Sex themes
A man paints portraits with his genitals for a living. In one episode, characters talk about his profession in detail. Characters make numerous references to the man’s genitals, with words like “cock”, “knob”, and “penis”.
In one scene, a character poses as a model while the man paints their character’s portrait. We only see the painter’s bottom. Most of the time their body is covered by the large canvas.
One character jokingly asks if the painter used his “jizz” to paint their portrait.
A lady briefly discusses with Helen her married sex life.
Cruelty
A possum in a tree is shot with a slingshot. We see it drop dead from the tree and later see it scooped into a bag.
Offensive language
Low level offensive language such as “ass”, “sh*t”, and “bastard” are used infrequently.
