Bumpy Roads Couldn’t Hinder These 39 Best TV Couples

Love can come from anywhere at any time. Claire, a time-traveling nurse, lived in both the 20th and 18th centuries and found love in both periods. Jamie, a Scottish soldier of the 18th century, was able to charm the accidental time traveler and the fans of the show.

Since there isn’t a police number that could be radioed in, when love strikes, just tell them you have a case of Jake and Amy. It doesn't take a genius to realize that Jake and Amy's witty banter is just a cover for how deeply smitten they are with one another. A match made in television heaven is between punctual, know-it-all Amy and carefree, goofy Jake.

Even in office spaces, interesting love can flourish among coworkers. The perfect example of it is Jim and Pam from The Office.

Will Smith might have been the center of attention in 2022 and the series The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air, but when talking about the love front in the series, Phil and Vivian flipped it around.

Have you ever searched for the definition of soulmates in a book called the dictionary? If you haven’t yet — you’re in luck. Don't look for it in the dictionary when you can see it in The Good Place. Chidi and Eleanor, no matter how many times they reboot their memories, can find each other over and over again.

Rachel and Ross might be the wilder pair from Friends, but Monica and Chandler are the more wholesome of the two. While Chandler is the more relaxed yet sarcastic one, Monica is more “panicky,” trying (and sometimes succeeding) to conquer her many problems. They are a perfect duo that completes each other.

While the story is about Ted meeting his wife, Tracy, no one can doubt that the main couple of the series is Lily and Marshall — the pad and the marshmallow. This couple made us smile, squeeze out a couple of tears from our eyes, and feel happy — sometimes all three at the same time.

Without the relationship between Dre and Rainbow, Black-ish would not exist. This couple deserves admiration for pushing each other and dealing with problems, such as gender, race, and politics, while modeling good black relationships for their children.

Comedic duo Lucy and Ricky were one of the first multi-ethnic couples on television, which is no minor achievement considering this was the 1950s.

Mad About You gave us a taste of life after getting married.

We have the chance to see Cory and Topanga mature and experience many firsts together in Boy Meets World. The class clown and the brilliant girl became the childhood TV pair we aspired to be.

Team Logan, Team Jess, or Team Dean? Nah, the love story between Luke and Lorelai is what truly captured the attention of the viewers of this series. Positive Lorelai and pessimistic Luke complement each other perfectly because of their contrasting personalities.

Doctors are the savers of life and brokers of the hearts. Grey’s Anatomy is not only medically interesting but also teaches us one or two things about the struggles of romantic life. If you are a vivid watcher, Meredith and Derek might be the couple you most commonly associate with romances in the medical field.

It seems like Harriette and Carl, the heads of the Winslow family, can work together, face problems, and still love each other. While the nerdy Steve Urkel might be the center of attention for most meme lovers, the romantic fans of Family Matters tend to focus more on the long-term relationship between Harriette and Carl.

Who doesn’t like a drama or two thrown in their way? With the series name Gossip Girl, it’s easy to say that there are a lot of dramas to watch and like. The dramatic relationship between Blair and Chuck, while truly filled with genuine love, is rocky at best. Jumping from drama to conflicts, with pauses of relaxation, these two capture plenty of fans’ hearts.

LoVe is the name of Veronica and Logan's ship. It doesn't seem like a good match for a detective and a bad guy, yet Veronica and Logan manage to make it work. Throughout the series, although equally obstinate, they have learned to trust one another.

Even geeks are known to catch some hearts in their webs. The O. C. tells the tale of a geeky, awkward boy who develops feelings for a popular girl.

The two people who managed to keep this large, mixed family intact must be mentioned while discussing The Brady Bunch.

It can't be simple to run a busy family, but Carol and Mike always make time for one another.

Just because it’s a teen drama, filmed through the 2000s and early 2010s, doesn’t mean that every relationship shown is drama-filled. The relationship between Nathan and Haley, two high school sweethearts, is marked by romantic actions and heartfelt catchphrases like “always and forever.”

Nothing says true love like leaving your home country and still sticking together in a land full of strangers. Louis is all for adapting to American society, but Jessica is against it. Yet, the couple stays in agreement despite having opposing ideologies. They bring out the best in one another and instill a spirit of support in their kids.

It's not shocking that the Jeffersons from All in the Family received their very own spin-off series because they were such a smash there. You may expect George's temper and Louise's kind nature to balance each other out. Despite the hardships surrounding them, they stay relevant and lovable to the fans.

When romance is there, it might be hard to remain merely friends. What was once just platonic develops into the FX drama's best relationship.

The connection between Edith and Archie on All in the Family might be considered the epitome of the 1970s, despite the decade's classic films and TV series. With optimist Archie and generous Edith keeping him grounded, it's occasionally true that opposites attract. Let the laughter begin.

Randall and Beth may be the best pair in the series. We witness several events in the couple's lives, highs, and lows, as the program cuts between timeframes. The NBC drama graciously allows us to put down the Kleenex when they are on screen, during their high-stakes life discussions, or their interactions with their children.

Love is understood in many different ways. Some gift fresh, out-of-the-garden flowers for their loved one — others do various actions. For Frank and Estelle, their love is seen through shouting matches, Frank's pick-up moves, and the strained relationship they have with their son, George Costanza.

Twilight might dominate the vampire love genre on the big screens, but Vampire Diaries can get our attention on the smaller screens. Elena, Damon, and Stefan form a dangerous and sharp love triangle. Team Damon and Team Stefan have risen in the fandom so you know that the battle must be blood-boiling…

Even cold-hearted KGB sleeper agents are bound to fall in love at least once. Philip and Elizabeth, living and hiding under fake names in the United States, form a realistic bond of love. To them, the feelings might be a part of the cover, but to the viewers, it is as romantic as it can be.

In the fictional town of Smallville, there is enough space for both alien stuff and love for the young Superman. Over the years, Clark Kent and Lois Lane's relationship has evolved from quarreling friends to dynamic collaborators and lovers. Fans have also coined the term "Clois" for their union.

When you are in the middle of the game, with only a few seconds left on the clock — you have to be focused on the game. For Coach Taylor, this game was both pushing his team to the state championship and keeping Tami close to his heart. This power couple sits cozily on the top of many couple-related lists.

Dawson’s Creek is a coming-of-age story that explores the love of the two couples, Jen and Dawson, and the more memorable Pacey and Joey. While the platonic relationship between Joey and Dawson is a nice one, when she begins to develop feelings for Pacey, it is like she finally found her real soulmate.

Friends wouldn't be complete without Rachel and Ross and their rocky, on-and-off relationship. While most of us usually want to have a Monica and Chandler type of relationship, it's hard to admit that most of us are in a Ross and Rachel relationship, with breaks and errors. After a series-long on-and-off relationship, seeing them reunite as a couple at the very end brought joy to a lot of the fans.
