However, a sizable portion of the episodes short runtime is Rusty smashing a cricket ball against the side of his parents house, visibly damaging the siding, with zero on-screen repercussions. That's exactly the sort of thing I don't want my child emulating, and the show makes it seem like it's an ok behavior.
Children copy things they see. If you're going to show a child doing something they shouldn't it needs to be at the very least shown in a negative light.
All the show needed to do was have the final couple seconds of the episode be his mom standing next to the damage yelling "Rusty!", it would have made for a good comedic closer and shown kids that it's a problem.
