4. It was a great show.
Mary Tyler Moore's show was good too, along with all the spinoffs.

And there's even an episode of the series dedicated to accepting one's age and ponders why our culture is "youth-oriented".

49. They may not have looked perfect, but the love was obviously there.
And unlike Mike and Gloria, they stayed together.

And it was out of real love that they stayed together.

8. Morticia and Gomez
only because they were so completely crazy in love with each other, so affectionate all the time and totally accepted each other exactly as is. I would have gone with Rob and Laura otherwise.

Edited on Sun Jan-14-07 01:08 AM by nytemare
I am a quirky individual, so I have to go with them. But, Rob and Laura and Major Nelson and Jeannie were close.

:hi:

On edit: I think I recall the DVD commentary saying that they were the first TV couple to share the same bed.

...and i think that Morticia was perhaps my first 'girl crush' (before i realized just how much of a dyke i really am)... she was just so elegant and delicious to look at.

63. Exactly my thoughts!
I play for both teams, so I like em both. But, as a kid, I didn't understand that. I just thought they were cool as hell, and they didn't realize or care if they were strange.

I vote for Robb and Laura. Mary Tyler Moore was stunning too.

23. I'm sure I must have seen it way back when.
I was a tremendous fan when I was a kid and I guess it was my way of adoring my daddy who was pretty scarce at that time. I should look it up. By George, I think I will!

we all have our moments of doubt and insecurity. It is hard for me to see how you could see yourself in the light you do. But I realize that you do.

I don't see that.

78. I was just thinking Where are the Avengers and sure enough
you posted them! Of course we were never quite sure they were a couple, were we? (I was pretty young and don't have a TV to see reruns on!)

I did have to pick Lucy and Desi, but I wasn't thinking of Most Attractive couple, I was thinking of Best Matched Pair!

Hard to say who's most attractive, I'm still in love with Dick Van Dyke but never quite saw what was so great about Mary Tyler Moore ------------ ; )

Emma Peele and John Steed, though, were Marvelous, Mysterious, and Sooooo Kewl!

50. Maybe not classic, but Roseanne and Dan. Seriously.
TV's second real couple. I know you meant physically attractive, and to most people they wouldn't be. I'm not thinking physically attractive, though. I'm thinking love that holds a marriage lived in the lower-middle-class together.

Toss up between them and Rob and Laura as I consider "attractive" to mean looks, personality, and "would I like to have them next door"-iness.

Samantha was very pretty, but, I didn't really think either Dick York or Sargent(sp?)were, since I was going for the couple thing.

My apologies, though.

And if so, I can't vote for Laura and Rob; Laura was quite cute, but I never found Rob to be the least bit attractive. :shrug:

When you talk attractive CLASSIC tv couples, nothing beats a distinguished older guy who farms in a tie and vest!

Although I suppose I could be basing my opinion on a comparison to all the other people on the show.:evilgrin:
