Favorite TV couples

[Quint]

Who are your favorite gay/lesbian couple on TV shows or in movies? Mine is easily Willow and Tara (Alyson Hannigan and Amber Benson) from the show "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Their relationship develops so sweetly and naturally, which combined with the fact that Willow didn't quite recognize her own inner lesbian until Tara, is quite a feat. Theirs is a quirky but genuine affection. I don't think I ever realized how much they cared for each other until a hellgod drains away Tara's mind, leaving her insane. Willow nurses her devotedly until she uses a spell (oh yes, both are also tried-and-true Wiccans) to restore Tara's mind. Now that's lurve.

*sighs*

So what couple makes you rant as deliriously as me?

Oh yes, definitely Willow and Tara. The "You Make Me Complete" song from the musical episode (Once More With Feeling) was fantastic.

But I maintain that Willow, like Anne Heche, could be bi. She was awfully cute with Oz, too.

David and Keith on Six Feet Under.

First of all, they are both gorgeous.

But more importantly, they are portrayed as real people, with real problems, one of which is Keith's struggle with fitting into any sort of "expected" role as a gay man.
