Season 4, episode 4. One of the characters becomes a zombie and eats a stray dog to keep from eating a human. It isn't seen, but it is implied since he has a bag with entrails later.

James (a trans man) isn't depicted as sexually predatory, but his power is being able to swap genitals with cis men, which results in Alex, a cis man (who did not consent to this process), having to exist with a vagina for a while which causes a form of dysphoria and upset. It is also joked about and not taken seriously by other characters. The "process" was corrected by James having to cup Alex's genitals to swap them back, so the process was most likely done the same way in the first place (I cannot remember), which is definitely a form of assault.

Unclear - I’m not sure how old the characters are when the series starts. Nathan makes a sexual joke about Simon’s sister before finding out that she is 12. Nothing very serious.

In S1 E4, in the scenes where Kelly is slumped against a wall.

In S2 E8, someone uses their power to make someone vomit in two separate scenes. Both are quite graphic.

The first starts right after the line "You can do stuff with milk".

The second starts as a woman is talking about the charity work she did in India.

In the only notable case of suicide, the character is immortal and the suicide is in order to show off the immortality. However, it is graphic.

Sort of? A character has the ability to change gender and accidentally impregnates their female body. He has his power taken away so he cannot change back into his female self, thus terminating the pregnancy.

There is a literal joke where a character says that men who wear women's clothing are "just sick perverts", but there are no visual gags or stereotypes.

In s1 e2, there is top nudity from a young woman and an old woman. Simon is briefly naked from behind in one of the last episodes of s2 (can’t remember which one). The intro of s2 e2 involves Nathan putting on sunblock while wearing very little (played for laughs).

Nathan considers himself to be homeless. He lives in the community centre (illegally), so he's living fairly comfortably and there's nothing particularly unpleasant in regards to homelessness.
