"The Simpsons" has done it again.
The iconic cartoon series has a history of gazing into the crystal ball and predicting real-life events via its comedic yellow characters.
Nearly 20 years ago, an episode of "The Simpsons" predicted that Donald Trump would one day become the US president. And in a 2012 episode, Lady Gaga performed for the town of Springfield while hanging in midair — which she did for real five years later for her Super Bowl halftime show.

On Sunday, yet another prescient "Simpsons" prediction came to light.
On the latest episode of "Game of Thrones," Daenerys Targaryen shocked fans when she and her dragon laid waste to an already surrendered King's Landing, obliterating thousands of innocent people.
We should have seen it coming though.
In 2017, on a season 29 episode of "The Simpsons" titled "The Serfsons," which spoofed various aspects of "Game of Thrones" — including the Three-Eyed Raven and the Night King — Homer revives a dragon that proceeds to incinerate a village.
Someone on Reddit pointed out that the scene bears an uncanny resemblance to the penultimate episode of "Thrones," where Daenerys is seen torching King's Landing from above.
Here are the two scenes side by side:

Unfortunately, the dragon burning the village was the last scene of that "Simpsons" skit, so we'll have to wait for Sunday night's "Game of Thrones" finale to find out who will take the Iron Throne for good.
