Sex & Nudity

Mild
44 of 75 found this mild
This is extremely tame on sex jokes. (Mostly jokes to Blanche. )
Mild sexual references in every episode. They are relatively tame for the most time, considering it's an 80's show.

Violence & Gore

None
60 of 64 found this to have none
Slapstick.

Profanity

Mild
41 of 72 found this mild
Uses of sexual obscenities such as Slut, tramp, floozy and more. Bitch is used rarely and words like damn and hell are very common too.
Mild language in most episodes, but it's mostly just hell and damn, with the occasional use of bitch.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

None
41 of 71 found this to have none
Characters drink champagne.
One character drinks sherry and rum.
A character talks about drinking Chianti.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

None
42 of 61 found this to have none
The episode, "Not Another Monday" deals with a woman wanting to commit suicide.
In the episode Room 7, Blanche attempts suicide to get demolished in her grandmother's house while being handcuffed
If turned into a movie definitely would be PG-13 for crude and sexual humor, thematic elements and for some strong language.
Arguing between characters can be intense and upsetting.
The episodes "Sick and Tired" and "72 Hours" may upset some viewers, because both have a small amount of thematic material in them (that being references to death)
Nothing very frightening is seen throughout the series.
