Question about the Parental Ratings hierarchy

[DGMayor 88]

I'm curious as to where the Parental Rating hierarchy comes from.   Is this set it stone or some that can be discussed?

 

Reason I ask is that I think that PG / TV-PG should be lower than TV-Y7.  There are lots of Kid's movies that are PG (Bee Movie, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, Bolt, Brave etc) that are much more suitable for younger kids than shows that are geared towards the 7 year old range ( shows like Avengers, Hulk, Justice League, Lego Star Wars, Ultimate Spider-Man, etc).

You'll have to talk to the ratings agencies.  TV-Y7 is under TV-PG.  You can always enter custom ratings for things though.

i am curious as to the ratings levels i.e. which are higher/lower than the others not to change them just to know the order?

Some thing in here might help you

Television content rating system - Wikipedia

And here is a plugin that will save you time editing ratings.

Every country will have their own index.

            LoadRatings("us", new[] {

                new ParentalRating("TV-Y", 1),
                new ParentalRating("APPROVED", 1),
                new ParentalRating("G", 1),
                new ParentalRating("E", 1),
                new ParentalRating("EC", 1),
                new ParentalRating("TV-G", 1),
                new ParentalRating("TV-Y7", 3),
                new ParentalRating("TV-Y7-FV", 4),
                new ParentalRating("PG", 5),
                new ParentalRating("TV-PG", 5),
                new ParentalRating("PG-13", 7),
