Skip for under 14
Rick and Morty S1 E2, “2. Lawnmower Dog”, scores 3/5 for violence, 2/5 for sex and 4/5 for language, for an overall kid-rating of 4/5 — Skip for under 14. Morty's small, white dog Snuffles gets on the nerves of the family, so Rick quickly builds a knowledge enhancing helmet for the dog. In the meantime, Rick and Morty decide to incept the dreams of Morty's math teacher, Mr. Goldenfold in order to convince him to give Morty A's in math. While the duo are sent on an epic dream world journey, Snuffles slowly gains sentience, which leads to a slew of even more problems.
