Even the loneliest of souls have at least one BFF they know they can turn to whenever life gets rough. As a tribute to the power of this everlasting friendship, here's a quick list of the best television shows which celebrate BFFs!

Sex & The City

Sorry Carrie Diaries, but there's no way the spin-off can ever capture the "girl power" message of the original show. The leading ladies in these shows might have totally different personalities, but that's not stopping them from being there for each other through shitty relationships.

New Girl

What better way to deal with a bad break-up than to move into an apartment loft with three single men? And luckily for Jess, her buddy Cece is there to prevent this show from being just another awkward "fish out of water" trope.

How I Met Your Mother

Hopeless Ted would have probably given up on his never-ending quest to find "the one" in New York City if not for his four best friends. But you have to admit that the Ted-Robin-Barney love triangle would have probably destroyed their friendship for good in real life.

The Big Bang Theory

A woman who moves into an apartment across the hall from two brilliant but socially awkward physicists. Naturally, it's up to her to show them there's life outside of the laboratory.

The O.C.

The idea that a troubled teen being accepted by a close-knit group of people in the wealthy, upper-class neighborhood is the stuff that dreams are made of.

Gossip Girl

This show proves that sometimes, even your worse "frenemy" can turn out to be your best friend. Plus, being buddies with privileged teens living on the Upper Eastside of New York City certainly does have its perks.

Veronica Mars

After her best friend is murdered and her father is removed as county sheriff, Veronica Mars dedicates her life to cracking the toughest mysteries in the affluent town of Neptune. Thankfully, she has Wallace to help her solve all these cases.

Spongebob

Patrick might officially be Spongebob's buddy in Bikini Bottom, but this yellow sponge also has Gary, Squidward and Sandy Cheeks to hang out with.

Chuck

What happens when a twenty-something computer geek inadvertently downloads critical government secrets into his brain? He instantly becomes best buds with agents from the CIA and NSA, that's what.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Buffy Summers might be the hero in Sunnydale, but she probably wouldn't survive those awkward teenage years without her highschool mates by her side.

That 70s show

Set in 1970s Wisconsin, this comedy revolves around a group of teenage friends, their mishaps, and their coming of age (all while getting stoned in Eric Forman's basement).

Knight Rider

Yes, we know the buddy here is a talking car. But until you show us a rule which states that machines can't be friends with humans, we're leaving it here.

MacGyver

Just like the Hoff, MacGyver will never go on an adventure without his trusty pocket knife and paperclip by his side.

Friends

No BFF list would be complete without mentioning this show, which follows the lives, loves, and laughs of six young friends living in Manhattan.
