- The version of the film that appears on Turner Classic Movies features The Who's Rock N' Roll Circus performance window-boxed and surrounded by flashing marquee lights in the manner of the film's original theatrical presentation.
- The original official release of the Kids Are Alright at movie theatres was 106 minutes. But later theatre copies and the official BMG video release is 99 minutes, cutting out two video segments.
- On the newly re-mastered DVD release of 2003, the Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus clip of The Who performing "A Quick One" has been restored to its entirety, and this time it appears in full-frame without the marquee lights.
- The DVD release also features alternate angle footage of the Shepperton Studios performances.
- The 2003 DVD is the first home video edition to include the movie's complete credits. All previous versions ended as soon as "Long Live Rock" ended, but the theatrical edition continued rolling credits (words only, no Who footage) for an additional two minutes, with the song "The Kids Are Alright" heard underneath. The deletion of this section of the credits on previous home video editions is what led to the common misconception that the song "The Kids Are Alright" never appears in the movie that was named after it.
