Some on-screen couples have such electric chemistry they could power a city. Others, however, have all the spark of a wet matchstick, and no amount of money could fix it.
Curious to see the worst of the worst, one woman on Threads asked the internet to share the most painfully mismatched TV couples. And of course, the responses were brutal. Check out their picks below and let us know if you agree—or if you have your own to add!

Britta and Troy. They actually had amazing potential with the dice episode in season 3. But they totally screwed it all up in season 4. They didn’t even have a plan for their relationship. They could have not been a couple and it wouldn’t have made a difference in the story
