Line 231:
*** Somewhat justified in that Chandler and Joey are classified as "the funny one" and "the cute one," respectively. Chandler isn't necessarily ''ugly''; he's just not the best-looking guy on the show.
* From ''[[Mad About You]]'', the beautiful Leila Kenzle with Richard Kind, who bears a marked resemblance to [[Magilla Gorilla]].
* Seen in ''[[Homicide: Life Onon the Street]]'', even though interestingly enough, we never see the man in question. When a beautiful woman reports her husband's disappearance and presumed murder, suspects include his equally gorgeous mistress (who's innocent). One of the detectives expresses complete shock and confusion as to how a "2", as he describes the victim, was able to not only snag two "10's", as he describes the women, but was also able to string them both along when they both could have easily dumped the cheating lout.
* Used in ''[[The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air]]''. "Uncle Phil" is played by the portly James Avery, while "Aunt Viv" is played by the gorgeous and svelte Janet-Hubert Whitten (and later Daphne Maxwell-Reid), although an episode that flashed back to over a decade previous showed that Avery's character was slimmer and more conventionally attractive before he got into the wealthy world of high-powered law—and Vivian makes it abundantly clear to Will that Phillip's weight does not affect her feelings for him. It's also worth noting that while Phillip is a large man, it's because he is a ''large'' man who could snap other guys in half over his knee if he wanted. This is also true of his actor, 6'4" former Navy man James Avery.
* Seen in the short-lived sitcom "[[Daddio]]", which had the schlubby Michael Chiklis playing househusband to a pretty attorney.

== [[Tabletop Games]] ==
* In ''[[Warhammer 4000040,000]]'', Isha, the Eldar goddess of life is stuck in a Hades & Persephone-type relationship with Nurgle, the Chaos god of disease, who is best described as one big pustule. The other examples on here don't even come close. She isn't happy about it, but Nurgle seems to genuinely love her (in his own sick way), and Emperor knows the other alternatives were worse - [[Fate Worse Than Death|Slaanesh]] (whom Nurgle rescued her from), for instance. Plus, Isha uses his-ah- way of showing affection to help the rest of the Galaxy(or at least the Eldar) with cures.
** Her equivalent in ''[[Warhammer Fantasy Battle]]'' is either the same... or Nurgle's ''daughter'', who cures people so daddy can make them sick again. No one's sure.

== Web Comics ==
* Luk River and Hala from "Irregular Elis", a lucky man married with a hot mom alien.
* Jason and Aubrey from ''[[Something *Positive]].'' Before they got together, Jason was also quite the lady's man, apparently due to some mathematical formula that lets him seduce anyone he wants. Also, [http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp06122004.shtml he's implied] to have a [[Biggus Dickus]].
** Davan with just about any girl he's dated, though this is largely [[Informed Deformity]].
