These TV Characters Are Way Too Poor To Afford Their Lavish Lifestyles

Adam Braverman – Parenthood

Parenthood pleased audiences for its no-holds-barred approach to the intricacies of everyday family life. For the most part, it felt believable. Sure, some things were a little dramatic, but we dug it. However, as much as we loved it, one element didn’t feel genuine. Adam and Kristina had a lot going on, especially in the fourth season when they put Haddie through college while supporting a child with special needs and covering Kristina’s astronomical medical bills. Of course, Adam had a great job that brought in a very good wage, but when you factor all of these expenses in, it would never have worked in real life.
