Snatch

Many characters view working hard and saving as ridiculous -- in one telling scene, a father tells his son the best way to get what you want is to take it and it's fine as long as you don't get caught. However, the consequences of criminal acts are shown, with many characters serving jail terms due to their crimes. The show also deals in iffy messages about masculinity: "You're a Hill and Hills don't cry," a young boy is told. 

Many scenes take place at boxing matches with men pummeling each other; machine guns and hand guns are pointed and fired; characters are shot and killed with sprays of blood; during chase scenes bystanders are knocked down and hurt; scenes of mayhem in which men chase each other through busy streets trying to shoot each other; a bookie owed money threatens to take a character's finger; a man hits someone (offscreen) with a bat repeatedly as they scream in agony; a dead body is casually thrown into a garbage truck. The violence is not glamorized, exactly, since the characters are depicted as degenerates and many serve jail times. But this show clearly sympathizes with those who commit crimes as a means of getting ahead in life. 

Cursing and strong language: f--k, f--king, piss, s--t, bastard, bulls--t,  ass, English-style cursing: s--te, bollocks. An unappealing character calls a man a "half-pikey" (i.e. partly of Romani/Irish Traveller extraction; an ethnic slur).
