For a contemporary (or at least in the 1990's) audience, Thunderbirds underwent a repackage, redub, and rebroadcast as part of FOX Kids' Saturday morning line-up. Attack of the Alligators! was among the selected episodes, and was first (and last) broadcast on July 23rd, 1994 at 8:30am. The story had once more been compressed into a 19 minute adventure, and while many scenes were removed or swapped (for instance, the story here opens with Virgil and Alan blasting off to fix the antennae, then shifting to Orchard’s laboratory afterwards), the basic plot overall remained intact.

abstract
| - For a contemporary (or at least in the 1990's) audience, Thunderbirds underwent a repackage, redub, and rebroadcast as part of FOX Kids' Saturday morning line-up. Attack of the Alligators! was among the selected episodes, and was first (and last) broadcast on July 23rd, 1994 at 8:30am. The story had once more been compressed into a 19 minute adventure, and while many scenes were removed or swapped (for instance, the story here opens with Virgil and Alan blasting off to fix the antennae, then shifting to Orchard’s laboratory afterwards), the basic plot overall remained intact. With that being said, at least one scenario was altered, ultimately changing part of the story’s conclusion. In the original episode, Culp’s attempt to escape the house was thwarted by another Alligator, presumably killing him. To comply with FOX’s broadcast standards, the shot of his boat being destroyed was cut (though confusingly enough, the earlier scene of the first boat’s destruction, along with him sinking into the swamp were retained), and the episode ended instead with a quick summary by Jeff Tracy that Culp was going to jail. While removed here, Culp’s final fate was restored in all its glory for Turbocharged Thunderbirds.
