Best/favorite TV couple?
 

OK, over 70 responses to favorite villain, seems like a fun topic that lots of folks had an opinion about so....who is your favorite TV couple? Now, I mean characters...not George and Gracie Burns for example (although Lucy and Ricky Richardo would count as they played themselves as roles). This can be anyone from David Addison (Bruce Willis) & Maddie Hayes (Cybill Shepherd) from Moonlighting to Minnie & Mickey Mouse. I'm curious...who are your favorites?

Ralph & Alice Kramden :D

Ah, I wondered if someone would pick the Honeymooners...classic!

This is a absolute classic, hilarious !
 

Great stuff...Gleason was actually a great pool player in real life, it was a passion of his!

The Hustler , another all time great film !

I would have to rate Oscar Madison and Felix Unger as one of the favorite tv PAIR since we know they were not a couple, despite being known as the Odd Couple.

peter and lois griffin.

Archie and Edith

George and Weesie

Carrie & Mr. Big

Gomez & "Tish"

Fred and Wilma.

Fred and Ethel

Tony and Carm

Steve and Susan from Coupling (UK version).

Rob and Laura Petrie (Dick Van Dyke Show)

You have no shame.

Also Bill Cosby and Phylicia Rashad

I'd call them a couple...besides, there are those who think that perhaps today, they might be presented slightly differently. In any event, a good choice.

Dr. Frasier and Dr. Lilith Crane "Cheers"

Homer and Marge

I second this vote!!!!! But can I have Mr. Big?

Oh boy.











The window.

The Costanza's---- Frank and Estelle

The Seinfelds----Morty and Helen

Everyone Loves Raymond- --Frank and Marie Barone

homer and marge

gray and mcdreamy

oh yeah,

shane and paige from l word - so hot!

Good call.

Another one for me - Susan and Mike in Desperate Housewives.

This is enough to make Dracula wish he were alive.

Buffymommy...no love for Angel & Buffy?

I have a thing for Chris Noth too. Buffy and Angel are #2.

"Mark and Ellen Craig"
 

Married in real life, William Daniels and Bonnie Bartlett's portrayals of Dr. and Mrs. Mark (Ellen) Craig on 'St. Elsewhere' were achingly poignant, funny and 'real'...

The agony involved upon the scripted death of their son Stephen, and effect on their marriage on the show, was as gripping as anything I've ever seen on TV. Both won Emmy's for their work on what I believe, along with "Homicide", was the best show ever on TV.

Good pick...I only saw the show a few times but enjoyed it...Homicide is in my top 20, another show ahead of it's time.

Mother-Daughter couple - Lorelai and Rory Gilmore
Friends couple - Denny Crane and Alan Shore
Friends couple - Hawkeye and Trapper/Honeycutt
Karen and Mack McKenzie
JR and Sue Ellen - They were the Honeymooners in a drama.

Daniel J Travanti and Veronica Hamel from Hill Street Blues and can i get an e for effort with James Carvel and Mary Matlin.:D

Felix and Oscar are my absolute favorite.
Honorable mention goes to:
Cliff and Claire (I think that was her name) Huxtable
Judge Harry Stone & Marjorie Armstrong from night court

Again, some interesting picks...mine are:
1) Xena & Gabrielle
2) Buffy & Spike
3) Willow & Tara
4) Buffy & Angel
5) Cordy & Angel
6) Nikita & Michael
7) Veronica & Logan
8) Nick & Janette
9) Spike & Drucilla
10) Piper & Leo
11) Max & Logan
12) Fred & Wesley

Oh I forgot,
Kevin Arnold and Winny Cooper (from the Wonder Years)

I loved that show.

Yep, saw a few episodes and liked it!

St. Elsewhere was indeed a TV treasure, I must have known but now had forgotten that the Craig's were real life partners.

Another one from that time period that I thought was terrific was Hill Street Blues. I see that Mermaid has nominated Daniel J Travanti and Veronica Hamel for favorite couple, and deservedly so.
Like the sargeant would say every morning "let's be careful out there."

two very good ones ! i had a big crush on veronica hamel.:o

Steve, correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Denzel Washington on St. Elswhere when he started out?

Add to this list of dysfunctional couples is Roseanne Barr and John Goodman in Rosanne :o
