Your favorite folks on your favorite television shows.<\/p>\n<p>Good TV is the product of many hands working harmoniously to merge visuals, writing and performance into stories that breathe, laugh and ache along with you. Great TV imbues its fiction with a soul, coaxing us to view fully crafted characters as beings of flesh and blood, or constructed unscripted scenarios as truth.<\/p>\n<p>Relationships power television, is what I\u2019m saying. If that weren\u2019t true, \u2018shipping wouldn\u2019t be a global pastime. Even on shows where the core relationships are entirely platonic, we connect with some part of the duos or ensembles that keep us watching them \u2013 whether that\u2019s because their friendships remind us of something or someone in our lives, or they model an ideal for us to aspire to.<\/p>\n<p>So, with half the year behind us, here are seven TV friendships, partnerships, support networks and buddies who renewed our faith in our fellow humans each time we hung out with them, whether in 30-minute increments or for hours.<\/p>\n<p><em>Selections are arranged alphabetically by series title.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Dunk (Peter Claffey) and Egg (Dexter Sol Ansell), \u201cA Knight of the Seven Kingdoms\u201d (HBO)<\/h2>\n<div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-506\" height=\"691\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/2ab897c9cffa8e79e91e5cf9ecd765e8-1024x691.jpg\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/2ab897c9cffa8e79e91e5cf9ecd765e8-1024x691.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/2ab897c9cffa8e79e91e5cf9ecd765e8-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/2ab897c9cffa8e79e91e5cf9ecd765e8-768x518.jpg 768w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/2ab897c9cffa8e79e91e5cf9ecd765e8-1536x1037.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/2ab897c9cffa8e79e91e5cf9ecd765e8.jpg 1692w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><span>(Steffan Hill\/HBO )<\/span> Peter Claffey and Dexter Sol Ansell in \u201cA Knight of the Seven Kingdoms\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n<p>One was born into the most powerful family in Westeros and raised in luxury. The other, a Flea Bottom orphan taken in by a drunken hedge knight, spent most of his life sleeping on the hard ground. But when Ser Duncan the Tall crosses paths with a slender, small boy calling himself Egg, so begins a friendship that will one day change the Seven Kingdoms. (Or is it Nine Kingdoms?)<\/p>\n<p>In a universe where betrayal is a common currency, the bond that develops between Dunk and Egg is absolutely magical, although not entirely wrought from thin air. Egg, who is revealed to be Prince Aegon V Targaryen, has never known brotherly love or witnessed goodness in action until he meets Dunk, one of the lowest of the lowborn. Salon\u2019s Nicolas Liu said it best in his analysis of the show: \u201cDuncan the Tall walks knowing what it is like to be small, hungry, and powerless, but also unburdened by the pragmatism and vanity of power and wealth, which so often buries a noble\u2019s sense of morality and love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To Dunk, Egg isn\u2019t the weak prey his brothers tauntingly tell him he is, or some delicate bauble, but a friend who can take a good-natured ribbing, who encourages boldness and deserves to be cared for. Dunk and Egg\u2019s odd couple adventures provide six too-brief episodes of respite and hope at a time when both are in short supply. That alone makes it a comfort watch.<\/p>\n<h2>Siegfried Farnon (Samuel West) and Mrs. Hall (Anna Madeley), \u201cAll Creatures Great and Small\u201d (PBS)<\/h2>\n<div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-507\" height=\"691\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/fd99d2ffe0f01391987058ead98367f7-1024x691.jpg\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/fd99d2ffe0f01391987058ead98367f7-1024x691.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/fd99d2ffe0f01391987058ead98367f7-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/fd99d2ffe0f01391987058ead98367f7-768x518.jpg 768w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/fd99d2ffe0f01391987058ead98367f7-1536x1037.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/fd99d2ffe0f01391987058ead98367f7.jpg 1692w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><span>(Helen Williams)<\/span> Siegfried Farnon (Samuel West), Mrs. Hall (Anna Madeley) on \u201cAll Creatures Great and Small\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Blurred boundaries between work and personal lives are inevitable when a person\u2019s workplace and home are one and the same. For many seasons, the most recent of which take place during World War II, that\u2019s how Siegfried Farnon\u2019s veterinary practice operates, with Siegfried sharing his home with his junior partner James Herriot (Nicholas Ralph) and Mrs. Hall, a loyal and resourceful housekeeper who often finds herself taking on unpaid emotional labor.<\/p>\n<p>So when Season 6 opens in 1945 and shows that Mrs. Hall has moved out to live with her son and his new wife, you can\u2019t help feeling happy for her. (Ditto for James, who moves his wife Helen (Rachel Joy Shenton) and their son and daughter off to Helen\u2019s family farm.) But Siegfried\u2019s life falls apart so completely that Mrs. Hall must come to the rescue. Despite how frustrating this sounds, the series develops the relationship between these two in such a way that Mrs. Hall\u2019s return to Skeldale House is a balm for both. She keeps Siegfried human, and he makes her see and feel her value not only to his household but also to the community that his practice serves.