It was a great week for the League of Themselves as November ended. The League of Themselves are those people who play themselves in fictional shows in which they meet fictional characters. This means that they aren't actually themselves, but the fictional televersions of themselves. A lot of my fellow crossoverists don't consider them to be legitimate links between shows, but I say if they're fictional, anything goes.
Working backwards...
ELON MUSK
'YOUNG SHELDON'
"A PATCH, A MODEM, AND A ZANTAC"
At some point in the near future, Elon Musk uses 9 year old SheldonLee Cooper's composition notebook from November 9 1989 on the subject of "Rocket Re-entry & Retropropulsion" and used it for a major scientific event covered by CNN.

Here is the other TV show set in Earth Prime-Time:
'The Big Bang Theory'
- "The Platonic Permutation" (2015)
And in the end, it doesn't really matter since this series is the launch pad for 'Young Sheldon'.

Musk also has a presence in the Tooniverse:
'South Park'
- "The End of Serialization as We Know It" (2016)
- "Not Funny" (2016)
- "Members Only" (2016)
Everybody Loves Raymond
- Debra's Sick (1997)
Brotherly Love
- Uptown Girl (1995)
The Sinbad Show
- The Telethon (1994)
Evening Shade
- The NFL on CBS (1992)
- Far from the Madden Crowd (1991)
- "The End of Serialization as We Know It" (2016)
- "Not Funny" (2016)
- "Members Only" (2016)
And if the current spate of Marvel superheroes on screen are officially linked to the Netflix run of heroes beyond the names (like the Hulk seen in the Daily Bugle front page displays), then this Cineverse appearance brings Elon Musk into Comix Toobworld Marvel1.
"Iron Man 2"
The night before, two stars appeared as themselves on 'Modern Family.
TERRY BRADSHAW
MODERN FAMILY
BRUSHES WITH CELEBRITY (2017)
Jay Pritchett had always found a way to get out of serving on jury duty. But when he found out that football great Terry Bradshaw was also going to serve on the same jury, he made sure he stayed. But then he hounded Bradshaw so badly for his friendship that he was kicked off the jury and had a restraining order put on him to keep him away from the commentator.

All three are now eligible for the TVXOHOF. As it stands, Musk and Martin would be Multidimensionals.
