Is The Family Man season 1 OK for kids?
Parents should know
A middle-class government agent secretly fights a terrorist plot while his marriage frays. Action includes staged shootouts and a lynching; the show also depicts anti-Muslim scapegoating and communal tension. One joking reference to infidelity; a drinking scene.
