Strange Occurings around TV...

[billionbucks25]

I'm finding that after I watch a TV show, something comes before or after it involving something related to what was on if that makes any sense...

For example..I was watching Glee and saw the musical number on Lean on Me. Before that however, a commercial with the same song was on.

As well, I was watching Ugly Betty (yes i like these shows) and it involved a freaky plot around spirituality. Then, a few moments after, two people came knocking on our door asking us about spirtuality and some weird questions.

Has this kinda stuff happened to others?

This is probably more of a mental thing, like if you watch a show that involved dinosaurs, you'd catch yourself reading about or looking up dinosaurs later, because the thought was just in the back of your mind, something along those lines.

Oh my godddd this ALWAYS happens to me. @_@

Like I heard a pun with the expression "tit-for-tat" which i'd never heard before, and then I heard it in school the next day. And the same with "Every tom, dick and harry."

It's really weird, but entertaining in a way. Glad to know I'm not alone. ;D

It happens to me a lot. It is just that you pay more attention to it, you start to recognize it when it comes up. IF you didn't watch it, you just wouldn't pay any mind to the strange occurrences.

I cannot tell if you are talking about Jehovah's Witnesses or rogue FBI agents a la Scully and Mulder. The latter would be a pretty strange occurrence, I'll agree.

As for the rest of it, I'll have to second what Tacogeddon said. I won't deny that it's pretty cool to see something you learned/thought of earlier applied in a different situation, though.

This happens to me all the time. I've learnt to control it. xD What you do is pick a number, any number at all, and then see how many times it comes up while your watching television. My number is 27, from an episode of The Simpsons, and I hear it in every single show I watch. No joke. xP

It's coincidence, although coincidence can be a very intriguing matter ^-^

What Meneur D'enfer said. I've done research about it, and then my computer crashed. But it does happen all the time, it bugs me though.

Hmm sounds kind of like paramnesia unfortunately cant find good definition of it to share here
There is different forms of paramnesia however like Reduplicative which has to deal with the belief that places have been duplicated or relocated hmm Ill have to do more research when I find something Ill be happy to share.
