#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.

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 fiancé 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.
“A lighthearted yet often insightful romp into the Simpsons
universe and its cultural impact. Lydia and James’s writing
elegantly paints a picture of Springfield in my head, as though I
were right there at 742 Evergreen Terrace.”
—Josh Strider, YouTuber at PhantomStrider “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 “A perfect book for any
fan of animation!”
—Stephen Carver, YouTuber at Saberspark “As a member of the
Stonecutters, I can assure you that if anything in this book were
true, we wouldn't have let it be printed… A must read for anyone
who wants to know how we do it.”
—Jefferson Weekly, Simpsons prop designer “The Simpsons accurately
predicted that I would love this book! A must read for Simpsons
die-hards.”
—Johnny2Cellos, cohost of the Cartoons that Curse podcast “Full of
analysis and callbacks from all eras of the show, this book is sure
to embiggen the knowledge of even the biggest Simpsons fan and help
them recontextualize how the show is put together.”
—Al-Tariq, YouTuber at ToonrificTariq “Just when you thought you
knew it all, Lydia and James manage to open up a whole new can of
Simpsons theories that’ll blow every fan’s mind!”
—Brendan Dando, cohost of the Four Finger Discount podcast
“Simpsons fans will enjoy this overview of three decades’ worth of
animated dysfunctional family life and its analysis of the show’s
ability to foreshadow future events.“
—Lisa Henry, Library Journal
