Oggy and the Cockroaches (originally released in France as Oggy et les Cafards) is an animated television comedy series that was censored in some countries where it was aired, especially in Southeast Asia. The cuts included the scene when Jack puts out the fire in Shake Oggy Shake. The scenes were probably cut for kids so they wouldn't imitate the things that are usually dangerous in real life, such as when the cockroaches put a magnifying glass next to Oggy's face while relaxing out in the beach in Beachcombers or the characters eating keys as shown in Take Cover, Locked Outside, To Serve and Protect, and Airship House.
The scene where Oggy tries cooling down from being force fed hot sauce by drinking water, eating ice and blowing a fan into his mouth was cut, possibly to prevent young audiences from trying to prank others in the same way.
Mission Oggy
The scene where Oggy and Dee Dee are forced through the pipe of a washing machine is cut from Thailand broadcast, possibly so that young viewers wouldn't get the idea of climbing into their washing machine.

In most countries, Jack putting out a fire by stomping on it was cut, likely to prevent kids from trying to extinguish fires in the same way.

USA censorship[]
When the episode "Formula 1" was first released, it featured Jack flirting with a woman in pink overalls and paying lot of attention to the woman's body. To remove that sensuality, the episode was revised in 2019 so that Jack instead flirted with Olivia during the episode. Olivia is a character who looks like Oggy in another color, so her body did not receive any major attention. This edit possibly could be due to the fact that in real life, Formula 1 prohibited grid girls in 2018.
