There are points in the series of mild exposure to full-on nudity; Joey Jeremiah moons everyone in the school cafeteria and walks through wearing nothing but a hat over his crotch, Stephanie Kaye wears revealing clothing such as tube tops and miniskirts, Mr. Raditch runs from his home in nothing but a bathrobe and boxers.

A boy walks in on his father and girlfriend having sex. They are in bed together; the scene is quite brief, but partial skin is seen (no genitalia or buttocks, covered with sheets). The boy, horrified, leaves.

Frequent physical violence, including a girl being slapped by her drunk mother, kids getting into fistfights, a boy being lifted by the collar of his shirt, and a girl kneeing her drunk boyfriend in the crotch, among other things.

A girl punches a boy in the nose, blood is seen.

Some scenes of attempted rape/sexual abuse: a boy is physically shoved from a car after refusing sex with a grown man; a teenage girl has reoccurring nightmares featuring herself as a child being molested in bed by her father; a girl meets a popular romance actor who initiates sex with her in his car (she pushes him away), and a drunk boy attempts to kiss and fondle his unwilling girlfriend, who knees him in the crotch.

A charecter attempts suicide and the body (we only see his boot) is is lying on the floor surrounded by a pool of blood.

Some uses of "hell", "damn/goddamn".

Two uses of "n*gger" (directed at an African-Canadian student).

There may be some language, but nothing severe One episode includes two uses of "fucking" but that's pretty much the only severe word

Drugs, smoking and alcohol usage are frequently depicted and used as talking points and plotlines throughout the series.

A character smokes cigarettes in her bedroom, hiding it from her disapproving family by doing it out the window. She is later caught smoking with a gang of boys at school.

A girl steals alcohol from her brother and brings it to a party.

A group of girls get extremely drunk after discovering their parents' liquor cabinet; they stumble down the street singing their school's anthem off-key, they dance drunkenly at school, and one girl vomits.

Characters try marijuana, and the different effects is has on them are portrayed. A girl finds the marijuana stashed in a tampon machine at school; two rolled joints are shown on-screen.

A boy offers another boy LSD to try at a concert. The boy puts a strip of it on his tongue; this boy is later said by two RCMP officers to have jumped off a bridge during a bad acid trip.

Boys smoke, drink and gamble at an all-night party.

Adults drink wine at a restaurant.

Boys try smoking cigarettes in a bathroom stall.

Boys sit outside one night and drink beer (except for one, who argues that his parents were killed by a drunk driver). All three boys are discovered by the police and get in trouble for public intoxication.

A girl has an epileptic seizure; she is seen lying at a crooked angle on the ground and convulsing violently while moaning. In an attempt to make fun of her, another girl later claims that she was "foaming at the mouth, it was really gross". The character never at any point foams at the mouth.

A school catches fire. Nobody is seriously injured, but they stampede in a panic and later watch the school burn down from outside. One character panics that her boyfriend is missing (presumably trapped inside), but he is found unharmed later.
