Top 10 Best Bromances in TV and Film
-
Forrest & Bubba - Forrest Gump
-
Joey & Chandler - Friends
Joey famously told Chandler as he was moving out, "We're not Bert and Ernie." But this isn't quite true. While their personalities differ, Chandler is definitely the confused and neurotic Bert to Joey's laid-back Ernie.

-
Sherlock & Watson - Sherlock

skekGra & urGoh - The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance
Even though skekGra gets impatient with urGoh, they have great affection for one another and are literally each other's half. In other words, skekGra is very much a tsundere towards urGoh.

Blondie & Tuco - The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
This one's dysfunctional. One is a bounty hunter, the other a feisty, scruffy Mexican bandit. They come up with a scam to earn bounty money by saving Tuco from the noose. However, the bandit starts complaining, and their partnership ends. Hilariously, Tuco reacts like he got dumped and begins plotting revenge on the Man With No Name.
What follows is Tuco refusing to stay away from Blondie as they grudgingly work together to find buried treasure. They also seem to love tying each other up, which adds to the amusement.
These two are so obsessed with killing each other, yet they don't go through with it because they have a grudging respect for each other, and the former has started to feel pity for the latter.
They like making each other suffer to the point where you're wondering if you're watching the Spaghetti Western equivalent of a Tom and Jerry cartoon.

Kirk & Spock - Star Trek
-
Troy & Abed - Community
How are Walter and Jesse even bros? They just fought a lot! Troy and Abed, on the other hand, were the truest of bros. They rapped about how Cameron Diaz is "the goat's moustache."
They decorated Troy as a Christmas tree while singing "Christmas Troy." They also created "Troy and Abed in the morning! NIGHTS!"
Trobed is the purest form of bromance. I aspire to have this kind of relationship in my life.
Troy had feelings for Abed. Everyone could see that.
-
Edd & Eddy - Ed, Edd n Eddy
Eddy has kissed Edd under blackmail, the two have slept in the same bed (Rolf's), and Eddy has landed in Edd's arms by accident (to which Edd quipped, "What? No flowers?"). In the movie, Edd gently took Eddy's hands, and they exchanged smiles, even though Eddy doesn't normally like to be hugged or touched.
Although they're a dysfunctional pair, they're better parents to Ed than his own parents.
-
Sam & Guy - Green Eggs and Ham
Sam is very touchy-feely with Guy. Although Guy's feelings towards Sam are platonic, he likes Sam but won't easily admit it.
-
?
Julian & Robin - Ghosts
Robin is Julian's closest friend. There's not much going on between them romantically, but they are really good buddies. In the episode The Woodworm Men, they spent the night huddled together near the house.

?
Lupin & Zenigata - Lupin III
Lupin takes delight in provoking Zenigata, and Zenigata's life goal is to arrest Lupin. They are borderline obsessed with each other. They get along really well when they're drinking, though here Lupin is just pretending.
Their relationship varies. Lupin's behavior towards Zenigata ranges from pranks to torment to playful teasing. Zenigata's behavior towards Lupin varies as well. Sometimes he's glad to be rid of him. Other times he enjoys the thrill of the chase and sorely misses him when it seems Lupin is gone.

This one was unusual because they were once teacher and student. However, they play off one another very well.
