    It’s not just Home Alone for me. Almost every show I watch, I look at the places where the characters live with immense envy.

    Lord of the Rings: Man, I’d love to live in that hobbit house. That looks incredibly cozy.

    Daredevil: That is such a nice loft, and it has such great light. It’s unfair that a guy who’s blind doesn’t truly appreciate his great apartment because he can’t see.

    Futurama: Fry’s a delivery boy and he lives in a robot’s closet, and it’s still better than where I live.

    Only Murders in the Building: NYC and these guys have those kinds of amazing places? (To be fair, this is a major plot element of the 4th season)

      Pretty much any Artist Loft in the 90s.

      Bitch, you have enough room to have a softball tournament in your front room, quit complaining about how 'rough ’ the neighborhood is.

      I’ve noticed this too. In movies and TV, its not just the people that are beautiful, often times, its their material wealth too.

      Futurama was wicked funny how they introduced that. It seemed like it was gonna suck big time for fry to live in a closet sized ‘apartment’ but that ‘apartment’ had a closet that was bigger than most big ass apartments!
