Fun fact: I am Groot is the only MCU project to keep the PG rating from start to end.

Marvel doesn't do a lot of PG-rated projects. And even those that did get the TV-PG rating (no films in here because you know it), most failed to keep the rating.

Here's a list of MCU projects that had the TV-PG rating:

* Agents of SHIELD (later seasons were rated TV-14)
* [WandaVision and Ms. Marvel (later episodes were rated TV-14)](https://www.reddit.com/r/MarvelStudiosSpoilers/comments/v5g6z9/ms_marvel_is_now_rated_tv14_instead_of_pg/)
* I Am Groot
* Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man (?)

Technically, it's still possible that Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man loses the TV-PG rating by breaking Gwen Stacy's neck in future seasons but I'm not sure, she's Ghost-Spider.

So I am Groot is the only MCU project to be rated TV-PG and to keep that rating.

Genuinely fun watch for a quick binge

*I Am Groot* is also one of only two animated Marvel Studios projects set in the MCU 616, the other being *Eyes of Wakanda*.

It's not really animated though

jhsounds2025-11-01 21:29

What are you on about? There isn't a single live-action thing in *I Am Groot*. Photorealistic animation is still animation.

ArmadilloOk14452025-11-01 21:32

I mean, I disagree on that last take, Groot looks the exact same in the live-action movies as he does in this "animated series", that's like saying the live action Lion Kings are animated since the animals are technically CGI despite being entirely indistinguishable from the real thing

"thing looks too real to be animated even though i know its animated"

ooookay dude.

Was just about to say, Pixar has made incredibly life-like texturing on characters and backgrounds. I mean, just look at WALL-E.

Isn't mo-cap technically live action even if there isn't a single frame with anything real? I think that was the legal loophole Polar Express was made with even though the licensing contract states it had to be live action.

Do you consider video games live action?

Belteshazzar982025-11-02 14:40

Some are.

I see you refused to answer any of the questions posed and instead offered completely irrelevant information, just making yourself look even more stupid so I’m just going to assume by the information you have given that you do indeed think Fortnite is a live action game just because it is mocapped, despite the cartoonish visuals.

Also, upon further looking… no one claimed Polar express was live action either. It was marketed as an animated film with a live action feel.

On top of all that, I Am Groot was marketed as a series of animated shorts… so I don’t even know why you are trying to argue for it live action if Disney itself considered it animated.

Mad Dog McCree and Night Trap checking in.

I have always said that Ant Man and the Wasp 2018 should be rated PG, it was pretty tame

Belteshazzar982025-11-02 04:20

I think language was what got it up barely into PG-13.

In Australia, they were

I just wish they made it easy to watch as a series for the kids. Just click on one and have them all play sequentially without the lengthy credits.

i really enjoy this one actually....
