This Tableu-Created Graph Sure Does Help In Figuring Out Predictions From “The Simpsons”

 

 

 

Let me start off my saying a belated Happy Birthday to Homer Simpson who is 64-years old this week. For half of those years, Homer and the rest of the Simpson family have regaled us with numerous instances of predicting the future that have touched every facet of pop culture, politics, and most recently, maybe pandemics.

But, what’s the science behind The Simpsons predicting the future? Well, author Seffana Mohamed – Ajaz utilized Tableu to help explain at which point the longest-running animated sitcom in primetime would embark on a prediction that would then come true, and the results are very impressive. Says the author about the results,

“I’ve always been interested in how The Simpsons tend to subtly predict the future in their episodes. The predictions have been collected by reading various articles, and watching various YouTube videos that delve into the subject.”

Well, as long as the show keeps going, perhaps, more predictions will be had!

The Simpsons celebrates it’s season finale this Sunday Night on FOX @ 8 pm ET/PT, check your local listings.
