TV’s Cutest Cartoon Couples, From the Stone Age to the Distant Future

Love is in the air—cartoon air, that is. Whether they’re causing chaos, saving the world, or just making each other laugh, animated couples have been holding it down on our screens for decades. And now, “Entertainment Weekly“ has listed their favorites.

This delightful roundup of animated romances includes everything from sitcom staples like Homer and Marge Simpson to more surprising pairings (yes, Scooby and Shaggy made the list). It’s a love letter to animated TV and all the weird, wild, and occasionally adorable duos who call it home.

Here’s who made the cut:

1. Fred and Wilma Flintstone (“The Flintstones”) – The original stone-age sweethearts.
2. George and Jane Jetson (“The Jetsons”) – The futuristic family couple with timeless bickering.
3. Scooby and Shaggy (“Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!”) – Because bromances count too, especially ones based entirely on snacks.
4. Homer and Marge Simpson (“The Simpsons”) – Somehow still going strong after 30+ seasons of absolute nonsense.
5. Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy (“Harley Quinn”) – Gotham’s most chaotic couple, and an LGBTQ+ fan favorite.
6. Cyclops, Jean Grey, and Wolverine (“X-Men: The Animated Series”) – A complicated triangle that gave ‘90s kids feelings.
7. Hank and Peggy Hill (“King of the Hill”) – Low-key and practical, with just enough propane-fueled passion.
8. Lois and Peter Griffin (“Family Guy”) – Wildly dysfunctional, but weirdly inseparable.
9. Adora and Catra (“She-Ra and the Princesses of Power”) – Enemies to lovers, with glowing swords and intergalactic trauma.
10. Leela and Fry (“Futurama”) – He’s a lovable doofus, she’s a one-eyed badass—classic opposites attract.
11. Scott Pilgrim and Ramona Flowers (“Scott Pilgrim Takes Off”) – A Netflix reboot brought their complicated love story back to life, again.
12. Bob and Linda Belcher (“Bob’s Burgers”) – Probably the most relatable couple on the list. Supportive, silly, and fueled by burgers.
13. Diane Nguyen and Mr. Peanutbutter (“BoJack Horseman”) – Not exactly #relationshipgoals, but certainly memorable.
14. Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable (“Kim Possible”) – Saving the world between math class and prom.

Notably, Entertainment Weekly didn’t rank them officially—but this is the order they presented them in, so read into it as you will.

Whether you’re a fan of heartwarming loyalty, dysfunctional chaos, or endearing awkwardness, this list has a couple for every cartoon-loving soul. Who knew animated love could be so… animated?
