‘The Simpson’s’ Predicted 19 Years Ago That Disney Would Buy 20th Century Fox

Did an episode of ‘The Simpsons’ from 19 years ago predict the future? It shows the entrance to 20th Century Fox's movie studios with fine print below the logo that reads “A Division Of Walt Disney Company." The episode is coming to light after Disney purchased 21st Century Fox for $52.4 billion Thursday morning. The deal includes Fox's 39 percent stake in satellite broadcaster Sky and the 20th Century Fox film studio, Disney announced. It's not the first time the show has had a crystal ball. #InsideEdition

Why is this news??? They literally predict everything we know this

[pizzazuniga]

The Simpson has been predicting lots of things like 911

It's not Simpsons predicting stuff, it's the people outside going "oh, that's a good idea, let's do that!"

I’m gonna get my lotto numbers from Simpson’s

In a Tree House Of Horror, Homer wears an “Ivanka 2028” pin on his shirt.

They also predicted 9/11, the patriots winning the Superbowl, AND EVEN STRANGER THINGS just look it up it's actually amazing

Forget it man.
All of us must depend on the Simpsons for the news of the future.

[shockingkid]

The only thing they didn't predict was the end of net nutrality :/

[unusuallytrin]

Or maybe they just make the stuff happen after some time....no prediction needed

[brookegasser]

Have they predicted the browns winning the super bowl? 😂🤣

[dfuseidazza]

if you write 600 odd episodes some of them will

When jokes become a part of reality.

How is the part Lady Gaga doing that performance a prediction? Couldn't she have heard the idea from the writers and used it?

Disney watched simpsons and thought "lets buy fox"

[chrislasekan]

This show is dumb scary! Yo, they probably kidnapped some weird man from the future and holding him hostage, and he is telling them secrets!

[justinmelecio]

Since the Simpson's predicted everything in the universe, does that mean they will put a dome over Springfield? Actually, Walt Disney had planned to put a dome over Disney World when he was going through ideas for the park. Disney just brought fox and fox owns the Simpson's! Coincidence? I think not!

[biancacb]

I swear the Simpson be predicting the hole damn future

They didn't predict anything, everything is just planned out. Same with movies. A lot of movies have shown what's happening or has happened years after the movie.

Instead of predicting these events, they probably inspired them.not the tiger thing tho
