Top 10 Comedic Character Duos in an Animated Series

The Top Ten
Tom and Jerry - Tom & Jerry
Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck - Looney Toons

BUGS: Elmer, will you shoot him now or wait till you get home?
DAFFY: SHOOT ME NOW! SHOOT ME NOW!

Rick and Morty - Rick and Morty

Absolute perfection of the trope, enough said. I don't even like the show nearly as much as most, and even I can agree on this.

SpongeBob and Patrick - SpongeBob SquarePants

SPONGEBOB: (struggling desperately to get the paint off Mr. Krabs' dollar) NOTHING'S WORKING!
PATRICK: WAIT, SpongeBob! We're NOT CAVEMEN! We have TECHNOLOGY! (smashes outdated 1990s computer against the dollar in a fit of rage) DURR DURR DURR DURR DURR!
SPONGEBOB: (a few seconds of awkward silence later) It didn't work.

Jim and Peter - Earthworm Jim

Oh, and also, before I forget:

(#6)

JIM: Don't you think it's STRANGE, a giant worm and a talking dog living together?
PETER: It isn't strange. There's a warthog down the street who lives with a talking eggplant!

Long story short, this show is the most underrated thing I've seen in a LONG time. I'm not spoiling the episode origins, but here are some examples of the more hilarious dialogue exchanges between the two:

(#1)
JIM: (flies his way through the understandably terrified Psycrow's ear canal until he finally reaches the poor guy's ridiculously small brain) PSYCROW'S BEHAVIORAL CONTROL CENTER! QUICK! (swings his hand out behind him so ludicrously exaggeratedly and forcefully that Peter Puppy reflexively flinches backward to avoid getting hit in the face with it) YOUR TAPE PLAYER!
PETER: You're NOT gonna get CUSTARD (totally not an innuendo for man-juice) all over it again, ARE YOU?!
JIM: (shoots a priceless death glare at Peter, then snatches the device right out of his hands and jams it directly into Psycrow's cerebral cortex)

(#2)
PETER: Well, you see, my college education tells me that (insert hilariously long and over-complicated string of scientific mumbo-jumbo words here).
JIM: So basically, I just shoot the black hole with my ray gun to make it go boom?

(#3)
PETER: Once again, villainy is as a rotten roadkill CORPSE beneath the MAGGOTS of justice!
JIM: Thank you for cramming that delightful image into my BRAIN, Peter!

(#4)
PETER: Somehow, I find the presence of certain death oddly comforting, Jim!
JIM: OOO-KAY, then...well, for starters, YOU HAVE...SOMEWHAT POOR TASTE IN CLOTHES! Your SINGING voice is THIN and REEDY! You...YOU SMELL FUNNY WHEN YOU'RE WET! (Peter transforms into his monster form and mauls the living crud out of Jim)
PETER: You were just saying all of that to make me transform, right?
JIM: Of COURSE, little buddy...although you DO smell kind of funny when you're wet! (Peter transforms and mauls the crud out of Jim yet again in response)

(#5)
PETER: (after he and Jim literally just got shrunken down to microscopic size by Psycrow and defeated him by flying into his ear canal like... more

Beavis and Butt-Head - Beavis and Butt-Head

One of the all-time best parodies of stereotypical, dumb, rock-elitist teenagers. Hands down.

Heffer and Filburt - Rocko's Modern Life

My personal favorite scene from them:

FILBURT: (with his potato chips stacked up on the desk of his local high school's science lab in a disturbingly meticulous fashion) Okay, I'll eat THIS one today, and THIS one tomorrow, and then I'll save THIS one for cartoons. (Grabs a handful of chips and starts holding them like a handful of playing cards) And then I'll eat this one right now... Yeah, that's right, baby, I'm eating YOU!
HEFFER: (glares greedily at Filburt's chip stash)
FILBURT: Oh no! Oh NO NO NO NO NO! I AIN'T GIVING HIM NOTHING! Let me tell you something, pal. I got PLANS for these chips! YOU ATE YOURS, FAT BOY! THESE BABIES ARE MINE! (continues counting his chips)
HEFFER: (completely loses his mind and lunges at Filburt, initiating a classic Looney-Tunes-style "dust brawl" between the two)
FILBURT: Get your FAT, stinking hooves OFF me! (wins the fight and looks down angrily at Heffer while standing atop his chest) YOU FULL YET?! YOU'VE EATEN ALMOST EVERYTHING IN THIS ENTIRE ROOM! BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! (grabs an empty potato chip bag and tosses it into Heffer's mouth) Here's the POTATO chip bag! There might be a CRUMB in THERE! (grabs a massive vehicle engine and tosses it into Heffer's mouth) How about THIS?! YEAH, YOU LIKE THAT?! YOU LIKE EATING THAT?! (grabs the lightbulb from their failed science experiment and throws it into Heffer's mouth) Here. Since you ate the potato, YOU CAN EAT THE LIGHTBULB! (Miraculously, this results in Heffer becoming a giant living potato battery.)

Ren and Stimpy - The Ren and Stimpy Show

One is a genius. Both are insane.

ZIM and GIR - Invader ZIM

Same here as with Ren and Stimpy. (Don't worry, Pinky and the Brain are coming up soon.)

Daggett and Norbert - Angry Beavers

Yet another extremely underrated gem of a show.
