PG V (Violence) rating may
contain moderate violence,
while a TV-14 V (Violence)
rating may contain more intense
violence.

blocking capability, the age-
based ratings should be
blocked.

programs, be aware that the
following types of programs
may be blocked: emergency
broadcasts, political programs,
sports, news, public service
announcements, religious
programs and weather.
