[Music]
life’s too short for petty squabbles but
they sure do make for entertaining
television gotta say I don’t like the
way you’re looking at me right now
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
TV feuds
it wasn’t Stone Cold Steve Austin that
screwed Vince McMahon but it was Vince
McMahon that screwed Vince McMahon for
this list we’re taking a look at states
of conflict between two small screen
characters that can’t stand each other
or flat-out hate each other miserable
bitch whether these feuds are played for
Laughs or drama it’s a mess when these
people are in the same room together you
can’t play on my feelings I don’t have
any we’ve excluded animated feuds
because they’ve already been represented
on our list of the top ten cartoon
rivalries my entire family is very
touched number 10
Phil Dunphy versus Gil Thorpe Modern
Family prepare to fill the agony of done
feat Bob James
this feud follows a classic sitcom trope
with Phil Dunphy being the bumbling nice
guy and Gil Thorpe being his slick
conceited nemesis Oh Dunphy I can play
you like a ukulele coz you’re small
dainty as opposing real estate agents
Phil and Gil have been business rivals
for years history is full of great
rivalries Athens and Sparta Kerrigan and
Harding Phil Dunphy and Gil Thorpe in
this scenario he’s the Tonya I’m the
Nancy their competition gets personal
however when Gil crosses paths with a
member of Phil’s family
I just want make sure it’s okay that
your wife calls me boss
goodbye hold on I’m just messing with
you although I do think your wife’s
gonna enjoy being under me their
opposition might sound familiar but you
can always count on modern family to put
a fresh spin on an old concept with
inspired twists witty dialogue and great
chemistry between some perfectly
cast comedic actors you pass up on this
you’re gonna regret it I don’t know the
meaning of the word regret Oh
french toast double bacon egg white
straight toast jarred number nine
Francis J Frank Underwood vs. Raymond
tusk house of cards mr. vice president
normally I would ignore your call but I
am in a good mood today
not even you could run it while Frank
Underwood is one of the craftiest
anti-heroes ever to grace the small
screen house of cards would get really
boring if you were the only snake in the
White House’s garden the president is
like a lone tree in an empty field he
leans whichever way the wind is blowing
and right now Raymond tusk blows far too
strong from the West Frank finds a
worthy adversary and Raymond tusk a
billionaire with a strong grip on
president Garrett Walker wonderful come
on in if Frank is gonna move up the
ladder you’ll have to knock tusk down a
peg I don’t blame you for being
two-faced Raymond it’s good politics as
long as you don’t get caught at it now
Frank if you think that I it’s okay
Raymond Jesus forgives you Frank and
Raymond’s tug of war over the president
is practically Shakespearean both men
equally cunning in their pursuits of
power you cannot bully your way back to
the table Raymond just as you cannot by
the keys to Congress best of luck
keeping your majority in the house I
know how much it means to you number
eight Dexter Morgan versus James Doakes
Dexter what the hell you been
crime scene surrounded by mostly
oblivious coworkers the only person who
sees there’s something darker behind
Dexter Morgan’s mild mannered exterior
is sergeant James Doakes do you move on
creeps you know that Dexter yeah I know
sorry about that although we should root
for the cop to catch the serial killer
the audience oddly sympathizes with both
men practice practice practice
lanes open till midnight you want to
join me once trying to live with his
Dark Passenger and the others just
upholding the law ordered some furniture
from Thailand I was waiting for it to be
delivered as Doakes gets closer to the
truth though it becomes clear that one
of them will have to go down you’re
connected to this I don’t know how but
I’m gonna find out and some of what I
find is gonna stick to us given a
difficult choice we can’t help but hope
Dexter is the last man standing Doug
said I had two choices kill him or let
him go but he neglected to look behind
door number three hand him over to the
FBI gift-wrapped number seven alicia
florrick versus will Gardner The Good
Wife will Alicia hey the relationship
between these lawyers goes through a
number of status updates over the years
one season their co-workers the next
their lovers and then their rivals well
you were suspended because of this kind
of nonsense
get her the files or be sanctioned
having helped the unemployable Alicia
get back on her feet will is infuriated
when she steals his clients to start her
own firm
Diane discovered Alicia was planning to
leave with Cary agos and several of our
top client rich clients we’re trying to
find out now all those in favor of her
leaving Alicia Florrick of her duties
feelings are tested sides are picked and
practically everything is fair game now
this was never meant personally I don’t
give a damn
however buried under all that bitterness
will and Alicia’s still care for one
another
Thanks hey we might have our differences
but you’re the better lawyer
I am Juana any hope for will Isha is
gunned down however one tragic day in
court he’s home paramedics number six
Sheldon Cooper vs. Barry Kripke the Big
Bang Theory we accept your challenge
name a time and place tomorrow three
o’clock the kinetics WAB make it so
you’d expect somebody as nerdy as
Sheldon Cooper to get regularly picked
on would you say to the idea of you and
I becoming friends I would say I have no
one twisting becoming your friend you
wouldn’t expect a fellow nerd with a
speech impediment to be the source of
that criticism Thank You Kripke for
depriving me of the opportunity to share
my news with my friends my pleasure
Barry Kripke doesn’t let his disability
stand in the way of him being
consistently cocky
especially when around Sheldon well if
you have any delusions about entering
