Did they change tonights eps?

They mentioned something about celebrity boxing. I don't remember CB being on when this eps first aired. I just wondering if they did changed this eps.

Pretty sure that celebrity boxing was mentioned in original air -

but -

can anyone confirm that the painting otto looted was Picasso's Guernica? Also, I believe it was black and white in the original showing, and color now? Or am I seeing things?

It was Guernica... well, it was a drawing of Guernica, obviously meant to be Guernica. Picasso did very few works in that style and scale. There is very little colour in the original... almost none. I thought that the version from tonight had a bit more colour than the original.

It also had a different aspect ratio, I thought... the original is about 11:26. Mind you, we only saw it for a moment. It definitely was scaled down, though... the original is nearly 26' long.

I think that is the first appearance of Guernica in the Simpsons. Anyone?

I missed the first run of that episode, so I can't answer the second question.

There's a reference to it in "Mom and Pop Art". Burns says that he had the opportunity "to buy 'Guernica' for a song. Luckily for me, that song was 'White Christmas', and by holding on to it, I made *billions*!"

Yep. But if by appearance you mean "they showed it," this is the first time we've actually seen "Guernica."

I forgot about that reference. Is there a list of fine art references in the Simpsons? There really should be... there is a large number of them....

No, that was said during a commercial for the original airing. This line obviously got cut. And the Celebrity Boxing line was definitely in the original airing. In fact, celebrity boxing aired immediately following the original episode.
