You may wish to avail yourself of the episode airdates list:
www.snpp.com/guides/episode_list.html
The Crepes of Wrath ran twice on the original Sunday slot (and once
more during season 6):
4/15/90-C (Sun) 	6/24/90-C (Sun) 	9/13/90 (Thur) 	7G13  	11  	The
Crepes of Wrath
Fourth airing:  	2/26/95-B 	(Sun)

The series ran on Sundays at 8:30 for the whole of season 1 (not just
7G08), I believe following Married with Children. Seasons 2-5 saw it
Thursdays at 8, and then with season 6 it moved to its permanent home,
Sundays at 8. I would assume the time you missed 7G13 was in September
'90, after the schedule change (season 2 hadn't begun yet but it
appears it moved in mid-August). The Thursday VCR mishaps would have
been correct for 2-5, then.
