Smart Guy was a Sitcom that aired on The WB from 1997 to 1999. Once it finished it's first run, it went into syndication on Disney Channel from 1999 to 2003.

Since Smart Guy was made for Primetime Network Television, it dealt with more adult storylines and jokes for a older audience. When it starting airing on Disney channel, the episodes were not edited or changed besides removing some minor curse words.

This was back when Disney Channel didn't have a wide selection of their own programming yet and their guidelines for what could be said and shown wasn't so restricted. This is just to show how much Disney Channel has changed in almost 20 years since Smart Guy was last shown.

Fast Froward to today and I believe Disney Channel would not air Smart Guy in its entire form due to its jokes not suitable for their 2-11 demographic and because it has produced a lot more sitcoms more suitable for its audience.

If you were to watch any Disney Channel show produced after Smart Guy left the channel, you wouldn't see any storylines or jokes like this but remember this a Disney produced show made for The WB, but aired on Disney Channel in its entirely after its WB run.

Smart Guy is now available on Disney+ but only through an adult profile. It is not available on the kids profile along with other former Disney Channel programming Boy Meets World.

Thank you all for watching and hope you enjoy all these clips from Smart Guy.
