How was this 2days ago?
@@Ratkinganimationwhat?
@@FakeCarAccountit says 2d ago even tho it was 1 hr ago
@@Ratkinganimation he is a alt account of some one named JB. All he does is bully people from multiple accounts.

There was an episode of Mork and Mindy where Mork meets Robin Williams. This line is spoken:
"When you're a celebrity, everybody wants a piece of you, sir. Unless you can say no, there'll be no pieces left for yourself. To get that, you have to pay a very heavy price. You have responsibilities, anxieties, and to be honest, sir, some of them can't take it."
Knowing now that Robin Williams actually committed suicide in Aug 2014, that line sure resonates
He had luey(sp?) body dementia.
The midnight sun scared the shit out of me as a kid. The idea of the sun never setting, the heat ever stopping, the heat getting worse and worse each day.
I've had dreams where I would look at the clock, and it would say 11 pm or midnight, and the sun would still be out! Mostly because of this episode!
That was the episode that most made an impression on me as well. That one and the one where the old lady gets hang-up calls and it's later the calls are traced to a phone line down on her dead fiancé's grave.
The Family Guy ep where Stewie ran naked in the Mall saying "Help I escaped from Kevin Spacey's basement!!!"
That one was foreshadowing by Seth McFarlane.
Stevie😂😂😂is stewie
That one wasn’t a particular shock because it was barely a secret that Spacey was gay therefore, it’s only shocking if you don’t know how homosexuals from his era behave amongst young boys in Hollywood.
Family guy definitely has some prescient moments
@@Henry-i5hI thought it was stoolie
when phil hartman hosted SNL, he and farley had a moment on stage. it was sweet then. touching now.
It was Phil Hartman's final episode as a cast member.
The John Belushi skit from SNL should've been on here. "They said I'd be the first to die" was the first line he said in the skit where he was visiting the graves of his fellow castmates. Sadly, he WAS the first to die of his SNL alum.
John Belushi, not Jim.
@@DanielOrme names aside, my point still stands. The skit should have been here
John Belushi was deemed “ comically obese” by 1976 standards when that sketch was recorded. If you were taking bets on which cast member would die first, you would bet on him it would have nothing to do with drugs.
Snowden's actions were positive. State surveillance needs to be known and severely regulated. Privacy is important.
"Murder in Small Town X" was a murder mystery reality show where contestants were given clues and tried to figure out who the killer was, and the losers were "hunted down" by the killer. That's not the disturbing part. This is: The finale aired on September 4, 2001. The winner of the $1 million prize was a man named Angel Juarbe. His occupation? New York City firefighter. He would die responding to the tower attacks when the first tower collapsed a week later.
Wheesh! That’s incredibly disturbing!
"And then matthew perry would go on to die, just like his character chandler predicted.. 30 YEARS LATER 🤯"
The tragic irony is that he died *first,* like Chandler says in that episode.
There was an episode of "Growing Pains" where Matthew Perry guest starred as Carol's boyfriend.
His character ends up in hospital after drink driving, and the twist is that, at the end of the episode, he dies.
Not only is it disturbing because they kill him off, but the character had an addiction (except it was alcohol, not drugs).
I can't remember the name of the episode, but there's an episode of the 1980s drama Hill Street Blues with guest star Dominique Dunne. Her character, who comes from a broken home, is seen with a black eye. The black eye was real. She was in an abusive relationship, and the man would, sadly, ultimately take her life.
Requiem for a Hairbag?
@@ManictheMod yes, thank you.
Anything with OJ Simpson is bound to end up disturbing.
Here's another comment you can obsess over because your existence is so empty and meaningless
@@FakeCarAccountSilence
@@FakeCarAccountGot a life outside of trolling/harrassing others with your clearly existing alts for no reason? You clearly don't
Touch grass and admit to YOUR bullying, why don't you
@@FakeCarAccountyou obviously have no idea what you say. But that’s what I expect from someone who understands nothing. Even when people show proof to you. Because you are stubborn in your ways and then you want to make yourself by lying too. Not worth it.
@@Slayde.Wilsonhopefully RUclips will silence him when they realize how many derogatory things he says on RUclips.
Its hard for me to watch Friends now since Chandler's his eerie prediction came true, but I do because I miss Matthew Perry.
Static shock (2000) tackles serious issues like poverty, bullying, homelessness, school shootings, crime, gang related violence, riots, etc. An episode in Static shock was about Jimmy, a nerdy and quiet boy who was always bullied, but nothing was done to prevent it. He felt that the only way for the bullying to stop was by killing his bully. He brought his dad's gun to school and pointed it at his bully. No one was hurt, but only Richie was injured. I think the episode was aired 2 years after the Columbine shooting.
