Line 71:
* In ''[[That '70s Show]]'', Red Forman's mother, Bernice is incredibly obnoxious and rude to everyone, but especially to her daughter-in-law, Kitty. Kitty's own mother is not much better - however, she upsets Kitty more than Red.
* Of the four main adult characters from ''[[Yes, Dear]]'', three of them have an in-law for each: Don (Kim and Christine's father) for Greg, Jenny (Kim and Christine's mother) for Jimmy, and Natalie (Greg's mother) for Kim. Christine doesn't have this problem, though. On the other hand, considering the tension that exists between brothers-in-law Greg and Jimmy, much of the show has this trope as its premise.
* In ''[[The Honeymooners]]'', Ralph dreads the visits of his mother-in-law, because she constantly implies that Alice could've done better than him. Norton doesn't get along with his either, the two of them getting into a dispute over whose mother-in-law was nastier. Unfortunately for Norton, Trixie hears them, and it seems she had no idea he felt that way...
* ''[[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers]]'': Master Vile (Rita's dad) and Lord Zedd don't get along. Hilariously.
** Lord Zeddisn't too fond of Rito Revolto (Rita's brother) either.
Line 81:
* In ''[[Life with Derek]]'', Nora's mother Felicia liked her first husband just fine, but doesn't care at all for her current husband George, mostly because she doesn't believe in divorce.
* An unusual variant occurs on ''[[Blossom]]'' between her father Nick Russo and her maternal grandfather Buzz Richman. Buzz doesn't really have anything against Nick, but Nick resents him for coming to the Russo house and sponging off them when he visits. The fact that Buzz's daughter abandoned Nick and the kids doesn't exactly help matters.
