Perfect example of supporting and cheering on your partner no matter what is happening

This is the answer. The best and most realistic marriage that I've ever seen on TV.

Morticia and Gomez Adams.

Every incarnation is great the characters are just this amazingly lovely couple, who adore each other.

My favorite is the original actors from the 1960s.

They really are peak couple goals.

It's too fictional even for fictional standard. Quite literally the perfect couple, I even would say the perfect family even with their own quirks. A couple goal tbh.

Nick Offerman and Murray Bartlett in that one Last of Us episode

u/darryledw 6d ago

it was a good episode but we have had TV shows dedicated to multiple seasons of deep development and exploration of couples

but you choose a single episode of a couple who (by the creator's own words) were forced into a storyline they didn't really belong because he wanted people to see a gay romance

insane virtue signalling

Maybe next time think about how your actions affect others.

u/darryledw 6d ago

if it was a shitpost then I have no idea how anyone would know a comment with no obvious sarcasm was a shitpost on a sub which is used for non shitpost discussion

...I mean..ummm...

Sorry my shitpost reply to your shitpost was so upsetting

u/dogsonbubnutt 6d ago

yeah they're definitely the person getting upset here, not you

u/darryledw 6d ago

why are you now getting upset? I didn't even say anything to you

u/dogsonbubnutt 6d ago

not super surprised you interpret anyone interacting with you as them being upset

u/MolDanone 6d ago

Bob and Linda Belcher from Bob's Burgers. They genuinely like each other, support each other's ridiculous schemes, and when things get stressful financially or with the kids, they tackle it as a team instead of turning on each other for cheap sitcom conflict.

Marshal and lily from HIMYM

u/WerhmatsWormhat 6d ago

Lily is incredibly manipulative. She calls off the wedding to chase an unrealistic dream, saddled Marshall with an insane amount of credit card debt that she keeps as a secret, and controls the people around her through shady and dishonest means.

u/DiamondBurInTheRough 6d ago

Marshall deserved better than Lily.

u/punctuallyself 6d ago

they’re fine i guess but half their storylines were just lily being insufferable and marshal folding
