The 1963 American version is six minutes shorter than the 1962 Japanese original. They might have added some American actors too.

I saw a badly edited version of this several years ago. I laughed my head off at some of the absurdities. I don't know if this is it, or if what I saw had been edited even more, to add more commercials.

This is preceded by 2 hours of Three Stooges short films. The Chicago station that hosts MeTV shows the previous week's Svengoolie film during that time. if you are uncertain of where to see it, check for channel and run time in your area at www.metv.com or your local listings.
