Mild — okay from about 9+
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air S1 E19, “It Had to Be You”, scores 1/5 for violence, 2/5 for sex and 1/5 for language, for an overall kid-rating of 2/5 — Mild — okay from about 9+. Jazz asks Will the favor of taking his sister Janet out on a date after she moves into town. Will does so reluctantly, until Jazz introduces the two. Will takes Janet on a date, but learns that she's extremely bossy and has her whole life planned out for the pair already. Janet tells Will what to do, where to go and how to look, and criticizes Will for every little thing. Jazz recommends that if Will doesn't like her he should introduce her to someone else. He does so to Carlton at a club. When Janet displays her rudeness, Carlton sternly tells her he expects his dates to be courteous and respectful to others, which surprisingly causes her and Carlton to become a nice couple.
