Jim and Pam getting married in The Office
Sitcoms often live or die based on how relatable and compelling the characters are, with the dynamics between such individuals making the most beloved of sitcoms more than just humorous shows. The comedy is always super important, sure, but this type of television is also consistently good at exploring themes surrounding love and companionship, often building up and exploring relationships over numerous years/seasons.
9 Adam and Hannah 'Girls' Across six provocative and uncomfortably funny seasons, Girls provided a brutally honest look at the hardships of working and dating as a young adult in the 21st century. The main characters were indeed the four titular girls, but all were shown to go through various relationships as the show went along. Even with the focus on love and loss, the show’s tone ensured things were hardly “romantic,” though, at least in the traditional sense.
7 Basil and Sybil 'Fawlty Towers' At the other end of the spectrum to How I Met Your Mother’s Lilly and Marshall comes Basil and Sybil from the classic – yet short-lived – sitcom Fawlty Towers. Co-written by and starring John Cleese of Monty Python fame, the show revolves around an incredibly dysfunctional hotel run by a dysfunctional couple, everything always coming apart at the seams… but in a funny way, seeing as the characters bring chaos upon themselves.
But of all the couples in Parks and Recreation, none were as much fun or as strangely believable as Andy Dwyer and April Ludgate, played by Chris Pratt and Aubrey Plaza respectively. It’s another quintessential "opposites attract" type of couple, with Andy being hyperactive and excitable and April being sullen and sarcastic. Seeing the commonalities between the two develop – and the way they accept and learn to love the other’s differences/quirks – always proves endearing.
