No - although they are similar in many respects. The closest analog is between TV-MA and PG-13
TV MA is a TV rating meaning "For Mature Audiences Only".
R is an MPAA rating meaning "Restricted - under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian"
Officially TV MA means:
"This program is specifically designed to be viewed by adults and therefore may be unsuitable for children under 17. This program may contain one or more of the following: crude indecent language (L), explicit sexual activity (S), or graphic violence (V)."
Officially R is assigned for:
- Violence that is both intense and persistent (at least an R rating although NC-17 could, in theory be assigned if it were intense and persistent enough) The most violent R rated films are more violent than the most violent TV-MA programs
- Multiple occurrences of one of the harsher sexually-derived expletives and/or he usage of such an expletive in a sexual context. The most vulgar and crude language in R rated films will exceed that permitted in TV-MA.
- Anything more than "brief" nudity and nudity that is sexually oriented. Nothing more than brief nudity is allowed in TV-MA
