Is Pill season 1 OK for kids?
Parents should know
An eight-episode thriller about whistleblowers exposing a corrupt pharmaceutical giant. Critics describe corporate menace, threats and bribery rather than graphic violence; one reviewer says there's no swearing, vulgarity or bloodshed. Strong themes of standing up to power.
