One thing I noticed about Simpsons (and they've done this for years) is they advertise the bulk of the episode storyline one way for new episodes and then pick-up on one of the subplots for the repeat. That way, it appears new when it really isn't. Most Simpsons seem to start one way and take a 90 degree turn early in the episode.
Example: the family goes to the Springfield swap and then finds a Be Sharp album. (I've been rewatching Season 5 on DVD )

Between not starting new eps until after Halloween, and all the bumps and in-season repeats, what is there these days, about 10 or 12 new eps each season? Maybe this is their idea of how to get the DVD season sets out quicker--progressively shorter seasons.
