He is a new 16 year old. Birthday last month. Young 16, not near 17. Thank you.


This isn't the birth to toddler set, when a few months can make a developmental difference, OP. "New" 16 is the same as 15 is the same as 17 for the majority of movies you wouldn't cringe to watch with your teen!

Weirdo.


Your opinion doesn’t matter to me.

To others, thanks for your suggestions. We started Arrested Development and it’s funny/amusing! Have heard great things about Wednesday. Will try it later.

Not sure what to recommend if he didn’t like The Office… but my 16 year old just watched Breaking Bad and is currently watching Better Call Saul. We have watched Succession, Ted Lasso, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Friday Night Lights, 30 Rock among others.

Love Wednesday!

Schitts Creek also

I have an older DD so my world views lend toward her but looking for suggestions also as DS is a year younger.

My 17 year old liked the Terry Pratchett mini-series, particularly Good Omens. You can read the books and see how they differ.



Ugh. Not recently adopted and not stepson. Is there a relevance?

I am looking for something to watch with him, not have him watch alone.


PP you replied to. I'm not sure why you're triggered, and why you misread posts. I did not say DS watched it alone. I said he enjoyed it. Aren't you looking for series he might enjoy? We watched Good Omens as a family - it's EXCELLENT - and Going Postal as well. The Hogfather was a little out there. The books are fun too, but have a different atmosphere.

More recently, he also liked Wednesday.

Ugh, not Entourage unless you’re looking to turn him into a misogynist.

Agreed. Especially if he’s new to the family! Many of the scenes would be awkward
