Home Economics is a single-camera comedy that premiered on ABC in 2021. It stars Topher Grace, Caitlin McGee, and Jimmy Tatro.The series follows the lives of the three Hayworth siblings, who have varying levels of financial security, as they try to rebuild their close childhood relationship after growing apart over the years. They are: Tom, the eldest child. He's a novelist who wrote a best-seller, but is struggling to write a suitable follow up. This lack of productivity means his family's finances are becoming strained, which only worsens his neuroses. He's married to Marina, a lawyer, and they have three children. Sarah, the middle child. She's a child therapist who recently lost her job at the beginning of the series. As she'd dedicated her life to social work, she's always barely made ends meet and her lack of employment puts her and her family in an even more precarious situation. She's married to Denise, a teacher, and they have two children. Connor, the youngest child. He's an entrepreneur who's become fabulously wealthy thanks to savvy investing. After several years of living away from his family, he's recently moved to San Francisco to be closer to his siblings. He is divorced and has one daughter.Cancelled after 3 seasons. | |

Debt Detester: Tom in "Secret Santa Gift, $25 Limit" wants to pay off the loan Connor gave him, while Connor considers it a gift and couldn't care less if Tom paid him back or not. Eventually, Connor gets sick of Tom and rips up his checks out of spite. | |

Halloween Episode: "Box of King-Size Candy Bars, $48.99", where the Hayworths go trick or treating with their kids as The Avengers (2012). "Novel Signed by Author, $22.19", where Tom holds a book reading that takes a scary turn when he meets an obsessed fan, while the kids dress as characters from Encanto, except for Shamiah who dresses like an anime character to please her boyfriend. | |

Home Economics / int_44fc28e8 | comment |
Honor Before Reason: Sarah gets a job interview at Gretchen's absurdly expensive private school but tanks it despite needing the job and income because she can't help but speak out about how she finds such institutions absurd when there are countless poor children with no access to any education at all. When Tom receives a windfall, he's intent to use it to repay Connor as soon as possible even as Connor says there's no need and Marina points out that they have lots of urgent repairs and upkeep they need to pay for at home. Connor resorts to Loophole Abusenote loudly declaring in front of the entire family that he'll use the money to buy a washer-dryer and give away the one he has currently, which gets snapped up by Marina to help Tom out without hurting his brother's pride too much. | |

Home Economics / int_92163e88 | comment |
Locked in a Room: In "Opus Cabernet, 2015, $500", the Hayworths end up locked inside Connor's wine cellar, which used to be a panic room. They need their parents to find the combination, but the eldest Hayworths decide to hold on for a while and enjoy the peace and quiet while their kids are locked in. In "Ticket to Space, $1 Million", Tom and Marina both end up stuck in their attic, she when the desk she was moving gets stuck on the doorway, he when he falls through the roof and ends up dangling on the ceiling. In "Emergency Preparedness Kit, $129.99", a power outage disables the front gate to Connor's home, and with the manual release rusted shut, the family is unable to leave. Eventually, Connor decides to simply ram through the gate with one of his cars; the power comes on just then, but Connor's foot is already on the accelerator and doesn't stop. | |

Downplayed in that he still has a lot of money (when he shows the others how much, they remark that it's the same amount he just lost); he's actually more worried that he lost his "business mojo". | |

When Connor loses a huge amount in a botched windfarm (It was quite literally blown into the ocean), he mopes around acting like he's broke. When the family inquires how much he's got left, he reveals he's still incredibly rich and the family's sympathy instantly evaporates. | |

Company Cross References: "Box of King-Size Candy Bars, $48.99" takes advantage of the fact that ABC and Marvel share Disney as a parent company by having the Hayworths dress up as various characters from the MCU and blaring the Avengers theme at various moments. "Speeding Ticket, $180" has Sarah and Denise make an attempt at watching Bachelor In Paradise and even mention what night it runs on ABC. | |

Rich Sibling, Poor Sibling | |
Home Economics / int_ede47e3f | comment |
Rich Sibling, Poor Sibling: The show's premise is that three siblings are in different financial straits: Tom is a middle-class author married to a lawyer, his sister Sarah is a recently-fired social worker married to a teacher (poor), and their younger brother Connor is a wealthy entrepreneur. | |

Servile Snarker: Lupe, Connor's housekeeper, dishes out plenty of side eye and sly comments in response to the Hayworth's shenanigans. She also outright messes with Tom. | |

Intoxication Ensues | |
Home Economics / int_f247d841 | comment |
Intoxication Ensues: In "Mango THC Gummies, $18", Marina buys two marihuana gummies for her and Tom, but when Tom refuses his, she takes both. Turns out she took four times the recommended dose of half a gummi, and spends the rest of the episode high as a kite. | |

Altar the Speed | |
Home Economics / int_f6a9024b | comment |
Altar the Speed: Tom and Marina's wedding is postponed after the priest dies before beginning the ceremony, so they have to have the reception first while a new priest is found. By the time they do, they have ten minutes before another event needs the venue, so the ceremony has to be rushed. | |

Sitting on the Roof | |
Home Economics / int_f8a4527f | comment |
Sitting on the Roof: As kids, the Hayworths used to sit on the roof to talk about things. In "Tickets to Space, $1 Million", Tom sits on the roof of his house with Connor to talk about his decision to go into space. Tom ends up breaking through the roof and getting stuck after being told his novel may not be released due to the publisher going bankrupt. | |
