9. The Simpsons
One of the longest running TV shows of all time, The Simpsons has definitely had a powerful impact on the genre of comedy television. But the show was way too powerful when it predicted an event 19 years in the future. Back in 1994, the cartoon featured a plot that Springfield Elementary’s cafeteria staff had been serving horse meat in secrecy, quickly prompting a scandal. The same thing happened on an industrial scale in the UK in 2013.
