Nudity, drinking, sex talk in live-action sitcom.

Parents need to know that The Big Bang Theory S10 E15, "The Locomotion Reverberation", is a live-action sitcom episode. 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 Howard says, "Well, my wife is four-foot-ten and sexually satisfied, so clearly I know my way around…"; Amy says, "Well, the bra under here ain’t beige". Characters drink or talk about alcohol and drugs — Bernadette says, "I’m not sad. I just wanted to get drunk and not wear sweatpants".
