* ColorBlindConfusion: The title character had whether or not he was color blind flip-flopped with two episodes touching on it, the first where Ed wants a color TV but Wilbur refuses to get him once since horses are color blind, but Ed proves him wrong by pointing out the color of the clothes he's wearing. In a later episode Ed wins a color TV in a trivia contest, and a fight among Ed and Wilbur ensues about whether it will go in the house or the barn. In the end Ed steals the TV and watches it in the barn, and decides to let Wilbur have it, since he discovered he was actually color blind.
