You can now get PAID to watch every episode of The Simpsons

Dream job alert! 😍

Author: Hannah MellinPublished 14th Oct 2021

At some point in our lives, we’ve snuggled up on the sofa to watch endless episodes of The Simpsons – but with over 33 seasons and over 700 episodes over the show’s 30 year history, we think only a handful of people have watched every single one.

Going back and watching every single episode of The Simpsons is a mammoth task (honestly, we love a binge watch but we definitely don’t have the time for all that), but one company is offering to PAY someone to watch the entire show from the very beginning.

According to Newsweek, UK online gambling site PlatinCasino is offering one die-hard fan a lump sum to become their dedicated ‘Simpsons Series Analyst,’ giving them the gig of watching every single minute of show, from the first episode in 1989 to now. It even includes watching the Simpsons Movie that was released back in 2007.

It’s not your usual career, but there is a reason for the HUGE task, and it’s to do with the series’ being known for predicting future global events. The job offers the lucky person £5,000 – or £6.80 per episode – to record a log of all of the significant storylines and events in the show’s history, in order to form a list of predictions that can be referred to in the future.

Over the years, The Simpsons has famously predicted a number of historic events, including Donald Trump’s presidency and the horsemeat scandal. In 1995, the show introduced the idea of a watch you could use as a phone, nearly 20 years before the Apple Watch was released.

Philip Wicinski, U.K. Country Manager at PlatinCasino.co.uk, said: "After a hard couple of years, we at PlatinCasino.co.uk are intrigued to see what 2022 will hold. So ahead of the new year, we thought what better way than putting The Simpsons to the test and seeing if, after searching each series, we can predict what the next year, and future, has in store for us."

They added: "We think the job is a unique and dream role for many—who wouldn’t love getting paid to watch TV, let alone The Simpsons? If you wouldn’t mind spending the next few weeks watching the most loved cartoon family on TV while getting paid for it, please apply now!"
