled over for driving with a deployed airbag. During the search, the police found a stash of marijuana and they were sentenced to six months of rehabilitation, where they become devout sober Christians. Once out of rehab, they are clean, but continue to deal while trying to teach the word of God, in a manner similar to evangelists. In one scene, Jay even suggests to a couple of buyers that they should read the "Holy Fucking" Bible. The Quick Stop where Dante worked was burned in a fire due to Randal leaving the coffee pot on, and Randal and he moved over to the Mooby's fast food restaurant. Jay and Silent Bob follow them there. In the beginning of the film, Jay expresses some disillusionment at being a drug dealer and weighs on other ideas of what to do in life. At one point during the movie, Jay, knowing boredom is the first step to relapse, dances to the song "Goodbye Horses" by Q Lazzarus after Silent Bob puts the tape in the boom box. He parodies exactly the same dance done by Buffalo Bill in The Silence of the Lambs, complete with the "tuck", although it is alleged Jay has been doing this in real life before Silence of the Lambs came out. Near the end of the film, they are jailed with Dante, Elias, and Randal, in which the latter hired a donkey show to celebrate Dante moving away. Jay and Silent Bob were charged for possession of drugs, which violated their probation. They bear witness to Dante and Randal's fight in the jailhouse, but at first provide no meaningful help, with Silent Bob unable to come up with his usual wisdom and instead criticizing Jay for never contributing to a conversation. Randal wants to reopen the Quick Stop with Dante, but neither of them has the money, so Jay and Silent Bob offer them some of the Bluntman and Chronic movie royalty money under the condition that the two are allowed to loiter outside the shop and that the police cannot be called to arrest them. After the Quick Stop is reopened, Jay and Silent Bob return to where they started so many years ago. There are several references to the first film, including the #37 firetruck, Randal's line "You're not supposed to be here today", and more. Emma knees Dante in the balls and says "You fucker". So does Gwen to Silent Bob in Mallrats when he burst in to the changing room! According to the official View Askew timeline on their website, Clerks was 1995, so this is supposed to be 13 years later, 2008. But that same official website timeline places Jay and Silent Bob in 2001, and this is supposed to be five years after that, in 2006. So I'm taking the average, and placing it in 2007.
2009--MAY - THE HORROR AT RED BANK - Ivan travels to Belfry NJ to investigate a possible Jersey Devil sighting but discovers instead a new costumed vigilante using the identity of the Nightgaunt. Ivan and Ford O'Donald pursue the Nightgaunt to Red Bank and suspect the 'hero' is an employee of Jay & Silent Bob's Secret Stash. They follow three suspects in hopes of discovering who it is and how he or she knows about nightgaunts; to this end they visit the Broadway Diner, the Quick Stop, and a Mooby's fast food restaurant. They do not find the Nightgaunt. though they do find Jesus, Carmen Sandiego, and Waldo. Abandoning their quest when Ivan is called to New York by the Ordnance, Ford returns to Belfry, where he has secretly been assuming the guise of the Nightgaunt inspired by dreams of winged faceless creatures attacking those who venture into forbidden lands.
Nightgaunt / Night-Gaunt first appeared in Lovecraft's 1929 -1930 poem FUNGI FROM YUGGOTH. The Quick Stop convenience store is the setting for the film CLERKS (1994). Jay & Silent Bob's Secret Stash was known as Brodie's Secret Stash when it was seen in the film JAY

c. May 16, 2012--DAREDEVIL # 13--Matt Murdock and Echo both shop at RST Video. Both Dante and Randall appear. This takes place after Clerks II, so this must be the rebuilt RST Video now owned by Dante and Randall. Note that Matt Murdock must be about 50-ish by this point, but due to his exceptional fitness and training, he still seems to be operating as Daredevil.
2012 to 2013--DON'T TRUST THE B--- IN APARTMENT 23--James Van Der Beek played himself as a regular character on Don't Trust the B in Apartment 23. He also played himself in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Since Jay and Silent Bob are in the TVCU, that also brings Don't Trust the B into the TVCU.

The Near Future--MOOSE JAWS--Allegedly, Silent Bob will die in this film.
Alternate Versions:
Yes, even these characters have counterparts in other realms.
Buffyverse--Demonic versions of Jay and Silent Bob can be seen in one panel on the second page of Angel: After the Fall issue #5, standing outside of a cafe in the safe haven of Silverlake. Writer Brian Lynch confirmed the reference and attributed their inclusion to artistFranco Urru.
DC Universe--Jay and Silent Bob made a brief appearance in one panel of Green Arrow (vol. 3) #6, standing outside Jason Blood's Safe House inStar City. This issue was written by Kevin Smith during his 15-issue run on the title character. The duo were also interviewed by Newstime Magazine following the Death of Superman.
Memeverse--Just google it. Tons of Jay and Silent Bob mash-ups.
Mirror Universe--Fanboys (cameo) Not actually "Jay and Silent Bob", they are a close facsimile. (The roles were reversed. Smith's character was hanging out in front of the gas station bathroom, pimping out Jason Mewes' character.)
TVCU2--Clerks – a live-action pilot for a TV show, based on the film Clerks. (This production did not involve Kevin Smith).

TVCU-4 (or the Arrowverse, or Earth-1, or the DC TV Universe, or the Comic Book Toobworld)--Jay and Silent Bob recently visited Central City, and I"m told Jay had an Earth-2 doppelganger who was part of Zoom's super-villain army. Note that what they call Earth-2 is actually the Mirror TVCU-4.
TVCU-37--View Askew Universe--Clerks, Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back, Dogma, etc.
TVCU-69--The Rule 34 Universe--Clerks XXX: A Porn Parody (2013) (Video) Adult parody of the film.
