Classic TV Duos Through the Years — We Just Can’t Get Enough of Them!

Can you think of peanut butter without jelly gradually creeping its way into your mind? Let’s face it, a lot of the Classic TV we grew up watching kind of feels the same way. How often can you think of a television show and not think of a pair of characters who have provided you some of your biggest laughs and greatest thrills? C’mon, play this game with us. You think of I Love Lucy. and who comes to mind? Lucy and Ethel. The Honeymooners? Ralph Kramden and Ed Norton. The X-Files? Mulder and Scully. The Odd Couple? Oscar and Felix. Laverne and Shirley? Okay, that was admittedly an easy one, but you get our point.

With this mind, we’re taking a look back at some of our favorite classic TV duos.
