Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that adult characters do a lot of social drinking, frequently swilling wine out of large, seemingly bottomless vessels -- and occasionally making cloudy decisions as a result. There's also some mild language (mostly of the "damn," "hell," and "whore" variety) and comical violence. Sex played an important role in the pilot (with implied sex acts, women in lingerie, and some flashes of skin), although it became less prominent in later episodes.

Sexual Content

Lots of discussion and jokes about sex. In the past, characters have had casual sex with younger men and women, and visuals have included bare male chests, lingerie, and implied sex acts (including oral sex and masturbation).

Violence

Some mild physical violence (pushing, shoving, hitting someone with a sign) that's meant to be funny.

Language

Words such as "hell," "damn," and "crap" are used frequently, as are phrases such as "hot as balls" and "you should hit that."

Social Behavior

Friendship is a recurring theme, and so is looking out for family. Older women are presented as being independent and sexually powerful, although aging and getting older is usually portrayed in a pseudo-negative light.

Consumerism

Not applicable

Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol

Frequent social drinking (wine is a favorite), sometimes to the point of excess and cloudy judgment. A secondary character smokes cigarettes.
