Here's a list of five TV shows I love, and how family-friendly they are.
Doctor Who: There are two different shows when you Google this. The old Doctor Who show started in the sixties, ended in the eighties, and was brought back in 2005. For family-friendliness, there are a lot of scary episodes, some innuendos but nothing explicit, and a little bit of language. Recommended for 13+, but anyone old enough to watch it definitely should.
Once Upon a Time: A fairy tale show based in Maine. Created by the writers of Lost, it's a show that takes a lot of twists and turns and keeps you guessing until the very end. Family-friendliness, again, not for kids. Some violence, the first season is the worst with innuendos, and more language than Doctor Who. 13+
Scorpion: A show about a team of geniuses who work for the government while trying to fit into the "normal" world. Endearing characters and exciting. Quite a bit of language, though none of the worst two swears, no sexual content, but a LOT of violence and tense scenes. 16+
Merlin: A brilliant retelling of the story of King Arthur. The first four scenes are pretty family-friendly; you rarely see any blood, and the battles do a decent job of cutting away. There's a bit of British language in it, nothing extreme. 12+, I'd say.
Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes: A cartoon that aired on Disney XD and lasted for two seasons. For older kids, but adults will enjoy it too for its connection to the comics and entertaining characters. 10+
I'll give a detailed description of each of these shows in later blog posts. Enjoy!
