This trope, like how the Addams Family does it, has always really bothered and confused me. Like if the characters followed it to it's logical conclusion, it wouldn't make any sense at all, and I just can't get over that. I don't know how to explain what's logically wrong with it, I wish someone would like write a tvtropes page about it

Isn't that the whole thing with shows like The Addams Family? You're not supposed to think that deeply about them or attempt to apply logic. The illogic lends to the humor.

Yeah that's definitely my problem, I just can't seem to resist overthinking it 😅

I understand! I didn't intend to throw shade on you for that. My husband is the same way lol
