There’s quite a few BBC kids series I enjoyed with mine (when they thankfully got past the Tweenies/ Teletubbies stage!). Standouts were The Sparticle Mysteries and Sarah Jane Chronicles (Dr Who spinoff). Shaun the Sheep and Wallace and Gromit still get dug out occasionally.

And The Merlin TV series which is probably an excellent example of a successful show aimed at both kids and adults.

And I agree about Sean Bean😉
