Riverdale

A dead body is shown at length, with bloated and rotten flesh from drowning.

As in the comic series, much of the show's plot is derived from a love triangle and romantic complications. Both male and female characters are shown undressed: female characters in bras, males shirtless. Archie in particular is frequently objectified and his hair color referred to; he's called things like a "ginger bull" and a "ginger stallion." An illicit couple (a 15-year-old student and an adult teacher) is shown having sex in a car, both shirtless (no private parts are visible). Archie is asked if he "tapped some cougar ass"; one teen asks another if he killed someone and "did things to the body" afterward. Two main teen characters have sex in a shower; no nudity.

"Hell," "ass," "bitch." Girls call each other things like "fat" and "bitch."

Betty takes prescription Adderall; the show implies she doesn't need it.

Parents need to know that Riverdale is a drama about a group of teens that's based on the classic Archie comics. The series has a much darker tone than the comics, with events revolving around the murder of a local teen boy, an illicit affair between a 15-year-old student and an adult teacher, and competitive friendships. A dead body with a distorted face is shown at length after a drowning, and various characters have secrets relating to the murder. Male and female characters are shown shirtless: females in bras, males nude from the waist up. Archie is frequently objectified and called things like "ginger stallion." A teen is shown having sex in the back of a car with a teacher, both shirtless and kissing (no private parts shown). Expect vulgar expressions for sex, but actual cursing is infrequent (and includes "ass" and "hell"). Characters call each other "bitch" more than once.
