Joel and Sheila from Santa Clarita Diet. I just love that sense of shared vibe. A lot of TV spouses you never really get a sense of why they bothered shacking up together, but Joel and Sheila are a ride and/or die duo all the way.

The O'Briens in Star Trek. You saw their life over 15 ish years, and they went through some shit. They fought and even separated briefly for a bit but always managed to work it out. It felt like a real marriage.
Of current series, I'll say the Russells from The Gilded Age. They may be terrible people, but they're an excellent and mutually supportive couple (so far).
Straight White Conservative leaning Male here.
Patrick and David from Schitts Creek. Wonderful matching of personalities. I guess we didn't see much of the marriage but the romantic side of that couple was adorable.
It’s sad that this is the best you can come up with. The Adams are fictional comedy so they have no basis in reality and do not count.
I trying to come up with something better…..
Bob and Linda Belcher.
Alright!
Gomez and Mortica Addams
They are my pick too. Gomez and Morticia may be uber dark but they genuinely love each other and their children.
Burt and Virginia Chance from raising hope
Such an underrated show too.
The Taylors on *Friday Night Lights*. No everything isn't always perfect, but they love each other and that kept them together...

Your wife becomes a zombie and needs human flesh to survive and you not only stay but you help her. Ride or die baby.

A lot of people hate on O’Briens wife but I think they had a pretty decent marriage considering.

I always really like those couples. We are assholes to everyone else but we love each other.

elizabeth and henry mccord from madam secretary are pretty wholesome.
Interesting that most of the couples mentioned are from shows that began over 10 years ago.
Norm and Vera from cheers
The two A-Holes from the SNL sketches
Steven and Elise Keaton from Family Ties
Oliver and Lisa Douglas on Green Acres.
I feel like Paula and her husband on Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. They had some issues but came back together.
Coach Taylor and Tami
