TLC's newest series Meet the Putmans follows an American family who does things a little differently —nobody leaves. ... Instead, you live with your family forever. The network's website describes it as, “Three Generations, 10 adults, 15 kids; 25 people. ALL living under one roof, sharing everything.”
Explanation:
Bill and Barb Putman believe a strong family bond can occur only if everyone stays together -- literally. The Putmans head a household where three generations live in the same house and share everything from one bank account to six bedrooms and only two bathrooms. In addition to Bill and Barb, the supersized group includes their four adult children and their spouses, and (for now) 15 grandchildren. On this TLC series viewers see the family share their ups, downs, and most intimate thoughts as they live the American dream on their own terms.
