Sam and Diane (Cheers) Or Ross and Rachel (Friends)

I'm guessing that most of you guys are familiar with these couples. Both popularized the "will they/won't they" angle on TV sitcom. Which one do you prefer? And also I'm talking about which couple entertained you the most?

 

Little ditty 'bout Sam and Diane

 

I voted for Cheers, which would occasionally make me laugh. I don't think I ever laughed watching Friends.

 

Pam and Jim.

Sam and Diane?

 

Fan more of Cheers, but actually I found both of these relationships annoying.

 

Sam and Diane - they had such different personalities which made their pairing more interesting and entertaining.

 

Sam and Ross.

 

Barney & Thelma Lou

 

I kinda prefer Smithy and Nessa from Gavin & Stacey.

 

I find nearly everything about the show Friends annoying. Not a fan. Sam & Diane all the way.

 

Ryan and Kelley

 

Hotlips and Ferretface.

 

Never watched Friends very much. I just don't like Schwimmer, Perry was ok in short doses, and the stupid guy wore on me quickly. Cheers was great , and usually cracked me up at least once an episode. I vote Sam and Rachel. The Diane character grew to be annoying, and she left about right on time. Alley grew on me a little bit , as the series went on. First few seasons of Cheers were really good.

 

i'll be there for Ross and Rachel!

 

Sam and Diane. Confused by a post that had 2 guys , thought this was just about Sam and Diane or Ross and Rachel.

 

Wish there was a "neither" option.

 

Same here. I never warmed up to Cheers, and the Ross/Rachel on-again-off-again story line got tiresome quickly. I'd vote for Miss Fine and Mr. Sheffield over either of these choices for a dragged out "will they ever be together" story line, or Dorothy & Stan Zbornak for the "why are they still associating with each other" story line.
