Common Sense Says
Tense FBI drama needs more mojo. Teens and up.Appropriate For?
Age Appropriate Some Iffy Stuff Not Age Appropriate15
What's the Story?
Procedural crime drama STANDOFF takes a slightly different slant amid the overcrowded genre. Each episode details a single scenario in which FBI crisis negotiators Matt Flannery (Ron Livingston) and Emily Lehman (Rosemarie DeWitt) work together to talk down a perpetrator. To complicate things, Flannery and Lehman are lovers as well as colleagues. Livingston plays Flannery a bit macho:In one testosterone-laden scene, after Flannery has revealed his relationship with Lehman, one of his colleagues rudely tells him he needs to "keep that bitch on a leash." This prompts Flannery to pick up a rifle from the firing range and threaten the man, and soon the two are off to fight it out with paint pellet guns.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that this high-tension crime drama depicts scenarios that may be scary to children and younger teens, including hostage situations involving kids. Perpetrators usually have weapons like guns or explosives and threaten helpless victims. FBI agents also carry heavy firepower, and though there's little actual shooting (except at the firing range), there's plenty of aiming. The two central characters are in a sexual relationship, and they kiss passionately and talk generally about sex. One minor character is overtly sexist without any repercussions. Families can talk about relationships at work. How does having an intimate relationship with someone you work with affect your job? Are there certain jobs at which people shouldn't be allowed to date each other? Can being in a relationship at work help you do your job better?
