I found OP’s wording confusing as well, and the response rude. Maybe OP, it would be helpful if you clarified (nicely) with something like “newly 16” or “just turned 16.”

Seriously. Is OP ESL?

I never see it mentioned here, but our entire family, including three teens, enjoys Home Economics.

I loved watching these with my teens:

Parks and Rec (skip the first season and give it another try!)
Brooklyn 99
Psych
Arrested Development (it loses the plot after a few seasons)
Ted Lasso
The West Wing

I loved Veep but may not be for all tastes (lots of swearing).

Jack Ryan (action, not sitcom)
Barry (violent but funny)

Honestly, now that my son is 16 we watch anything we are both interested in. We do have a pact that we fast forward through sex scenes bc we both find them uncomfortable to sit through together.

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.


And yet... you responded.

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


All you Entourage haters don’t understand satire

Do you think big bang theory is also misogynistic?

Btw add big bang theory to the list


Thanks! I will.
