00:00:00.500 --> 00:00:06.376
Does Young Royals offer
a realistic view of teen life?

00:00:09.885 --> 00:00:12.734
Yeah, the truth is there, zits and all.

00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:17.900
In this Swedish-language drama,
a 15-year-old prince tries to find his way

00:00:17.900 --> 00:00:21.543
at an elite boarding school
where tradition and hierarchy rule.

00:00:25.450 --> 00:00:29.539
Not surprisingly, there's plenty of
iffy behavior on display here.

00:00:29.539 --> 00:00:33.584
Teens guzzle liquor, get drunk,
vomit, and pop prescription pills.

00:00:35.800 --> 00:00:39.752
There's also lots of crude language,
including F-bombs and S-words.

00:00:41.100 --> 00:00:44.230
The racy stuff is tamer than in
comparable American shows,

00:00:44.230 --> 00:00:47.950
but expect scenes of kissing and masturbation.

00:00:47.950 --> 00:00:50.770
As for pluses, the series
boasts a diverse cast and

00:00:50.770 --> 00:00:54.086
raises thought-provoking
questions about class and status.

00:00:57.856 --> 00:01:02.250
Common Sense says Young Royals
is OK for teens 14 and up.
