Help! What to watch on tv with my kids

Sorry this is a bit random but recently separated and just trying to do “normal” stuff with my kids to help them feel more settled. We like to watch tv in the evenings but recently have literally been scrolling through for hours trying to find stuff we all want to watch (and they haven’t already seen) and is more or less appropriate as well as fun. Help!!! I have 3 boys (13,11 and 8) and one girl (5). Can sometimes split them so it’s just the older or younger ones. We’re by no means addicts (!) but it’s just a nice relaxing family thing to do in the evenings. What do you like watching with your kids as a family? Tia x

My are 12 and 10.
They both like things like Shop/Eat well for less, Inside the factory, Top Gear and some Horizon documentaries.

My 12yr old likes Live at the Apollo, Romesh Ranganathan and Michael McIntyre at weekends. 10yr old loves Casualty, it's as formulaic as ever.

My daughter and I watch Friends, American Housewife and reality type shows like Bake off etc. I watch The Flash with my 13yearold DS.

We love Australian Masterchef, and Nailed It on Netflix.

We often enjoy a film together on Netflix or some old series such as Dr Who or Merlin. The boys enjoy nature programmes and all the reality crime programmes. They also will watch the antique shows and cookery shows. In fact they are complete tele addicts and will watch most things!!!

E4! The good place, young sheldon, blackish etc..
We like Holby, junior masterchef and wildlife programmes too.
And they think Kitchen nightmares (daytime edit) is hilarious.
