Stranger Things, Friday Night Lights, The Queen’s Gambit, His Dark Materials... What next to watch with 14 year old son?

We have watched all the above series and loved them, but where do we go from here? I am watching with my 14 year old son. He doesn’t want anything too adult, so not too much romance or violence etc. Preferably a good story about realistic characters.

We have Netflix and Amazon Prime. I have been Googling endlessly and getting nowhere.

We’d be very grateful for some recommendations!

Hannah? Violence about the same as Stranger Things probably, but while ago I watched it....

OohKittens · 14/12/2020 20:51

The A list (series on netflix series 2 is coming next year)

Roystonv · 14/12/2020 21:13

Ghosts?

BlueThistles · 14/12/2020 21:18

PeakyBlinders

BlueThistles · 14/12/2020 21:19

OOhh not Peaky Blinders then... it's violent .. sorry 😳

CalmConfident · 14/12/2020 21:22

Easy! Cobra Kai.

It is badged 15 but we have been happy to watch with ds14 & ds12. Watch the original karate kid first .

We have all loved it !

Cobra Kai was phenomenal ... a real gem.. credit to all concerned... 🎉

GrouchyKiwi · 14/12/2020 21:37

Voltron! It's as good as I remember the 80s version being (which isn't good, in case you're wondering). We watch it as a family, though my children are a lot younger than 14, and DH and I love it.

The Mandalorian, if you have Disney+.

Agents of Shield. (I think this is on Prime. It's also on Disney+)

I loved Friday Night Lights so much.

I came to suggest Ghosts too (iPlayer).

crumpet · 14/12/2020 22:27

Parks & Recreation might be worth a whirl

PlanDeRaccordement · 14/12/2020 22:28

The Tudors
Punisher (note it is violent)

FindHungrySamurai · 14/12/2020 22:29

Ghosts
The Good Place?

Watching Cobra Kai right now. It's fab!

Oystercatcher2 · 16/12/2020 18:02

Thanks so much for your replies. We’d never heard of Cobra Kai, but have started watching it and are enjoying it a lot. I wish they’d make more things like Friday Nights and Cobra Kai! So glad I asked on here. Thank you!

Schitts creek. You won’t regret it!

Campervan69 · 18/12/2020 22:43

Parks and Recreation
Ghosts
Fargo

I second Schitts creek. Once you get past the first episode or so it is really good.
