Writer's Block: I Love Lucy

It's a tie between Gomez and Morticia Addams... and Melinda Gordon and Jim Clancy of The Ghost Whisperer.

Besides a touch of the eerie, the Addamses and the Clancy-Gordons have one thing in common: they're passionate, loving, supportive, and largely free of the tedious relationship angst of most TV relationships.

I've been watching The Ghost Whisperer on DVD for the last few weeks, renting it online via Blockbuster. chronovius avoids me like the plague, so I watch it before he gets home. It's my guilty pleasure.

I agree with Gomez and Morticia, and I have to add the Washburns from "Firefly" and "Serenity." Zoe and Wash are one of the rare truly realistic couples in television, a couple that consists of individuals that both have their own likes, dislikes, and opinions, some of which coincide but not all. Separately, both characters are unique and stand alone, but together they create a dynamic that did not weaken them as individuals.

Zoe and Wash! Yes! Definitely way up there.

(Back in the early '80s, almost exactly 20 years before Firefly, I played a character almost exactly like Wash.)

I'd have to go with the Addams, myself ... way more than Lucy and Desi. Because the Addams weren't a bumbler vs. watchdog couple. They were peers.
