When your kids are older there's "Phineas and Ferb" and "Gravity Falls" which are both good enough to be watched without kids.

Phineas and Ferb was actually NOT written with kids directly in mind, and as a comfortable pop culture medium between the tame-over-time Simpsons and raunchier Family Guy and South Park. A mostly wholesome, wacky and chaotic series where the good guys always win and usually spectacularly. Phineas and Ferb never really learn anything but the other characters do.

I would say Gravity Falls much more so than Phineas and Ferb. The latter doesn't have much of a series-long story arc, whereas the former very much does have one.

Craig of the Creek was also pretty good, though I don't think it has a wider arc (I am not entirely certain though.)
