Merry Christmas, Drake & Josh

Drake and Josh often slap each other around during their typical sibling arguments, but it's all in good humor and never leads to injury. Other painful content is exaggerated for humor as well, including a fall from a building, a handful of head traumas, and a boy's victimization by a violent monkey, who scratches, hits, and urinates on him.

Ladies' man Drake exchanges passionate kisses with two different girls and in one scene is chased through a shopping mall by another would-be romantic interest. At one point the teens are roughed up by a group of thugs who steal their clothes, forcing them to walk home nude (though nothing's shown below the chest).

Megan often calls her brothers "boobs" when they make her angry.

Parents need to know that some young viewers who watch this made-for-TV holiday movie starring the cast of Nickelodeon's hit series Drake & Josh may need a reality check afterward. Older tweens will understand the fantasy nature of what they see, but littler kids may need a few reminders about responsible teen behavior. As in the sitcom, responsible Josh repeatedly falls victim to his impulsive stepbrother's antics, and while the situations are always spun for laughs, this time Josh lands in federal prison -- and both teens wind up in court. Felonies aside, even some of the guys' everyday actions are pretty iffy, including driving erratically, not wearing seatbelts, and lying to make their sister help them evade a parole officer. Predictably, none of this behavior results in any relatable, lasting consequences. But at least there's no swearing, drinking, or sex (other than a couple of kisses), either!
