2009 All in the Family

Family relationships, from 'found families' to family rivalries, this is an exploration of the highs and lows of what it means to be family, by blood or by choice, both for the happy families and the dysfunctional ones. So bring on vids about what Petunia or Dursley thinks about Harry, what it's like to have a Spy Daddy, or how family is really spelled "TEAM", along with the vids about brothers & brothers, brothers & sisters, sisters & sisters, creators & creations. It's family in its diverse forms. VJ: rache

Team can mean: friends, lovers, and family.

The families of season one Heroes. It leans heavily on the adage "dysfunctional families are interesting."

Hey! A multi-media vid about families. There's no way I could resist. From the vidder: In memory of Jenny. Made to give my sister-in-law hope while also trying to comfort her in a fight against terrible odds.
