What Parents Need to Know
About The Riches
Parents need to know that the main characters (including the children) in this darkly comic cable drama are professional con artists and thieves. The show's premise relies on the fact that they deceive those around them. Husband and wife argue frequently, sometimes in front of their kids, and conflicts often include throwing objects. One character recently left prison and fights drug addiction. Viewers see her holding a needle to her arm, about to inject herself with drugs; she also drinks cough syrup and takes prescription drugs frequently. The oldest teenage boy smokes cigarettes and is a master computer hacker, while the youngest son prefers to wear girls' clothing (this is handled sensitively). Language is explicit, and occasional sex scenes are realistic, with a little bit of nudity.

The sex, especially, is a big issue...
How much sex does an FX program have to have these days? How much can they show and still get away with? This is one of the show's flaws, and if children are watching, talk to them about the themes. So-so, but it would be great if I didn't have to see the sexual content.
