I love this show
The language is very strong in this show and some time the sceans of death can be pretty graphic. This show is for 13 and older.

More intense than CSM's review claims, but still a great show
Be aware that CSM's summary of the profanity used in the show ONLY applies to the censored reruns on SciFi. The original Showtime airings and the DVDs contain a near-constant stream of strong profanity. Expect to hear the f-bomb and many of its derivatives in every episode. The characters are often selfish and make poor decisions. A lot of Burtonesque dark slapstick, too. One character was (and probably still is) a drug addict. That said, this is a great show with very well-written characters. It hits a perfect balance between comedy and drama and is worth viewing for any TV enthusiast.

Dead Like Me
When I looked up the show Dead Like Me on this site and saw it was rated only TV-PG, I was thrilled and went to my local Hollywood Video to rent it and see what it was like. Tv-PG's don't have 4 F-Words!!! (And that's BEFORE I turned it off, there could have been more.) The episode I watched was the Pilot. All it did was totally turn me off to this show and I was wondering how in the world it got rated as if it were a kid's movie! Did the website make a mistake or have current episodes tuned down to a TV-PG or what??

One of the greatest shows on TV
I decided to watch this while there was a marathon on SciFi channel and nothing was on. Within five minutes I was hooked. For seventeen hours. Yes, I, with the attention span of a squirrel, watched the same show for 17 straight hours. It's just that good. The show does sound very morbid, but most of it is kept quite lighthearted considering the subject they are handling is death. It's interesting to watch George discover things, and question them. Many of the deaths are violent, but are not shown. The swearing was edited on Scifi channel, but on the DVD it's at a PG-13 level. Some episodes have rather funny sexual references. All in all, it's a great show for kids 13+ and adults too.
