Media Notes / Parental Guidance Suggested Rating

Watch these movies with your folks, kids...is what we would've said if we actually meant it now.

One of the age ratings of the Motion Picture Association. This rating indicates that some material may not be suitable for young children, and that parental guidance is suggested for them.

In the 2000s and 2010s, the PG certificate became more prominent in rating family entertainment, to the point where the G rating decreased.

Originally, M in the system's first 15 months of existence, then GP for two years.
