Getting My Own Room Plot is when a person wants their very own room. Often seen in a family setting in which one of the children has to share a room with either an Annoying Younger Sibling or a Big Brother Bully and wanting their own room to get as far away from them. Though, being part of a large family with zero privacy will have the same effect. In another case, bickering roommates would end up getting tired of living with each other with one of them wanting to move out. Especially in shows where Status Quo Is God, expect the person to actually get their own room or place but suffer a Be Careful What You Wish For situation; since they were so used to the people around them they end up feeling lonely or even scared. When that happens, expect them to go right back to their original room arrangement. In shows that don't care that much about their status quo however, the change is more likely to be permanent. |

Good Luck Charlie deals with this twice. In "All Fall Down", Gabe tries to find a new room for himself in the Duncan family house, since youngest sibling Toby is now sleeping in his room. He eventually finds a place in the attic, but his new room is short-lived when the Brazilian termites that Bob brought home reproduce and tear the house apart. In "Driving Mrs. Dabney", on Teddy's 16th birthday, P.J., Gabe, and Charlie sing a rap song for Teddy, and at one point in the song, Gabe mentions that when Teddy moves out in the next few years, he's going to move into her bedroom. |

Full House In the first episode, it's revealed that DJ originally had her own room, but her room was given to Uncle Jesse and she was moved in with Stephanie. DJ was so unhappy with the new arrangement she tried to move into the garage. A later episode has DJ wanting her own room after dealing with Stephanie's snooping one too many times. DJ ends up getting the approval of Danny and moving into Michelle's room, while Michelle moves in with Stephanie, who was against the move since she was afraid she and DJ would drift apart. |

In the F is for Family episode "The Liar's Club", Kevin moves out of the room he shared with Bill and starts living in the basement. The main motive behind this was he was annoyed by Bill touching his stuff, waking him up at 5 A.M. while getting ready for his morning paper route, and walking in on him masturbating. Unlike most examples of this trope, both Kevin and Bill are happy with having their own private rooms and the former has stayed in the basement since. | |

Jacob Two-Two: The first episode, "Jacob Two Two vs. the Hooded Fang", has this as a subplot; the family has just moved to their house in Montreal, and Jacob has to share a room here with his annoying brother Noah. He convinces his parents to give him the attic as his room if he can prove he's able to spend a night there without getting scared. By the end of the episode, he succeeds, and the attic thus becomes his room for the remainder of the series. | |

A variation occurs at the beginning of Peter Pan when Mr. Darling decides that Wendy is old enough to have her own room instead of sleeping in the nursery with her two younger brothers. Wendy doesn't want this, because the nursery represents childhood and she doesn't want to grow up — this is a main reason why she flies away with Peter Pan that night. In the end, her father changes his mind and lets her stay in the nursery a while longer. | |

For a majority of Kaguya-sama: Love Is War, Shirogane and his little sister Kei share a bedroom with a curtain splitting it down the middle for privacy since their apartment only has 2 bedrooms (their father doesn't even have a room of his own and instead sleeps in the main living area due to the other room being used as Shirogane's study room). As a result, Kei gets really excited at the thought of finally having her own room when their father informs them that they're going to move to a bigger apartment after a fan of his YouTube streams tries to stalk him. | |

The Loud House Inverted for Lisa in "Room with a Feud." When Lisa comes up for alternate roommate arrangements for the siblings, she is the only one with her own room. Lincoln accuses her of rigging the result so she could have her own room but Lisa actually prefers a roommate since it gives her an already available test subject. In "Garage Banned," Lori ends up getting fed up with the chaotic nature of her younger siblings and demands her own room. While the younger Louds don't like the idea, Lori is given her own room in the Louds' garage. Unfortunately, the situation isn't ideal for Lori because not only is it boring, but during the night, she is unable to sleep because she is too scared. She then spends the rest of the episode trying to get back to her room but is unintentionally foiled by her siblings. She does move back after finally admitting she misses them. A variation occurs in "The Mad Scientist." Lisa gets invited to a science institute to get away from her crazy household so she could be able to finish her work. She is then offered a permanent stay in the institute. While her family is against it since she is only 4 years old, she is able to convince them to let her stay since she assumes she has a low family attachment. Lisa soon finds out it wasn't all that great and actually starts missing her family. |

In The Brady Bunch episode "Our Son, the Man", Greg decides he wants his own bedroom, now that he's in high school and is too mature to share one with his two little brothers. He manages to take over his father's den, but he is back to the shared bedroom by the end of the episode. Ironically, Greg did get his own room two seasons later, in the attic, in the episode "A Room at the Top", though his oldest sister Marcia (who also shared her room with two younger ones) also tried to claim it. There was an infamous continuity error here since, in the earlier episode, the attic was ruled out as a bedroom for having too low a ceiling. | |

Big City Greens: In the b-plot of "Country Side" after the Greens have moved back to the country with Remy coming for an extended stay, Tilly is bothered by the boys' antics every morning, and attempts to find a different place to sleep. She first tries Bill's closet, then under the sink in Nancy's trailer. When Nancy suggests an empty room in the house, Tilly admits while she does want to get a new room, she's afraid to sleep alone because she had been sleeping with a roommate every night since her birth. Nancy reassures her that her family will always be around, and the episode ends with Tilly settling into her own bedroom across from the boys' room. | |

Home Improvement also has two separate episodes. One episode has Brad successfully lobby Tim and Jill to give him his own room, forcing Randy and Mark to share a room. This did cause some problems for Randy since he felt Brad was leaving him behind. Hilariously, Brad finds out having his own room wasn't all that great since it meant he was expected to take on more responsibilities. He and Randy actually bond a little bit over the fact that Brad is now doing his own laundry. Another episode has Tim build Randy his new room in the basement. Unfortunately, he wasn't prepared for the strange noises in the night and slept in the living room in fright. Thankfully, Tim was able to ease him back to the basement. |

One side plot in the Ramona Quimby book Ramona the Brave is about the titular character getting a new bedroom for 6 months. She had previously shared a room with her older sister Beezus, but a new room is added to the family's house and from then on the girls alternate in it every 6 months, with first Ramona sleeping in the new room while Beezus stays in the old one, then vice-versa. In the last book of the series, Ramona’s World, however, Ramona and Beezus go back to sharing their old room while their new baby sister Roberta gets the second room. | |

After starting high school, Maho from Wandering Son requests her own room from her younger sibling. Her parents don't have the room, so they remove the bunk-beds and instead put a curtain between Nitori's half and Maho's half of the room. | |

Sticky Dilly Buns sets up one of these plots early on when Ruby Larose arrives in the city and is obliged to share a room and a bed with her older sister Amber. She naturally wishes she could get a place of her own, and this is part of her motivation in her subsequent search for employment. Once she starts earning money she is presumably in a position to start looking, and with both Amber and their other roommate, the (very) gay Dillon, in increasingly settled relationships, sharing their rooms must be increasingly complicated, but nothing happens in this regard before the strip ends, and the plot point ultimately goes nowhere much. | |

Gerald from Hey Arnold! ends up moving into Arnold's grandpa's boarding house after being tired of dealing with both an Annoying Younger Sibling and Big Brother Bully and feeling shafted as the middle child. It wasn't as good as he thought since he was now on his own and had to take care of himself. | |

In Gravity Falls episode "Carpet Diem", Dipper and Mabel decide they don't want to share the attic bedroom anymore and try to win a room containing a body-swapping carpet that creates even more confusion. In the end, however, both twins change their minds and decide to again share the attic bedroom, with Dipper giving the room to Soos to replace the awful engine room he tried to sleep in. | |
