Does Outer Banks deliver one too many scenes
of teens gone wild?
"That's my crew."
"And our mission this summer is to have a good time all the time."
Well, it certainly pushes the envelope a bit.
Set on a sun-kissed island of haves and have-nots,
this edgy teenage drama
follows four friends caught up in the hunt
for a long-lost treasure.
"You kids don't think you're the only ones after the royal merchant, do you?"
While the action here comes across as rebellious
fun, be ready for lots of lawless behavior
by minors.
"You're way over your head."
We're talking vandalism, underage drinking,
pot smoking, and other drug use.
Everything goes as far as language is concerned,
too, meaning frequent F-bombs, S-words, and more.
"Keep going down this road, you're gonna end up just like your Dad."
As for racy stuff, expect passionate kissing,
shirtless boys, and girls in cleavage-revealing outfits.
That said, the show also tackles some intriguing
themes, like socioeconomic prejudice.
Common Sense says Outer Banks is OK for teens
15 and up.
