Dog is beat with wood. Very disturbing. Guy takes dog and throws it on the road. Later woman finds dog covered in blood. Extremely unnecessary and disrespectful to the viewer. Dog ends up being ok but that makes no difference cause the damage to my mind has been done.

One of the stage technicians is a day drinker and drinks on the job. You don't really see him drunk though, and when you see him passed out it's revealed later that it's not because of alcohol.

Yes, the third episode of the first season focuses on a butcher house and there's also harm to a dog in this episode. I kind of wish I skipped the episode. I will update with any relevant info for folks who care to skip but don't want the gruesome experience of watching. Another commenter said you can skip the episode without missing anything important for the story, too. I'd just say give it a skip.

A person believed to be dead is put in a "hole", beneath tree roots. Even if not technically buried, the person wakes up underground and has to crawl up through a thin layer of dead leaves and snow.

CGI blood splatter when characters are injured or killed. Some shots of lasting, non-fatal injuries (such as cuts to the leg) are done with practical effects, with camera shots that focus on them. Long, lingering shots of dead bodies with blood pooling around them in several episodes. No visible bones, organs, severed limbs, flayed skin, etc.

Not kidnapped necessarily. In this episode, the main character passes out in the bathroom and wakes up in someone's car. They haven't driven anywhere, the person was tending to their bullet wound. Later, a wrapped corpse of another character is stashed in the vehicle, possibly driven a short distance, and ultimately left by a dumpster.

Yes, there's transphobia and homophobia in episode three. The radio host talks about LGBTQ+ folks in a bigoted/hateful/ignorant manner. Around 42 minutes in, you hear some of this again, followed by revealing that the bigotry is part of a persona and the person is intentionally spreading misinformation as part of a radio persona.
