If you've seen way too much CoComelon, we've got you.

TV brings people together, but sometimes it can be a little bit tricky to find something that everyone can enjoy.

Fox

So, we asked members of the BuzzFeed Community to tell us the TV shows that are perfectly suitable for kids, but also really entertaining for adults. Here's what they said.

1. Horrible Histories

BBC

"I rewatched it when I was in uni (as I had run out of sitcoms to watch) and I fell in love with it again! It's full of references only adults would get, which are bloody hilarious, is educational, and has songs that make it so uplifting and feel good!"

2. DuckTales

Buena Vista Television

"That show is SO great, especially the Della Duck arc!!!!"

—erzascarletisbestgirl

"I didn't think the remake would be good, but I love it just as much as the original. I'm 18 and I always watch it with my 9-year-old sister. It's a great show!"

4. Steven Universe

Cartoon Network

"It’s a kids show but people of all ages can relate to it. It’s entertaining and very heartwarming. It touches on LGBTQ+ relationships, mental health, and emotions, among other things."

5. Gravity Falls

Disney Channel

"It made more sense to me after I had grown up."

—elyonrinaldi06

"It's a great show for all ages. It's colourful and humourous with an overarching mystery that keeps you guessing. The main characters are three-dimensional, the villains are genuinely scary, and the themes are mature yet relatable to any age demographic."

6. Little Lunch

Netflix

"My kids love it and so do I! It's a mockumentary-style show detailing the lives of Australian primary school students during their break-time. It's The Office for kids and it is hilarious!"

Cartoon Network / Nick Toons

10. Bluey

ABC Kids

"It's for really little ones, but I have laughed out loud at almost every episode. I recommend it to any parent getting sick of watching the same cartoons. I think I may like it better than my child."

13. Rugrats

Nickelodeon

"My husband and I are peak '90s Nickelodeon kids, so we've been rewatching all the old shows with our 4-year-old. We get a lot of the adult jokes we didn't get as kids, and our son likes it too."

14. Regular Show

Cartoon Network

"I know it’s a few years old but I’m rewatching it and I always get a laugh out of the weird plots and the main characters’ stupidity."

—aztecwater

15. Animaniacs
