    Well, I'm glad I just happened to be recording the entire block last night to check out later. The third airing of WABF06 (8/27/17, 8 pm) replaced the opening (25 seconds) with a special new one dedicated to the 8/21 eclipse (I'm not sure why they didn't do one on 8/20 - maybe they did and I missed it).
    It's about the same length. It just has Homer on a lawn chair with bandages over his eyes:
    Homer: For all you watching the eclipse, a few words of warning...
    Marge (os): It's too late! It's over!
    Homer: Do not look at the eclipse directly! A beer bottle is not an acceptable filter.
    (Bart is seen spray painting "Loser" on Homer's shirt.)
    Homer: Nor does the beer make a good eyewash. Oh God, I won't see the end of Game of Thrones! Nooooo!
    (Regular TV credits.)
    So, that happened. And I'm sure you'll never see it again in any official way.
