4. Pam and Jim (The Office)
How could any list be complete without Pam and Jim? Let me go off and say that I can't stand The Office. I think it's one of the most unfunny, boring shows on television. But I really respect Pam and Jim together, and what they've accomplished as a couple. The show, also, really respects them which is a wonderful breath of fresh air not to have a program constantly putting their relationship or marriage in jeopardy. Instead, between all the chaos and absurdity, it remains firmly anchored and subtly explored. Good for you, The Office. You may not make me laugh, but you certainly know when to pull the right punches when it comes to relationships.

Devoted fan of comics, movies, theater, Jesus Christ, Sidney Lumet, and Peter O'Toole, he sometimes spends too much time on his Scribd and comicbookmovie.com, but doesn't think you're one to judge, devoted reader. You can follow him on Twitter to watch him talk to people you didn't know exist. Oh, and Daredevil is quite the big deal around here (my head).
