Sex & Nudity
-
- A few occasions of lovemaking are portrayed onscreen, though not pushed beyond kissing with anything further occurring offscreen.
- One episode involves a main character reprogrammed to film a women's shower and screen it for an audience. No nudity is shown, though mild references to what occurs in the footage is mentioned.
- There are frequent moderate and sometimes strong sexual references throughout the seasons.
- Very rarely there is minor nudity, for example there is one episode where the main characters contract a virus which eats their clothes, and their bare buttocks are visible.
Violence & Gore
-
- Frequently there is minor violence, but there is never anything extreme, usually done for comic effect. Occasionally there is fighting, blows to the head with objects, etc.
- A feature of the series are weapons called "bazookoids", futuristic weapons similar to guns. However these are unrealistic and when characters are shot, it is done comically. Guns and knives are sometimes referenced more realistically. In the episode "Meltdown", World War II-style guns are used, but no human characters are killed.
- There is a lot of threat of extreme violence.
- No gore is ever shown visibly but sometimes it is implied. Minor amounts of blood are rarely shown, eg. in one episode a character's leg is broken and blood can be seen. In the same episode, a character hurts his arm and is seen stitching his own wound.
Profanity
-
- No uses of fuck.
- Many uses of "hell", "damn", "crap", "arse", etc.
- Very rare uses of "bitch" and "bastard". One use of "twat" in one episode, and one very brief use of "shit" in one episode.
- The fictional word "smeg" is used in place of extreme words to make the show more suitable for children, eg. "smeg head", "smegging hell", "for smeg's sake" etc.
- Rude finger gestures are occasional.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- Alcoholic drinks are comsumed regularly in the show, and its effects (vomiting, drunkenness, hangovers) are often shown.
- Cigarettes (and occasionally cigars) are used a couple of times in earlier episodes.
- Rarely there are mild references to more extreme drugs. In the episode "Stasis Leak", a theme is hallucinogenic mushrooms, and their effects are referenced in detail. They are never actually shown.
- Viagra is referenced in one episode but never actually shown.
- One episode includes "learning drugs", illegal drugs used to assist in learning used to cheat at exams. They are liquid and kept in cans, and one character is seen using them. This is not realistic.
- Medicines are often used medically.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- One episode involving an attacking mutant lifeform on the ship portrays the creature more seriously and may frighten younger viewers.
- One episode features a villain with time-altering capabilities who attempts to erase half of the crew from existence. He is portrayed with little comedic qualities, and is taken as a genuine threat.
- Rated PG-13 for some sci-fi violence, suggestive material and crude humour throughout.
- "Frightening" scenes are usually done in a comedic manner, with any terror being portrayed as humourous.
Spoilers
Sex & Nudity
- One episode has a main character tied to a post shirtless, who is subsequently smeared with grease by two scantily-clad women. The scene is played for comedy and doesn't go beyond that.
Violence & Gore
- One episode features a fascist policeman attempting to gun down a fleeing child, however he's stopped by the main characters. A main character is eventually forced to kill the cop, though no blood is shown and its revealed by the end to have been part of a hallucination.
- One episode has the main characters seemingly obliterated by their future selves in a cliffhanger, though its revealed come the next season they survived this encounter.
- One episode has a main character squash the head of a villain, though no blood is shown and its later revealed it was a part of a hallucination.
- One episode has two main characters strapped to gunneries getting prepped for unwanted surgery by a deranged robot. However, the robot is stopped by a hail of "bazookoid" gunfire and the two main characters saved, though a jar of kidneys is destroyed in the crossfire.
- One episode has a main character teleport to a new dimension before a wave of explosive radiation can reach him, though a villain is left behind and his face is shown engulfed in flame from it, though its done quickly and with no gore shown.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- One episode features the main characters fleeing from a beast composed of mutton vindaloo, and though the creature's design may prove disturbing, the scene itself is mainly played for comedy.
- One episode features a main character accidentally creating a mutated version of himself which proves hostile; the subsequent chase scene is portrayed relatively seriously and features intense music.
- In one scene it is revealed that a robot has fed the crew human meat however it is played for laughs
