* Stephen Poliakoff's BBC miniseries ''Shooting the Past'' has the massive Fallon Photo Collection stored in a BigFancyHouse and cared for by five eccentric curators. None of them are related, but they've all been doing this for so long that they regard each other this way. Chief curator Oswald Bates (Creator/TimothySpall) says they're liable to be regarded as "pathetic dusty people who just stepped out of an [[Creator/EalingStudios Ealing comedy]] with Margaret Rutherford."

* The Kawai family from the ''Manga/PrettySammy'' series (AlternateUniverse #276 of the ''Anime/TenchiMuyo'' multiverse). Her parents were so insane but easygoing, she didn't need ParentalAbandonment to have the freedom to run around fighting monsters.

* The Verres family of ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', consisting of two shapeshifters (One an adopted [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent weresquirrel]] with enormous magical power, the other a {{ChivalrousPervert}}ed MadScientist who causes oodles of GenderBending.) is the most noticeable example. Far more subtly is the Dunkel household, which is fairly normal other than having an OppositeSexClone of the OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent Elliot, and the fact that the parents show almost no concern (compared to most people) when their son [[GenderBender randomly changes sex]] or breaks into a government installation and brings back a [[OppositeSexClone said mysterious twin sister.]] They just give a lecture then offer their kids brownies. It gets really, really weird after a while.
-->'''Dan''': I also liked that reasoning because it gave me the idea for this comic, and I love writing scenes like this. There's a certain madness to the Dunkel household that, in my opinion, makes the Verres household look relatively sane. It's enough that I feel I must now assure you, the audience, that there are no questionable ingredients in Mrs. Dunkel's brownies.

* ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'': Once Dipper and Mabel come to stay with Stan, their portion of the Pines family starts to evolve into one of these. First there's [[BadassGrandpa Badass and]] [[CoolUncle Cool Grunkle]] [[HonestJohnsDealership Stan]], then PolarOppositeTwins (who are best friends all the same) [[AdorablyPrecociousChild Dipper]] and [[FunPersonified Mabel]]. Then [[KindheartedSimpleton Soos]], who is gradually revealed to [[spoiler: idolize Stan as a father figure, and is implied to see the twins as his own siblings.]] And by the end, they are all implied to feel likewise about him, especially Stan. Then there's [[CoolBigSis Wendy]], who could easily be considered far more than an employee and friend after [[TrueCompanions all the adventures they've been on together]]. This household, which already [[ZigzaggedTrope zigzagged]] the trope a bit, teeters much farther toward a DysfunctionalFamily littered with PoorCommunicationKills upon the [[spoiler: [[AnotherDimension return of ]][[BadassBookworm Ford]] [[MadScientist Pines,]] ]]but it's heavily implied to go back to being a Quirky Household after the finale, when [[spoiler: Stan and Ford make up and Soos and [[CoolOldLady Abue]][[ShipTease lita]] move in to the Mystery Shack.]]

[[caption-width-right:350:That's not even counting the robot, the choir of frogs, and that Tyrannosaurus Rex they recently adopted.]]

* The Flynn-Fletcher Family from ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb''. A father who's an expert on random and obscure antiques, a mother who was once a one-hit-wonder, a semi-neurotic teenage girl who likes screaming at cheese, a pet [[EverythingsBetterWithPlatypi platypus]] who's secretly a special agent, and two brothers who do ''everything''.

* ''BeetleJuice'': The Maitland/Deitz family household is a quirky blend of a benevolent ghost couple mixed with a perky goth chick, her father and very artsy stepmother.

* Both the household of the Takamachis and the Harlaowns of ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha''.
