Do we want to "transfer" the examples from the other wiki? They seem to be accurate, though of course tv tropes informal style will be required. The more examples we have in the ykttw phase, the better, I think.

I am kind of confused with BrandX, BlandNameProduct and FictionalCounterpart and similar tropes, be it sub- or supertropes. For example, the Morley cigarettes are mentioned at all three pages, I think, and maybe more.

[[http://www.poobala.com/bfc.html This page]], dealing with {{CrossOver}}s, has some interesting stuff to say as to which examples might be {{Shout Out}}s. I just skimmed through it but it looks promising for collecting examples. Link: http://www.poobala.com/bfc.html

Anyway, my obligatory XFiles example:

* ''Series/TheXFiles'', "Synchrony": Agents Mulder and Scully search the hotel room of the mysterious old guy who seems to have come [[TimeTravel from the future]]. Scully finds a note pad in his room. There are the words "Pan Oceanic flight #1701" written on it.
