The Simpsons currently ranks No. 2 for most episodes of a prime-time series, but it comes in first when it comes to amazing predictions.

Back in 2000, the show predicted Donald Trumps presidency. A 2012 episode foretold Lady Gagas 2017 Super Bowl performance .

The Fox sitcom is also credited with predicting smartwatches , the Greek debt crisis and even a future Nobel Prize winner.

Showrunner Al Jean said during a Saturday Comic-Con panel that the show also had a premonition about a female Doctor Who.

We predict some good things as well, Jean told the crowd.

Jean said the episode in question joked about fans protesting the gender switch.

The Doctor Who joke was supposed to be in the upcoming season Season 29 if youre keeping score but will be cut now that its happened in real life.

We decided to do a joke about too many poke shops, Jean said. Its kind of an L.A. thing.
