I'm foregoing the obvious choice of groovy parents Carol and Mike Brady in favor of the real heat (and meat) of this show. These two wild things were the real deal. How could you wear matching bowling shirts and not be in love?
Lovey and Thurston Howell, III, Gilligan's Island
Who didn't love this rich, daft couple? Their affection for each other was genuine through thick and thin. Two heads (and hearts) are better than one. Which is a good thing, because their collective IQ may have been in the high double digits.
Maddie and David, Moonlighting
So wrong for each other, but it felt so right. Best small-screen chemistry of the 80s. Remember the soft focus that was for Cybil Sheperd only? Divatabulous!
Edith and Archie Bunker, All in the Family
This was true love. Who else could live with either of these two? So sad when Edith died. Those were the days.
Weezy and George Jefferson, The Jeffersons
George probably could have wooed some young floozy from the dry cleaning counter with promises of a "deeee-luxe apartment in the sky," but he only had eyes for his Weezy. Kudos to him.
Laura and Luke, General Hospital
The American royal wedding. Who can forget the puffy shoulders on that awful dress? Worth skipping school to see.
Carrie Bradshaw and "Big"/John, Sex and the City
Sometimes, love gets in the way of what's best for you. And when heartbreak happens, your girlfriends will take you shopping.
Susan and George, Seinfeld
The most bizarre, twisted relationship in the history of prime time. Till death do us part, or not.
Rachel and Ross, Friends
As annoying apart as they were together. And yes, Rachel, you WERE on a break.
