Common Side Effects: parents' guide

Animated but realistic: people are shot and stabbed with visible blood, an agent dies from a planted mine, a man is shoved off a cliff onto rocks, and a house is burned. One character shoots herself in the chest to get a healing mushroom.

Profanity runs throughout the season, including f-words and s-words, so expect it in most episodes rather than as rare outbursts.

In episode 4 a main character and her boyfriend have sex on a work trip. Adult Swim rates that episode TV-14 with an S label for sexual situations, and no source described nudity. She also lies to him about meeting another man.

Drugs drive the story: a pharmaceutical giant is the villain, characters take the mushroom and hallucinate, a group doses a city water tower with it, and one man takes several at once and has a terrifying trip. Adults drink wine.

Tense chases, a federal agent who stalks and harasses a main character, a plotted plane crash, an armed raid and frightening hallucinations. A main character's mother dies in a fall from a tree, and other characters are killed on screen.
