Surprisingly complete, but there are some missing.
"The Sun Also Sets" is the fictional soap opera in the 1991 movie Soapdish.
Ultra-Max is the fictional (and lethal) game show in the third season of Futureman.
Not sure if "Pigs in Space" from The Muppet Show counts.
And I suspect there are a lot more missing from the Simpsons, like "Blood on the Blackboard: The Bart Simpson Story".
that scene in the movie Soapdish where Sally Fields
Umm... dude...
Wouldn't it be great if Russell Kirsch went from coffee shop to coffee shop having similar conversations? Kinda like the hacker version of that scene in the movie Soapdish where Sally Fields and Whoopi Goldberg go to the mall and Whoopi pretends to recognize Sally. In the movie, the result was a flock of women crowding around her. In Russell's version, each encounter would end with an inspirational blog post or tweet.
