10 Essential TV Gay Couples For LGBT+ Pride Month 2020
7. Cheryl And Toni - Riverdale
Cheryl Blossom and Toni Topaz have been Riverdale's power couple for quite some time now and the show's latest foray into madness in the fourth season did absolutely nothing to change that. Riverdale High's resident 'It Girl' was swayed by the former Southside Serpent a few years back and the pair have been absolutely adorable ever since.
The thing about 'Choni' is that, in spite of their all-too limited screen-time, their value to the show is extremely clear. As fabulous as Cheryl is, the writers (post-Season 1) often run the risk of turning her into a one-dimensional character with little depth as she switches allegiances on a whim. Toni is the grounding force that she needs, reminding her to change her approach when things get a little too out-there, all while giving her someone to care about - proving that there are layers beneath Cheryl's sass.
In all honesty, they could use a few more storylines because, given the chemistry between Madelaine Petsch and Vanessa Morgan and how well their characters complement each other, 'Choni' has all the ingredients for lasting success.
