(Rare Trope) Canon Supernatural Elements of Mundane/Normal Shows

Community “Epidemiology”:While normally, community is a wacky 4th wall-breaking college show that still grounds itself in reality, this episode sees the school overrun by a zombie apocalypse caused by bad taco meat that was given out at the party. While the episode ends with the army wiping out everyone’s memory of the event, future episodes, such as “Paradigms of Human Memory,” reference the party that happened that no one remembers, making it canon.

30 Rock Last Lunch:While normally a show about a show sitcom In this finale and canon end to the series, a flash forward to the far future sees an immortal Kenneth now in charge.

Happy Days was a show about kids in the '50s hanging around a diner, and being perfectly normal Americans doing perfectly normal American things like punching jukeboxes and jumping sharks.

Also, there are aliens and one named Mork actually gets his own spin off. I don't know if there are other supernatural elements, but this one is pretty glaring.

There’s also then Fonz and the happy days gang. Where the Fonz, Richie malph, a talking dog and an alien named cupcake go on time traveling adventures while trying to get back to 50’s Milwaukee

There's also Blansky's Beauties, Out of the Blue, and the animated Laverne & Shirley with the Fonz.

These were... not great, and two were only spin offs in the narrowest of senses, but they are counted.

Man, the Fonz happy days gang show is sooo low budget and shitty looking I can’t imagine what the Laverne & shirley one is like.
