Censors
In the episode Art Thief, some full shots of Michelangelo's David statue were cut on Disney XD (Asia) due to nudity.
In the episode Scaredy Bean, the scene where the monster villain called "The Glob" expels the human skeleton out of its mouth, and the part where Mr. Bean accidentally spits out the spoon on the man's head were cut on Disney XD (Asia), due to spitting, and the disturbing content of the former scene.
