What is And Just Like That Rated?
And Just Like That is rated TV-MA for mature content and suggestive material.
Language
There is quite a bit of language in the Sex in the City reboot like bit*h, a**, sh*t, f*ck, damn, and pu**y. There are also words of Deity used.
Mature Content
An important character dies and the grief can be intense for younger viewers (and older ones, too!)
Characters drink alcohol and smoke cigars and marijuana.
There is obviously sex talk, perhaps not quite as raunchy as Sex in the City, but still plenty of talk about sex and masturbation.
Episode 8 gets full on male frontal nudity. Characters have sex and female breasts are shown.
Is And Just Like That Appropriate for Kids Under 16?
Although And Just Like That A New Chapter After Sex in The City is not as raunchy (at the beginning) as the original Sex and the City series, it’s still not really appropriate for teens. If you’ve watched the original Sex in the City with your teens, then this one probably won’t be shocking or any worse. However, these ladies are now in their 50s, so I don’t know how much appeal it will have with the younger crowds.
As the series goes on, there is more nudity.
Yes, there are shocking deaths, and new characters introduced in the pursuit of diversity, but Carrie, Charlotte, and Miranda are back. There are bigger issues to deal with like deaths of loved ones, alcoholism, and marital issues.
It’s not quite as bad as everyone’s saying, but hopefully these ladies find their groove soon.
