I love the show and I don't think the it's incredibly inappropriate for 12 years and older. The girls cuss and some of the show is questionable but it's entertainment, it doesn't need to be perfect. I don't think it's gross or "icky" that the girls are in playboy or are dating and 80 year old but I am sure some strict parents wont even let their teens watch it. Don't forget, by the way, that playboy has a large audience. It's not just naked women. Its a business they work for playboy. In the former seasons Holly worked and helped pick the girls and pictures and in this season Crystal works in the scrapbook room. Anyway what I'm saying is I thing the show is for 12 and older.

What Parents Need to Know
About The Girls Next Door
Parents need to know that this reality series openly celebrates sexual fantasy and sexual pleasure as positive things, which may be considered inappropriate by some viewers. That said, no explicit sexual behavior is seen on camera, and most nudity is blurred (although there are moments of partial nudity when women are in various stages of undress or sporting very revealing clothing). The show's discussions of nudity and sexual fantasy aren't appropriate for children, and parents may want to exercise caution even for older teens.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the different attitudes our society has about sex and sexual activity. Why are some people very open about sex while others aren't? When do nudity and sexual conduct become pornographic? Families can also discuss how women appear as sexual objects in the media and how this impacts how we look at and treat women in our society.

I Love This!!!
I love this show. It's defenitely NOT for kids under the age of 17! However, it's such a guilty pleasure and the girls are so much fun to watch. It's on late enough that most kids will already be in bed by the time it comes on. While the show has no real point (i.e. the girls don't really "do" anything) it's almost impossible not to enjoy this. It's not shameful to pose for Playboy, and these girls are defenitly not idiots. It's merely just an entertaining half hour of television.
- I rate this title iffy for age 15 and give it
Stupid to me!
Im 10 and it's gross to a ten year old!but a 15 year old male or female would be okay watching it.
