Edgy docuseries offers MTV-style late-night entertainment.
parents & educators say
What parents need to know
Parents need to know that this late-night show -- which features documentary-style interviews and recorded performances of musicians, actors and comedians -- is less comedy-oriented than other talk shows. But it's still on the edgy side: Conversations sometimes contain strong sexual innuendo and references to violence; words like “piss," “hell,” and “ass” are audible, while stronger curse words are bleeped. Guests use the show as a promotional vehicle for their music, tours, and merchandise; music clubs and other venues from around the country are also featured. Note: Most teens who watch late-night shows like this check them out
on a "time-shift" basis via DVR or online clips, rather than at the
original 11:30 p.m.-or-later air time -- which is better for their
sleep habits!
Positive role models:
Performers talk a little about how they built their careers; their success could help encourage kids to pursue artistic interests.
Violence:
Some performers discuss living in violent neighborhoods or using their music, art, etc. to address how violence has touched their lives.
Sex:
Some guests wear revealing outfits. Some comedians tell jokes with strong sexual innuendo.
Language:
Words like “piss," “hell," and “ass” are audible. Curse words like “s--t” are fully bleeped.
Consumerism:
Musicians, comedians, and other performers promote their latest music, tours, and merchandise. Labels like West Coast Choppers and D&C sneakers are featured.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking:
Alcohol and drugs are occasionally discussed.