<\/p>\n<p>Ardent \u201cAll Creatures\u201d viewers like to \u2018ship these two, but I prefer their bond to remain platonic. They are war buddies in the best sense, in that they both served in World War I and, in 1945, recognize the importance of keeping the hearth fires sparked to light the way back for all lost souls, including the ones that already returned from the front.<\/p>\n<h2>Reggie Dinkins (Tracy Morgan) and Arthur Tobin (Daniel Radcliffe), \u201cThe Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins\u201d (NBC)<\/h2>\n<div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-508\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/f33ebe5835566ae5f7f30b14927f7452-1024x683.jpg\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/f33ebe5835566ae5f7f30b14927f7452-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/f33ebe5835566ae5f7f30b14927f7452-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/f33ebe5835566ae5f7f30b14927f7452-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/f33ebe5835566ae5f7f30b14927f7452-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/f33ebe5835566ae5f7f30b14927f7452.jpg 1692w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><span>(Scott Gries\/NBC)<\/span> Daniel Radcliffe and Tracy Morgan in \u201cThe Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins\u201d<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/?p=502\">Elon Musk and the trillionaire class test democracy\u2019s limits<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Before this, I had next to no reason to believe that Radcliffe and Morgan would work as a comedy team of any kind. Sure, Radcliffe has amply proven his comedic chops in shows like \u201cMiracle Workers\u201d and \u201cWeird: The Al Yankovic Story,\u201d an excellent feature-length, extremely fictionalized biopic in which Radcliffe doesn\u2019t just commit to the bit; he puts it in a headlock. Most know Morgan as a singular kind of clown who pulls everyone\u2019s focus simply by entering a room. It takes equally broad, fierce personalities to match his energy.<\/p>\n<p>Much to my surprise, Radcliffe more than steps up as a down-and-out documentarian inserted into the life of a disgraced football star grasping for a comeback. Every member of this cast holds their own, granted, but Morgan and Radcliffe\u2019s onscreen give-and-take earns Arthur\u2019s slow, steady acceptance into Reggie\u2019s weird, lovely family dynamic. (One held together by Erika Alexander\u2019s outstanding performance as Reggie\u2019s ex-wife and devoted manager, Monica, I should add.) Arthur\u2019s season-ending announcement that the months they\u2019ve spent together only mark the start of his project might make you a little giddy to see how far and high this partnership will soar.<\/p>\n<h2>Deborah Vance (Jean Smart) and Ava Daniels (Hannah Einbinder), \u201cHacks\u201d (HBO Max)<\/h2>\n<div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-162\" height=\"691\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/daf504f35a7bdd5a351404df62ae1e34-1024x691.jpg\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/daf504f35a7bdd5a351404df62ae1e34-1024x691.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/daf504f35a7bdd5a351404df62ae1e34-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/daf504f35a7bdd5a351404df62ae1e34-768x518.jpg 768w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/daf504f35a7bdd5a351404df62ae1e34-1536x1037.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/daf504f35a7bdd5a351404df62ae1e34.jpg 1692w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><span>(Courtesy of HBO Max)<\/span> Hannah Einbinder and Jean Smart in \u201cHacks\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Over five seasons, Deborah and Ava constantly redefined the parameters of what each owed to the other. What started as purely professional, with a seasoned veteran taking a dismissed but talented upstart under her wing, quickly got personal as Ava betrayed Deborah\u2019s confidence, and Deborah sued Ava while keeping her in her employ. But like any lasting marriage, all appearances of rancor and hatred masked hurt and insecurity on both sides until, in their final push, they unite to take on the men who would see them fail.<\/p>\n<p>The way \u201cHacks\u201d balances professional wish fulfillment with the cold reality of show business won\u2019t soon be matched by another series, if it ever happens at all. But the hard-won love between these two women, the kind that\u2019s strong enough to give an exhausted Deborah a reason to keep living, is the stuff of great movie romances \u2013 down to the picture-perfect season finale set to the melody of a Barbra Streisand-Judy Garland duet.<\/p>\n<h2>Jinx (Nick Offerman) and Susie (Thaddea Graham), \u201cMargo\u2019s Got Money Troubles\u201d (Apple TV)<\/h2>\n<div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-509\" height=\"691\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11a3f4f2a7c7431065ba5206796f8fd6-1024x691.jpg\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11a3f4f2a7c7431065ba5206796f8fd6-1024x691.