For many families, The Queen's Gambit, the story of an orphaned chess genius, will be a great pick. It has gripping chess scenes — yes, you read that right — along with stunning 1950s clothes and brilliant performances. There's definitely something for the whole family.

However, for families with troubled pasts, this show may be a little uncomfortable. Beth comes from a broken family. Her mother suffers from a mental illness, and her father has seemingly abandoned them for another family. Her mother eventually takes her own life, leaving Beth alone in the world.

Later, Beth is adopted by a seemingly kind couple. However, the father turns out to be distant and cold, abandoning his wife and Beth with nothing. As Screen Rant put it, "If Beth's biological father taught her that she was a mistake and not worth loving, Allston [her adopted father] only reinforced this notion — and also taught her the danger of loving or relying on someone else." If any of these unhealthy family dynamics are triggering for you, it may be best to avoid watching this show with your parents.
