The Simpsons boss hits out at “depressing” fans who ruin “the magic”
As a long-time fan of “The Simpsons“, I can’t help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation when it comes to the predictions debate. On one hand, it’s fascinating how the show has managed to predict so many real-life events with uncanny accuracy – from Trump’s presidency to Lady Gaga’s Super Bowl performance. But on the other hand, I can’t help but roll my eyes at the fans who try to claim credit for predictions that never even happened!
Matt Selman, the mastermind behind “The Simpsons,” has voiced his disapproval towards fans who spoil the enchantment of the series by fabricating premonitions about unpleasant incidents.
For decades, this popular animated show has accurately forecasted significant occurrences ever since it first aired in 1989, such as Donald Trump becoming president, the FIFA scandal involving corruption, Disney acquiring Fox, and Lady Gaga performing during the Super Bowl half-time.
Since 1997, Selman, the person behind “The Simpsons,” has unveiled the mystery behind their prophetic scenes: it’s a mix of historical knowledge and mathematical calculations.
In a recent interview with People, he simply put it this way: “If you delve into history and mathematics, it becomes virtually unavoidable for us not to foresee events.
If you make numerous statements, some of them will align with actual facts, and that’s where the mathematical principle comes into play.
If a series is centered around examining human history’s past mistakes, it’s reasonable to expect that it will also foreshadow more human folly as society continues to make errors. However, we tend not to ponder on this prospect.
On the other hand, Selman pointed out certain occasions when fans posted fake images online, claiming predictions were made that actually hadn’t been, a practice that the writers strongly dislike.
He went on to say, “I found it more straightforward when our predictions solely concerned actual tragic occurrences, rather than us being accused of predicting disasters that didn’t happen.
It’s quite disheartening and disillusioning when individuals are so desperate for the depicted events to be real that they end up inventing narratives that were never presented in the original series.
The Simpsons airs Sunday nights on FOX in the US. The show currently streams on Disney+ in the UK.
