ReportSynopsis
Incensed by the tabloid culture which celebrates it, the L.A. Slasher publicly abducts a series of reality TV stars, while the media and general public in turn begin to question if society is better off without them. A biting, social satire about reality TV and the glorification of people who are famous for simply being famous, "L.A. Slasher" explores why it has become acceptable and even admirable for people to become influential and wealthy based on no merit or talent - purely through notoriety achieved through shameful behavior.

There's a lot of smoking. Justin is S2 does a lot of cocaine. The big one that will be a trigger, though, is in S1 Marjorie is given a needle with heroin and injects it. She describes how good it feels, and then she realizes it's a higher dose/messed with and dies. If you want to skip it, it's after she promises the police chief she'll say anything he wants her to when they're in the hotel room.

There’s no deaths shown in this episode, but Dawn shares a nasty story about killing a bird. The details are graphic enough that, while I am not checking YES, the story may be triggering to bird lovers, so you should consider hitting the mute button after Dawn says, “I hate birds.” Happens about 25-30 minutes into the episode.

It’s possibly Ephebophilia that is shown, not Pedophilia, since the girl victim is 15, but there isn’t a category on this site. I would also guess, based on the (often incorrect) overuse of the word Pedophile, a majority of people don’t actually know the difference between the words. So, I checked YES for this one as a possible trigger, since being sexually assaulted under 18 is a trigger for lots of people, no matter the classification. There also isn’t an official diagnosis given in the series, so the abuser may not even be any of the classifications, but that is a much deeper conversation than needs to be had on this site.

In season 1 hands are chopped off and a man has a dominatrix crucify him by impaling nails through his hands.
In season 3 a man's hands and arms are burnt to a crisp.
In season 4 a woman's finger is bitten off and a man's arms are torn off (if that counts).
in season 5 a woman is basically Frankensteined, which includes her arms, and an arm is shown falling off.

If this is your trigger, you definitely need to skip the opening scene. The aftermath of someone’s remains is shown right in the first few minutes of the episode. Having already been eaten alive by multiple creatures (rats, insects, etc), the dog starts chewing on some of the corpse parts, which is shown up close for a few seconds.

just started watching, will add timestamps as i watch. SEASON 1: foam at the mouth starts 44 minutes into episode 2, lasts a few minutes, no actual v* but very intense and was still triggering to me. v* is 30 mins into episode 4, it only lasts a couple seconds but it's pretty sudden, mild visual but no audio. about a minute into episode 6, they show the v* scene again, this time with audio, the visuals are slightly worse and the v*ing lasts longer than it did in episode 4. SEASON 2: episode 4 opens with v*, its straight away, there's close-up visual and audio, this scene was very triggering to me. theres another v* scene 41 minutes into episode 4, quite sudden with some audio and graphic visuals. episode 7, 22 minutes in, graphic audio and some visuals. SEASON 3: 40 minutes into episode 7, mild audio and no visuals. 21 minutes into episode 8, Saadia grabs a bin and clutches her stomach as if she's going to v* but nothing happens

In season 2, there's a woman, Judith, who self-harms. She uses a razor to cut into her thigh. You don't really see the self-harming itself, just the scars; in the scene, she is interrupted right before she's going to self-harm.

In S1, it's revealed that when Justin bought the land his house is on, he evicted a family and they were forced to squat in an abandoned building. They use a propane heater to keep warm, and this kills them. It's both talked about and their bodies are briefly shown. In S3, there's a man in ragged clothes shown a few times who's referred to as being homeless. He gets chased out of the coffee shop several times by the owner for stealing food.
