A woman is pulled over for running a stop sign but she’s rushing her dog to the vet because he ate macadamia nuts. The dog seems fine and there’s no inclination that he will die. After she’s given her ticket, the officer mentions that the dog would have had to eat a massive quantity of nuts in order to suffer any ill effects.

There is an emotionally abusive relationship between a young woman and her young stepmom. The stepmom is very manipulative and nasty and keeps trying to force her stepdaughter to call her Mom even though they’re only 9 years apart. The young woman’s father isn’t shown but it’s implied that he will support/choose his new wife over his daughter if presented with the choice. Later a woman is fleeing her abusive husband who is the head of the drug cartel. Chen’s mother makes borderline emotionally abusive quips to her and is quite manipulative. A young woman explains that her ex-boyfriend posted revenge porn of her after she broke up with him.

S2E06, detective Harper sees a dog eating a corpse and the dog chases her. I don't know exactly what happens cause I didn't watch the entire thing, but it was a brief scene. If you want to skip this scene, stop watching when Harper answers a phone call. Later on the same episode, Harper is waiting for backup and uses pepper spray on the dog. It gets scared and runs away for a moment, and Harper closes the door, trapping the dog inside the building.

There is a gnarly animal head in the beginning when Nolan is looking through the trash. It’s only shown briefly and it’s mentioned to be a goat. I thought it was some kind of fish head at first and when I learned it was goat it was a little more upsetting.

You do see the wire cable he uses pull tight against the roof support, though. The camera pans back to his feet again a little later

A man jumps off of the roof of a 1 story building offscreen to escape police and is found with an injured and probably broken leg/ankle. I’m squeamish about broken bones and this didn’t bother me because his leg is just at a slightly off angle and it’s only shown briefly.

At the start of the first episode of the second season, we see a couple of police cars escorting an ambulance carrying Tim Bradford. After a few moments they show us inside of the ambulance, where they're giving Officer Bradford emergency care, and he then starts to seize as he goes into anaphylaxic shock. The camera cuts away after a second, though.

i don’t want to spoil it but one of the black actors decided they didn’t want to continue portraying a police officer in a world where the two are at odds so they had their character killed off and the others have to watch it in a security camera video. it’s not gory at all but definitely is really sad to see

No, but an officer is having a dream in the beginning of the episode where she keeps seeing a very creepy guy wearing a gas mask. Her training officer does not see the man but she does so she follows him into the woods. When she catches up to him she tells him to remove the mask and as he does, light starts beaming out of his face and she quickly wakes up to fellow officers taking pictures of her while she was napping on shift. This scene was very creepy and I was expecting a jumpscare but there wasn’t one. This strange guy in the mask isn’t a ghost per se but it was weird enough that I decided to put it here.