maquettes my robot equipped equip ler in
the Southern California robot fighting
League round robin invitational aka the
SCIF LOL i his name is going to be squat
metal although both are highly
intelligent Kripke is definitely more
quick-witted than Sheldon when it comes
to put downs and pranks
you whether they’re in competition or
forced to work together the two are
bound to make a big bang where do we
have a micro controlled plasma
number five Rick Grimes versus the
governor the walking dead I thought you
were a cop not a lawyer either way I
don’t pretend to be governor if The
Walking Dead has taught us anything it’s
that you should never trust anybody
during a walker apocalypse service the
false apostles of righteousness they
don’t deserve this thing deserve
paradise Thank You Gabriel Rick’s group
should have run for the hills upon
meeting the governor who oversees a
prison disguised as a human civilization
camp although he looks like a charmer at
first this sadistic tyrant has skeletons
and zombies in his closet literally and
now you’re gonna die and you gonna turn
and you’re gonna tear the flesh from our
bone as he sinks deeper into insanity
Rick needs to rise up and lead his
people to safety
with the governor on his trail
the undead become the least of Rick’s
worries restitution for your own lack of
inside
but failing to see the devil beside you
oh I see him all right number four
Walter White vs. Gustavo Gus fring
Breaking Bad well get back to work
Walton Gus could have shared a
prosperous partnership and friendship
after a am disagreement though the two
become mortal enemies isn’t it obvious
to you what Gus is planning he’s going
to use you to replace me as both are
incredibly sneaky you’re never sure what
either of these men is gonna do next
every time it seems that Walt has the
upper hand it turns out Gus is a step
ahead Gus yes he has been ten steps
ahead of me at every turn all we know is
that one will eventually be king of a
castle and the other will be exposed as
a two-faced monster see what we did
there
their rivalry made season four of
Breaking Bad nothing short of
exhilarating damn right Gus had to go
number three
drew alison carey versus Mimi Bobeck The
Drew Carey Show Oh drew Oh Mimi
I thought I felt death nearby although
Mimi wasn’t originally intended to be a
major part of the Drew Carey Show she
quickly became the title character’s
main antagonist you’re in really big
trouble you know that I didn’t come in
here to be insulted by some crew-cut
jerk when thinks this job is old
personal beauty contest you’re a pig
Mimi is constantly poking her nose into
Drew’s business playing pranks on him
and taking shots at his weight despite
the fact that she’s no stick then model
herself you know separately or nothing
but together we’re 800 pounds of trouble
all right I’m in for 120 loud obnoxious
and wearing way too much makeup Mimi is
the last person you’d want to be office
rivals with no no need to apologize
hello miss Bobek well what is that mold
made joke screw you go to hell she is a
hilarious comedic foil for drew
nevertheless showing little restraint in
her venture to make him miserable what
are you bothering me for can’t get laid
here either
number two Jerry Seinfeld vs. Newman
Seinfeld hello Jerry
I know the way Jerry greets Newman every
time he walks into his apartment sums up
all the animosity these neighbors share
for one another
Liz no need to get excited can we
discuss this like gentlemen no we can’t
my skin is crawling just being inside
your little back it’s never been
revealed how the two grew to despise
each other so much all we need to know
is that nothing brings the slimy Newman
more joy than causing trouble for Jerry
to live a nice seeing you again Margaret
bye Jerry
whether Jerry’s cheating on his barber
or making out during Schindler’s List
you can bet Newman will be there to
squeal on him but we have to spell it
out for you he was moving on her like
the stormtroopers into Poland never has
a feud been so trivial and yet so heated
that’s a powerful film yes
shocking brutality don’t you think
shocking yeah well that was nothing
before we go head-to-head with our top
pick here are some honorable mentions
there’s one thing I learned from you
jack it’s keep your friends close and
your enemies so close that you’re almost
kissing hmm bottom line she made the
night you yes you’re weird and tonsure
without hands bestirred it’s an old
story really good versus bad right
versus wrong the dark side versus the
light I don’t want to see you good I
want to beat the crap out of you that’s
good
I’ll tell you why you’re a bully I have
no interest in dating you sue you’re a
bully and you’re mean to kids that means
everyone yeah well fine consider this a
little taste of what you love dishing
out where’s Kate she’s fine just put
down I’m not putting down anything do
you want him to die put it down
number one Dwight Schrute versus Jim
Halpert the office you put my stuff in
jello again although Jim and Dwight are
full grown men in a professional
workplace their ongoing feud is more
like something from a playground seven
out of ten attacks are from the rear
okay well that still leaves a 30% chance
that I’ll attack you from the front oh
yeah but it’ll be easier to stop I can
always block the blow I can counter it
but
to cool for school the laid-back Jim has
played numerous inventive pranks on
Dwight some simple and others
extravagant if I can skin a mule deer’
in less than ten minutes I ought to be
able to cut my unable to take a joke
Dwight never misses an opportunity to
tattle on Jim to Michael
everyone has called me Dwayne all day I
think Jim Halpert paid them too
yes five bucks each and it was totally
worth it as much as these co-workers
drive each other crazy though they do
share some degree of respect and
fondness for one another at least that’s
more than can be said about Michael and
Toby Oh God
no God please no no no no do you agree
with our list
