    Default S/O Recommend shows for 13 yo and 11 yo

    I’m looking for ideas of shows to watch with my 13 yo and 11 yo. It’s generally DC and I home together so it doesn’t feel right to tell DS2 to find something else to do so DS1 and I can watch something that skews older. They have watched a lot of what’s available on Disney + but not much else. I know a lot of DS1s friends have seen Cobra Kai but I’m not comfortable with the language in that one and the overuse of the P word. I would prefer to avoid sex scenes and violence. We have Amazon Prime, cable (but don’t have movie channels), Netflix and Hulu. Recommendations on where we should we start?

    My kids are 12 and 14 (girls). They enjoy watching shows on HGTV and Nailed It on Netflix. We also watch Merlin on Netflix as a family. They enjoy watching High School Musical on Disney+ on their own. I was watching When Calls the Heart with them when it was on Netflix, need to figure out how to access the last few seasons. We started The Good Witch on Netflix, but got distracted with the Olympics when they were on. They are also really into America’s Got Talent right now, and are hoping to watch the para-olympics (hoping peacock has replays).

    For "skews older but not bad to have on" shows, maybe Leverage. Psych would be a possibility but there is a bit more violence/death. My kids really enjoyed watching Malcolm in the Middle, too, which is on IMDB tv, through Prime, but with commercials.

    ETA: if you can find it on, my kids like Futurama, but it might also find it's way onto the "Watched, don't watch again" list for some households. Psych is probably also a, "if you can find it on some channel" because I think it's on Peacock now.
