Stranger Things (2016)

Episode 2: Sex Scene. A high school boy and girl have sex, with girl in her bra and panties on. Then from behind, you see her, taking her shirt off but no nudity. The sex scene goes back and forth, about 6 times. I was told that this was the worse part in all episodes.

Only some of the episodes in the series have kissing scenes.

In Season 1, someone mentions that they saw their friends kissing

Lots of kisses between teens and between adults

A girl makes a remark that two kids "Have been having s- since 7th grade."

Mike and el have a few short kissing scenes

A teen wakes up shirtless lipstick on his cheek, sex is heavily implied.

Some teens imitate kissing as a joke

A small child is seen clotheless except for underwear

A picture of a woman in swimwear is in the back of a room and is shown for about 3 seconds.

Steve tells Billy "Yes it's me, don't cream your pants"

Max Looks in Billy's Draw Seeing Photos of Women Being half Topless.

Teen characters kiss frequently; discussion of dating, flirting. During a steamy make-out scene, a teen takes her shirt off, showing her bra. An adult character prepares to have an affair with an older teen heartthrob.

In one of the season 3 episodes Max says to Eleven "when Billy is alone with a girl they make like really crazy noises" Eleven says to Max "they scream?" and Max replies "yes but happy screams" Eleven asks "What's happy screams?" and Max changes the subject. Just a few episodes after that Lucas asks what a good scream is before Max quickly says "it doesn't matter".

Nancy takes her shirt off in front of Steve and is seen in her bra and Steve responds by saying "oh damn" and the girls at school mock Nancy by moaning and saying "oh Steve ah ah oh Steve" to try and embarrass her.

Two Characters make passionate noises. Later on, others express how they sounded, implying that the had s*x.

In season 4 episode 2, Hopper is seen being sprayed by a hose with heavy spraying cold water naked. Briefly can see his buttocks but the water is spraying to hard to see.

No nudity in the entire series. However, there are multiple sex references and romantic talks. None of them are particularly in detail or graphic. In one episode there are some men in a steam room it is implied that they are naked but they have a towel on them. Lucas sees them and says "oh, I think I just threw up in my mouth".

A child is strangled to death. Not very graphic but could disturb some viewers

Demodogs get inside a lab elevator full of people and attack and feast on them (the actual attack is not shown but you see the aftermath with a moderate amount of blood and dead bodies when the elevator arrives at the next floor).

A man is beaten in his office. First, his head is pushed and slammed into the door, breaking his nose, and he is then repeatedly punched (we only hear this from outside the locked door) and then is thrown over his desk. After this, his finger is forced into a cigar slicer and the person beating him pushes down on it almost cutting his finger, but stops after his answers are given. He is then taken hostage, but not further hurt. His face is bloody all throughout the episode.

Lots of characters are killed throughout the series, occasionally quite brutally but most of it is moderate.

In a hospital, there is a chase scene which is somewhat gory. A man is stabbed with scissors - blood spurts out. One man's nose is broken, but the blood is black. At the end, their skins melts into chunks of blood.

In the early season 1 there is a monster with an appearance which is slimy and sticky but not gory.

In season 3 two men die with their bodies melting and all their guts and blood moving by them self to form a monster. This can make any squeamish people watching feel very disgusted and horrified. Most of the show is nowhere near this gory though.

Season 3 and 4 are the goriest seasons. Season 3 contain a LOT of violence but Season 4 is WAY more violent WITH kids being killed in the first episode (Might be disturbing to other viewers)

A character is shown with a bloody nose frequently throughout the series.

A man is stabbed in the neck with scissors. Not too graphic.

Monsters are pretty creepy and frightening

Monsters in season 3 are made out of guts and blood and can be seen as disturbing and graphic

In season 3 a character has a very graphic wound on their leg. Another character then cuts into the leg and movies his hand around under the skin. This is shown in detail and is quite graphic and pretty gory/bloody, but is mostly shown in brief glimpses with half of it focusing ont the characters reactions.

In season 3, a character is thrown into something and is turned into bloody pulp. Brief but easiy seen

Seasons 1 and 2 are milder in terms of brutality, and definitely less frequent in terms of violence. However, season 3 and 4 are much more violent. There are some gory and uncomfortable scenes as the series progresses.

Season 4 is definitely the most violent. It includes 4 different people lifted up into the air by a supernatural force, and their body parts move in all different directions with the sound of bones breaking and eyeballs suddenly disappearing. This is a bit more graphic than usual for the show, but is more weird and frightening than outright gory.

A monster attacks a group of men in a prison as they try and fail to fight back. Most of them are killed and while the deaths are quick, some are quite bloody.

Season 4 is the scariest season by far and maybe the most violent. Several children are murdered by floating into the air before all their limbs snap and their eyes bleed before dissapearing with blood coming out of their sockets. The combat and shooting this season is much more intense and realistic as well.

In season 4, hopper and some other Russian prisoners battle the demogorgan, it is quite brutal because the demogorgan bite their heads off and a fair amount of blood is shown.

People are electrocuted in slow motion, and a pile of blood and flesh is shown. Not too graphic though.

The lab massacre scene in season 4 is the most bloodiest scene in the show so far.

Eleven kills several people using her powers, you see blood coming out of their eyes. Not too graphic but quite disturbing.

In the season 4 finale, a teenager is shown being melted in half briefly. He screams in agony and the shot pans away

A group of jocks plot to murder one of the characters due to conspiracy that he killed one of the jock's girlfriend. They arm themselves with guns and assorted melee weapons to do so.

In Season 4, 4 teenagers have their bones snapped, limbs broken, mouth fractured and eyes bleeding before their eyes get forced back into their brain.

