It's quite possible. There's also another thing - this episode in Shout's version is the same length as Mama's Review and A Date With Jennifer, the two episodes that aired before it.Mr. Handley said:What's interesting about "The Contest" is that I've found a couple of references on tvguide.com to John Wheeler being in the guest cast for this episode. I'll have to wait until I see this "new" version but I still think it's possible that this is the original broadcast version (perhaps just shown that one time). I remember when I first saw this episode in syndication that something didn't seem "right" about it, but it was so long ago I just don't remember. Oh well, either way it sounds like this set is even better than most of us had anticipated!
Kudos to Brian for the updates.
It's entirely possible that this is the version they reshot for airing, and the un-reshot version was the one that got rerun somehow.
