TV Our Family Will Watch
This is a list of cartoons and live-action shows that I believe everyone should have some familiarity with. It is by no means an exhaustive list and is my own personal opinions. They are in order of 'youngest to oldest'.
I should note that I can't stand shows like 'Ren and Stimpy' with their gross humor or 'Friends' which, while extremely popular, just made me gag. So you won't find either things that are crude or much in the way of modern sitcoms or reality TV on here.
I also have a list of Movies Every Kid Should See, if you are interested in that.
