r/televisionsuggestions on Reddit: Looking for a show for me and my 12 year old
February 7, 2024 -
We loved Gravity Falls, Owl House, Amphibia and the Duck tales. We watch Bobs burgers but a show that’s suitable, funny, with an overarching story is ideally what we want. Doesnt have to be animation as we also enjoyed Stranger Things and Wednesday.
Edit - Thanks for all those suggestions. There’s lots of stuff I didn’t know about. Made a massive list and we’re going ti give most of them a try.

Avatar: The Last Airbender. The first season is a little more juvenile, especially in some of the bottle episodes, but still good. Seasons 2 and 3 just get better and better. Great show for all ages.

The 20 Best TV Shows for 9 to 12 Year Olds (Because Your Tween Needs Some Quality Content)
April 25, 2025 - Yet another one based on a bestselling book series, this live action show starring Neil Patrick Harris is pretty much the definition of macabre. The storyline is very imaginative though, the dialogue is witty and the spooks are relatively mild…at least for kids who can handle a few adult deaths, that is. ... An oldie-but-goodie that you might remember if you’re a millennial parent like me—this 1993 Disney sitcom starring Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel is a blast from the past that you and your gen alpha tween might enjoy.

Some good teenage tv shows. (mainly for girls) NOT IN RANKING ORDER
so basically i live in england and i hate our big brother because it's a bunch of fat slobs sitting around trying to make people like them by being pretentious idiots so people vote for them or whatnot, the american big brother ont the other hand is an actual competition, with the HOH and POV etc, you never know what will happen in the bb house, the last season was rubbish though, due to the presence of veterans. seasons 11 and 12 are good watches.