It was a year after
Static shock was and still is an awesome show
The DCAU is amazing I’ve watched Batman TAS, Superman TAS, Static, JL, and JL Unlimited, I’m about to start Batman Beyond
After....not before which means it didn't predict anything really.
I still can't really watch the Season Four episode of Glee, "Sweet Dreams," because it shows Cory Monteith's character Finn partying hard in college. His last performance was Beastie Boys' "You've Gotta Fight For Your Right To Party." It was his last episode before going into rehab, and his last episode of the series....he would die of an overdose the summer before the fifth season.
The Family Guy episode where Stewie runs naked through the mall screaming "I just escaped from Kevin Spacey's Basement"
The SNL episode where Hartman and Christian Slater were on playing Jeopardy should be the top of this list.
What are talking about?
@@johnathonkelly5117I’d also like to know
@@johnathonkelly5117 it was a sketch called “Dysfunctional Family Feud” Hartman played a verbally/emotionally abusive father, Christian Slater who hosted that week played one of his sons who makes reference to owning a gun with intent to use it on Phil
This Cosby one at the end....😩
I think S2E3 of Friends The One Where Heckles Dies is more disturbing since Chandler worries he will die alone and sadly he did.
And Perry never had children or got married. So he really did die alone.
What got me is when that girl fell to her death, in front of her friends. That is just awful.
The late great Phil Hartman. R.I.P.
This One Doesn't Count But Death Picks Cotton from King Of The Hill (1997-2010) the one where Cotton Hill dies but with my biological Father dying In 2019 and Stepfather passing In April of this year It hits a little too close to home In my opinion
Mistaken identity - the fresh prince of bel air
OJ is dead?? Well shit..had no idea
And, in an amazing coincidence, the person who killed Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman died the same day.
We still miss you, Chris.
My goodness the Laura Sadler inclusion is deep cut for a North American channel. I don't know whether to applaud the researchers or curse them for being reminded of the sad waste of life and potential a young person in the prime of their life and going places in their chosen career suggests but can never quite reach, nevermind the eerie coincidence at the heart of her inclusion here.
I know one episode from Kids WB! Cartoon show Road Rovers, "A Hair of the Dog That Bit You", In this episode A werewolf pack attacks London and transforms several citizens, including the British royal family. include Princess Diana and Prince Charles, Round that time Charles and Diana were divorce and a year later Diana was killed in car crash which involved fleeing Photographers, The Scene was removed after the episode aired., You should added it in future Most Disturbing TV Episodes list.
Homer vs the City of New York from the Simpson - the moment Bart holds up an advertisement that they could take a bus to New York City for only $9. To the right of that image of a 9 are the World Trade Center towers creating an 11.
This wasn't on the list but there was an episode of The Monkees that was disturbing. In the episode "The Monsterus Monkee Mash" there was a scene where Michael and Micky were remaining. Peter and Davy had disappeared thanks to some vampires. Micky had mentioned that if something happened to Mike than he would go solo. I felt that somehow Micky Dolenz had predicted that he would be the last surviving Monkee!
He sings something like "Hey, hey I'm the Monkee".
You should do the same one about movies.
I have a movie one.
It is about a movie from 2011 called "Contagion".
The premise is that a man (Matt Damon) discovers his wife (Gwyneth Paltrow) dead after she fells ill after coming back from a trip.
The next day, his son gets ill and dies.
Suddenly, it is revealed that a new deadly disease killed them, and others are dying now. It is a contagious deadly disease.
In the movie, some of the following things happen:-
(1) It is caused by touching an infected person or they touch you, or something that the infected person touched.
(2) It becomes a global disease, sweeping the world and there is mass panic.
(3) They have a scene of hundreds dead in the streets from the disease, which was reported happening during COVID.
(4) Another character in the film is played by Jude Law. He plays a conspiracy theorist who thinks the whole thing is a hoax and it is made up by government to control people.
(5) At the end of the fllm, it shows how the wife caught the disease. She got it by shaking hands with a chef who hadn't washed his hands, and he had been making food that had been eaten by a bat.
It is amazing how close this film gets to predicting COVID-19. It is a fantasy film and this was nine years before COVID-19 struck the world. Eerie.
I remember that after a few months into lockdown in my country one channel broadcasted a grindhouse of "Contagion" followed by Dustin Hoffman's "Outbreak" (called "Deadly Virus" in my country) one after another and there were some protests from a group of people against the network for their "bad taste"
I watched it during the first lockdown in the UK, because it was at that "laugh or cry" stage of disbelief. I also watched Outbreak. Both hit too close to what actually happened to be comfortable. More especially Contagion than Outbreak, but bow HOWDY watching both one after the other was just slightly terrifying.