Not gory but disoriented violence

Sometimes there are parts where you may sense gore coming, but it's either a jumpscare or something comedic.

Characters are injured and blood is seen coming out of them. There is gore and blood in all seasons but it is more severe in season four.

In season 4, a traumatic flashback is shown in which it is implied that a baby is burned alive in it's cradle. We don't see the baby, but we see the burning cradle and the baby screaming. Not graphic but very upsetting.

Season 4 is by far the most graphic out of the first 4.

Frequent use of "fag".

In Season 3 there are 3 uses of "fuck, one is used as fucking when Billy says " I'll fucking gut you!"; to Max. Seasons 1,2 and 4 do not have any uses of "fuck" but many frequent uses of shit, bitch, goddamn, ass, dick, and pussy.

Frequent use of "son of a bitch" by Dustin

Season 1 includes the word "slut".

Season 4 has some middle fingers, even starting from episode one.

18-30 fucks an episode. Pervasive language.

A character uses the word "bullshit" about 9 times in a row.

Frequent uses of "goddamn", especially in Seasons 3 and 4. Various abuses of "Jesus" as well, including "Christ" and "Jesus H. Christ".

Cursing includes "shit," "hell," "asshole," "dammit." A woman calls another a "bitch." One boy calls another a "pussy" and says they're "screwed." Bullying words include "freaks," "toothless" (in reference to a character with a genetic disorder), "frog face," and "midnight" (in reference to a Black character). Other language: "pissed off," "douche bag," etc.

Language are crude and moderate, but in different seasons.

Two characters are drugged and begin acting euphoric (basically the same effects of MDMA)

A few teens are seen underage drinking beer in one of the first few episodes

A teenager is seen chugging a barrel of beer, it is brief, but may be somewhat shocking since he is underage.

References in conversation to marijuana, cocaine and illegal pill use. Brief and no usage is ever shown of hard drugs

In the first season hopper always smokes cigarettes and drinks beer. He also pops prescription pills frequently throughout and it's implied he may be addicted

Hopper is a chainsmoker and Joyce smokes occasionally. Billy, who is a teenager, also smokes in nearly every scene hes in.

Use of weed and heavy narcotics in season 4

Drugs are mentioned and referenced even mentions of drug dealing but the drug use itself is always hidden or off screen. One instance implies 2 people are hot boxing in a van but all we see is the smoke no joints shown. We see a baggie full of weed once and it is implied 2 characters are high throughout season 4 but it isn't gone into much detail.

The Surfer Boy Pizza delivery dude is the official pothead of Season 4 and at a point where he makes an error in judgment he blames it on the high wearing off then he vows to fix it meaning that he's gonna get high again

A main character in season 4 is a drug dealer.

Another main character in season 4 is frequently high on marijuana

Joyce and hopper are seen smoking in nearly all episodes. Some scenes they do drink

A parent smokes during stressful moments, and the sheriff not only smokes frequently but may have a pill and alcohol addiction. Underage drinking, sometimes to excess.

Occasional use of alcohol including minors getting drunk or being served alcohol both illegally and in excessive amounts. Numerous minors drinking to severe drunk stage and sickness is depicted at a party. An adult and two high school students drink vodka in a couple scenes.

Seasons 1 and 2 are more suspenseful than violent, but season 3 basically flips that, choosing to show much more violence and gory imagery. Season 4 follows suit of season 3, but in a more violent way. The entirety of season 3 has some gory scenes of rats and humans exploding into piles of flesh and bones and moving with gory sound effects.

The monster from season 3 can be pretty frightening, but the scariest monsters come from season 4.

The final episodes of each season are always very intense.

Season 3 comes with a warning mentioning frequent use of strobe lighting throughout the season. Viewers sensitive to this type of lighting and imagery may feel uncomfortable as flashing lights of all sorts are used quite a bit.

Multiple emotionally intense seasons throughout and particularly towards the end of each season.

The ending of the season 3 is extremely emotional and melancholic.

The monsters can be very frightening to younger viewers. Especially the one in Season 3

Many intense scenes where people are about to die which can put you on edge slightly. In other words, it may be funny, but it's not a light-hearted show.

Flashbacks of Eleven being kept captive by a man she calls "Papa", she is used for experiments, brainwashed and locked in windowless rooms by herself, this may be sad or disturbing to some viewers.

The main character, El, is severely bullied in season 4. Not so frightening, but can be distressing and upsetting to some. Especially, the skating scene in season 4 episode 2.

Season 4 definitely has a darker tone and is a lot more horror focused than the first 3 seasons. Both the monster and it's backstory are quite unsettling.

The episodes of season 4 contain a various amounts of triggers, mentioning suicide for example. The first death catches the viewer off guard and it can be shocking. The creatures' appearances are very detailed and scary, nausea can also be caused. The murders are very detailedly shown, people's body are severely injured and snatched which can remind the viewers of exorcism. Nightmares can be caused or flashbacks due to the possibility of getting traumatized by watching.

In season 3 there is a monster made out of guts and gore which is less frightening but more disturbing and weird.

Season 4 is not very gory but people get killed in very disorienting ways

Bits of jumpscares by demogorgons

Billy is highly abusive to max in season 2. Especially Ep2 Ep4 and Ep5

Severe injures including extreme bruises, blood, gore, corpses, flesh and organs.

Season 1 centers on a boy who has been kidnapped by a mysterious creature and includes many scenes of high-tension, scary scene involved a nightmare-like landscape called the "upside down" and there are occasional jump-scares. The creatures can be frightening to younger audiences.
