No dogs die (or are shown, at least as of episode 4), but the two main characters have a hypothetical conversation about whether one could eat a pet or not. It’s relatively mild but it might disturb some people. Skip from approx 33:00 - 34:30 if you want to avoid.

Quite a lot of it, actually. Larry is considered a "serial confessor" of crimes, for crimes he actually committed. Jimmy gaslight Larry in episode four, when Larry asks if someone's been in his cell. Other instances, but those are the big ones.

the show is about a serial killer who murders women, including young girls. the body of a teenage girl is shown in the first episode, but other girls’ murders are talked about (probably more bodies later on but i’ve only seen one ep)

warnings (all episodes)- episode 1: safe,
episode 2: safe, episode 3: not safe, at around 3 minutes in you see a guy at a table with a tattoo "6" on his forehead and he throws up everywhere visual and audio extremely unexpected, episode 4: unsafe-ish?? in the riot scene you see a guy throw up blood but this didn't bother me much personally it just depends what triggers you,
episode 5: safe, episode 6: not safe, at the part when jimmys dad and step mom go out for lunch around the beginning 10-12 minutes and after she says "hes having a stroke" skip immediately cause it def messed me up for a minute
