What Parents Need to Know
About South of Nowhere
Parents need to know that this edgy teen drama series openly discusses a range of complex topics, including sex, sexual orientation, adoption, loss of virginity, dating, and cyberbullying. Characters use mature language, and both dialogue and characters are sexually charged.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the show's reality level. Do its scenarios and characters reflect real teens' everyday life? What ideas about style, sex, dating, and friendship do teens get from this program? Have any kids at their school come out? If so, how are they accepted and treated? Another interesting topic might be adoption. How do you think Clay feels? What would it be like to be a minority in your own family?

Great Show, Isn't Afraid to Deal With The Issues
This is a great show, but one thing that Common Sense forgot to mention was that one character is killed by a drive by shooting at a school prom, and others were seriously injured, which is iffy for voilence.

i love south of nowhere!
I think this show South Of Nowhere is an awesome show. im only 15 years old and im addictied to it. This show is realistic and deals with the issues at hand, and how teenagers usually deal with their problems and how to learn from their mistakes. I think all the actors are great and know how to play their characters. It deals with sexual orientation which a lot of people my age are dealing with right now. I for one, are not into labels but everyone needs help and south of nowhere can really help you discover that.
