International broadcast

Singapore broadcast

The series was broadcast on weekdays from 4.30pm to 5.30 pm due to local broadcast laws prohibiting radio or television broadcasts in Chinese dialects, the show was dubbed into Mandarin when it aired on Singapore's MediaCorp Channel 8, thus making it the first channel to broadcast the show in Mandarin.

Repeat Telecast (2019)

It repeated its run from Monday - Friday from 4.00am to 6.00am as it has taken over from Mom's House at the 04:00 SST timeslot.

gollark: That crashes.
gollark: A stack-based calculator which may be turing-complete, nothing else.
gollark: Interesting Haskell code:```haskelllet 2 + 2 = 5 in 2 + 2 -- returns 5```
gollark: Ah, C, how wonderful it is with its total lack of namespacing.
