My son has been sent to jail and I'm planning my death to pay off a gangster.

I’m the optimistic wife of a pessimist restaurant owner. We have three children, constantly living on the brink of bankruptcy and we’re all likely neurodivergent in some way. But we’re happy and loving, and at least my husband isn’t a stupid, useless, abusive drunk like our counterpart families.

I'm now Irish and all my crazy sisters are trying to kill my husband

I live with someone who is ace at writing puzzles.
However his twin brother who is a detective has gone missing so he is impersonating him to try and solve the mystery of the disappearance.

We are now living with his sister in law (who had the idea in the first place) and her son (his nephew) who is also in on it all.

We're a family of tigers.

Oh fuck I’m a trump 😳

Watched the New BBC Agatha Christie toward zero last night. And there's a family in that not nuclear but a family

DappledThings · 03/03/2025 22:17

Multiple generations of Roman emperors. Murder, incest, exile, forced marriages and divorces at every turn.

CrushingOnRubies · 03/03/2025 22:18

So all in a country house style murder mystery

My family lost all their wealth to a fraudster accountant and had to go and live in a small town they owned. They live in the towns hotel and are friends with the mayor and his wife. Yes folks I'm part of the Rose family 😄

Me too 😁

Breaking bad guy!

Mum's been attacked and is in a coma. Mum hates Dad's girlfriend and it's mutual. Dad's GF was jogging on the same route around the same time as the attack. The GF would have had a motive, but it was someone else who did it. The attacker has been sending anonymous threats to Mum's ex-husband, who used to be married to attacker's GF. Mum had found Attacker's ex-GF's body just before Attacker thwacked Mum with a spade. Mum's ex-husband's ex-wife was the half-sister of the deceased.

Dad's GF doesn't know that he is my father. Strangely, both my parents have dark hair but I am blonde. I also have a different accent to both of them.

Mum's IRL DD is in the same programme, but is someone else's DD in it.

I'm a money obsessed control freak and was briefly in the frame for the murder of my step daughter on her wedding day. My actual daughter hates me and the whole family is dysfunctional.

TankFlyBoss · 03/03/2025 22:43

The Kennedys from vintage Neighbours!! 😁

WithASpider · 03/03/2025 22:46

I'm a Winchester! Might be a touch dangerous but there are worse families to belong to 😁

TicTac80 · 03/03/2025 22:51

Bonus!! I’m marrying Jamie Fraser (Outlander)!

IRL I’m also a nurse.

shakeitoffshakeacocktail · 03/03/2025 22:53

I live in a beautiful historic small town in Connecticut (I think) (think colourful autumns and pretty snow in winter)
The people who live here are lovely and quirky but very involved in each others lives and town activities.
My mum is coffee obsessed, we eat at the diner all the time, except for Friday night dinners at my grandparents house, which is a literal mansion

Wishyouwerehere50 · 03/03/2025 22:54

I'm a predator and Chris Hanson has just come out of the cupboard to confront me after I turned up at the house of what I thought was a 15 year old I was talking to online.

' You can see how it looks' say Hanson after I explain ' I knew it was a decoy and I just turned up to tell her it wasn't legal for a 49 year old married father to turn up on the premise of action with a 15 year old.'

Hanson proceeds to inform me I'm being secretly filmed and going to feature as a free episode on his streaming channel.

I used to be a Nun but fell for the convent Doctor who is actually very close to being God himself.I am now a nurse myself.

We have 4 children between us - 2 adopted and all perfect children. Despite neither of us parents being at home much due to the need for our combined medical expertise the children and home are impeccable and we end each day with hugs , laughs and cocoa .

Edited

You're me!

The Virdees in Virdee... fearing for my life now.

shakeitoffshakeacocktail · 03/03/2025 22:56

Couldn't help doing one more!

My mum is lovely and very close with my 'aunty' my dad is a bit odd, obsessive over odd things like calculators and his shed. My brothers are always pranking each other and them or my dad are always getting the family into crazy situations.
I've come round for dinner but the door bells just rung, I think I know who it is!!

NickMarlow · 03/03/2025 22:56

Oh good Lord I have a talking dog. A lovely blended family and a stressed and stressful neighbour, but I reckon the talking dog is the main point.

Jagsy · 03/03/2025 22:56

I’m part of the Pearsons in This is us 😄

I'm married to a doctor. It's 1970 ish and we both work in Poplar, in the medical profession. I used to be a nun!

👋 oh well if you’re married to Dr Turner I will have Cyril!

EveryDayisFriday · 03/03/2025 22:57

Oh no, I've just watched the Ruby Franke documentary on Disney+.
I have a Mormon abusive Mother, a brainwashed absent Dad and abused Siblings.
