Sex & Nudity

1/5

The show features light-hearted romantic tension between the married parents and occasional crushes involving the teenage children. Any romantic displays are limited to brief, gentle gestures suitable for a younger audience.

Violence & Gore

The action is strictly slapstick and comedic, involving amateur spy gadgets and playful training sessions. There is no realistic injury or malice, focusing entirely on a fun, cartoonish tone.

Profanity

Language is kept very clean, occasionally featuring very mild, non-offensive exclamations such as "cr*p" or "s*cks" in casual, humorous contexts to emphasize a character's frustration.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
