I enjoyed the show and saw many of my favorites like Richie and Fonzie, Ralph & Alice and Felix and Oscar and but how was Laverne and shirley not rated higher and worse how were Lucy & Ethel not number #1 ??

It was a good list compiled by Paley and Nielsen. I think they just needed Batman and Robin in there to complete it.


The 30 duos were selected by a poll conducted by Nielsen Media Research. They are (in alphabetical order):


* Archie Bunker and Michael "Meathead" Stivic ("All in the Family")
* Beavis and Butthead ("Beavis and Butthead")
* Bert and Ernie ("Sesame Street")
* Cameron Tucker and Mitchell Pritchett ("Modern Family")
* James T. Kirk "Captain Kirk" and Mr. Spock ("Star Trek")
* Chandler Bing and Joey Tribbiani ("Friends")
* Cliff and Clair Huxtable ("The Cosby Show")
* Cliff Clavin and Norm Peterson ("Cheers")
* Dan and Roseanne Conner ("Roseanne")
* Dana Scully and Fox Mulder ("X-Files")
* David Addison and Maddie Hayes ("Moonlighting")
* Dwight Schrute and Michael Scott ("The Office")
* George and Weezy Jefferson ("The Jeffersons")
* George Costanza and Jerry Seinfeld ("Seinfeld")
* Homer and Bart Simpson ("The Simpsons")
* Jack Donaghy and Liz Lemon ("30 Rock")
* Jack McFarland and Karen Walker ("Will & Grace")
* John Locke and Jack Shephard ("Lost")
* Johnny Carson and Ed McMahon ("The Tonight Show")
* Kermit The Frog and Miss Piggy ("The Muppet Show")
* Kevin Arnold and Winnie Cooper ("Wonder Years")
* Laverne De Fazio and Shirley Feeney ("Laverne & Shirley")
* Lucy Ricardo and Ethel Mertz ("I Love Lucy")
* Meredith Grey and Derek "McDreamy" Shepherd ("Grey's Anatomy")

* Ralph and Alice Kramden ("The Honeymooners")
* Richie Cunningham and Arthur Fonzarelli ("Happy Days")
* Sam Malone and Diane Chambers ("Cheers")
* Tony and Carmela Soprano ("The Sopranos")

Aside from the previously mentioned Batman & Robin, they also overlooked:

Andy Taylor & Barney Fife

Clark Kent & Lois Lane
Bugs Bunny & Daffy Duck
Colonel Steve Austin & Jamie Somers
Gilligan & The Skipper
Fred & Lamont Sanford
Matt Dillon and Miss Kitty

missed it was at walmart do u know when it going be on again

Well, another wonderful milestone. I suppose that since Disney doesn't own a TVLand-type cable channel, they figured they'd bring a phony "countdown" special to broadcast TV.
Anyway, I kinda thought they wouldn't mention Electra-Woman & Dyna-Girl.

Huh? Paley Center for Media does a special like this annually on all broadcast networks.

Well, good. The fact that I missed them all just makes me even more happy!

I watched most of it. I thought it was good. I dont know if I would put Jerry and George number 1 even though I love Seinfeld. I would put Lucy/Ethel number 1. They were really the first duo in tv history. I loved the fact they put Beavis and Butthead and Bart and Homer Simpson in the group. That was pretty cool. I kind of thought Archie and Meathead should have been higher. I'm a little surprised that Ross and Rachel from friends didnt make it. I mean they were a pretty hot couple on Friends and when they got together on Friends it seemed like everybody was talking about it.

I think they just needed Batman and Robin in there to complete it.

Considering that they were often referred to as the dynamic duo, this was a major oversight.

Modern Family is on the list? Really? It's a great show and all, but to be on this list?!

I saw the first hour of the Dynamic Duos special and was underwhelmed. I switched over to WKRP at 10:00, it was much better.
