Ms. Marvel Gets TV-PG Rating: What Does This Mean for the Show?


Ms. Marvel is bound to make history as her debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe gets rated TV-PG. What does this mean for the upcoming show of Kamala Khan? Well, if this sticks until the series comes out, this will be the very first title under the franchise to get such rating and it means it will be the most kid-friendly in the whole line-up.

Appearing on Disney Plus, Ms. Marvel has been listed a rating of TV-PG and while the rating means some scenes may still be unsuitable for younger children and strong parental guidance is still needed given that there may be some coarse language, suggestive lines, or moderate violence, for Ms. Marvel to have such a rating makes it the first of its kind under the Marvel Cinematic Universe roster.

Marvel Cinematic Universe movies get the rating of PG-13 and nothing less than that, and series are usually given TV-14 which is the television version of a PG-13. While WandaVision was first rated as TV-PG, it did not stick with the show as just before its release, it was given a TV-14 rating and watching the series, there are really some scenes that would not be suitable for children below 14 years old.

If Ms. Marvel would have the said rating stick until the show releases, it would be the very first title in the line-up of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to have the said rating. This will also mean that even when it still has a caveat for parents’ strong guidance, it would be the most kid-friendly title the MCU will have since its inception.
