Producer apologises for Maya the Bee ‘bad joke’

The producer of Netflix’s children’s cartoon Maya the Bee has apologised after circulated social media images revealed a penis had been ‘hidden’ in its animation.

“An absolutely inappropriate image has been discovered in a four-second fly-by scene in one episode of the total of 78 episodes of the series,” French-based producer Studio 100 said in a statement. “The origin of this image obviously results from a very bad joke from one of the 150 artists working on the production.”

Studio 100 is looking for the culprit among the artists in France and Asia who worked on the series. A new version has been readied for distribution.
