:oops: :oops: I tried a couple of "new" shows on Netflix and was terribly surprised! :oops: :oops: I didn't even know these types of things were ON Netflix period. :shock:

There is no warning, no rating, no anything to suggest what's in it - at least nothing i could find.

be sure you complain to netflix - don't just let them think that no one minds!

What shows are you talking about? All the ones I've seen have ratings and a description. I also went into the settings and set it so you have to enter a code to watch anything over pg-13.

The one i just tried was a Netflix "original" called "OA". Most of them do have some kind of rating. This one does not. I can't remember what the last one was but i need to. I don't want to run into it again!

Underneath the title, it says TV-MA. I think the MA means mature?

Yeah, I made that mistake with a different show on Netflix. Awhile back, I tried this show that people were raving about. I think it's called "Black Mirror". I didn't check the rating at the time, but it must be MA. It was the most vile thing I've ever seen and I grew up watching some twisted movies/shows, so it takes a lot to disgust me. I heard the first episode was the worst and they supposedly get better after that one, but I felt so insulted that I was definitely not going back for more.

The things people watch these days!

I wish they would change the rating from "mature" or "adult" to "sick" and "vile"!

Couldn't agree more. There's nothing "mature" or "adult" about watching garbage - quite the contrary.

A "mature" rating can go on things like denture adhesive and adult diapers ;) - but not on gross movies.

Yeah.. I rented a movie last year, thinking I'd enjoy a movie night while the kids were away... Well let's just say I check ratings very well now! And I thank God kids were NOT home!
