What parents need to know
Parents need to know that this COPS-esque reality series about police officers who patrol various American college campuses frequently shows students (many underage) drinking, smoking, and partying. Some female students are also shown flaunting their cleavage and/or engaging in sexually provocative behavior (though there's no nudity). Although the show isn’t too violent, officers do make arrests and often have to diffuse tense situations. Drug use, drunk driving, and other inappropriate behavior are also discussed. If your teens do end up watching, be sure to join them so you can talk about the featured students' choices and challenges.
Positive role models:
Students are shown making poor choices, mouthing off at police officers, and engaging in other disrespectful behavior.
Violence:
Police officers are frequently shown making arrests; some suspects don't cooperate and resist/get belligerent. Campus police often monitor public protests on campuses to diffuse potentially violent confrontations.
Sex:
Female students often wear tight/fairly revealing clothes (though no nudity is shown).
Language:
Frequent uses of curse words like “a--hole," “s--t,” and “f--k” are bleeped.
Consumerism:
Not applicable.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking:
Police officers frequntly break up beer bashes and make marijuana busts. Students (particularly the female ones) are seen engaging in lots of drunken behavior and at times pass out. Underage drinking is discussed/visible. Students are also sometimes shown smoking cigarettes.
