Game of Thrones (2011)

What earned the score

• Graphic Same-Sex Encounter

  Loras Tyrell is shown in a graphic, nudity-filled sexual encounter with a male lover, making same-sex sexuality explicit on screen.

• Homosexuality as Passing Content

  The episode includes verbal references to homosexuality alongside references to sex acts and genitalia, treating same-sex sexuality as a passing content detail rather than a story driver.

• Faith Dismissed as Superstition

  A priestess calls Westeros’ predominant faith “superstitious nonsense,” giving the episode an explicitly dismissive take on religious belief.

• Women Take the Throne and Blade

  Cersei and Daenerys contend for the Iron Throne, while Arya becomes an assassin; women occupy the series’ positions of political power and lethal agency, reversing traditional gender roles.

Details

Seven noble families fight for control of the mythical land of Westeros. Friction between the houses leads to full-scale war. All while a very ancient evil awakens in the farthest north. Amidst the war, a neglected military order of misfits, the Night's Watch, is all that stands between the realms of men and icy horrors beyond.

  One episode features a scene of a pregnant woman getting killed.

  A person skins a dead body's face. We see the skin pulling off from the face. Very gruesome.

  A character is captured and gets tortured by a character a couple of times, there is an extremely gruesome and violent scene of the torturer playing with the victims little finger's nail with a knife and then ripping it of slowly with his on hands. One of the most, if not, the most extreme scene in the show.

  Season 3 is quite possible the most brutal one. It has one of the most gruesomely violent sequences in the history of television, complete with scenes that are extremely brutal and over-the-top.

• Drugs Moderate

  "Nightshade" is used as a sleeping drug and agent of euthanasia.

  Wine, ale and beer drinking; people are shown drunk.

  Some of the characters are alcoholics who drink wine and beer like water. Water is rarely drunk. Worth to mention that this is quite normal, considering the middle age setting.

  "Milk of the Poppy" is used as a painkiller.

• Frightening Scenes Severe

  Intense trigger/content of extreme Sexual Violence & Sexual Exploitation of females including Sexual Victimization of depicted female minors.

  Intensely akin to NC-17 for pervasive & graphic full female nudity, soft porn, rape, incest, orgies, brutal violence, gore, grisly imagery, strong language and malicious acts.
