Girls Support Girls: 5 Iconic Female Friendship Duos

1. Daria and Jane from Daria

Daria is an adult animated sitcom created by Glenn Eichler and Susie Lewis Lynn. The series ran from 1997 to 2002, on MTV.

Both girls are similar to each other. They are both cynical, smart, and sarcastic. And every Daria-like introvert definitely needs her Jane-like extravert.

2. Maeve and Aimee from Sex Education

Sex Education is a teen comedy drama created by Laurie Nunn for Netflix. It’s been released from 2019 to 2023. The endless support that Maeve and Aimee gave to each other is unmeasurable. They are definitely the iconic feminist duo we deserve.

3. Buffy and Willow from Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a supernatural drama created by Joss Whedon. The series premiered in 1997 and concluded in 2003. Although nowadays, a lot of fans seem to judge this friendship, it is obvious that the producers did a good job showing the natural evolution of a friendship.

When you’re young, it’s pretty potent and dominant, but as you age, the nature of the friendship changes.

4. Abbi and Ilana from Broad City

Broad City is a sitcom created by and starring Ilana Glazer and Abbi Jacobson. The sitcom premiered on Comedy Central in 2014 and aired for five seasons, ending in 2019. From real-life besties to fictional besties is the best transition we can imagine. No wonder, the show perfectly portrays a realistic female friendship.

5. Leslie and Ann from Parks and Recreation

Parks and Rec is a satirical mockumentary sitcom created by Greg Daniels and Michael Schur. The show aired on NBC from 2009 to 2015. What can we say? Sometimes we all need a little chaos in our lives, which Leslie perfectly delivered in Ann's. And we definitely need a friend who describes us as a beautiful tropical fish.
