How does the Simpsons predict the future?

@TooNuttz Месяц назад

I think to have an answer but this answer bringst me maybe to psychicclinic

@michaellrakes5521 Месяц назад

Marge would come out on top if the family had ever went into a battle Royale. Why? She's very intelligent, surprisingly physically strong, very quick and has an X factor in that she is the primary peace maker in the family, which has been used in the past to trick and disarm others in some situations. She's very unassuming which gives her a great advantage

They have come forward about the attack. The routine was not planned so the tiger was not properly prepared and he stupidly changed it so tiger got spooked and lashed out. They lied for a while about the situation so the animal wouldn't be put down. Still wrong for it to be paraded around like that, deserves to be free.

The Simpsons writers are an overly educated group of people with PHD's and degrees. They know a lot collectively. They stay up to date with the world, try to anticipate the most probable outcome years in advance, They evaluate and brainstorm how the geopolitical landscape will adjust to current world situations, or how tech might evolve or how daily life will become ,in the most likely way possible.

The equation didn't predict the mass of the Higgs boson if it gave a higher value than the experimentally measured mass. What the comments missed completely was the equation on the same blackboard that looked like it disproved Fermat's Last Theorem, which took over a century to prove, that no set of numbers a, b and c exist where a^n = b^n + c^n, when n > 2. The equation on the board isn't actually correct, but it's close enough that when tried with a computer that can't handle all the digits of the numbers, that it looks like it disproves the theorem, which got the people who spotted it and thought it was correct but didn't have the correct software to to the calculation exactly very excited. Turns out a lot of the Simpsons writers have physics and mathematics backgrounds, so they knew exactly what they were doing.

In the twelfth season, in an episode featureing Bart and his school mates joining together in a band like Nsync, during the video clip of their song, while the band members were flying in air force planes, you can see the band was bombing a Middle Eastern region with jeeps with flags. The irony is that the flags are the same as the rebellion flags of the free Syrian army. In other words, the episode, which has been aired in 2001, has pridicted exactly the civil war in the Middle East 9 years before. You can chech it out!!

To be fair, anyone who paid attention to GoT wouldve been able to predict Daenerys' heelturn.

The problem in season 8 wasnt her turning heel in general, but the lazy execution of it.

Of course some you can say were predictions,but in some specific ones like the one like lady gaga do something they showed on a episode someone can say it was made by the star after witnessed the episode! You see simpsons is huge in the entire world,even bigger in USA so they trying to commercialize it to keep it going forever or lets say fresh by disney ownership! Its not a surprise,i do know however close to other shows like family guy or american dad disney had the luxury to change it allot not being so funny as it used to be! Did the simpsons predicted how much this would happen after disney bought them?! At least they saw this one coming having disney buying them,they didn't saw the outcome from this i presume since the show is a sitcom and should be preserved that way!

A lot of these are not as crazy as people think. Some of the cases were possibly inspired by the Simpsons. The Trump election, he had already tried to run for president a couple of times. The previous summer he ran in the Reformed Party primaries. The tiger attacking, that isn't a prediction as much as a "tigers are tigers, this could happen." So many of these just come from being informed and knowledgeable to the world.
