Sex & Nudity

  • You can possibly see a shadow of a girl's nipple as she's being bathed by a doctor. Done rather sexually.
  • Elaine says "I wanna slide my tongue around you like a snake" as a joke. The whole episode revolves around the fact that there is a woman recording sexy and erotic messages on Jerry's tape recorder.
  • Episode-specific details have been deleted. Only provide series or season details. Episode specific items should be added to the episode.
  • In the end of one episode, we can see Newman and Kramer's mom briefly having sex.
  • George jokes about how a story must be good or else it's "simply just masturbation."
  • An entire plot is how the main characters have a contest to see who can go the longest without masturbating, although the word "masturbate" or one of its variations is never used. A nude woman across the street from one of the main character's apartments makes someone the first to lose the contest. The woman is never shown, though. References are made to JFK's "butt."
  • An entire sub-plot revolving around orgasms, including multiple uses of the word "orgasm."
  • Rachel sees George naked and giggles and he tries to convince her that it was just temporary shrinkage because he had been in the pool.
  • A sex scene. All of the action is offscreen, but lots of moaning and heavy breathing can be heard.
  • There are many references to birth control and sponge-worthy. In one scene George is seen trying to open a condom.
  • George tries to combine food, sex and tv and there are many references to it.
  • Another one revolves around the word "ass" (see profanity). Some pretty heavy kissing scenes, occasional implied sex and nudity.

Violence & Gore

  • There are a few rather dark episodes revolving violence. Kramer, pretending to be someone, if he's ever killed someone before. We also see a nightmare where an FBI agent shoots Jerry. Fairly graphic. There is also a scene where George and Jerry visit a slaughter house. Dead corpses shown. It's mostly slapstick comedy. Nothing serious.

Profanity

  • An episode revolves around Jerry accidentally teaching a kid the f-word the kid uses it many times but it is bleeped.
  • Many uses of "Oh my God" in every episode.
  • "Son of a bitch", "bastard", "hell", and "damn" are sometimes said. "Bitch" is infrequently said. "Crap" is also used and the word "Shit" is used in the TV show.
  • There is occasional swearing in this show. There is a moment where one character says "jerk-off" (non-sexual) and another which revolves around the middle finger (which is flipped - uncensored - several times, in comical ways). Another episode revolves around use of the word "ass" (in its literal meaning) because of a license plate that says "assman."
  • There are also bleeped uses of fuck in episodes, but this is not a usual occurence.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • The character Kramer smokes in some episodes
  • Kramer smokes constantly after season 2 and it's a recurring joke. It's not that bad and its played for laughs.
  • Occasional bar/club scenes, complete with on-screen alcohol consumption. Characters frequently drink and smoke in other places and scenes as well.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Most of the time the show is only trying to be intense in a way that's meant to be fun and comical.

Spoilers

The Parents Guide items below may give away important plot points.

Sex & Nudity

  • There is a significant subplot in which George wants to the erotic film, Rochelle, Rochelle. By the end of the episode, George, Elaine, and Jerry are all watching Rochelle, Rochelle.
  • The second half of the episode unfolds due to George looking at his boss's daughter's cleavage. The episode ends with Elaine wearing a very revealing dress.

Profanity

  • In "The Busboy," you can hear Antonio say "f****r" once uncensored.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Some episodes revolves around dark subjects, played off for dark humor, like murder. Not too creepy, but can be unsettling for some.
  • The show ends with all the main characters being thrown to prison. Can be a bit intense for some.
