In other news, Houston locality, Joseph Graciano streamed “The Simpsons” on Disney+ Hotstar for a whopping 72 hours in order to prepare himself for the next big move 2020 makes against mankind. The controversial American sitcom has predicted a lot more than Astrologers themselves; some say.
Starting from Trump becoming President to the pandemic outbreak, from the discovery of mutated vegetables in a Japanese town near a nuclear plant to rigged voting systems and attack of Roy by a tiger, The Simpsons have had us on the edge of our seats for 25 years since the show first aired in 1989.
Red eyes Graciano has given his roommate Mike Benavides reason to worry about his erratic binge-watching behavior.
The novel TV addict stated in his interview,
“Sure, in the episode ‘Marge in Chains’ it was Japanese and called ‘Osaka Flu,’ and that was more about America’s fear of being outpaced economically by Japan 30 years ago; but other than all that, it’s exactly the same as COVID-19.”
“We’re through the looking glass here, people,” Graciano added before pausing the TV to read and scribble down the name on each puppies’ bowl in the episode “Two Dozen and One Greyhounds.”
The show-runner of The Simpsons, Al Jean dismissed the fortune teller theories that have sprung up about the show and its creators ever since the first prediction. She stated, in her FaceTime interview that they’ve been given credit for predicting this pandemic and also added,
“Had we really had the power to accurately predict something like Siegfried and Roy being attacked by one of their tigers, we’d play the lottery rather than drop cryptic hints decades ahead of time about, say, that solar-powered monorail crash that’ll kill all those school children in 2021.”
And before her abruptly ending her call, she dropped a final bomb. These predictions also bring to mind the premonitions portrayed by the movie series Final Destination. This also brings light to the question we’ve been asking for years, “Is the future predictable or if foresight is an actual thing?”
