Rizzoli & Isles

TV Show • 2010 • Crime  

Report
Perhaps their strikingly different personalities make the relationship between detective Jane Rizzoli and medical examiner Maura Isles so effective. Jane, the only female cop in Boston's homicide division, is tough, relentless and rarely lets her guard down, while the impeccably dressed Maura displays a sometimes icy temperament — she is, after all, more comfortable among the dead than the living. Together, the best friends have forged a quirky and supportive relationship; they drop the protective shield in each other's company, and combine their expertise to solve Boston's most complex cases.

season 4, epsiode 9 - 3 allusions to puppy/dog killing in budding serial killer behavior; around 14.5 min mark Jane has a nightmare where Hoit describes killing a dog when he was young - fast forward to around 15.5 min mark to avoid it

season 6, episode 18 - around the 10 minute mark a police dog (german shepard) gets shot in the woods and they show it twice, once pretty up close.

Jane and Maura find a couple of snakes of the front seat of their car. There are a few stereotypical "snake sounds" before they show the snakes. They are only shown for a few seconds, a few seconds later there's a quick shot of a snake handler putting them away (they are not killed). I can't recall any other moments with snakes.

Definitely in S2E7, but it's not shown on screen, only the burned body is shown. At the end of that episode the murderer tries to burn another victim and the fire is already burning, but the victim gets saved before the flames reach her. There might be a few times more, but it's never shown (or heard) on screen.

There is a scene where some characters are trying to "talk to the ghost" of a murder victim. One of them appears to get possessed (voluntarily) by said ghost for a short moment and says a few words through the mouth of the "vessel". It's kind of left open if something supernatural actually happened but it's alluded to that it was fake by the main characters (also Rizzoli & Isles is a series without any supernatural elements in general)

No, but in one episode a character keeps saying that a murder was done by a ghost. That however turns out to be wrong.

S1:1 & S:1:2
Rizzoli’s partner, Det. Frost, throws up when he sees a dead body. Audio and no visual. In episode 1, it’s early on and he’s v……g in the ditch. In episode 2, it’s at the morgue when attending an autopsy…easy to know it will happen.

Season 2, episode 2. A pregnant woman is stabbed and dies.
It's graphic. They perform an emergency c-section and the baby is stillborn but revived. VERY graphic.

There is a bit, but Rizzoli and Isles in general definitely leans to the less extreme side. You never see any organs for example, but some shots of dead bodies that are gross. It ofc depends on where you draw the line. I personally really dislike gore, but I had no problem with this show.
