Yes, exactly. I loved the added meaning that Trickster/Gabriel gave the previous shows...and it doesn't necessarily add anything to "Tall Tales", but it does add a hell of a lot to "Mystery Spot."
As you said, there's nothing wrong with "adding to previously established canon" retroactive continuity - which is why it really annoys me when people throw around the word "retcon" likes its a bad thing.
