Nostradamus nervously smokes: 15 unexpected predictions from the "Simpsons"!

If there is a series on the planet that can be called "the most-most", then it deserves the "Simpsons" rightly.

28 years and 30 seasons - so that's why Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, Ralph and Maggie take many for real and almost native people?

And for all this time the creators have not changed for themselves. Sharp and even black humor, ridiculing cliches and stereotypes, jokes over politicians and stars, ironic parodies, discussion of actual problems and phenomena of the era became the basis of the series, for which millions of viewers gathered every evening at TV screens. In a word, such an animated news bulletin or historical chronicle. But…

But what you learn now will no longer make you smile, but make you take all 600 series and review them CAREFULLY again!

It seems that the creators still knew something, because, as they managed to make so many bold and terrible predictions that Nostradamus just nervously smokes on the sidelines ...

1. Donald Trump - President of the United States

Who would doubt that the personality of Donald Trump will not leave the creators of the series indifferent, and they will get enough of his characteristic appearance and narcissism? But how to explain the fact that more than 16 years ago there was a series of "Bart to Future", in which Bart moves to the future and sees Lisa as president, right after Donald Trump?

By the way, then a clever eight-year-old girl noted that President Trump brought the country to the handle ...

Well, who replaced Barack Obama at his post? Something inattentively, we then paid attention to such details. It's time to review the 17th episode of season 11.

2. The economic crisis in Greece

Do you remember the episode of five years ago when Homer Simpson appears in the news release? Then on the screen a running line from the bottom was the information that Europe put Greece on sale at the eBay auction?

Less than three years have passed since everything happened! Alas, Greece actually experienced an economic crisis, to save from which it was the money of the whole EU!

3. The Simpsons predicted at once two Nobel Prize winners

Six years ago, in the first episode of the 22nd season of the animated series, the heroes are watching TV broadcast of the Nobel Prize and anxiously watching TV.

Their choice is the award to Bernard Fering in the field of chemistry and Bengt Holmstrom in the field of economics ...

After 6 years, these laureates received "on merit"!

4. Attack of the White Tiger on Roy Horn

In 1993, the creators of the "Simpsons" wanted to make an episode in which a huge white tiger attacks its trainers.

Do you think they "croaked"?

And how else to explain that after exactly 10 years Siegfried and Roy were attacked by their wards?

5. Germany's victory over Brazil in the 2014 World Cup

But football fans in general could not even watch the World Cup in 2014, as only a few months earlier the "Simpsons" series about Germany's victory over Brazil and corruption in FIFA came out ...

Yes, they have clairvoyants working in the writers' staff!

6. Lady Gaga on the Superbowl.

Jokes, banter and parody of the stars of show business - the hobby of the creators of the animated series. Here's how, for example, the shocking lady Gaga, suspended from the dome ...

But who knew that in 2017 on the Superbowl everything will happen?

7. The Simpsons and The Rolling Stones

The Simpsons and The Rolling Stones had their own story. No, it looks like it was real fan love and respect. Well, do you remember how animated Mick Jagger and Keith Richards gave Homer a jacket with the inscription "Guitar Hero" ("Guitar Hero")?

And it's no wonder that in a few years there was a game with this name and quickly gained worldwide popularity!

And how do you like this episode in 1995, when Lisa and her husband are in bed in the background of the poster of their favorite band, which promises to tour in 2010?

Do you really think that the Rollings are still together for 22 years, do not disintegrate and touring, as if nothing had happened just because of this?

8. Injury of Neimar at the 2014 World Cup

Brazilian footballer Neimar is known for his quick temper. In the news bulletin you will always read that he broke the rules, fell to the ground during the match, quarreled with the coach, left the training or hit the ball against the wall. And, of course, the creators of the "Simpsons" could not pass by such a character. Or rather - they invented their own named El Divo, but very much someone reminding ... So, in one of the series this player could not play because of the injury.

Just 4 months later, the real Neymar got the same injury in the game with Colombia. And he even ended up in a similar T-shirt!

9. The US National Security Agency is listening to telephones

Do you think this special service is watching you? And here they are - the Simpsons are watching the special services! They have shown how NSA listens to citizens' phones, and ...

And six years later, Edward Snowden announced it!

10. President Trump's visit to Saudi Arabia

Hold on, sometimes the "hits" of the Simpsons become terribly prophetic and accurate ... Well, this is how President Trump's attempt to conclude an alliance with the President of Egypt and the King of Saudi Arabia.

Or maybe they just laugh at us, otherwise, what do you say when you look at this photo 14 years after the episode?

11. Problems with T9

Do you think it's only you, using the autocorrector, send SMS with complete nonsense? The Simpsons knew that this thing created more problems than it solved back in 1994, when Dolph Starbim typed the text on a device very reminiscent of an apple gadget ...

12. The Ebola epidemic

Well, here's another eerie prophecy - Marge reads Bart's story from a book on the cover of which says "Curious George and the Ebola virus."

The series was released in 1997, and the epidemic of a nightmare virus swept the world seven years later ...

13. Video calls

How funny and dreamy at the same time was to watch Lisa's calls to her mother from the future via video.

And now, in 15 years, we do not understand how this could not be?

14. The September 11 terrorist act and the "play of letters and numbers"

The authors of the script often sent their wards to travel the world. But the most important was the first trip of The Simpsons to New York in 1997, when they liked advertising tickets in the magazine for $ 9. Here and creative imagination is not necessary, so that the figure 9 near the badge $ and twin towers, "read" as "September 9 (September) 11!"

Unfortunately, we already know what happened in 4 years ...

15. Smart-clock

Do you consider yourself with a smart clock on your hand - the most stylish, advanced and up-to-date with the times?

Yes, it looks like you are simply hopelessly behind the times, because the characters of the series were wearing the same 15 years ago!

Well, now you are also "terribly interested", what other futuristic ideas and predictions of the "Simpsons" from the past will be embodied in our present?
