Romance TV Shows

Romance is the genre television was secretly running all along — the will-they-won't-they engine humming under half the shows you've ever loved. TV's advantage over the romance film is patience: a movie gets one kiss; a series gets years of almosts, and the almosts are the good part.

This page collects romance in all its registers. Grey's Anatomy has powered two decades on the collision of love and ambition in hospital corridors; Gilmore Girls made romance inseparable from coffee, fast talk, and the question of who's right for whom; and The Bachelorette strips it down to the pure, chaotic experiment of falling in love on camera. Rankings use our quality score — affection that lasts beats a hot premiere — with new love stories arriving in the recently premiered section.
