What shows did your whole family (parents and teens) enjoy?

We’re currently watching Jury Duty Presents: Corporate Retreat with 14 yo DD - so good! The non actor in the show is just the most lovable sweetie, plus it’s quite funny!

This is odd, but we watch Love is Blind together. Lots of opportunities to talk about what’s ok and not in dating behavior. No one wants a lecture from mom on this stuff but it’s more of a conversation when so and so is being a jerk on the show. (Definitely some inappropriate parts but we have older teens.)

I dunno. I think it’s important to push on some of that with our boys. It’s ok to watch shows with female main characters. I haven’t watched Ginny and Georgia but Derry Girls is hilarious for any gender. My teen DS watched it and liked it a lot.


OP here. DS originally declined to watch The Summer I Turned Pretty with DD and me but eventually got sucked in just by passing through several times when the show was on.

To The Pitt poster, that is our current favorite!

Both my DD and DS loved Never Have I Ever. Males don’t always need to be the center of every story or be told that it’s ok to avoid stories where they aren’t.

Your son will probably like Derry Girls. It is so hilarious for any gender.

Greek (still watching)

Tried x-files, but that really didn't age well and they were bored. Per PP's recommendation, I think we will start Never Have I Ever
