Congratulations Lisa Simpson!

[Amaris]

In the Simpsons episode Lisa's wedding from 1995 (which takes place in the future and, as the title reveals, tells the story of when Lisa is about to get married), it is shown on the wedding invitations that the ceremony is held on August 1, 2010. In other words, today!

Congratulations Lisa!

What are the chances that August 1st would really turn out to be a sunday?
And where's my hovercar?!

Back in the glory days of this show they actually did their research.

 

[Diggs]

Congrats, Lisa!

Oh, how I miss the older episodes...I should probably put aside some cash to buy a boxset.

 

[shayan b]

I wonder how come I wasn't invited

 

[anggira dhita]

I don't know why this is a happy day for her, things didn't work out for Lisa

 

[redfyr79]

Yeah, that's true. But it IS a happy day for Simpsons fans, since today is the day when one of the best episodes in the series happens!

Congrates, Lisa:anime:

It's kind of horrifying that a show featuring an episode with a flash-forward episode set fifteen years later has actually survived to see said date.

Also, none of the events in the episode came to pass. Not even the "40 classic Jim Carrey films" festival, as Jim Carrey has only starred in 30-some films to date.

Well, OK, the "picture phone" happened. But that's it.

It was one of the many great episodes!

Lisa Simpson is currently a trending topic on Twitter.

Always cool to see Simpsons fans keep the classics alive.

 

[sillylady]

I would have called to warn her, but with Maggie talking on the phone constantly all I got was the busy signal.

 

[R.A.M]

Easily the biggest tragedy to come of all this.

A Jim Carrey film festival is easily more entertaining than modern Simpsons.

 

[Super Troll]

it really is amazing that the simpsons managed to make it to this date, even if the the show isnt nearly as good as it used to be. quite an achievement.

 

[lindzsea]

Aw, where's my virtual pool and hover car?

Cool stuff, though.

 

[crazyninjadudeguy]

Okay, I was wondering why Lisa Simpson was trending on Twitter and was also shown as a trending topic on Yahoo, I thought maybe they were killing her character off or something, but now I know why.

Congratulations Lisa Simpson, I always knew you would make such an ugly bride!

Amusingly, when "Lisa's Wedding" was released, Jim Carrey was primarily known as a wacky comedy star mostly known for talking with his butt. If only the writers had any idea that Jim would branch out into more dramatic roles ("The Majestic", "The Truman Show", "Eternal Sunshine") years later. Kinda funny, in retrospect.
