The Statue of David being flagged for such nudity.
The 9/11 tragedy. Homer is heading to NYC and the magazine says $9 right beside of the depiction of the twin towers.
Oceangate wasn't supprising.
To be fair, you can’t really say The Simpsons predicted the smart, watch and video phone I mean they’ve had that shit on Star Trek, the Jetsons and other media before the Simpsons I think we all knew it was an inevitability
This list will just keep getting updated as long as the Simpson continues to run 😂👌
Facts 😂
I agree
Truth 😂
They should just start calling it “10 More” or start adding parts
I think the simpsons is over
Whenever I see something that the Simpsons predicted comes true, it makes me wonder if the creators of the Simpsons are time travelers.
World News is scripted.
Maybe bri
They're just in contact with the higher ups cough cough epstein
no they just help orchestrate the narrative behind the scenes !
Makers of the show like little kids a lot of them tend to so spread the word
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?
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)

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.
A broken clock is right twice a day.
The Tom Hanks one goes even earlier, as in 2012, he narrated an Obama campaign video.

6 was about Disney buy fox and not Ron pitching a movie
Thank you so much!
I’ll never stop loving this show!
I was actually watching a compilation of Simpsons couch gags when I got this notification.
Big brother watching ?
I liked that in the Barack McCain voting scene, Homer makes mention that only a voting machine that sucks people in only exists in Ohio. 😂
SOMEONE SAID IT!
And he said not in the U.S. He doesn't know Ohio is in the U.S. lol
The Simpsons is an amazing show with actual genius writers. Of course they can predict the future.
Or they're just good at analysing stuff
@me...a_nobody no, it's actually true that there are math geniuses that write for the show, but yes, they are excellent analyzers as well.
Or maybe they're from the Future.....
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.
@peternesbitt years ago I purchased some of the seasons while stationed in Korea. I'll have to check if those bootlegged copies have commentary.
This video should’ve added “part 136” because it’s always going to updated in the future. Great video WatchMojo!
To be fair, you didn't need a simpsons prediction to see that tiger was gonna hurt somebody
Animaniacs and Celebrity Deathmatch predicted it too. They even said it was a matter of when, not if it would happen.
Hey I'm from India ❤
How the heck did The Simpsons predict the Submarine getting lost while visiting the Titantic?!
Easy idiots with money can do what ever they want and their mess is a glorious disaster
I mean it wasn't really perfectly predicted, it could just come under any submarine being lost.
They didn't, the situations are completely different, the only thing similar is the submersible and even that was different, the Simpsons one is well built.
They didn't. Watchmojo just regurgitated a list to add to it, which wasn't even close to what actually happened.
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.
The writers must be time travellers!
Well They missed on the submarine one, what happened in the Simpsons wasn’t anything like what happened in real life
@@triton423 ok
The Simpsons been around since the 80s so every now and then their episodes will reflect a real life situation.
It's mostly coincidences than anything else.
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.
3:14 He also kinda predicts "Only in Ohio" in the same segment
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.
Exactly
Haters
There are only 750 episodes though...
Hii
I am from India ❤
Let this be known, , The Simpsons knows more about the world than we do.
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.
Thats what I think too
Remote viewing
Yeah, that incredible desire to die in a submarine implosion
@@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.
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.
Amazing video Rebecca from watch mojo of the Simpsons predictions future events that come true,fantastic job.
The Simpson's predicted way too many things over the decades to be coincidental.
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
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.
I am Obsessed with the Simpsons Predictions.
I am amazed how accurate the prediction scenes were even though the writers were just making fun of each
They aren't predictions, they know it's going to happen.
The fact that homer said "this doesnt happen in america well maybe in ohio" is just wild
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.
Always brighten my days greetings from Ecuador
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.
i was literally waiting for this video
I hope it was worth it
Wow, are those events coincidences or planned? I'm stunned by the Titan implosion part. 😮
The title of this video is very familiar. I think it's been done before. Keep them coming!
The producer of that episode went on the sub on an earlier trip which makes that even crazier.
At this point, I'm convinced Simpsons is a certified classic written by Nostradamus
this is so awesome i loved the simpsons as a child
I didn't realize about the Submarine Dissapearence was apart of it!
Love your video WatchMojo
Simpsons: "WE CAN SEE THE FUTURE!"
I wish The Simpsons could have predicted me getting a winning lottery ticket 😂
“This stuff doesn’t happen in America! Maybe in Ohio but not America!” Even we’re saying Ohio jokes in the crowd lmao
Simpsons have done it again... Remember the Baby Translator ?! (Season 3 Episode 24). Now there's an app that translate the babies' cries using AI (Baby Cry Insights it's called).
What's next, a dog translator ? Was there one in the Simpsons? if not it won't happen ha!🤣
This is pretty cool!
What a time to be alive!!
Dogs are smart enough to get their needs met.. cats though..? Are you hungry, do you want to go outside, do you want to be pet, do you want to be crowned king of the universe? Nobody knows, it all sounds the same
Yes a cat translator please
Hard to believe. Baby Cry Insight? That's nice!
This is stuff sci-fi movies are made of.
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"
5:14 nobodys talking about the similarities between them
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
This is why this show isn't gonna go away they always predict the future.
