S2 Ep1 - at about 3:55 a man breaks another man's thumbs. You do see the thumbs post-breaking. Then at the very end of the episode (around 48 minutes), the same man breaks another man's fingers. It's pretty easy to see coming and you don't miss any crucial information by skipping it. You again see the thumbs post-breaking, and it is graphic.

There is a decent amount of sexual content in this series. There is A LOT of full frontal male nudity. Like... a TON. The character of Judy is very sexual in the way she speaks about her fetishes and needs. Oral sex is shown at one point. The blackmail video that is shown multiple times is also very sexual in nature, the final time it’s seen there is full on sex.
