    Not an issue.
  • Language:

    Strong language, with many bleeped words (the f-word in particular).

What Parents Need to Know

About Fast Inc.

Parents need to know that this MTV reality series includes some strong language (particularly, frequent use of "f--k," which is bleeped out but nonetheless recognizable). Also, the owner of Fast Inc. proposes lying to a client to secure a car, and the show glamorizes the notion that celebrities and millionaires can get anything they want just because they have money.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about what it takes to run a successful business, and whether the people in this show are going about it the right way. What are some of the positive aspects of the way Christian runs the business? Does he do anything that seems dishonest, and if so, what? What do you think of Tater's general attitude about the hard work involved in finding cars? What's good about his attitude, and what's negative? Do you think that making promises to celebrities and millionaires -- even if you're not sure you can fulfill the promise -- is a good way to run a business? Could it have a negative impact in the long run?
