Age ratings for videos

Age ratings for videos (including TV series and movies) on Halfspire make it easier to filter or find content that's appropriate for different age groups. Most TV series and movies on Halfspire have age ratings from TV Parental Guidelines:

  • TV-Y This program is designed to be appropriate for all children.

  • TV-Y7 This program is designed for children age 7 and above.

  • TV-G Most parents will find this program suitable for all ages.

  • TV-PG This program contains material that parents may find unsuitable for younger children.

  • TV-14 This program contains material that most parents would find unsuitable for children under 14 years of age.

  • TV-MA This program is specifically designed to be viewed by adults and therefore may be unsuitable for children under 17.

We use these age ratings for videos without a TV Parental Guidelines rating:

  • Rated 0+ Suitable for all audiences.

  • Rated 6+ Suitable for ages 6 and up. Some mildly scary scenes and very mild violence may be present. No bad language is present.

  • Rated 10+ Suitable for ages 10 and up. Fantasy violence and scenes that could be slightly frightening to a 10-year-old may be. No bad language.

  • Rated 13+ Suitable for ages 13 and up. Slightly more graphic violence, scary scenes, and some bad language may be present. Heavily extreme and realistic violence is not present.

  • Rated 16+ Suitable for ages 16 and up. This rating is applied on a case-by-case basis when content exceeds a certain level of violence or sexual content.

  • Rated 18+ Suitable for ages 18 and up. This rating is applied on a case-by-case basis when violence, drugs, or sexual activities are glamorized to an extent that it could have a heavy negative influence on the decisions of children and teenagers.

Please note that we may be required to use different ratings depending on where you live. Some content might display local ratings from your country's TV ratings board if we detect that you reside in Australia, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Romania, Canada, Croatia, South Korea, Ireland, or the United Kingdom.
