This episode sets up the Halo story background and shows the awesome fighting power of the Spartans.Įpisode 2 has a scene with a woman standing taking off all her clothes, filmed at a distance. You’ll see children getting slaughtered, men getting limbs torn apart, bodies basically exploding into bits of blood and muscle. You’ll need to fast forward or pre-screen to watch this with kids.Įpisode 1 of the series is over the top graphically gory and violent with lots of swearing. Basically, no it’s not appropriate at all. I’ll just give people a heads-up on questionable content from 4-5th grader viewing perspective. Ok, so this truly earns the TV-MA rating. The handful of fun action scenes do not make up for the majority of the show being poorly written dialogue between unlikable characters. Character dynamics are bland, and the show's double narrative tries to weave two largely unrelated plot lines together with disastrous results, making both stories feel disconnected and pointless. Quality: The writing is inconstant and often contradicts information which was previously established. In episode references to other Paramount properties like Spongebob and StarTrek. Messages: The show tries to advocate for "being human" and trusting your emotions but as previously mentioned, it also promotes anarchy and drug abuse.Ĭonsumerism: It's based on a very large videogame franchise with a lot of merchandise. John has a basic story about discovering what it means to be human, but is also prone to violent if not sadistic outbursts. All of these traits are undesirable, but presented as positive, as if the writers don't see the issues with them. Kwan is often foolish, and puts others in danger because of her own failure to separate bravery from a lack of caution. Soren is a pirate who insists anarchy is good. Role Models: Kwan, John, and Soren are supposed to be heroic figures, but are often foolish, and the writers seem to just find questionable behavioral traits heroic. Language: the word "S**t" is about as far as it gets. Drug use is always portrayed as a positive. The second episode shows characters living in a "perfect society" casually taking some kind of inhalant. Kwan is introduced as getting high with her friends off of some opium-like root in the first episode, which is framed as being endearing and fun. Many scenes of characters being seen naked from behind.ĭrinking/Drugs: Fictional drugs are shown being enjoyed by characters with no negative side-effects. Sex: A man and a woman have sex although no genitals are shown. A scene early-on in the series shows many political dissidents being executed via- gunshot to the head. Civilians are killed, including children. Humans and aliens lose limbs and their lives during gun battles. Violence: Much more intense violence than the games the series is named after. As its own product the show is incompetently written, and at times celebrates antisocial or dangerous behavior.