No they don’t
@@mega_bird700 lol Wanna bet then they might make a top 20. Soon or another top 10
@@julianhall1866 of course they will, conspiracy theories bring in views.
My family was eating at a Mexican place in port Hueneme called Los Arcos when the Oceangate thing came up on the TV in the restaurant.
3:53 he also predicted the Ohio joke
The chock board one saying being right sucks broke me10:20
Maybe I think MATT GROENING is a Fortune Teller 🤔💭🔮🕰️➡️
20 years later watch mojo will still keep on pumping videos about how the Simpson’s keep on predicting the future
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
It also doesn't really work as well since the actual disaster was a catastrophic hull failure not a slow loss of oxygen.
Homer's idea of a donut shaped universe also has scientific merit
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.
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...
@@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?
Considering what you say is true what abt the Higgs Boson Particle.. Its not like they came up with some random equation and it coincidentally matched
08:11 oh look “Gordon Ramsay” would call that an idiot sandwich 😂 😂
6:21 S and G-E 19. Behind that guy in the chair
Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! 10:10 The Simpsons aired the same sign dropping escalator scene long before that event occurred.. There is a video on UA-cam that shows the exact scene. 🥶
Is it a coincidence that this series managed to predict the future? Which one of these is the best?
Coincidence? I think not! Tbh I think it has something to do with Nostradamus
That can easily happen when freemasons involved with the Simpsons TV show.....
Bot
I love this show! Love your lists on it guys!
Hearth❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Learn how to spell
Coincidence v prediction. No contest, coincidence wins. Now do Nostradamus predictions about the Simpsons coming true. Nonetheless, a fun video. Cheers....
I honestly had more Sympathy for the tiger than I did for The Magicians
2:58 BRO HAS HARD AS CONCRETE💀💀💀
'The Simpsons': 31 Times the Fox Comedy Successfully Predicted the Future. From Super Bowl winners to Trump's presidency, the long-running animated series has an uncanny knack for foretelling events.
“Simpsons did it” episode of South Park was talking about real life.
It's easy to predict things when you churn enough of them for some to stick.
Manticore only attacked him because Roy had suffered a stroke on stage and the tiger responded by picking him up to move him out of the way. While it was brutal, it was also an act of love.
I have no idea how the waiters for The Simpsons can predict the future with their ideas for each episode
3:54
Is no one gonna talk about the fact he predicted the Ohio meme?
Communication watches, were introduced, before the Simpsons.
Does anyone remember "Worst Episode Ever?" The episode where Comic Book Guy had a heart attack, and Bart and Milhouse cover for him at the Android's Dungeon? There's a scene where the two boys rummage through his "hidden stash", and find a copy of the "good version" of The Godfather Part III. In 2020, Paramount Pictures released The Godfather Coda, which was reedited to be better than the original.
You guys: the Simpsons predicted the idea of a submarine running out of oxygen? Wooow.
Rugrats Gone Wild: AM I A F***ING JOKE TO YOU??
Every year I look for The Simpsons predictions for the year just in case
It’s not until you say “We see Lisa as an adult in 2010..” that you realise…
I was an adult in 2010… Ahh feck, I’m still and adult !!!
Wow love this
Space prediction surprised me
Real life makes even less sense than The Simpsons at this point
Okay, this year's treehouse of horror should be about all of the Simpsons predictions
This may be a bit too soon to be adding the titan sub incident.
WAY too soon. And it wasn't because of a lack of oxygen, it imploded way before they would have lost oxygen.
I was just literally watching the sinking submarine level walkthroughs for Tomb Raider Chronicles.
Like South Park said "Simpsons did it!"
When they said “ being right sucks” it makes me feel they know more about the future they don’t wanna tell us 😢
The most reliable news source for us time travel agents
Now do a video of South Park predicting the future.
Lets just say im sitting in the right chair!!!😂😂😂
This is the best comfort show of all time.
I KNEW when my parents told me “Don’t believe everything you see on TV!” Something was off…
i remember seeing the simpsons once about piracy and Fox claiming they dont allow piracy yet here we are with over multi billion $$$ worth of illegallu pirated content, the simpsons have made so many predictions
It's like The Simpsons was a fortune teller!
The Simpsons was created by aliens and have the ability to see into the future
I'm not convinced with the Titan. But at least the other prediction is entertaining
I’m convinced Matt Groening is a time traveler.
Covid. Homer "Hold my beer."
The future is already written, life is like a movie 😂
Somebody on The Simpsons dev team knows the future and sprinkles these tidbits in to ease the masses into them.
I really believe one of the writers/ producers have some type of inside knowledge because this is WAY to much of a coincidence
That's one reason why
Cirque du Soleil doesn't
use animals in their show.
Had to get the titan squeezed in there huh..
That’s insane how they knew this stuff would happen! Almost scary
They didn’t, they just write a ton of jokes and then sometimes life happens that way
(Someone in real life eats a donut)
“ZOMG SIMPSONS PREDICTED THE FUTURE!!!”
I liked the time Simpsons predicted the thing that was already widely known at the time, oh and who could forget the time where they predicted an an outcome for an event that was likely to occur at some point in time! WOW
so bad ass man, all them
