They're godlike, they're (usually) all related, and they're stuck together. Since they're so powerful that none of them can significantly hurt the others (most of the time), the plot is mostly about their sibling squabbles and Big, Screwed-Up Family moments.

Starting in Wonder Woman (1987) the Olympians became much more prominent in Wonder Woman, and much more like their mythological counterparts (previously they'd been tied to other planets and not definitively "gods"). After Ares' separate abode was destroyed they're all stuck together on Olympus and while they really do not get along they usually avoid outright war with each other. Diana herself ties in as extended family given that Ares is her maternal grandfather.

Alexei Sviridov's Tolkien parody novel, The Zwirmarillion, portrays the Valar like this and even directly calls them "our favourite comedy characters" once.

The House of the Gods, Dunmanifestin, in Discworld, to the point where priests relay "revelations" that sound a hell of a lot like the plot of a soap opera.

The Greek gods in Everworld spend most of their time lounging around Mt. Olympus either partying or getting into sudden, violent arguments with each other so strong storms and whirlwinds suddenly appear from their anger. They keep this up even as the armies of a god-eating abomination are massing outside their house.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians has hints of this going on in the background, whenever Percy deals with the Gods, who now have to live in the 21st century. For example, Hera and Zeus's marital squabbles are alluded to, Artemis and Apollo have Sibling Seniority Squabble going on, etc. The Trials of Apollo, which take place from the perspective of depowered god Apollo, mentions the myriad squabbles between the gods more frequently.

Any story of The Mighty Thor taking place in Asgard will inevitably turn into one of these, not that he is safe from the trope anywhere else either.

In The Almighty Johnsons the Norse gods are greatly reduced in power and have moved to New Zealand. They can and do die, but then the god-spirit simply moves on to another descendant. Over the years since the original migration, the descendants of the gods (who are also incarnations of the gods) have lost track of each other, in part because gods (and goddesses) don't generally like each other very much.

Hades often turns into this between runs through the Underworld, as Zagreus chats up, romances, or engages in Snark-to-Snark Combat with the various residents of the House of Hades between deaths, sometimes with the very gods who just killed him.
