12 Interesting Fan Theories About Popular Shows
1.
Homer Simpson has been in a coma since 1993. In a 1992 episode Homer asks God what the meaning of life is. God tells him that he will have to wait until he is dead, which will be in 6 months. 6 months later a vending machine falls on Homer putting him into a coma. At the end of the episode when Homer comes out of the coma, he is actually dreaming. This explains why his kids never age. The plot points in the show after this incident are also much crazier. For example, Homer goes to outer space, works for a super villain and meets celebrity after celebrity. It has been well documented that people in comas can sometimes hear what people are saying around them. There could be a TV near his room that is close enough for him to hear which is how he knows about modern celebrities.
4.
Harry Potter is actually a mentally ill child and Hogwarts is a mental institution. The entire series is a metaphor about dealing with mental illness. All of the magical things that happen are Harry’s attempt to cope with the harsh reality that he lives. In the first book when Harry finds the mirror that allows him to imagine his perfect parents, Dumbledore warns him that the mirror has driven people insane, because spending your life in a fantasy world can cause you to lose touch with reality. The rest of the books are exactly this.
6.
Pokemon Red and Blue version take place after a war. Think about it. You have no father and your rival is an orphan. Children are free to travel around as they please and your mother accepts you as the man of the house. Most adult men are elderly or have a job related to the military or organized crime. In Vermillion City, Lt. Surge says, “I tell you kid, electric Pokemon saved me during the war!”. Yours is the first generation to live during peace.
7.
Spongebob Squarepants is a tampon. His friends are Sandy Cheeks and a starfish. He lives in Bikini Bottom and works at the Krusty Krab. Gross but true.
8.
Titanic is a dream within a dream. At the end of Titanic, Leo floats into the ocean. In the beginning of Inception he washed up on a beach.
9.
In the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Will is dead. He was murdered on the playground in West Philadelphia. The cab driver was God and Bel-Air is heaven. His Aunt and Uncle are angels who help him work through his issues from living a hard life. When his parents appear in the show they are actually visiting his grave. It makes sense because a real cab driver would never drive somebody 2,700 miles across the country.
10.
Andy’s mom in Toy Story is Emily, the girl who gave away Jessie. In this theory, Andy’s red hat is actually Emily’s hat. She kept it and gave it to Andy. Through an odd twist of fate, Andy also ended up with Jessie. Disney loves that type of stuff.
