婆媳关系可以说是中国家庭内部人际关系中的一个传统难题。和西方人不一样，长久以来中国人喜欢一个大家庭住在一起，男人结婚之后，大多数要和父母同住，这样新来的女人（媳妇）和之前的女主人（婆婆）就会产生很多矛盾。在封建社会，婆媳关系是一种不平等的人际关系，媳妇必须听命于婆婆，婆婆也会经常刁难媳妇，让她更加听话，等这些媳妇当了婆婆，再去管教他们的媳妇，这种传统保持了几千年。不过近些年， 80年代出生的女孩们结婚成家，她们有自己的事业和主见，追求平等和独立，不喜欢盲目听从婆婆的想法，于是新的婆媳关系出现了，大家都很困惑，怎么才能更和谐地相处呢？ “婆媳剧”应运而生，这些电视剧乐观的态度和新鲜的想法，给了婆媳以及夹在中间的丈夫很多启示，大受欢迎也是理所应该的了。
The relationship between a bride and her mother-in-law is a traditional problem of interpersonal relations in Chinese families. Unlike Westerners, Chinese people have long preferred to live as large families. After a man gets married, he will often want to live with his parents, meaning that the newly arrived lady (the daughter-in-law) and the former matriarch (the mother-in-law) often have many conflicts. In feudal society, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was unequal in that the daughter-in-law had to listen to her mother-in-law, so the mother-in-law often purposely created difficulties for the daughter-in-law. When the daughter-in-law became a mother-in-law, she would do the same things to her daughter-in-law. This tradition has continued for thousands of years. But in recent years, girls born in the 1980s have started to get married, and they have their own careers and opinions. They pursue equality and independence, and they do not like to accept blindly their mother-in-laws’ opinions. Thus, new relationships between mother-in-laws and daughter-in-laws have appeared, and many people are wondering, “How can we get along more harmoniously?” Dramas about mothers and daughter-in-laws have emerged as a product of their time. The optimistic attitudes and fresh ideas of these shows inspire mother-in-laws, daughter-in-laws, and husbands alike, making them bound to be popular.
