Nathan Scott
I mean, come on. He started off as a complete jackass, but you still loved him. He had a rough time there for a while, but eventually he realized how fucking ridiculous he was being and he got his act together. But really. The way he looks at Haley makes me swoon.
Finn Hudson
Ever since Mr. Schue caught him singing in the shower during the first episode, and when he sang “Don’t Stop Believin’ ” with Rachel, I knew I loved him. I seriously still cry when Finn drops Rachel at the train station at the end of season three. It’s so sad. And supportive. And amazing. Plus, his rendition of “Girls Just Want To Have Fun” is enough to drive me crazy.
Chris Brander
“Just Friends” is probably one of the most underrated rom-coms of all time. Sure, our protagonist starts off like a complete asshole, but wait! It’s all a façade–he just wants to win over his high school crush, Jamie, for the first time. He loves her. And he ends up flying back across the country to prove it. Chris Brander, ladies and gentlemen!
Chandler Bing
I don’t care what anyone says, Chandler Bing is so fucking hilarious. I literally just spent the last 20 minutes trying to pick one moment where I was particularly in love with Chandler, but it’s just not possible. You’ll have to do your own research on that.
Cory Matthews
If you don’t like Cory Matthews, then you’re wrong. Cory loved Topanga for so long, and they went through so much together. My personal favorite line is when Topanga is in the girls’ bathroom and says she wants to be alone; Cory says, “I’ll be alone with you.” Isn’t that what everyone wants?
Patrick Verona
Who doesn’t remember the “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” scene? Oh, you don’t? Go look it up right now, you uncultured freak.
Logan Huntzberger
So hear me out. I think that Rory rejecting Logan’s marriage proposal was definitely the right thing to do–I wouldn’t have felt good about them getting married at all. That being said, Logan was such an amazing boyfriend. He remembered all the little things, made surprise visits from London, and was always so sweet. And that smile. God help us all.
Real-life Boy Meets World scenario: Topanga is in the girl’s bathroom and says she wants to be alone. Cory says “Okay,” and leaves. Topanga is crushed by the fact that Cory does not pick up on that double meaning line of wanting to be alone, and questions her entire relationship thus far with Cory. In the mean time, Cory and Shawn do something stupid that every high school boy does, which pisses off Topanga even more. Topanga in response decides to go on a date with Ricky Ferris on account of Cory’s immaturity. The date turns into another, and eventually Topanga and Ricky become the hot couple of high school. Topanga and Ricky end up going to Yale together, because she doesn’t have to sacrifice her dreams for Cory anymore. Cory ends up working at his father’s Sporting Goods store unloading boxes in the back, and every time Topanga comes back to Philadelphia, they avoid contact.
Well that was elaborate
Tyrion Lannister should be on this list if the asshole from One Tree Hill is.
Hey! Nathan Scott is a saint.
David Wooderson from Dazed & Confused should have been on this list, because, “you just got to keep livin’, man. L-I-V-I-N.”