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11a3f4f2a7c7431065ba5206796f8fd6-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11a3f4f2a7c7431065ba5206796f8fd6-768x518.jpg 768w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11a3f4f2a7c7431065ba5206796f8fd6-1536x1037.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11a3f4f2a7c7431065ba5206796f8fd6.jpg 1692w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><span>(Apple TV)<\/span> Nick Offerman and Thaddea Graham in \u201cMargo\u2019s Got Money Troubles.\u2019<\/p><\/div>\n<p>You\u2019ve heard the old advice to never meet your heroes, right? Some scenarios prove that to be wrong. Susie, a diehard cosplayer, is the only confidante and roommate to stand by Elle Fanning\u2019s Margo after she gets knocked up by one of her college instructors. Susie also worships Jinx, a wrestling legend who happens to be Margo\u2019s father \u2013 although Margo withholds that bombshell until Jinx shows up at the door of their shared apartment, having emerged from rehab with no place to go.<\/p>\n<p>As Margo constructs a secret OnlyFans persona to make money, only Jinx and Susie understand what she\u2019s doing without judging her. And as the three team up to sell Margo\u2019s fantasy to the horny online masses, Susie gradually becomes a second daughter to Jinx, which makes it especially heartbreaking when he relapses and nearly dies of an overdose. In a scene near the end of the season, after he\u2019s apologized to his relatives, he makes amends with Susie, one-on-one. Watching Graham break into tears and whisper, \u201cYou really scared me,\u201d is one of the most vulnerable moments I\u2019ve witnessed in the last six months. It pulls a hero Susie worshipped as an idea off his pedestal and into her embrace, in all his wounded imperfection, and shows him simply as an man who\u2019s injured and down for the count, but recovering.<\/p>\n<h2>Dr. Paul Rhoades (Harrison Ford) and his caring community, \u201cShrinking\u201d (Apple TV)<\/h2>\n<div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-510\" height=\"691\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/87d0b352357654a11698a028bc30a6cb-1024x691.jpg\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/87d0b352357654a11698a028bc30a6cb-1024x691.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/87d0b352357654a11698a028bc30a6cb-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/87d0b352357654a11698a028bc30a6cb-768x518.jpg 768w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/87d0b352357654a11698a028bc30a6cb-1536x1037.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/87d0b352357654a11698a028bc30a6cb.jpg 1692w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><span>(Apple TV)<\/span> Wendie Malick, Harrison Ford and Christa Miller in \u201cShrinking.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n<p>A show that launched with an improbable dynamic between Jason Segel\u2019s too-involved therapist Jimmy Laird and his patients, as well as his coworkers Gaby Evans (Jessica Williams) and Ford\u2019s Paul, has since earned our trust, if not our total acceptance, in how Jimmy and the rest work and live together. When \u201cShrinking\u201d at one point pivots around a subplot involving Jimmy and his daughter Alice (Lukita Maxwell) befriending the man responsible for his wife\u2019s death, some suspension of disbelief is a worthy trade to watch a portrayal of mercy and healing play out with such agony and, eventually, soulfulness.<\/p>\n<p>But the true test of how far Jimmy and his close-knit circle of pals and neighbors are willing to go happens in the recently completed third season: Paul\u2019s Parkinson\u2019s disease progresses to a point that he has to confront the reality of relinquishing his old life. In doing so, he sets an example for everyone around him \u2013 including Jimmy, whose abandonment issues surface.<\/p>\n<p>It is not hyperbole to say that Ford turns in the performance of his career, assisted by Michael J. Fox\u2019s guest star appearances and the sensitive work of his castmates. By the end of the season, I reflexively shouted along with Paul\u2019s signature sign-off to every interaction: \u201cF**k Parkinson\u2019s.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Rob Rausch and Ron Funches, \u201cThe Traitors\u201d (Peacock)<\/h2>\n<div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-511\" height=\"689\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/84e6914e1eea0043dfdf06453750096e-1024x689.jpg\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/84e6914e1eea0043dfdf06453750096e-1024x689.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/84e6914e1eea0043dfdf06453750096e-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/84e6914e1eea0043dfdf06453750096e-768x517.jpg 768w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/84e6914e1eea0043dfdf06453750096e-1536x1034.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/relocationacrossamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/84e6914e1eea0043dfdf06453750096e.jpg 1692w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><span>(Euan Cherry\/Peacock)<\/span> Ron Funches and Rob Rausch on \u201cTraitors.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Fun as it is to watch, there\u2019s no refuting how psychologically sadistic \u201cThe Traitors\u201d can be.
