Since it premiered in 1989, The Simpsons<\/em><\/a> has often reflected whatever is going on in the real world, from cultural trends to major sociopolitical movements. Thus, when watching older episodes of the show, it can be easy to mistake certain jokes or plot elements for satire of current events. But as any Simpsons<\/em> fan will tell you, it’s just as likely that the show was inadvertently predicting the future.<\/p>\n

The animated sitcom’s most well-known predictions include Donald Trump<\/a>‘s presidency and Roy Horn’s (of Siegfried & Roy) injury by a white Bengal tiger. But did you know The Simpsons<\/em> also nailed a future Game of Thrones<\/em> plot point and the scourge of autocorrect in our lives? At a certain point, we just have to assume the show has psychics on staff.<\/p>\n

Ahead, we’re looking at 25 instances of The Simpsons <\/em>predicting the future, from minor coincidences to eerily accurate prophecies.<\/p>\n
