Re: Fictional best friend duos where one friend is sorta dickish to the other?

[(Anonymous)]

A lot of duo relationships on TV have this sort of dynamic (regardless of gender) just because it's entertaining. It means you can have jokes at the expense of both characters, creates tension, and also makes actual tender moments seem more meaningful by contrast. To put it another way, watching two people being super caring and supportive of each other 100% of the time gets boring after a while.

Anyway, here are some 'dickish' best friend duos (the dickishness depending on how you interpret the friendship):
- Starsky and Hutch
- Jim and Blair (The Sentinel)
- Fraser and Ray V and/or K (Due South)
- Leonard and Sheldon (Big Bang Theory)
- Shaun and Gus (Psych)
- Merlin and Arthur

Most of the 'dickishness' in these examples can also be explained for plot reasons. I think the person who made the original comment doesn't understand... anything. (Lol.) They are interrogating the text from the wrong perspective. (Double lol.) Plus, if having best friends squabble all the time because the alternative is 'too gay', why do so many people interpret that squabbling as sexual tension, huh? Huh??????? (Triple lol.)

I think they meant specifically where Friend A is more dickish to Friend B than Friend B is to Friend A (like your examples), because it is a slightly different animal than best friends who squabble a lot -- it's unequal, which makes things trickier than equal mutual dickery.

I might have to laugh if the original commentor realizes that manly bickering friends includes Starsky and Hutch.

Huh? I don't understand this comment.

Re: Fictional best friend duos where one friend is sorta dickish to the other?

OP said their thread was based on someone thinking really sweet friends are "too gay." Starsky and Hutch bicker/fight/are dicks all the time, but they're widely regarded as pretty subtextually gay. I just think it's funny.
