Seed

Rarely there's some violent content in a scene, as when a woman hits a man with her car and he suffers a head wound that bleeds profusely.

Physical encounters are limited to kissing (both opposite-sex and same-sex), but the concept of sperm donation opens the door for lots of jokes and crassness about sex and reproduction. The show opens with an animated sequence showing sperm trying to force their way into an egg, Harry often refers to the donation process in terms of selling his "stuff," and Billy rejoices in the fact that he's not a "bastard" anymore. Innuendo is popular for laughs, as in comments like, "You blew me off, and not in the good way," and "My womb only accepts incoming." Teen sex is discussed in light terms; in one case, Anastasia says that she's considering sleeping with her boyfriend to keep his attention. Allusions to oral sex, and frequent mention of one-night stands.

"Dammit" and "d--k" (as an insult). "F--k" is edited.

Adults drink beer and wine onscreen, especially in scenes that take place at the bar where Harry works. A teen party shows underage characters with mixed drinks in their hands.

Parents need to know that Seed cultivates laughs by making light of what happens when sperm donors are confronted by kids they didn't know they had. Many jokes are made at the expense of the insemination process (a guy talks about handing over his "stuff," a boy talks about not being a "bastard" anymore, etc.) and other sexual topics, including allusions to oral favors and teen sexuality. Character stereotypes are prominent in this show, from an underachieving bachelor to lesbian and wealthy professional couples, both of whom conceived through artificial insemination. Viewers will also hear some strong language, from "dammit" and "d--k" to "f--k," which is edited. On the other hand, the show does make a strong effort to send some positive messages about nontraditional family ties in particular, and an unlikely role model shows some real promise when he steps up to the plate for kids he never intended to have.
