Nick At Nite made a weird edit to this episode after its first few airings. They remove the ending punchline of the story! Initial airings showed the ending "act," before the closing credits, with the hole in the wall of Toody's home, where Karpathia had been recreating "Lower Manhattan At Sunset From The New Jersey Side" after Sylvia had thrown it away. Later airings cut to the end credits after the act fade out where Karpathia is painting on the wall. (edit) Severn Darden was one of the founding members of the Second City comedy group. (edit)

Gallery host: Here we have "Wild Horses On The Plains."
Karpathia: What wild horses on the plains?! That's "Life And Death of a Nectarine!"
Gallery host: Sorry, "Life And Death of a Nectarine." Next, we have, "Banjo in the Afternoon."
Karpathia: What banjo in the afternoon?! THAT is "Wild Horses on the Plains!" See? That is the wild and that is the horse! Oh, you don't understand! No one understands! Only one man has ever understood my paintings! (edit)
