Feb 14, 2019 · In the latest Screen Rant video, we compiled a list of some of the craziest fan theories for The Simpsons. With hundreds of hours worth of material and storylines, there are plenty of wild, imaginative, and somewhat bizarre theories out there.

- Homer is still in a coma. One of the earliest "Simpsons" fan theories even predates Reddit. On April Fools' Day 1993, fans got the classic episode "So It's Come to This: A Simpsons Clip Show" (Season 4, Episode 18), which concluded with Homer waking up from a seven-week coma.
- Homer is still collecting royalties from the Be Sharps. The Season 5 premiere, "Homer's Barbershop Quartet," planted a seed for a theory that explains how Homer can live such a good life despite having a low wage, menial job.
- Hans Moleman is multiple mole men. Hans Moleman, everyone's favorite elderly sad sack, always seems to be nearby whenever a "Simpsons" joke needs a physical comedy payoff — or somebody to die.
- The Simpsons live in Springfield, Maine. For decades, the "Simpsons" writers have played a sort of "Whack-A-Mole" game with fans. Every time viewers think they have a lead on which state the show's Springfield is located in (33 out of 50 states has one, so there are plenty of candidates), another clue jokingly contradicts it.

- 5,581 VOTES. Bart Will Grow Up To Create 'The Simpsons' Matt Groening based the show on his own family, down to the names of his parents and sisters.

- 4,056 VOTES. Bart Was A Stonecutter Before Homer. TyPiper93x2 lays out the argument that Bart was part of the secret order because of Grandpa Abe’s membership, and that he already knows all about it when Homer brings it up.
- 4,896 VOTES. Every Simpson Is A Super Genius. This theory holds that all of The Simpsons are incredibly gifted, but only Lisa capitalizes on it.
- Homer Is in a Coma. This one almost makes TOO much sense. The Redditor called Hardtopickaname believes that Homer never woke up from his coma during season four's clip show.
- Springfield Exists Out of Time & Space. The Springfield Effect is among the more popular and detailed Reddit theories out there. Springfield seems to be stuck in a time loop since none of the residents have aged, despite the years clearly passing by in the rest of the world.
- There Are Multiple Molemen. Springfield is generally not the safest place, but that goes double for Hans Moleman. Whenever the unlucky Ralph Melish shows up, fans know that Homer is about to unintentionally deliver a world of hurt.
- The Simpsons Are Actually Geniuses. After decades on the air, nobody involved with The Simpsons can be called stupid. Lisa is the only member of the family praised for her intelligence, a distinction that might not be accurate.
‘The Simpsons’ writers are not shy about using the show to shut down some of the very ridiculous fan theories viewers have floated.
