What happened this week (in anything but politics)

(CNN)A two-decade-old prophecy comes true. A little brother makes a big move. And Christmas music can sometimes turn you a shade of green. Here's the politics-free side of this week's news.

    We really need to pay more attention to "The Simpsons." The show foresaw the Donald Trump presidency. And it predicted almost 20 years ago that Disney would buy Fox.

    Two thumbs up

    Next year, for the first time in decades, people in Saudi Arabia will be able to do something the rest of us take for granted: go to the movies.
