CUTS:
- R0 America- Warner Home Video - Yes, severely edited from the original ABC broadcast version. Around 17 minutes are missing, including the lines of a limericks around the original commercial breaks: "Unfortunately, this was a known issue going into the production process. All of the 35mm original negative and intermediate elements were all cut to the current (shorter) length. This was a very unusual case, and the only longer version we could track down that survived was in faded 16mm reference prints. Of course all this was done 40 yrs ago, and no one back then anticipated future distribution such as home video, so it was decided to go with the higher quality shorter cut for the DVD release."
