Very brief but sex is discussed and the clichés that come along with it. Examples of scenes with people implied to be having sex are shown, there is also a part where a woman’s breast is shown.

One of the first few clichés they discuss are cops who are troubled but have a “good heart” so they get away with abusing the law.

No ghosts are seen but are implied when they discuss the cliché of animals having a 6th sense and knowing when something paranormal is present.

When discussing the cliché of bad guys always losing, they show a man (the villain of the movie in this example) falling to their death. They also mention how falling is one of the most common and satisfying ways to kill off a villain.
