I Love Lucy premiered today in 1951, and has been on the air ever since. Although Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz’s marriage didn’t last off the air, Lucy and Ricky are one of the great couples in television history. Who is your favorite TV couple?

My favorite television couple was Morticia and Gomez Addams. They were clearly in love and, wonder of wonders, they actually liked being together. As strange as their behavior was to the "normal" world all around them, I'd rather be them than all the people passing judgment on them.

Gomez was absolutely addicted to Morticia. She couldn't even speak (French) without him losing control. What a lucky woman, eh? How many of us wouldn't give an awful lot to have our husband hanging on our every words and turned on by just the sound of our voices?
