What Parents Need to Know

About Twins

Parents need to know that the show is chock-full of sexual innuendos and mature content. The main characters own and operate a lingerie company, and episodes have included off-camera sex in the office, scantily clad women, random hook-ups, adultery, and sexually suggestive dialogue. Two main characters are blatant stereotypes of beauty and brains.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about the stereotypes the show perpetuates. Why are blondes considered pretty and dumb, while brunettes are portrayed as smart but unattractive? Do your kids know any twins that are complete oppposites? What do you think being a twin would be like?
