What shows do old people like?
My parents are getting up in age, they're almost 70, and they've been watching the same couple shows every single day. I want to get them some DVD sets for christmas.
My mom loved watching Matlock and Golden Girls, but doesn't watch either show now, and my dad didn't like either of them particularly much.
My dad loved watching Breaking Bad, but didn't like Better Call Saul. My mom wouldn't like either of these shows. I'm not certain but I think my dad also watched NCIS years ago? I don't know.
Together, my parents watch The Mentalist, and The Rifleman, every day. They used to watch House MD together but they don't really watch it now; they liked the character drama but my mom was squeamish about the medical stuff and neither of my parents really appreciated how much lesbian sex there was in the show (they're both devout Christians, I completely understand why they wouldn't like it).
I'd love to introduce them to new shows they've never seen before; if possible, with minimal sex and vulgarity.
To be honest, I've never watched The Mentalist or The Rifleman, so I don't know exactly what those shows are like or what to recommend them based on their tastes. Most of the shows I watch are either too dark or too nerdy for them, I'd never try and push Star Trek on them.

Do old people really like this? Watching the trailer it seems like it's aimed a lot more toward millennials

No harm in trying, it's similar to The Mentalist. Otherwise try Downton Abbey, Band of Brothers, Bones, Midsomer Murders.
