I had a similar experience. My girlfriend watches a lot of Netflix. She was listening to Gotham when she asked me to look up the name of one of the actors on IMDB.

I fired up Chrome on my already opened MBP, typed IMDB in the search bar and the first result was IMDB Gotham.

I'm not going to speculate, but the coincidence was indeed surprising.

Correlation is not causation.

This is the kind of stuff that convinces people of having a religious moment that "only" can be explained by their religious beliefs.

Indeed, that's why I mentioned I was not going to speculate. It was just surprising, as I never watch TV, or Netflix.
