What age for Umbrella Academy and Lucifer?

[SecondAttempt]

I’ve checked out Common Sense Media but find they are usually quite conservative. Ds is 12, will close his eyes on any sex bits. Is he too young?

I don't know Lucifer but I think 12 is too young for UA. Yes there's some sex, though not much. One of the characters has significant drug/drink addictions. Another is depressed. And there's a lot of violence, in an over the top, black comedy Fargo sort of way. I'm reasonably relaxed about this sort of thing, but my own tween will be seeing this one when he's firmly into his teenage years, maybe 14?

Lucifer has ratings per episode rather then the series
Some are a 12 some a 15.
UA I would say first season a 14+ but the seconded season is more subtle especially if your watching it with your child and can talk about what is going on.

DS2 is 13. He loves TUA and was 12 last year when he watched S1. It's a show that I would approach on a individual level - as PP said above there is some gratuitous violence played for comedy, especially in S1. The dysfunctional family/addiction themes are not something I was concerned about but may be something others do.

I think it largely depends what you're moving on from - DS2 had previously watched and enjoyed Stranger Things which has some horror elements, as well as the DC Arrowverse shows which have some of those themes on a more superficial level so for him it wasn't a big leap.

(DD is 11 and she wouldn't enjoy Stranger Things or TUA atm - it really varies child to child)

I'm currently watching Lucifer with 16yo DS1 (I've already seen S1-3). DS1 likes it but a lot of it (the theology side) would probably go over DS2's head atm and I think he'll enjoy it more in a couple of years. I find it to be more adult than TUA, more blasé about sex, especially casual sex, and because it's a crime procedural there's at least one murder in every episode. I would probably hold off tbh.

Actually I've just remembered that I watched S1 of TUA with DS1 first, and then we rewatched it with DS2. So I had seen it before deciding that it was something he would enjoy.
