Oedipus Complex: Difference between revisions

* Jim Profit, on ''[[Profit]]'', takes this archetype to the logical extreme --by murdering his father and having sex with his (step)mother.

* Possibly Matt McNamera on ''[[Nip Tuck|Nip/Tuck]].''

** It's lampshaded by the captured [[Manipulative Bastard|Angelus]]: "Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hmm. There should be a play." Of course this taunt is clearly meant for viewers; Connor was raised in another dimension and has no idea what he's referencing, and in any case from his perspective has no reason to see Cordelia as someone maternal.

* In a rare maternal case, in ''[[Two and A Half Men]]'' Charlie and Alan loathe [[Evil Matriarch|their mother, Evelyn]]. Although not shown or implied to hate their father(s), considering how many husbands she went through (at least four) during their childhood, it's not likely that they'd actually care about him/them, either.
