Children of a Lesser Clod

Strip-club and porn references, affairs and cheating, fat-shaming in animation.

Parents need to know that The Simpsons S12 E20, "Children of a Lesser Clod", is a animation episode. Scores low: the strongest thing we found is porn / strippers / sex work (explicit, in dialogue). Violence is mild but includes Lisa Simpson says, "So many times we've seen our father go under the knife". Sexual content is mild but includes Nelson Muntz: Boobs!; Dr. Julius Hibbert says, "Oh, you're also responsible for this hefty hospital bill. You shouldn't have ordered all…". Some mild language appears in the dialogue. This episode includes fat-shaming — for example, Chief Wiggum says, "All right, fatty, out of the pipe!". Characters drink or talk about alcohol and drugs — Bart Simpson says, "This is the real Homer Simpson -- a beer-drinking meanie!".
