Miraculous changes a lot in the later seasons. I'm saying this because while our kids were very much into the first 2 seasons, it was me and my wife who got hooked for the other 3 seasons. The first 2 seasons are also full of fillers if you want, I don't shy away from skipping them when I'm alone, but we did watch it all with our kids.

We had a good time with it. Not sure if you watched it all, I'm looking forward the next season to see how the plot unravels.

But I'll definitely check Bluey :)

That being said, I wish there was a genre tagged as "engaging for adults, fun for kids": there are a bunch of movies and shows along these lines, but they aren't tagged in any other way.

Another genre that exists but I can't find is "boring for kids but child-friendly", basically any tv show that says stuff they can't properly follow, doesn't have action scenes, but has a convoluted plot for adults. On the top of my mind I can think of Shrinking (my kids still don't understand cursing in english, only italian, so this is great), but I remember there was an even better one that I can't think of right now.

Rocky & Bullwinkle was here. Loaded with adult-friendly puns and hommages.

There are a few, it's just not highlighted, and the problem is you can determine it only after watching it. That defeats the purpose unfortunately!
