Drinking, nudity, mild language in live-action sitcom.

The series is known for more innuendo than the science jokes suggest, but rarely explicit. Scores low: the strongest thing we found is nudity & bodies (joke or passing mention, in dialogue). Sexual content is mild but includes Leonard says, "Okay, not to be pedantic, but the last I checked went out was in fact the past tense of…". Some mild language appears in the dialogue. Characters drink or talk about alcohol and drugs — Sheldon says, "All this fighting, I might as well be back with my parents! Damn it, George, I told you…".
