It's funny, but I find it confusing that the style change happens on the same case the dog is announcing it. IMO, the style change should then occur on the next case.

In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is a magic xylophone, or something? Ha ha, boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

I actually prefer it the way it's executed.

Maybe I'm thinking way too much about this, but each panel obviously takes some time amount of time to draw, and likewise each panel portrays some finite amount of time--not just an instant snapshot of the story. So as the dog is yelling at him, his drawing quality is degrading as he is working on the panel, leading to an inconsistent quality within the panel.

he starts by drawing himself and the dog is drawn after its commentary/intervention
