Some of the old shows I loved but God, are they sexist. I don't want to show my kid I Dream of Jeannie or Three's Company or Laverne and Shirley or MASH for those reasons.

Second Percy Jackson as a good one.

My 11 y.o. liked Just Add Magic, though I thought it was annoying to watch. She liked Young Sheldon. She liked Brooklyn 99, which is a little dirty, if that bothers you.

I think going old school is great. I’d also recommend:
Facts of Life
Family Ties
Sabrina the Teenage Witch (the old one with Melissa Joan Hart)
Boy Meets World
Laverne and Shirley
Mork & Mindy
Carol Burnett
Fantasy Island (with Ricardo Montalban)
The Monkees
Who’s the Boss?
I Love Lucy
MASH

Cosby - The show itself was really great, if you can look past the star.


Ugh, the Cosby Show was the best ever. I hate that it makes me feel icky now.


My 12 yr old DD would reject all of these . We are on the Wednesday/Stranger Things/much more dark and mysterious or less innocent track!

A lot of anime though!

Vampire diaries
Lost in space
Raising Cain
Wednesday for sure
Stranger things depending on maturity
Locke and key
The one with Sherlock Holmes sister?
The new Netflix show about English girl who solves murder mysteries?
Fate Winx Saga

I think my 12 yr old DD is on her 100th time watching Stranger Things lol!

Gortimer Gibbon's Life on Normal Street--we watched it when the kids were a little younger but we all loved it and still talk about it now!

It’s still a great show with great values.

MOST Hollywood actors are truly horrible people in real life (ie Harvey Weinstein and all who covered for him). It’s nicknamed Holly-weird for good reason.

But don’t discount good cinema over that.

Cosby Show is fine (and yes, bill is a monster; glad the police got him).
