Any other ratings autists here?I'm fucking obsessed with rating systems. I keep track of them on every show or movie I'm into. I can't be the only one, there's actually an entire site that lists episode by episode ratings for adult swim and toonami showsTV ratings might be my favorite ones for some reason although movie ratings are also fun to read
>>153266785My favorite examples are shows that frequently flip flop on ratings depending on the episode. Smiling Friends had TV-14 and MA episodes Aqua Teen would go from PG to 14 to MA Seasons 1-20 of South Park were all rerated to TV-14 with no further edits back in 2017
Why?
>>153266805I have no clueI feel crazy
>>153266785Jack Valenti and his cheeks would approve of you.
>>153266785Top 3 fun facts about ratings?
>>153266873The origins of the PG-13 rating due to films like Indiana Jones The fact that PG was originally GP for a good whileApparently TV-MA was originally TV-M but I can't find much photo evidence of it
>>153266785Nahh you're not alone. I pay especially close attention to shows like King of the Hill that could teeter between TV-PG and TV-14 depending on the contents of the episode. I've also noticed Gumball's revival marks that franchise's first time it's been labeled TV-PG after years and years of TV-Y7 FV despite always being about as edgy as AT, RS, or SU (sometimes MORE).
>>153266896>>153266873And the craziest thing to me is how recent TV ratings actually are. Being implemented in 1997.
>>153266785Most autists are obsessed with things like stinky feet or seeing cartoon characters shoot water out of their noses. I'd say you lucked out.
>>153266926KekThanks
>>153266909>implemented in 1997Just at the right time for my parents, I guess
I love how newgrounds lets you rate your videos from E to Adults onlyWish YouTube did that
>>153266785For me it's Movie/TV/Game ratingsStudio logosPhysical media
>>153266909That is pretty wild. Did introducing a rating system affect tv production soon after that?It looks like GP stood for the same thing, weird. I feel like I’ve seen an M rating but it’s probably the Berenstain effect from M rated video games.
>>153266785Honestly, I'm weirdly fascinated by how films get rated in some countries. Can you believe that some PG-13 films like Venom and The Batman have a 15 rating in the UK? (The UK's 15 rating is their equivalent of the US R rating, btw.)
>>153266961>movie ratings I've noticed more Pixar movies being rated PG for "mild language." I think Incredibles 2 was the first of its kind to be hit with that, followed by Turning Red and now Hoppers (picrel)
>>153266785Not particularly autistic about it, but as a fun fact, Brazil only has the Classificação Indicativa as the main rating system for most mediums here.
>>153266803>Smiling Friends ended with a TV-MA LSV episodeBased imo
>>153266972New Zealand and Australia rate a lot of the PG things M. They really, really don't like violence. Also had a history of banning videogames.
>>153266964NTA but there were already standards departments well before ratings came about so it probably didn't change too much
Canada's rating systems are surprisingly laxLot of R rated movies get rated 14 there
>>153267005Why are bongs and bong's youngest colonies like this?
>>153266803SameI actually dislike Netflix's way of blanket rating their shows but if I had to guess it's because of the sheer amount of content they have. Scott Pilgrim Takes Off got a TV-MA rating which kinda surprised O'Malley.Even funnier considering the new game is E10+
>>153266785Any theories as to why ratings and logos attract autists?
>>153266785What the fuck does the Y in TV-Y/Y7 stand for?
>>153267005What's interesting about this is that some Australian ratings are funnily enough LESS restrictive in comparison to the US and/or the UK. Alien and The Matrix are among just a few examples.
>>153267093In the TV-Y7 rating, "Y" stands for Young (specifically "Young Children"). TV-Y7 indicates content designed for children age 7 and older, featuring more complex fantasy or comedic violence than the TV-Y ("All Children") rating.
>>153267108I still believe The R rating on the Matrix films was done for ideological reasons
>>153267044They're subtypes of classification autism.
>>153267044Can't speak for logos but ratings serve as a way to group things and autists love to organize/group different shit
>>153266785It's interesting seeing TV ratings get more and more lenient these days. I remember "shit" beginning to be said uncensored on TV-14 shows around 2013 or so. FX lets MA shows say fuck and cunt uncensored now too
Why was it forbidden to say "hell" and "damn" in cartoons, and when it happened it was seen like a big deal?
>>153267187Parent groups who demand that TV serve as a babysitter/third parent. This imo, killed western tv animation We should have been seeing light swearing in kids cartoons years ago
>>153267215I remember The Clone Wars on cartoon network in 2009 used hell and damn. But it was TV-PG V and aired at 9 PM.
>>153266803>Seasons 1-20 of South Park were all rerated to TV-14 with no further edits back in 2017I didn't know this, so I looked into it. Apparently a handful of episodes were kept TV-MA some of which are:Conjoined Fetus LadyProper Condom UseStupid Spoiled WhoreBloody MaryTrapped in the ClosetApologies to Jesse JacksonDances With SmurfsImaginationland trilogyNo idea why some of these were kept TV-MA
>>153267215It's unbelievable how hard parents destroyed the potential of comics and cartoons in the anglosphere. At least videogames came in later enough to escape that fate.
Pharrell's animated Lego documentary may be the edgiest PG film I've seen in a while.They said shit like 3 times
>>153267044Logos attach a timespace story to indexable categories through repetition and transformation of meaning-making symbols. They’re cartoons.
>>153266785I've always liked them visuallyAnyone here have transparent/higher quality versions of these Canadian ones?
>>153266818Because you areNow fuck off
>>153267611This is a good thread, though
>>153266785Cool, I like this stuff too.Fucking hate how streaming services just do blanket ratings now. Was in this server for that stuff but left because they seemed more interested in collecting live screencaps of each rating as if they're trading cards, then actually analyzing what got rated what and why. Also just really bad tweenage autism of sending death threats to people for canceling their show, pic related
>>153267785Disney Plus still does episode by episode ratings last I checked
>>153266803>Seasons 1-20 of South Park were all rerated to TV-14 with no further edits back in 2017Not shocking, Matt and Trey talk about how tame those first few seasons were in hindsight.
>>153267010ReBoot retaining its C8 rating going into season 3 will always be funny to me

Post rare ratings.
>>153266785As a kid it was surreal seeing Regular Show and Adventure Time with TV-PG ratings, like these aren't your average kids cartoons anymore.
>>153269103Sad they walked back in that with their newer shows
