Discussion History Series / Supernatural

Was anyone else more than a little bummed when the episode \\\"Monster Movie\\\" made it canon that Supernatural and The X-Files do not take place in the same universe? Maybe it was just me, but I actually thought that episode was a shout-out to the X-Files episode \\\"The Post-Modern Prometheus.\\\" Seriously, watch both episodes and tell me Supernatural did not follow that format to a T. Both were references to classic monster movies/novels (Frankenstein in the X-Files, Dracula in Supernatural, not to mention both episodes were shot in black and white), and both were lighter and softer episodes of otherwise angsty shows. Jim Beaver even appeared in an X-Files episode, and his role as a coroner in that episode totally meshes with the fact that hunters tend to adopt different personas for a case. If I\\\'m not mistaken, Bobby pretended to be a coroner in a later episode of Supernatural, as well. Even though Supernatural has always kind of skirted the issue of aliens I still think they missed out on a bunch of great opportunities by setting Supernatural in a separate universe.
