Reddit users are chatting about the most memorable and sweetest friendships on their favorite TV dramas and sitcoms.
While love stories and family conflict create some great storylines, it's the friendships on sitcoms and dramas that keep fans coming back. Often, these friendships feel relatable as characters deal with envy, the pressure of thinking about the future, or accidentally spend less time together as one of them finds love.
From some of the most beloved friendships on sitcoms to platonic relationships on popular teen dramas, Reddit users are talking about the most memorable bonds between characters. These connections often create comedic and heartwarming moments and contribute to the bingeworthy nature of each series.
For Reddit user MorriePoppins, the friendships between "Dorothy and Blanche and Rose and Sophia" on The Golden Girls are great.
Over seven seasons, the four main characters help each other through life's problems, from dating to family tension. The relationships between Rose, Blanche, Dorothy, and Sophia are heartwarming and celebrated.
There are many friendship moments on Gilmore Girls that stay in fans' minds, and while Rory's academic life and complicated relationships with her three partners are an excellent reason to rewatch the show, Rory has some important platonic relationships as well.
Reddit user bufsta loves the friendship that "Rory Gilmore and Lane Kim" have on Gilmore Girls, and one Redditor replied, "Rory and Paris in the later seasons too." It's a lot of fun seeing all three characters hang out in the season 5 episode and drink too much Founder's Day Punch, which allows them to connect over their confusing dating lives.
Reddit user AlexanderJJ said "Shawn and Gus from Psych by far for me!" when it comes to the best TV friendship.
Shawn and Gus balance each other out perfectly, and they're both intelligent in their own way. While Shawn lives to dive right into a new adventure, Gus is more cautious, but they both like solving cases and helping people out. The show works so well thanks to this fascinating dynamic.
While Jess and CeCe's great New Girl friendship is praised, there are some other characters who have a great time hanging out together and who have stood out to viewers.
Reddit user Moviefan2017 loves the friendship between "Winston and CeCe" on New Girl. These characters are both playful and silly, and while CeCe is more practical and logical than Winston, he balances her out. It's fun seeing them in a scene together.
Veronica Mars has some incredibly wild moments, from Veronica investigating her best friend's death to the love triangle that Veronica becomes caught up in. But while the teen drama is beloved for its dating and detective storylines, there is one friendship that is particularly sweet.
Reddit user ehsteve23 likes watching "Veronica Mars and Wallace Fenell," and this is a perfect example of a TV friendship that tugs at the heartstrings. Wallace is always there for Veronica and she tries to do the same thing for him. While Wallace might not always understand what Veronica is up to, he cares about her and that counts for so much.
Reddit user -52- thinks that "The girls in Pretty Little Liars" have a special friendship, and Reddit user silly87 added that the characters "generally get along any stick together."
The friendship scenes on PLL are part of most episodes, as there is always time to have fun, even when running from A and figuring out where Ali is and what she's been hiding. The series continues the young adult drama tradition of making sure that the main characters have a strong connection that carries them through tough times.
Reddit user Moviefan2017 said, "Troy and Abed are great on Community" have a great friendship and Reddit user eastbayted said that they "help one another grow."
While all of the main characters on this beloved sitcom have formed a quirky bond through their study group, many viewers would agree that Troy and Abed are fun to watch as they are perfectly silly and yet serious about spending quality time together.
When talking about the best TV friendships, one Redditor likes "J.D. and Turk on Scrubs" and this friendship was brought up several times.
Compared to many sitcom relationships, J.D. and Turk's bond definitely stands out. The characters love that they're on the same journey together and that they're beginning their medical careers at the same time. When J.D. and Turk worry if their friendship can last as they meet new people and find success at different times, it's relatable and proves how much they care about each other.
One Redditor loves "Jerry Seinfeld and George costanza" on Seinfeld, and it's hard to think of a better bond that the one that these two characters share.
Jerry and George's best Seinfeld episodes show viewers that they help each other out, even when bugging one another, and viewers enjoy seeing what they're going to talk about next. George and Jerry have a unique TV friendship as it's just as much fun seeing them having a wild and silly adventure as it is watching them chatting at the diner or in Jerry's apartment.
Reddit user yayreddit02 mentioned the friendship between Stevie and David on Schitt's Creek and explained, "their friendship is so organic and sweet to watch over the course of the show."
From the moment that David and Stevie meet, as she works at the motel where his family begins living, it's clear that this is a friendship for the ages and that they have a special bond.
