What Parents Need to Know
About John Safran vs. God
Parents need to know that this confrontational reality/satire series tackles religion, unapologetically making fun of its extremes (Scientology, voodoo, etc.). The irreverent approach could offend some viewers. There's also strong language (including "f--k") and uncensored discussion of sexual issues -- like aroused male parts -- as well as drug use (in one episode the host takes peyote and films the entire experience, including his prolonged vomiting).
