to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
bizarre television fan theories
I bet he’s wishing he was strangling
something okay that’s our street that’s
our street he’s going down our street
before we begin we publish new videos
every day so be sure to subscribe for
more great content for this list we’re
looking at those theories about our
favorite shows that fans have been
debating do you really know the governor
personally friend of a friend we’ll
stick to in world theories so if you
think Firefly was canceled by the
government or that the Simpsons
predicted 9/11 you’re looking at a list
for another day number 10
Time Warp The Simpsons we all know the
numerous and creepy ways The Simpsons
has predicted real-life events as you
know we’ve inherited quite a budget
crunch from President Trump
however longtime fans of the decade
spanning series have also noticed a
bizarre inconsistency well it makes
sense to keep the show contained in a
certain time frame not allowing the
characters to grow old how come the show
is always aware of the technologies
trends and culture of the time it airs
the theory backed by numerous reddit
users is that Springfield is caught in a
time warp with its residents aware of
the passing of time but forever
ageless themselves that was just one
little insignificant mosquito I can’t
change the future right number 9 beating
on children Sesame Street
similar to The Simpsons Theory very
perceptive viewers seem to have noticed
that the child residents of Sesame
Street
while not ageless seem to be
disappearing and constantly replaced
with new kids this may be explained away
by simple cast changes in the studio but
in the world of Sesame Street the only
morbid explanation is that these kids
are slowly being fed to the count it is
difficult to count these blocks in a
pile are we to believe that all these
kids who have come and gone live on the
same little patch of City Street has
nobody notified the police about how
they all go suddenly missing eventually
I’m on my day hmm
first I must find someone to watch my
counting booth number 8
who is the Scranton strangler the office
some may call the Scranton strangler a
throw away gag that ended up as a
recurring joke a mysterious and
murderous strangler in the quiet town of
Scranton has no place in a situational
comedy unless of course he’s one of our
main characters many have speculated as
to the true identity of the strangler
but most popular theories point to shy
quiet Toby from HR he’s rubbing his neck
not only is he not around during crucial
moments such as the Stranglers police
car chase he also ends up claiming to
have put an innocent man away after
being on the strangler jury a man’s
being put to death I was part of the
number seven prequel to The Walking Dead
Breaking Bad
not only do fans love making connections
between popular fan favorite shows show
runners also love dropping Easter eggs
in different properties this could be a
recipe for disaster in online forums
pull the gun not only is Daryl’s
description of murrells drug dealer
spot-on for Jesse from Breaking Bad but
early on in The Walking Dead we get a
look at what seems like Walter White’s
famous blue meth that while these might
just be nods to their AMC sister show
fans have concluded that the blue meth
caused the zombie outbreak and that
Breaking Bad is therefore a prequel to
The Walking Dead number 6 atomic testing
Spongebob Squarepants
we know that bizarre cartoons like
Spongebob Squarepants do not work in the
rational universe the moment we start
questioning how half the things these
guys do or possible underwater we start
losing our minds this does not stop fans
from needing answers as to how a sea
sponge a starfish and other deep-sea
creatures can walk and talk could it be
that they’re all the mutant results of
some freaking nuclear testing is Bikini
Bottom actually located under the
real-life famous nuclear test site
bikini at all well it’s always fun to
theorize number five Jessica Fletcher
serial killer Murder She Wrote Jessica
Fletcher was the modern-day answer to
Agatha Christie a polite middle-aged
lady and successful mystery writer who
was always amazing at solving real-life
murders Jessica Fletcher always found
herself in the wrong place at the wrong
time hope I didn’t catch you in the
middle I stopped it however after 12
seasons and over 200 episodes some
viewers began to theorize half the
police never wondered how so many people
have ended up dead around her was mrs.
Fletcher’s idea that’s a lot of murder
to be casually connected to we guess
it’s not out of a question to claim that
she needed material for her novels
well mr. Magnum since you can’t I will
number for The Fresh Prince is dead The
Fresh Prince of bel-air this bizarre
theory seems to have only one piece of
evidence the theme song became the
prince of a town called bel-air The
Fresh Prince of bel-air was an immense
hit in the 90s and even kids these days
can easily seeing you Will Smith’s
catchy theme song The Fresh Prince wrap
was flipped turned upside down and
dissected by fans because it seems many
refuse to believe that a poor kid from
Philly could be sent to his rich
relatives in bel-air the explanation the
the cabbie then brought will to his
paradise a world he never dreamed of a
mansion in Bel Air I still can’t
understand sweetheart the Lord giveth
and the Lord taketh away
number 3 Zach’s fantasy Saved by the
Bell
only diehard fans will know that Saved
by the Bell was somewhat of a spin off
to the much lesser known good morning
miss bliss
however this other show explains our
next Theory fan favorites like mr.
Belding and screech all returned and
Saved by the Bell but the biggest
difference was the character of Zack
Morris who went from a middle school
dork to the coolest dude at Bayside High
[Applause]
Zach what are you doing the only
possible explanation it seems is that
the entirety of Saved by the Bell was
younger Zach’s fantasy version of
high-school number two the hell theory
fan theory that’s been making the rounds
for decades longtime viewers of
Gilligan’s Island have picked up on
various clues leading them to conclude
that our castaways are stuck in hell
although people have been saying it
about lost for years some Gilligan fans
have decided that all their favorite
characters died at the opening of the
show and are now stranded on an island
representing the afterlife for the
cherry on top let’s not forget that our
castaways seem to fittingly symbolize
the seven deadly sins with Gilligan
himself serving as Lucifer before we
reveal our number one pick here are some
honorable mentions gotcha
doesn’t even suspect with
he says flora supplies Byzantine Ezra
Powell passed away last night I’m sure
you already knew about that no I just
got in an unidentified body and bin
number eight even money it was probably
someone under your care and you two can
be the dunk number one post-apocalyptic
future The Flintstones and the Jetsons
two classic sitcoms from the 60s
not to mention two of the greatest
cartoon families of all time one takes
place in the Stone Age the other high
above the clouds in a futuristic city
although seemingly centuries apart fans
still found a way to connect these
hanna-barbera properties theorizing that
the Flintstones and the rubbles live in
a post-apocalyptic wasteland while rich
families like the Jetsons created cities
up in the clouds above them George I
told you this wasn’t our car it’s not
our car
then where’s the guy it belongs to
however this doesn’t explain the
time-traveling 1987 movie The Jetsons
meet the Flintstones they’re out of the
past all right some kind of crazy flying
nuts I say let’s get out of here while
there’s still time
