The Simpsons

That’s good!

Okay so maybe ‘The Simpsons’ can predict the future...

The depiction of the long-running character has become a source of controversy in recent years.

In addition to everything else on Disney’s new streaming service, it will also have all 30 seasons of ‘The Simpsons.’

Jackson voiced a character on an episode of the show way back in its third season.

The director of a documentary about Apu says he has been told the character will quietly vanish from Springfield.

The Simpsons re-ignited controversy around the show’s portrayal of Apu, and The Problem isn’t going away. TruTV will re-air comedian Hari Kondabolu’s The Problem With Apu on Sunday, and even pit it against its inspiration.

Thousands of years from now, alien archaeologists will come to one inescapable conclusion: The Simpsons dictated humanity’s every advance. The latest evidence is none other than today’s giant Disney-Fox merger, which America’s favorite family jokingly predicted in 1998.

Simpsons character Apu Nahasapeemapetilon has long-influenced stereotypes about people from India, so much so that comedian Hari Kondabolu made a full documentary about The Problem With Apu. Now, character voice Hank Azaria admits the controversy is “a lot to think about,” as well that…

Time and time again, fans dismissed the possibility of a Trump presidency as a throwaway Simpsons gag, even during the real-life campaign. Now, The Simpsons itself has a chance to acknowledge one of its strangest prophecies, one it’s none-too-thrilled to have been right on.