as a heads up i’m very sensitive to anything regarding illness so here is a run down on everything. planning to update as i finish each season
S1:
unknown episode: v* is shown being mopped up in the drunk tank. it is mentioned in the episode before hand. lasts onscreen only briefly and looks like cheerios at worst
unknown episode: officer is sprayed by a skunk by surprise, gagging sounds by coworkers were not triggering for me, however after being sprayed it lasts the rest of the episode
Episode 11: skip from 9:05 till 9:30 to avoid gagging and onscreen v*. protester in green shirt gets sick on West after choking on a key
Episode 20: not v* however a man in a room coughs blood onto an officer (after 17:50 and chens dialogue, coughing begins befor clip visual) and then later his mouth begins to produce blood. He starts shaking violently but doesn’t actually get sick. this whole episode is sensitive
every other episode in S1 is safe
S2
Episode 1 - Nolan v* offscreen after visual of burnt body and Grey says not on the crime scene (18:50) resume at 19:00. Audio only and quiet not too violent
Episode 7 - after Harper takes the suspect from Chen, Chen v*, audio and visual. skip from 36:20- 36:35. brief but visual.
Episode 8 SAFE - suspect of a DUI but nothing happens
Episode 9 SAFE- drunk tank referenced
Episode 14 SAFE - character approaches groaning and is assumed to have been drinking, instead he suffered a head injury. this triggered me. the next scene a character in a dim hallway runs in frantic saying “im gonna ___” - nothing happens.
Rest of episodes should be safe
S3
Episode 1 - 23:19 after smelling a bag of chips. not visible and barely audio. lasts a second. she then says can we take a rain check and turns around. captions say r*tching but it didn’t sound like anything at all. was not triggering. Same character around 29:30 finds a bag and grabs money, she gags and v* off screen. no visual. audio sounds like coughing
Episode 2 - people leave a meth house coughing and a cop coughs and v* on screen visual and audio. Not graphic at all for someone who is extremely sensitive. AFter nolan leaves the meth house the cops replace the door and a man puts his face to the window and something comes out of his mouth. it was abrupt but short. idk fs what happened bc i looked away but it doesnt last long.
Episode 10 SAFE - 0:0:11 jackson says still feel like p* nothing happens
Episode 14 SAFE - a man out side rattles the door of chens room. caption says he gets sick but nothing is shown and it isn’t relevant to the plot. this happens before the intro
S4:
E2 SAFE - officer thorsen sees a body and begins coughing due to a gas leak. nothing happens but later tim asks Nyla if he p*ked and she says yes. nothing happens nor is aftermath shown
E5 SAFE from V* - the whole episode has people who foam at the mouth due to a new drug. specifically around 10:20- 11:00 nolan and nyla tackle a lady who is having a seizure. She begins foaming at the mouth. Nothing horrible but may be triggering. She stays on screen until 11 minutes. If seizures trigger you maybe avoid this episode.
E7- 29:50, skip to 30 after being sprayed in the face nolan limps away. the room he is in is dark, the angle has beams that partially cover things but visual and audio is present. Almost as triggering as the protester one in season 1.
E19- around 8:20 after simone gets out of the car and cuffs the guy after training, the trainer v* very suddenly. Visual and audio, skip to 8:30
SEASON 5
unknown episode(s) - V is mentioned multiple times but in a casual sense
E12 - ~17:00, after duke takes the pills he begins to seize and foam at the mouth
E16 - 22:10 tim finds a body with v* on face and floor.
E20- intro is a shot of nolan and bailey is heard coughing in the bathroom after a long night. no visual and audio is not graphic at all(simply coughing and moaning in discomfort) skip to 1:55. Same episode, Lopez is interrogating a suspect, she chugs a soda and belches loudly. may be sensitive but no v*
S1:

It’s a cop show, the whole thing is copaganda. Police force is shown as mostly good with a few “bad eggs” but even then one of the main characters is viewed as good while showing clear signs of racism.

[ S1E11 ] Chen gets stuck with a used hypodermic needle and has to undergo tests to check for infections. She is cleared for viral infections but is put on intravenous antibiotics for a staph infection. In the same episode, Chen stops a woman from using a syringe to try to euthanize her brother, but it does show the needle in the guy's neck and there's a pretty tense standoff.

An officer who was recently shot puts himself in a situation where he ends up encouraging a gang initiate to fight him in order to “get a felony”. He does this while dealing with the trauma of his estranged wife’s addiction and he’s angry and impulsive. Because his wound is not completely healed, he ends up being further injured during the fight but does end up okay.

A man who is hallucinating/delusional is standing in the middle of the road holding a baseball bat with nails sticking out (Walking Dead-type bat) and talking about having to defend himself from zombies. He doesn’t hurt or attack anyone and is talked down very quickly. I’m voting no because he didn’t actually try to hurt anyone/destroy anything.

I don’t know where else to put this, but there is a fender bender and the airbags in the car are deployed and there are the ringing/buzzing sort of sound effects to indicate that the characters in the car are experiencing temporary hearing loss. This happens very briefly.

A woman breaks into a clinic and steals the embryos belonging to her ex wife. She wants to destroy them to get revenge on her ex wife for cheating on her. She holds the vials up in the air and is threatening to smash them but an officer manages to talk her down. The ex wife is extremely distraught because she really wants to have a baby and she says that this is her last chance. No fetuses but I figured embryos were included here.

No but a black rookie is sent into a convenience store under the illusion of getting snacks/taking a bathroom break but he encounters a perp that they’ve been looking for who is a neo-nazi and the 2 get into a fight. The nazi overpowers the cop several times and seems like he has every intention of killing him, but the cop eventually gets the upper hand. This scene made me really uncomfortable because his training officer knew that the nazi would be at the location and didn’t tell the rookie so he was taken by surprise and the training officer just stayed in the car the whole time. It was essentially retribution for him freezing up during a shootout in the previous episode and leaving her vulnerable. Again, this was hugely inappropriate to me because the training officer’s reckless and dangerous behavior isn’t mentioned again or treated as unacceptable. She basically sent a black person to be potentially murdered by a nazi.
