Suicide or self-harm is raised — for example, Marge Simpson says, "Oh my God, he'll kill himself! (CHOKING UP) He'll never hear me say "I told you so!"". Violence is mild but includes Bart Simpson says, "Yeah, hasn't been the same since they murdered the Mayor's Dad here". Sexual content is mild but includes Helen Lovejoy says, "(PATRONIZING) Sure you do -- you provide food and sexual release for your handy husband!". Characters drink or talk about alcohol and drugs — Homer Simpson says, "And now to get stinking drunk!".
