The BBC Television Shakespeare (1978)

Almost every episode would be G-rated, with the possible exceptions of Hamlet (1980) and Titus Andronicus (1985), which have some mild adult content.

Most have no violence at all. A few of the tragedies have some very mild violence depicted, consistent with Shakespeare's actual play. Never graphic or overly bloody.

None whatsoever. Every episode follows Shakespeare's play exactly.

No drugs or smoking at any point.

A few episodes feature immoral characters (i.e., Falstaff) who are shown drinking excessively in taverns. However, this behavior is never condoned.
