The Simpsons Secret Summary

The Simpsons Secret by Lydia Poulteney

Have You Ever Wondered How The Simpsons Predict the Future?

Did The Simpsons really, truly predict anything? I predict you'll have to purchase this book to get the true story. Bill Oakley, Simpsons writer and producer

#1 New Release in Animated Movies, Comedy Movies, and Comedy Television

Then, The Simpsons Secret is the book for you. Delve into some of the biggest predictions that came true on the show, and just how the Simpsons predict the future.

Simpson predictions from three-eyed fish to presidential elections. The Simpsons has been predicting major events with scary accuracy for over three decades. From Donald Trump's presidency to Disney buying 20th Century Fox (...years before it happened!). People just can't seem to get enough and are eager to know what they are going to predict next. This book goes behind the scenes of this adored cartoon series, and the family we've grown to love. Between Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and the rest of the Simpsons family, the show has stolen our hearts, and also left us amazed at how often the Simpsons predict the future!

So how do they do it? Is it a crystal ball? A fountain of knowledge? Have the writers gained the ability to travel through time? As shocking as it may seem, the answer is actually a little simpler than that. The cartoon crew is not in a secret society that can see the future, nor have they mastered the art of time travel.

In The Simpsons Secret, learn more about:

  • How The Simpsons are able to predict so many major events
  • How the show writers and producers come up with these ideas
  • And so much more about your favorite old-school cartoon family

If you enjoyed books like Springfield Confidential, The Simpsons Family History, Friends Forever, or The Office, you'll love The Simpsons Secret.

About Lydia Poulteney

Lydia Poulteney holds a Bachelor of Arts in Film Theory and Practice from the University of Kent. As a former British Airways Air Hostess, Lydia has traveled the world, exploring new countries as well as well as meeting people of all backgrounds, from the royal family to Elvis impersonators in Las Vegas... but unfortunately no one as eclectic as the Simpsonians of Springfield, as it seems the planes just couldn't decide whether or not to land in Springfield Massachusetts or Springfield Illinois! Along with her fiance James Hicks, they created the YouTube channel The Simpsons Theory in 2020, which concentrates on the mysteries of the show that furthers its geographical location. James Hicks holds a Bachelor of Arts in Media Production from the University of Lincoln. He is an avid film lover, and an insatiable reader. James is the co-creator of The Simpsons Theory YouTube channel and driving force of the channel, ensuring Lydia is awake, content is written and that every moment Moleman has bitten the dust is counted! The Simpsons Theory was built with the aim to create a virtual love-letter to the show that provided a slice of escapism during Lydia and James' childhoods (every night at 6pm) as well as integrating itself into their adult lives.
