I’d say that chucks dad is emotionally abusive and that the fact that he doesn’t really have an example of love leads to him assaulting Jenny

Through out the entire show there are several attempts of r*pe that are only stop by interference of either a third person or because the victim 'fights off' their attacker. In light of the time the show was written & aired and the way these cases are shown on screen people might consider them as sexual haressment or sexual assault but they are attempts of r*pe that without interference would have let to r*pe.

In season 2, a main character who’s a minor is “dating” a teacher. There are other instances throughout the show where minors have romantic relationships with adults. It’s unfortunately very normalized in this show.

before the show begins eric tries to take his life but fails, there are no flashbacks, and it is not discussed in detail (we know how he did it but its not described more than that). SEASON 2 EPISODE 14: a main character is about to take his own life by jumping off of a building but a friend stop him.

Just as a result of a car crash in 5x11. There’s also a man inside a bloody bathtub in 5x07, but it’s a staging.

One of the main characters (Chuck) is shot in 3x22, then in 4x1 there are flashbacks and mentions of the aftermath.
