That’s cool! It’s the kind of project I’d love to do, but I know it wouldn’t actually get used. Aside from how kids his age haven’t really been exposed to much broadcast TV, so many shows these days are serialised as a consequence of the whole streaming phenomenon!
I lament the death of the episodic format often, because it intrinsically respects your time more. Serialised shows all have the confidence to say “hang on, it gets really good in about an hour and a half”, which is bullshit. Serialised shows know that they need to command your attention within a couple minutes, and the scripts are so much more tight and compelling as a result.
I would absolutely run my own pirate TV channel, like the pirate radio DJs of old. I just don’t have the IT or legal wherewithal to put my hand on that chopping block. But I could definitely bring the content and arrangement to an outfit doing something like that.
If you use Plex or Jellyfin you can even set up a live channel of your content for your kid. One decent solution is to use https://tunarr.com/
