Separation of Powers
Notes About the Violence
There are relatively few episodes with scenes, therefore, we tended to include a scene, even if it was very mild.
General Warning
There are maybe 10 or so episodes with graphic violence or images, so be sure to check the scenes. It is easy to get lulled by the stream of perfectly clean episodes.
