Maturity rating

Used in: Movie, TV show

The maturity rating (sometimes also called “content rating”) rates different media types for their suitability to the viewers. Many countries have instances who do this work, e.g. the British Board of Film Classification in the UK or the Freiwillige Selbstkontrolle der Filmwirtschaft in Germany.

If you want to add such ratings to the OFDb, you can do so by clicking the button Add Classification under Maturity rating. Select the respective country in the Country field and the correct classification in the Classification field.

You can add multiple entries, ideally one for each country with a maturity rating.

Currently you can’t add more values to be used in the Classification field, but only chose from a given set of pre-defined values.
