I googled “Hypoculina” and the only result was this thread. I think I put a hole in the universe.
Usually it’s the primary nuclear family, not the extended, visiting family. “Hubby and I and the kids have dinner together every night now that we live in <foreign country>.”
I only see these shows a few times a year when I’m at the doctor or dentist.
I still see this almost every time when it’s a couple shopping for a house:
“He wants a small home that he can afford, she wants a large house in the trendy district where the bars are” or
“She wants a cozy, easy to maintain home so she has time to take care of their triplets; he wants a showplace to bring his clients to”
I know it’s scripted, but could they make it sound a little less like “These people haven’t spoken to each other since their wedding”?
