Are you currently absolutely furious with your drunk sibling who has only two objectives in life (getting even drunker and cramming her hand down your boyfriend's pants)? Is your mom so passive-aggressive that she posts public apologies for your behavior on her Facebook page? Does your dad shower you with gifts, love, and affection—after walking out on your family when you were 6, and only now showing up on your doorstep with his 23-year-old girlfriend, who's too busy taking selfies to say hello?

Well, turn that frown upside down, Grumpy Gus! Because this week on TV, there are three shows featuring families waaaay more terrible than yours! Such as...

• Empire (Fox, Wed March 18, 8 pm): I'll admit I was slow to pick up on this drama about a family running a record label, because frankly, the idea sounded sah-noooozy. BUT I WAS OH SO WRONG. Empire is amazingly and hilariously over the top—kind of like a black Dynasty, or even better, a black King Lear. Patriarch Lucious Lyon (Terrence Howard) is the CEO of Empire Entertainment, a wildly successful hiphop label. However, things poop the bed after he's diagnosed with an incapacitating disease, forcing him to decide which of his three sons will inherit his kingdom. Will it be the inexperienced young buck, the shy, gay middle son, or the highly educated but EXTREMELY MENTALLY ILL oldest sibling? (Pro tip: Pick none of the above!)

Piling on more drama is his evil arch-nemesis (played by Judd Nelson [!!]), and my early vote for the winner of 2015's Emmy for best actress, Taraji P. Henson as Lucious's ex-wife Cookie. (She was sent to prison for the drug running that originally funded Empire, and now she's back for a piece of that delicious pie—and GURL? She is NOT taking ANY MESS!) If you love crazy soap operas, satirical jabs at the hiphop industry, and people angrily sweeping everything off the top of their desk (my favorite pastime), catch all the previous episodes on Hulu, Amazon Prime, or iTunes, and don't miss this week's hilariously entertaining season finale of Empire!

• Bloodline (Netflix, complete season debuting Fri March 20): Sam Shepard and Sissy Spacek are the owners of a beloved Florida Keys hotel and parents of the perfect family... wellllll, perfect except for everyone harboring a dark secret, the family's black sheep threatening to expose them all, and a dead body currently in the trunk of the car. Other than that? Just like your family! (Yeah, not so perfect.)

• Neighbors with Benefits (A&E, Sun March 22, 10 pm): First things first: "Swinging" is a great American institution, and I have nothing against it. However, it would behoove you to watch the new swingers reality show Neighbors with Benefits with a large grain of salt. Supposedly based in a Cincinnati subdivision, which just happens to house a bunch of wife-and-hubby-swapping families, the various couples get together, seduce each other, have sex, argue about the way they have sex, and then start the whole process over again. Meanwhile their poor children are screaming, "MOM!! DAD!! You're EMBARRASSING MEEEEEEEEE!"
