I just watched Lois vs. Evil...it's a great first season ep, really enjoyed it, of course. But what struck me as odd was the financial deficit the family was suddenly thrust into after Lois lost her job. Now, she was a store clerk who worked, as she stated, just 38 hours per week--legally part time. Hal, on the other hand, we assume works full-time, at least 40 hours per week, at a dedicated office job (which we find out he hates in Hal Quits). Wouldn't Hal be making much more money than Lois in the first place anyway?
Granted, the family is "poor" to begin with, and taking Lois' check out of the income might hurt a bit, but would it really be as drastic as it is portrayed?
I was thinking about that when comparing it to the Reese Joins the Army series when Hal and Lois were fired. You know, Lois has sure been fired from the same position a lot, hasn't she?
