This Seinfeld Episode Made A Shockingly Accurate Prediction

Movies and TV shows wild predictions that end up true They have become obsessed with pop culture over the last half of the decade, and a small screen has some examples of a really high profile of our favorite characters mentioning a subject that suddenly becomes a massive agreement in everyone’s life. However, these exhibitions are most often Only by referring to historical events that the authors remember and decide to put the script in the script for their own amusement. In the case of “Seinfeld”, a random basketball point that was mentioned during the episode became fascinating on NBA Twitter for a few nights, and it aroused a strange moment in social media.

In 2019, Cleveland Cavaliers of the National Basketball Association received San Antonio Spurs in a routine competition, but the regular game suddenly became an internet attachment due to the end result. Cavit won 117 San Antonio 109 in a rare bright place to sputter the Cleveland Club, and it usually does nothing else. It was until “Seinfeld” fans that loved basketball found the score. In 1991, the episode of the beloved Sitcom, called “Heart Attack,” Stephen Tobolowsky’s one -time character Tor Eckman is the task of translating a note that Jerry scratched himself, watching science fiction. Of course, because this is “Seinfeld”, Tor is a holistic healer who reads “Cleveland 117 – San Antonio 109” on Jerry’s paper.

So, social media did it, and people outside the Twitter sports bubble got a strange little nugget and we were out of conspiracy competition. It was not difficult for the random topic to get a full gust of wind into the back and sail to a larger internet at the time, and it would certainly not be the last time it happened from the “Seinfeld” series. Heck, a year earlier, the entire sports side of that platform stops because two Pittsburgh pirate players were named Newman and Kramer. According to pop culture, it is necessary to run popular accounts throughout social media, so there had to be a “Seinfeld” fan to pay attention to somewhere.

28 years after the fact is a strange part of this contract and a brilliant example How does social media support these events randomly Because they did not realize that the game would be about the future, and the writers probably just set two random teams there for comedy effect. This fact is not intending to prevent people from speculating and fun with the randomness of its score that appears in nature; It is the entire cottage industry in a larger online sports community, With the Scrigam In the NFL.

Yet some of this size “x show predicted this exact thing” half may be a bit questionable and there is no better example than “Simpsons”, maybe a textbook example of “media forecast” in the current landscape. During the middle months of 2020, when everyone was interested in everyone … let’s say a number of things in the world (dear goodness, what time), a set of Internet posters began to focus on how many seemingly independent events “Simpsons” seemed to predict. In the World Cup or Fox blends with Disney with smaller things like Germany and Brazil, but things change a little more on the Internet when you mention that President Trump was referred to in 11 episodes of the season or throughout the plot of “Osaka flu” (mentioned “Marge in Chains” 4th) 4))

People who are trying to grab strange events have been a long time before we had televisions or even electricity, because it may be the impulse of the country’s man to try to explain what is going on around us. But the income of social media makes all of this more than it can be alone, at a speed that speculators passes and, to be honest, Herkule’s pursuit of facts and correcting false lies as these certain trains leave the station. Harmless little jokes about history that repeats itself or the TV show randomly the exact detail of the right, something worse is very little effort.

It’s great to have fun at times when we love the media are reflected in the real world, in fact, such overlap brings more awareness to programs and movies that many of us know, like our hands. But there is nothing bad or a conspiracy on the television program that gets something right, and we would be good to understand this fact before jumping into social media by talking “This thing was predicted!” One “Simpsons” writers, Bill Oakley, put it well in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter–

“There are very few cases where the Simpsons‘ predicted something. It is mainly just a coincidence because the episodes are so old that history is repeated. Most of these episodes are based on things that took place in the 1960s, in the 70s or 80s we knew. “

History often circulates and repeats strange ways in numerous places, and it is just a strange part of life with this little blue rock, but it is often anything but predictable. Unfortunately, this fact is much less juicy than the idea that there is a secret machine that provides information in advance, such as the gray sports hall jacket “back to the future II”, and it can be difficult to wrap its brain. Fortunately, there is always something new and you never know when your dusk pop culture information will be of benefit. It is likely that you cannot predict when.
