"The Hedda Hopper Show - This Is Hollywood" broadcast a 30 minute radio adaptation of the movie on March 22, 1947 with Danny Kaye and Virginia Mayo reprising their film roles.

Lionel Stander repeats his role from the original version of the film, The Milky Way, starring Harold Lloyd, ten years before.

Even though Kay Thompson is credited, her scenes were cut from the final release print.

The Milky Way (1934). Comedy. Written by Lynn Root and Harry Clork. Directed by William W. Schorr. Cort Theatre: 8 May 1934- Jul 1934 (closing date unknown/63 performances). Cast: John Brown, Brian Donlevy (as "Speed McFarland"), Leo Donnelly (as "Gabby Sloan") final Broadway role, Edward Emerson, William Foran, Gladys George (as "Anne Westey"), Emily Lowry, Hugh O'Connell (as "Burleigh Sullivan"), Bernard Pathe. Produced by Sidney Harmon and James R. Ullman. Note: Considering it did not recoup it's investment, this play proved surprising durable on film. It was purchased rather cheaply by Paramount - recently out of receivership - and produced as a Harold Lloyd vehicle as The Milky Way (a flop) and reworked a decade later by Samuel Goldwyn as The Kid from Brooklyn (a hit) with Danny Kaye in the starring role.
