There comes a point in a household where the tinny sound of guffawing YouTubers leaking from a child’s headphones can be tolerated no more. A point when, after the possibilities of trees, nature, and industrial estate soft plays have been exhausted, it’s time for them, and you, to watch some proper kids’ television.
Below is some of the aforementioned proper kids’ television, all of it currently available to Amazon Prime subscribers.

Remember when Eugene Levy’s character walked in on Jason Biggs‘ character making sweet love to a delicious pastry in 1999’s American Pie, resulting in one of pop culture’s most iconic (and uncomfortable) father-son sex talks? Two decades later, it’s now Biggs’ turn to speak with his own on-screen teen about the birds and the bees.

The network has given a series order to The Great North, TVLine has learned, which stars Nick Offerman (Parks and Recreation) as Alaskan single father Beef Tobin, who “does his best to keep his weird bunch of kids close, especially as the artistic dreams of his only daughter, Judy, lead her away from the family fishing boat and into the glamorous world of the local mall.”

Actress Allison Mack — best known for playing Clark Kent's friend Chloe Sullivan on the TV show Smallville — has made headlines recently for her involvement in an alleged sex cult masquerading as a self-help group called Nxivm. The group, founded by a man named Keith Raniere, was first exposed in a New York Times feature last year. But then, Frank Parlato, a former spokesman for Nxivm, claimed in his blog that Allison was second in command. In fact, he stated that she’s been running a sorority within the cult called Dos, that brands women, presides over them like they’re slaves, and recruits top performers for Keith’s harem! Believe it or not, Allison admitted to the branding, and even took credit for the horrifying idea! Keep reading for more info on the 35-year-old's life now.

Actress Allison Mack — best known for playing Clark Kent's friend Chloe Sullivan on the TV show Smallville — has been arrested for her role in the alleged sex cult, Nxivm. The Daily News reported that the 35-year-old was a "recruiter" that not only lured innocent women in, but also required the slaves to engage in sexual acts with the group's leader, Keith Raniere. She also allegedly gave Raniere naked photos of the slaves. Allison — who reportedly ranked right below Raniere in the cult's hierarchy — last made headlines after she was seen chasing Raniere as cops arrested him in Mexico. The group, which was founded by Raniere, was first exposed in a New York Times feature. Back then, Frank Parlato, a former spokesman for Nxivm, claimed in his blog that Allison was second in command, which turned out to be true. In fact, he stated that she was running a sorority...

Allison Mack, who played Chloe Sullivan for 10 seasons on the Superman TV series Smallville, was arrested Friday in New York on charges of sex trafficking, sex trafficking conspiracy and forced labor conspiracy. She was indicted along with Keith Raniere, the alleged leader of a self-help program and purported pyramid scheme being investigated for operating a shadow society of female “slaves.”
Raniere and Mack each face mandatory minimum sentences of 15 years to life in prison if convicted.
According to prosecutors, Mack is credited in publicly available materials with co-creating a program called The Source, which recruited actors. Read details from Doj about the case below, but be warned: Some of it is graphic.
“As alleged in the indictment, Allison Mack recruited women to join what was purported to be a female mentorship group that was, in fact, created and led by Keith Raniere,” United States Attorney Richard P. Donoghue said today.

The Daytime Emmy nominations were announced on March 21, less than three weeks after the Oscars where “The Shape of Water” won Best Picture and Best Director, but already Guillermo Del Toro is eyeing more awards hardware. His Netflix animated series “Trollhunters” earned three Daytime Emmy bids, including Best Children’s Animated Series. As a producer of the series Del Toro would be a winner if it prevails. It would be his second Emmy in as many years.
The series follows a teenage boy who discovers a magic amulet that chooses him to become a Trollhunter who defends the world of humans and the world of trolls. It debuted its 26-episode first season in December 2016 and won six Daytime Emmys out of nine nominations in 2017. Those victories included a voice-acting prize for Kelsey Grammer and a directing award for Del Toro and Rodrigo Blaas. However, it ended up losing Best Special...

Amazon is getting ready to bring two of its more critically well-regarded TV shows back to Prime. Golden Globe winner Mozart In The Jungle and Philip K. Dick adaptation The Man In The High Castle are returning to the service next month for third and second seasons, respectively, offering up orchestral dramedy and Nazi-themed paranoia in presumably equal parts.
But if the thought of America being suddenly conquered by fascists flies too far into the realm of fantasy for your tastes, Amazon’s still got you covered. Folks with kids might want to tune into Lost In Oz, a new children’s series set in L. Frank Baum’s world of magical shoes and confidence-deficient lions. Folks without kids, on the other hand (or just ones that just really love Hollywood history cut with New Yorker angst) might check out Woody Allen’s latest, Café Society.
