One of the Simpsons writers was a time traveller that got trapped in the past. Got a part time job in Fox and like many of us who always had the urge to inform others of what we know, he discreetly showed the future in his job.

Anything weird happen in Simpsons lately? Any deaths?

I actually 100% buy that. It would be a great way to avoid interrupting the time stream, because the majority of society wouldn't ACTUALLY believe in time travel, even if it was shoved in their faces, haha.

1 . Legal Reeferino in Canada Season 16, Episode 6 Homer and Ned in Midnight Rx in The Simpsons The 2005 episode "Midnight Rx" sees Ned tagging along with Homer and Grampa's smuggling trips to Canada to get medicine for his own kids. Ned meets his Canadian counterpart and quickly learns they're very different when he's offered a "reeferino," since it's legal in that country. Thirteen years later, in 2018, recreational marijuana became legal in Canada. While Ned likely won't be making any trips back with Apu, Homer, and Grampa, it's good to know he was at least at the center of one of the coolest things Simpsons predicted. 2. Tom Hanks Endorses the US 'The Simpsons Movie' (2007) Tom Hanks in The Simpsons Movie with the a father, girl, and boy standing over the Grand Canyon in the backgroundImage via 20th Century Fox In The Simpsons Movie (2007), actor Tom Hanks made a cameo appearance during a commercial scene that the Simpsons were watching. During the commercial, a father took his two children to see the Grand Canyon, but his daughter was unimpressed by the landmark and requested for there to be a new Grand Canyon. Next, Hanks enters the scene stating that the "US government lost its credibility, so it's borrowing some of mine." In 2022, one year after President Joe Biden's presidency, Hanks appeared in the commercial stating the Americans' determination as they endured economic hardships caused by the COVID19 Pandemic. The video focused on America's theme of rebuilding its economy and highlighting the successes of Biden's administration so far.

Please tell me that you've watched the Simpsons DVD with the commentary on? The writers and producers are brilliant. I have the first 7 seasons. They talk about movie references they often use like Citizen Kane, Godfather and Hitchcock films. James Brooks, Al Jean, John Vitti, Mike Reiss, David Silverman, Mark Kirkland and others are something special.

They didn't. Watchmojo just regurgitated a list to add to it, which wasn't even close to what actually happened.

[@multitudeofidols]

It's almost as if WatchMojo is using the recent situation that's still in the headlines for their benefit. I mean, they used it in the thumbnail as clickbait. Feels as flimsy at a prediction as it does exploitative.

[@ludonymous526]

It's mostly coincidences than anything else.

[@FabianArisen]

The creator is a 33° freemason so it nothing but a revelation of the method not a "prediction". It is time you guys become aware of this crucial fact.

[@StArShIpEnTeRpRiSe]

The sad truth is, it's not all so accurate. The thing is, there were "smart watches" in movies long before the Simpsons. Just think about Knight Rider. Videophoning in TV since 50s like Star Trek (60s) The submarine accident in the simpsons is far far from the implosion of the Titan, however it's similar to a submarine accident at Titanic back in 2000. If the episode was aired before 2000 it can be a "predictions" if not, it happened long after a similar accident.

[@rndmpinkiepie64]

To be fair, you didn't need a simpsons prediction to see that tiger was gonna hurt somebody

For number 2, about Trump's Presidency, it's worth to note that Trump tried to run for president, or atleast hinted at the idea for the 2000 election. While it still is wild he did become president in 2016, it is intended to reference those events near 2000.

[@justincooper5189]

I think that because of the amount of time between the "prophecy"and the actual event, it may be that they unexpectedly gave people the desire to do the action the show predicted.

[@Bamazrollin]

Thats what I think too

[@gordo1191]

Yeah, that incredible desire to die in a submarine implosion

[@justincooper5189]

@@gordo1191 not exactly what I was thinking, but more like the desire to go down deep in the ocean, and explore, and it turned into a disaster because of an incompetent buffoon who didn't know that submarines need to be bolted together as well as bonded and welded.

[@NoelMcGinnis]

Well, when a show reaches the 100,000 episode mark, it’s inevitable that some predictions will occur. Besides, video phones were predicted in 2001 A Space Odyssey in 1968, and the original Star Trek predicted the flip phone even earlier than that. The show Star Trek: TNG predicted smart tablets. There are tons more. Still, the Simpsons does have a knack for making weird but accurate predictions.

It is the year 10,501 AD and even to this day, we are still finding Simpsons predictions. One wonders just how much futuristic knowledge the writers must have had in such a primitive time, and how they came to acquire it.

[@jamesfowler5100]

The Simpson's predicted way too many things over the decades to be coincidental.

[@nikitakumari4953]

it had manyyyyyy episodes and 30 things matching can either be sheer coincidence or the makers researched alot about what future looks for humans and tried to add them to their content

What we can all agree is that we should be paying closer attention to the Simpsons then and make sure that they do/don't happen in the near future.

[@ankitraj20032003]

This is said from one of the writers of The Simpsons "when a show is there for so long time and in every episode we are trying to make a satire on social structure, some of the things are bound to come true. Because most of the stuff we are writing are plausible"

I love how they say "In 2023, the Titan Submersible disappeared" as if all of this didn't go down a week ago. I get for future viewers that would be helpful and make sense, but for the sake of this coming out a week after they found the debris, it's quite weird watching it now

[@Kracarod]

i have seen too many people talking about how the simpsons predicted the future, and i have to say, in some cases i can believe that in others it was just a coincidence or the joke was meant for some thing that happened recently or was a complete parody of a movie trope, the only reason people satrted calling the predcitions, was because the simpsons made a joke about an injury ocurring on the fifa world cup, and later the injury did happen, after that it went out of control

It's more of an example of the "Infinite Monkey Theorem"...which basically states that so long as anything has a non-zero probability, no matter how infinitesimally small that probability is, it will inevitably become a certainty with sufficient trials. After 750 episodes over 34 seasons, "The Simpsons" has had to come up with so much material that by sheer probability at least some of them would come true.

[@roland1278]

Dont you think, that there is a huge difference, between some event shown in span of 750 episodes and an actuall infinity? With that level of accuracy, and considering the fact that its not a single prediction but a lot of them, its not really example of that theorem...

[@johntumahab323]

@@roland1278 Not really. The actual "monkeys typing Shakespeare" is an extreme example since the probability of that is infinitesimally small. By comparison, most "predictions" in "The Simpsons" were made based off of satire of real life, which already has a much higher probability. Just look at Babylon Bee. If "The Simpsons" can really "predict the future", then you could argue the Babylon Bee are downright time travelers. Plus, that's only looking at the positive correlation. How many "predictions" have "The Simpsons" made over the years that HAVEN'T come true?
