== Basic Nuclear Family ==
=== Anime
* See ''[[My Neighbors the Yamadas]]'' for the Japanese version.
Line 25:
* In ''[[The Phantom Tollbooth]]'', the main character visits Digitopolis, the land of numbers, and tries to find a way to Infinity. After giving up, he encounters half a boy, cut right down the middle (the other half just ''not there''). Turns out he's the .58 child in 2.58 children for the average family—luckily the average went up a bit, because it was painful being only .47. Fortunately, the average family also has 1.3 automobiles, and since he's the only one who can drive three-tenths of a car, he gets to use it all the time.
=== Live
* ''[[Everybody Loves Raymond]]''
* ''[[8 Simple Rules]]''
* ''[[2point4 children]]''; they named the series after it.
* ''[[The George Lopez Show]]''
* ''[[The Addams Family]]'' is an inversion of the Nuclear Family.{{context}}
=== Toys ===
Line 81:
* [[Summer Wars]] features the exploits of an extended family (and one love interest) over the course of a few days trying to stop a viral social networking disaster from causing IRL mayhem.
===
* In ''[[PS238]]'', The Nuclear Family is a superhero team which is also an extended family. Despite their "Nuclear" moniker their power set varies from [[Gadgeteer Genius]] to at least one [[Flying Brick]]. Student Susie Fusion is the child of one of its members, {{spoiler|and Julie Fincher ("84") is the daughter of a [[Muggles|non-superpowered offshoot]], who doesn't get along well with his superpowered cousins.}}
