This show was self-rated by Disney+. You can find out more about self-rating by streaming providers here.

Offensive language

Characters use terms such as “son of a b*tch” and “d*ck”. Like most sitcoms this is dampened by the comedy (and canned laughter) that defines the series.

Sexual themes

Sexual references are made by the characters throughout both seasons. Sex scenes are implied rather than shown in detail; we see kissing and conversations about the topic but nothing is shown on-screen.
