Re-dubbed line in Simpsons
Was watching the "Party Posse" episode of Simpsons today. At the beginning, there is a marathon and Smithers is pulling Mr. Burns in a rickshaw. Originally, Burns said "Pull faster, rickshaw driver! You call yourself a Chinaman?" Today he said, "you call yourself Chinese?" It sounded like a re-dub from the original voice actor.
Have they done this before? I think the line was funnier originally as it suits Burns' personality and history (ie, use of out-of-date terminology).

Yes, do it a lot for syndication. The most obvious example for me was the Hullapalooza episode. They cut out Homer explaining how to say the word "JIVE", along with a part where Otto's shoes talk to him.
