 I highly recommend Bonus Family on Netflix.  It is a Swedish series about step life. I love it. Only problem is it has subtitles so if you look away for a moment you miss everything. I have to pause it to answer a text message.

Great show & great characters.

Ha!  I saw the term Quarantine and thought that was the title of the Swedish series about step life.  I was going to comment on what a highly accurate term to describe step-life.  Quarantine.  Don't we all use the terms servant, lackey, unpaid nanny, scapegoatee, and such sometimes to describe our lives.  Quarantine is even more spot on--don't we all feel like we are in a sort of imposed isolation?

BUT, then I realized the actual title was Bonus Family.  I like Quarantine better.

I'm into the latest season now. I swear the writers read this site for ideas.  It's touched on all of them so far.  And it's always interesting.  At least the couples generally come around to see other POVs, but that's tv!

Lisa is the worst...I feel sorry for her husband, and when Will and Lo's grandfather dies and she thinks her kids are entitled to the a trust fund like his.  Ugh, my parents are going to have to put money in an account for my bios cuz the skids are not getting a dime from my parents!
