Supernatural love is adorable too. Buffy’s a monster slayer, Angel’s a vampire; they seem like an impossible match. But their chemistry makes the fan-favorite love story happen, as tragic as it is.
Being in love with a vampire is not a fate simply sewn. When he turns, he turns viciously.
Lucy & Ricky – I Love Lucy
The funniest couple ever. Lucy and Ricky Ricardo became the most-watched TV couple in the 1950s. On I Love Lucy, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz played themselves. Every week, Lucy’s riotously entertaining plots to prove to Ricky she’s a bona fide entertainer ended in a mortifying catastrophe. In response, Ricky’s Cuban-accented, “Luuuuucy!” prompted one of television’s most memorable lines.
Facing her sheepish pout, Ricky would invariably shout, “You got some ‘splaining to do!” The show kept people in stitches. It made you wonder what their real-life marriage was like.
Meredith & Derek – Grey’s Anatomy
Everything’s in the way of these two getting together, but, like a magnet, they can't help being inevitably drawn to each other.
It takes near-death experiences to bring these two hapless lovers together for good, but what else would you expect in an emergency room setting? The proposal, finally, is as sterile as the hospital walls, but it leaves fans ecstatic.
Jordan & Angela – My So-Called Life
My So-Called Life ran for just two seasons, but Angela and Jordan managed to become an item. Set at Liberty High School in a Pittsburgh-area suburb, Jordan and Angela juggle their persistent magnetism.
They have an image to uphold, an ego to preserve; typical high school obstacles, but they’re attracted to each other as well. In the series finale, Angela chooses Jordan over another boy.
Luke & Lorelai – Gilmore Girls
This show is officially a mother-daughter relationship story, but the love story between Luke and Lorelai draws us in. It’s on-again-off-again. The Gilmore Girls dramedy keeps fans hoping the two will stay together.
Moments like Lorelai singing, karaoke, “I Will Always Love You” with Luke in the audience, as the obvious mark, create that vibe. Warm and fuzzy.
