It is one of God's blessings that children inquire about Shariah rulings and seek to understand what is permissible and impermissible. These feelings should be nurtured by teaching them what is beneficial. The content of the mentioned TV series was not clarified, but generally, children should be kept away from programs that contain impermissible things, such as looking at images of unveiled women or listening to music, or those that conflict with prayer times, or lead to watching anything forbidden. As for beneficial programs, there is no harm in them as long as they do not distract from what is more important.
