By David Cohen -- Multichannel News, 2/5/2007 12:17:00 PM

Common Sense Media will offer reviews and recommendations to help parents in Comcast and Cox Communications systems make informed choices about what their children are viewing, the nonpartisan organization and the two MSOs announced Monday.

Common Sense said that under its multiyear commitment, it will provide detailed age-based information about TV shows, movies, Web sites, video games and books.

Comcast said it will make dozens of Common Sense’s reviews of movies and TV programs available via its video-on-demand service and on its broadband portal, Comcast.net, later this year.

As for Cox, the operator will integrate Common Sense’s reviews, recommendations and media parent tips into its Take Charge! initiative, which includes its cable-television and high speed-Internet services. The MSO will also launch a co-branded section on its Take Charge! Web site.
