She lets a lot of the situations that come up in her work affect her emotionally and although that sometimes can compromise the missions, it gives her a very human element and shows its ok to be emotional about things that are close to you. *Hoffs (Holly Robinson)- great character who is VERY passionate about her work. Although he can sometimes be a bit rough with the criminals, he ultimately shows to be a compassionate person with a good heart. He shows a lot of responsibility, cares a lot about his job and is sometimes forced to make tough moral decisions. *Hanson (Johnny Depp) -for the first few seasons is usually the main character in the show. Teenagers are seen dealing and doing drugs, but are always arrested by the main characters, showing that crime and drugs don't pay.Īll of the main characters are great role model's for kids. There are loads of drug references, with drugs being the center of many of the episodes plot lines.

Many are carried out with cheesy fight noises and usually result in very little (if any) blood. The show is not gory, or extremely bloody, but there are a lot of fist fights, talk of crimes, violent arrests, chase scenes and even murder. (being the main crime of the storyline at times) As the seasons progress there is more kissing, sexual tension between two of the main characters, and much more talk of rape and prostitution. As far as sex and nudity, season 1 is pretty clean with only some mild kissing. The use of this language however is not frequent at all and usually used by criminals.

From Season 2 up harsher language is introduced and not dubbed such as "b*tch" "sl*t" "ass" "fag" and "n*gger". In season 1, Depp's character uses the word "ass" on a few occasions, but is dubbed over with the word "tail" though his mouth clearly says otherwise. As a parent of any child under the age of 11, I would screen and pick out the "cleaner" episodes as some of them deal with very heavy topics like rape and prostitution. Aside from the acting which is fantastic from the leads, the show has good moral, exciting story lines and not too much iffy content.

Any fan of Depp and his work will NOT want to pass up this show, as he is in practically every episode in seasons 1-3 (and periodically in season 4) and does a fantastic job. Being a slightly dated show, kids today may not really be interested in watching it, HOWEVER it does mark the start of Johnny Depp's acting career.
