'The Simpsons' continues its eerie streak of predicting future events, as the Disney-Fox deal that was predicted on the show nearly 20 years ago comes true.
The 1998 Simpsons episode entitled, ‘When You Wish Upon A Star” featured a 20th Century Fox logo with “A division of Walt Disney Co” written directly underneath it.
It’s almost impossible to believe, but in case you need further convincing, here’s a tweet with an image from the episode that’s nearly 20-years old:
Of course, the deal makes The Simpsons a part of the Disney family now that the company owns Fox’s film and television properties. This includes other hit Fox animated series such as Family Guy, American Dad! and Bob’s Burgers.
In addition to correctly predicting this monumental deal between Disney and Twenty-First Century Fox, The Simpsons also previously guessed the Donald Trump presidency and the Super Bowl matchup between the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks.
Are you as surprised as we are that The Simpsons was so dead on with this prediction? What other crazy predictions do you think the long-running show will get right? Let us know in the comments section!
