15 year old stays up after his younger brother has gone to bed. We have just watched all of friday night dinner in 10 evenings and enjoyed that. We have watched stranger things and are fans.
My DH and i loved sex education but we are not watching that with DS - too rude! Blush
What else is there to watch that is suitable? On Netflix ideally?
Thanks

Lots of (funny) sex in Ozark S1!

Upright is great-on Sky though.

Money heist. Spanish, but dubbed into English.

Doggodogington · 03/05/2020 23:25

Brooklyn 99 for sure!!
BBC iplayer- ghosts- v. Funny
Does he like scary things? If so, the haunting of hill house.
After life.

I'd say something like Brooklyn 99.

Or what about another British comedy like Peep Show or Spaced if you like Friday Night Dinner?

BeardedMum · 07/05/2020 23:48

Atypical and Never have I ever are both good.

covetingthepreciousthings · 08/05/2020 09:03

Agree with the suggestion of Ghosts - that was brilliant.

Also Cuckoo and Inside No.9 (bit of a mixed bag, but some really great ones)

Stranger Things

Atypical

I'm currently watching Snowpiercer (Netflix) with 15yo DS. There was a particularly gruesome scene in Ep 2, where both he and I had to cover our eyes... But he says he's enjoying it.

Also rewatching Outnumbered with his younger siblings. (Think he identifies with Jake's exasperation.)

Best thing we watched last year was Chernobyl – he was completely gripped, and still talks about it. Think it's still available on NowTV if you have that?

Just started watching Alex Rider on Amazon, he might like it, it’s about a teenage spy.

iknowimcoming · 07/06/2020 23:11

I started watching space force today - has had bad reviews but I thought it was funny

idril · 22/06/2020 21:55

Prison Break. My 14 year old was hooked.

lorisparkle · 22/06/2020 21:59

We like Sherlock on BBC iPlayer.
