If you’re looking for some family-friendly shows that can keep all family members entertained, take a look at what Paramount+ has to offer. With a mix of new offerings and classic favorites, there’s sure to be something for every household.
Rugrats
90’s kids rejoice! Rugrats is a reboot of the 1990s classic that follows the adventures of one-year-old Tommy Pickles and his toddler playmates. The kids use their imaginations to explore their world as astronauts, miniatures, and wild animals, usually ending up in a pickle before coming together to solve the problem. While kids can enjoy the adventure, parents can enjoy the realistic display of adult problems, like fixing appliances and arguing over holidays.
The show has the original cast of voice actors reprising the child roles, lending decades of experience to the show. While the adult voices have been recast, the cast is studded with the likes of Tony Hale and Nicole Byer. Whether you grew up watching Rugrats or not, this show’s focus on adventure and teamwork will make it an instant classic for the whole family.
PAW Patrol
It seems like everywhere you go, PAW Patrol makes an appearance on clothes, food, toys, and more. Ryder is a boy who leads a team of search and rescue dogs to protect and serve their community. Each dog has a specific job, like a firefighter or aquatic rescue. With their own special vehicles and tools, the pups have to save the day by helping baby turtles safely make it to the ocean or rescuing an inflatable turkey that flew away from a Thanksgiving feast.
There’s a reason this show has broken into mainstream media and made appearances in political speeches and comedy monologues. The show sets a good example for helping others, teamwork, and problem-solving, all while keeping things interesting with fresh catastrophes to fix. Paw Patrol is a great way to encourage kiddos to be helpful that can even interest parents.
The Casagrandes
Growing up with a big family is hard enough, let alone doing it in a multigenerational home. The Casagrandes follows Ronnie Anne and her brother Bobby as they move in with grandparents, aunt and uncles, and cousins. The family must discover how to navigate life together while Ronnie Anne learns more about her family and explores life in her new home.
The Casagrandes is a Mexican American family, providing amazing representation in a children’s show. We see a family-run mercado, lucha libre, and Latin American history that influences so many interactions. This show packs a lot of action into each episode while still being a fun watch that gives great insight into diverse communities and multigenerational living.
Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under Years
Are you ready kids? Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under Years takes us back in time to see 10-year-old SpongeBob SquarePants at the Kamp Koral summer camp. The first spinoff of the 24-year behemoth SpongeBob SquarePants, Kamp Koral brings back fan-favorite characters in slightly different roles.
The voice actors you know and love reprise their roles here, making us really feel like we’re just watching a flashback of SpongeBob’s life. With the same goofy humor and slapstick comedy we’ve grown to love, this show is great for family fun that brings some nostalgia with it.
Each of these shows is streaming now on Paramount+.
