When do U.S. Television Ratings appear on YouTube?
When a television show in the YouTube Shows and Movies category has been assigned a rating (typically by its producer or a network on which it was aired), the rating is displayed under the video as well as in the YouTube player before the show begins. These ratings include TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14, TV-MA and more. Access to television shows rated TV-MA is restricted to older audiences, and you must be signed into your YouTube account in order to watch them.
For more information and descriptions of each rating, visit the TV Parental Guidelines website.
