Citadel parents guide

Heads up on moderate sex and nudity. That is past what the TV-14 on the box suggests. Beyond that, some strong language and strong violence.

Our estimate: fine from about 16, higher than the TV-14 suggests, because of the sex and nudity.

What is Citadel about?

What if you lost your memory? What if a spy didn't know they were a spy? Years ago, the top agents of Citadel, Mason Kane and Nadia Sinh, had their minds wiped. But, they're called back to action as sinister forces emerge from the past. With the help of spymaster Bernard Orlick, these former lovers must remember the past to save the future.

Does it have a happy ending? (spoiler-safe)

It leaves things open rather than tying them up.
