We all grew up watching our beloved television families, from the Ricardos to the Cunninghams to the Keatons.  But some families were just so cool we wouldn't mind joining them, even if it were just for Thanksgiving dinner.  Here, we give you 7 TV families we'd love to be a part of.


7.  The Seavers (Growing Pains)


The Seavers


Why?


A truly loving couple who support each other and their kids?  AND a hot older brother?  Sign us up!


Who We'd Replace


Chrissy Seaver, who was an annoying last-ditch attempt to inject a little cuteness into the family.  It didn't work.


6.  The Addams (The Addams Family)


The Addams


Why?


They're creepy, and they're kooky!  Mysterious and spooky!  They're also strong individuals with a tremendous zest for life.


Who We'd Replace


Cousin Itt.  He brings nothing to the table but hairballs.


5.  The Bradys (The Brady Bunch)


The Bradys


Why?


There's something endearing about the saccharine-sweet blended family life of the Bradys.  Throw in a sassy housekeeper, and you got yourself a winner.


Who We'd Replace


Jan, if only to stop the constant "Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!"  What a wet blanket, sheesh!


4.  The Simpsons (The Simpsons)


The Simpsons


Why?


Sure, you'd have a dimwitted, borderline-alcoholic father and a repressed mother, but you'd sure have fun (traveling the world, hobnobbing with celebrities, defying the laws of physics). 


Who We'd Replace


Sorry, Lisa, but you can be a pill sometimes.  We're just sayin'.


3.  The Bluths (Arrested Development)


The Bluths


Why?


They've had their scrapes with the law, but the Bluths are hilarious and maudlin (Lucille), loyal and outspoken.  We'd watch GOB perform his tricks (excuse us, illusions) any day.


Who We'd Replace


Maeby Bluth.  As a cynical teen, she's the least funny, and we want the funny!


2.  The Stephens (Bewitched)


The Stephens


Why?


Your mom is magical.  How cool is that?!


Who We'd Replace


Dick Sargent, for obvious reasons.


1.  The Huxtables (The Cosby Show)


The Huxtables


Why?


Cool, together mom.  A dad with unlimited access to pudding pops.  Awesome dance routines.  The Huxtables are clearly the reigning champ of TV families.


Who We'd Replace


Heathcliff.  Just kidding.  We'd of course replace Vanessa, who whined and complained through 8 seasons.

Haha yes I always did want my house to be more like the Huxtable house growing up.
