Netflix To Release Good Times Reboot As An Animation

This animated series falls squarely into the realm of adult entertainment, boasting a TV-MA rating, indicating its unsuitability for younger audiences. The classification stems from its depiction of gore, strong language, nudity, smoking, and violence, making it clear that it’s intended for mature viewers exclusively. Considering the content, it’s advisable to ensure children are engaged with age-appropriate material before delving into this show. Fortunately, Netflix offers a plethora of kid-friendly movies and shows to keep them entertained.