Also, re: Jude Law's character, don't forget that he tries to peddle a drug that he KNOWS isn't a cure, because he'll make money off of it.
There was also a sketch that Farley did when he was a cast member called “The Relapse Guy” it was series of occurrences where Farley is sober but then “comically” relapses and wrecks the lives of everyone around him. It was pretty much a blueprint of his life
To be fair, you can watch just about any tv show episode, and find something “disturbing” in it, if you look closely
How I miss the Twilight Zone and The Dark Side
But it feels it would just be like normal life now, BIZARRE
I just love when the Twilight Zone gets it's flowers, iconic series fr
So that is disturbing in "Twilight Zone" , but three people being killed onscreen for real, isn't?
Who would've guessed a lifelong drug addict like Matthew Perry would die young
That' s what I said, shocker! 🙄
His character died young in an episode of *Growing Pains" as well.
Do top anime moments that are disturbing because of what we know now.
Every That 70's Show episode ever!
Exactly, Danny Masterson makes everything disturbing now
What we need really is to stop being caught off guard when someone shows up on drugs like Farley or shows up drunk. Until we're willing to have tough counversations, you guys are gonna keep making videos about how we should have known better or should have picked up on XYZ. It's about doing it.
On The Sopranos when they did Christopher’s intervention, he tells Tony that he’ll have a heart attack by the time he’s 50… James Gandolfini died oh a heart attack at 51.😢
"I asked if the plot of my novel, hijacking planes and flying them into buildings, had been discussed. And he thought about it, looked at me and said, 'Tom, I'm not at liberty to reveal the details on such a scenario. To the best of my knowledge it hadn't been. But next time we meet it will be.'"
That was Tom Clancy and he was interviewed about such a plot being rejected by his editor for being too farfetched. I was there, this was right on September 12th Australian time so the evening of the 11th, around 8-9 PM depending on your time zone.
No conspiracy here. Bin Laden confessed. Nothing from the Taliban, Al Qaeda, refuting his admission. But Clancy said it, he ran the idea by one of his chiefs of staff friends, that is a fact.
I mean, for #10 I guess when it comes to TV shows it fits the theme of the list more. I guess not really many TV shows explored that theme, but other than that that particular theme of an all watching computer, super surveillance system has been done by plenty of times. Even in comics, there was a thing called Brother Eye. Even in the Dark Knight movie, they had a similar system that tracked and spied on everyone so Batman could find Joker that Fox ended up destroying in the end because of ethical reasons.
Perry was definitely going to be the first to die. It was just shocking that he was 55.
9:00 the reason Chris Rock appears in this opening monologue is because Lorne Michaels was afraid Farley might OD or flake, so he had Rock waiting backstage to fill-in as emergency host just in case
Sad but true. 😢
Dark moments. Really. These episodes have many. Star Trek,Friends(really bitter sweet),Chris Farley,Plague. Lone Gunmen really creepy
That Twilight Zone episode always reminds me that all through high school - I graduated in 1972 - we were told that the world was growing colder, and that by the 1990's we would all be crowded into tiny apartments, fighting over food. Then it was changed to warming, and in developed countries, we're all too well fed, and there is still plenty of room and housing. That's the reason I refuse to go into panic mode over climate predictions. Yeah, there is a little warming, but climate(s) are always changing. I call myself an anti-catastrophist.
"Flippin' 'eck Benny" Grange Hill getting a mention and it's not on the WatchMojoUK channel.

Thought i had a stroke.
There are a lot of The Simpsons episodes that have predicted a lot of crazy s*** I know you guys have covered it but you know that just made me remember all that by watching this one
The last one should have been included without question!😅😅😂😂😂
Why dose every watchmojo episode have a 9/11 segment change it up a bit
Yeah who would of thought the one on friends who did drugs would be the first to go, shocker 🙄
Temperature drops? We’ve had the hottest days in a while.
Insert liberal comeback here
You'd have to be an ultimate snowflake to find any of these "disturbing" 💯
OJ Simpson showed promise as an actor?
Farley also had a hoarse voice throughout the entire episode.
Yeah, most of these have nothing to do with information we know now.
'10 things that happened on television at some point" would be a more accurate title.
Family guy episode turban cowboy
The Boston bombings
Family guy episode baby not on bored.
Robin Williams
Dislike.
There’s a button for that
This was weak.
Hello good afternoon ❤❤❤
Meh. Mojo's standards are FAR too low.
Are people psychic ? The virus before it happened , with the same name ? 🤔
Covid had been known about for decades before it became a global pandemic. SARS was Covid...which was mentioned in the clip.
Covid-19 is the name. Corona is a category which includes Covid-19, SARS, and even some varieties of the common cold.
