Why We Rated This iffy for Ages 15–18

What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    Divorce and infidelity are prominent themes in the show. Many cast members are invovled in dysfunctional relationships. Money, fashion, style, and looks are emphasized over other concerns.
  • Role models:

    The cast exhibits narcissistic, self-indulgent. and self-absorbed behavior. Their primary cares seem to be their looks, wealth, relationship status, and reputation in the Miami social circuit.
  • Violence:

    Some catty arguments between cast members (usually occur after they've been drinking).
  • Sex:

    Lots of strong sexual innuendo, including clear references to promiscuity and various sexual positions and sex acts, as well as subtler references to sexually transmitted diseases. Men and women are shown undressing and in their underwear; women are often seen in thongs and other skimpy outfits. The camera often focuses closely on women’s cleavage and bare legs and thighs. Sexuality (including homosexuality and bisexuality) is frequently discussed. One cast member is a former porn star.
  • Language:

    Words like "bitch," "hell," "bang," and "tits" are audible; stronger curse words like "s--t" and "f--k" are bleeped.
  • Consumerism:

    Frequent references to fashion labels like Gucci and Prada. Logos for brands like Puma, BMW, Porsche, Audi are frequently visible, as are products like Cheetos.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Cigarette smoking is clearly visible. Plenty of drinking (champagne, wine, mixed drinks); some cast members admit to losing control after drinking too much.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Miami Social

Parents need to know that this reality series about seven young professionals involved in the Miami social scene features lots of narcissistic and superficial conversations about looks, fashion, and being part of the "it" crowd. Characters smoke and drink frequently; the latter often leads to catty arguing. Expect plenty of strong language (words like "bitch" and "bang" are audible, while those like "s--t" and "f--k" are bleeped) and sexual innuendo, including discussion about sexuality and references to various sexual acts.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about the real-life consequences of the kind of behavior that's frequently depicted on reality shows -- like drinking and casual sex. Do you think some reality show stars act so outrageously just because the cameras are there? Or are they really just being themselves?
  • Famlies can also discuss what it would be like to live and work in an environment like the one on the show. Do you think "scenes" like this are as posh and glamorous as the media sometimes suggest?
