Did “The Simpsons” Predict “Toys “R” Us” Closing?

You be the judge.

Did The Simpsons’ crystal ball accurately predict another major event in American history? This most recent case involves the nationwide liquidation of Toys “R” Us, and all of it’s stores closing possibly mirroring an episode entitled “Marge vs Singles, Seniors, Childless Couples and Teens, and Gays,” which saw the adults of Springfield turn on “child-like” things and featured a quick scene where Moe turned the “R” around on the “Toys “R” Us” building in a fit of anger and rage.

The premise of the episode involved Marge who decries a movement that favors a school-tax exemption for Springfield’s childless residents. The episode premiered during the 15th season of The Simpsons. Watch a clip from the episode in question below and make the call for yourself!
