Oh yeah! Definitely the best in my opinion!
And while we're at it:
Yorick and 355. :(
Brian K Vaughan the GOAT.
You don't think this is a spoiler? I do. Oh well.
Speaking of comics, I *DO NOT* approve of Rick and Michonne in the show. That's just gross, and completely contradictory of their characters.
But yes, TWD mixes and matches a lot.
I thougt about it and decided it wasn't an important spoiler... It's not current, and you kind of see it from a mile a way that they're gonna fall in love and the real spoilery thing is something else.
But still I think we should stop talking about it to avoid attracting attention to it, just in case someone is reading it haha ;)
And I agree about Rick and Michonne! That's one of the many reasons I stopped watching TWD...
Your criticism underscores why this topic was created.
They are so few and far between that standards are low.
Meave and Hector from Westworld, kinda I guess?
Remy and Jackie in House of Cards.
Forgot the names but the couple from Black Mirror's San Junipero.
Saw the Scrubs mention on the first page and though it was weird these two had been omitted. Glad to see I'm not the only one who remembered them.I got you, fam.
Guess who's coming to dinner

Keith David and Jennifer Connolly in 'Requiem for a Dream.'
Holy shit! This had me burst out laughing. Good one!
Depressing.
But good!
Are people bringing up inter-species couples from Sci-fi and comics doing so in jest? Cause otherwise, it's pretty tonedeaf honestly. It equates skin-pigment with the otherness of a completely different species.
on-topic: Brad and Jane from Happy Endings (show ended too soon!) is the one that I could think of right of the bat.

Interracial is definitely a term that should be phased out of mainstream use at some point.

Now for a "more serious" example, I would say any couple where being in different ethnic groups is the focus/the writers constantly remind you of their ethnicity as opposed to other couples that are in the same ethnic group within the same show/film. Especially when it gets to the point where their ethnic differences is the only thing that defines the couple. Examples of this include when one of the characters from Sex and the City dates a Black man which results in a fight in the club over the main character being White, to the Fresh Prince having an episode where a relative dates/marries a White man and Aunt Viv not wanting to go to the wedding and both shows discussing ethnicity issues they don't normally discuss. This wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing on it's own, but with so many film and TV shows doing this in past years/decades, it's become negative/a trope.
I was actually coming in here to post another example he had this year with Billy Eichner in Difficult People (but that also just recently got cancelled in its third season). He's now a main cast member in The Exorcist's second season, at least. Protect John Cho!
Also, just to further gay things up, Connor and Oliver from HTGAWM, also an example of a serodiscordant couple in media:
Keith David and Jennifer Connolly in 'Requiem for a Dream.'
Good god man.

That post wasn't gonna make itself.

Probably because of spoiler reasons and was it really a good example considering he was a weapons dealerI'm actually surprised at this thread. I thought this was a great example.
I don't remember most of the show now but would Revolutionary Girl Utena fit?
They keep playing with it but luke cage and jessica jones in the netflix defender-verse, its official in the comics and all but the show seems scared to do it, also clair and luke are in an actual healthy relationship and are friends with JJ, so it will just be awkward when it finally happens
Because if they get together you'd only have 1 show instead of 2
Mack and Yo-Yo Rodriguez from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D
Damn. Beaten.Mack and Yo Yo from Agents of Shield
