I don’t know about you, but if there is one thing I love to see more of on TV besides a great girl squad is a great bromance! The quips, the banter, the love between guys as friends who have each other’s backs and aren’t afraid to show their affection for each other… it just warms my heart! And although there are a TON of TV bromances to choose from, here are my top ten favorites in the category of Best TV Bromances:

Steve McGarrett and Danny Williams – Hawaii Five-O

My all-time favorite TV bromance belongs to the love between Steve McGarrett and Danny Williams on CBS’s Hawaii Five-O. We were first introduced to the pair when the show aired in 2010 and we’ve been in love (well, I have) with them ever since! They fight like a couple that’s been married for 50+ years, call each other “babe,” went to couples’ therapy and a couple’s retreat, and they aren’t afraid to share a manly hug every once in a while. Not to mention their “carguments” are legendary and they’ve earned the “ship” name of McDanno.

Angus MacGyver and Jack Dalton – MacGyver

Second runner up for top TV bromance is the relationship between Angus MacGyver and Jack Dalton on CBS’s MacGyver. The show has only been on the air for a few years now and they are currently in their second season, but so far I am loving the love between these two. Dalton with his Texas twang and MacGyver with those tech skills…*sigh.* Much like McDanno, they keep each other grounded and balance each other.

The Salvatore Brothers, Damon and Stefan – The Vampire Diaries


Damon Salvatore and Alaric Saltzman

It’s ironic that Damon and Alaric would have become such good friends given the fact that Damon turned Alaric’s wife into a vampire and essentially tore his marriage apart, but it does make sense when you think about it. Damon was tortured over losing Katherine and Alaric tortured over losing his wife, both of them set on revenge in the beginning. Yet in the end, bonded over their shared hunting skills and taste for whiskey, these two became an unlikely bromance that I still personally love to this day.

The Winchesters, Sam and Dean – Supernatural

She Knows


Shawn Spencer and Burton “Gus” Guster – Psych

Best friends since they were in diapers, Shawn and Gus are the epitome of bromance. From the girlish screams as they run from danger to the classic “Suck It,” to the unintelligible whispers as they argue… how I miss these two! Including the nicknames. Even as they moved in opposite directions near the end of the show, somehow they always came back together for one more case.

Derek Shepherd and Mark Sloan – Grey’s Anatomy: RIP

RIP Shepherd and Sloan. I feel like we didn’t get enough of this bromance before both characters met their end – Mark in season 8, and Derek in season 11. Best friends since childhood, Derek and Mark were inseparable… until Mark had an affair with Derek’s former wife, Addison after they were married. When he showed up at Seattle Grace, Derek opts to punch Mark in the face rather than going for the “so happy to see you man” man-hug. And while things were tense at first between the two, they were able to rekindle their friendship. And then they were dead. Brothers in life and death, right?

Dawson Leery and Pacey Witter – Dawson’s Creek

Anybody else squeal like a twelve-year-old girl over those reunion photos and the video shared by Entertainment Weekly? Twenty years ago Dawson’s Creek gave us a 90s bromance to ship for life – Dawson and Pacey. Best friends since childhood, these two are inseparable, even though they had that whole “I love Joey, no I love Joey” thing on and off beginning with season 3. It was a friendship of simplicity and

Cory and Shawn – Boy Meets World

Of the many 90s TV shows, Boy Meets World definitely had one of the best bromances between Cory and Shawn. From the scrawny preteens to the adults, we’ve seen them grow, fight, come together, drift apart and yet somehow through all of that, they still remained friends to the end. Not even Topanga could come between them.

Greg House and James Wilson – House, M.D.


And last but not least, House and Wilson. Total opposites but yet so perfect. House with his stubborn, gruff exterior and Wilson with his soft yet tough love approach, standing with House through thick and thin… these two will forever be one of my favorite bromances of all time.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
