Disney buys 20th Century Fox (Season 10, Episode 5: “When You Dish Upon a Star”)
The episode titled “When You Dish Upon a Star,” mentions many celebrities. The end of the Upon features the 20th Century Fox logo above “A Division of Walt Disney Co.” The show was obviously just poking fun at their parent company and probably didn’t really think much of it.

However, to everyone’s surprise, in July 2018, Fox ended up selling to The Walt Disney Co. Do you think the show writers knew that Homer Simpson and Mickey Mouse would be in the same house? Or do you think this is just another random coincidence of when life imitates art? Considering the episode aired back in the ’90s, I doubt the staff knew.
