Violence & Gore

Moderate

A man crushes another man's skull while he's screaming for help. We can see his face getting crushed.
Season 5 contains more graphic violence than the previous seasons. Includes throats sliced, blood splattering, severed limbs, characters crushed to death, etc. One character's heart is ripped out of his chest.
Violent content increases as the series progresses: first seasons contain intense sci-fi type action and some deaths. Later seasons have more strong violence and scenes of torture, plus blood and some gore present. S4 to S6 are the most violent from my perception. S7 contains an EP that shows a lot of gore but it's mostly exaggerated.
There is a lot of torture. Graphic torture and screaming
After season 3, violence gets pretty bloody and graphic.
In season 8, there is almost no blood or strong violence up to episode 6. In episode 7 it gets really strong, with people being drilled, sawed, and brutally mauled. This contains very high amounts of blood like what you'd find in an R-rated movie.
During an autopsy scene, a man has the top of his head cut, revealing the skull. The surgeon then picks into and removes it, showing the dead man's brain.
During season 4, there are hyper-realistic robots that look like humans that attack the agents. Due to this, there is intense action with breaking their heads, power-drilling into their eyes, and dismemberment. There is blood in the robots to add realism to them. This makes for more violent scenes.
Seasons 4-7 are extremely violent and disturbing.
TV-14 violence type: blood, gore, brutal and graphic.

Profanity

Mild
81 of 120 found this mild
Very little language is present throughout the series.
Frequent use of very mild profanities such as "damn" and "hell", but some stronger words have been used occasionally such as "son of a bitch" or "bastard".

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

Mild
84 of 110 found this mild
Occasionally drinking has been depicted.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Moderate
67 of 119 found this moderate
Even after Coulson's revival arc, the series is still intense and violent.
There is some scary content, such as jump scares and paranormal content. This is very infrequent, though.
