I'm going to have to go with King of Queens, mostly because they don't have kids. Couple changes...we BOTH like to eat and it's my husband's dad that's the crazy old man!

Yes, my mother's sister...they got together a couple of years after my mom died...still weird since she looks JUST like my mom...

So I've got "aunt mom," "cousin sister" and "second cousin nephews"

Um, yeah!!! My family is out of Arkansas and Georgia. My mind kinda went the same direction.

Glad to hear it is not by "blood" at least.

My mother and her younger sister, and my father and his older brother-married in a double wedding ceremony. Two brothers wed two sisters...however, both sets are divorced now.

My cousin from my aunt/uncle's marriage, genetically speaking, is as close to me biologically as a full sibling would be-because of that. We share the same two sets of grandparents, etc.

So, he is my cousin, but if there were ever a need for a blood marrow transplant, or anything along those lines, we would be just as good of a match as a sibling.

What about that old show "Alice" anybody remember that? Growing up was a lot like with a little bit of Roseanne thrown in. Just because my parents divorced, I lived with my mom and I remember the people she worked with were a lot like family to me, like in Alice. Roseanne, well just a lot of how family how they acted and got along, etc..........

In Everybody Loves Raymond, my mil has some "Marie" traits, but all in all, she is a very good mil and I consider myself lucky because I know there are worse ones out there for sure! Infact I sometimes feel closer to her than my very own mother.

All-in-The-Family, Archie reminded me of my grandfather and Edith reminded my husband of his grandmother.

Well there is my little "walk" down "memory lane".....................

My Mom's younger twin Sisters married brothers. One couple divorced though and she remarried. I dated her new hubbies younger brother for a couple of years. Then when my cousin from the set that didn't divorce got married, I dated his brother for a while too. lol! Did y'all follow that?
