From the fiercely loyal to the downright dysfunctional, siblings in pop culture have given us some of TV and film’s most memorable moments. Let’s take a look at the best (and worst) brothers and sisters who’ve graced our screens!
Siblings—love ’em or hate ’em, they’re a big part of life. And in pop culture, they’ve given us everything from heartwarming bonds to chaotic rivalries. Whether they’re making us laugh, cry, or cringe, TV and movie siblings leave a lasting impression. So, let’s dive into some of the most iconic (and infamous) siblings from our favorite shows and films.
These are the brothers and sisters who’d go to war for each other—no questions asked.
Fred and George? Pure chaos, but also pure love. The entire Weasley clan is the definition of loyalty, even when they’re throwing gnomes or setting off fireworks in Hogwarts. Ron may complain, but he’d always stand by Harry (honorary sibling status granted).
Rebecca and Jack’s kids—Kate, Kevin, and Randall—show the messy, beautiful reality of sibling love. They fight, they make up, and they always find their way back to each other. Ugly crying guaranteed.
In a world full of backstabbing (literally), Jon and Arya’s bond was unshakable. “Stick ‘em with the pointy end” wasn’t just advice—it was big-brother wisdom at its finest.
Not all siblings get along, and honestly? That’s where the fun is.
Oh, the Bluths. Michael’s the only sane one, Gob’s a mess, Lindsay’s self-absorbed, and Buster… well, he’s Buster. Their family dinners are disasters, and we love every second of it.
Half-siblings with a lot of baggage. Derek was the golden boy, Meredith was the dark and twisty one—but somehow, they made it work (mostly).
The ultimate sibling duo. Bart’s the troublemaker, Lisa’s the brain, and their love-hate dynamic is chef’s kiss. Still iconic after 30+ years.
Some siblings take “fighting like brothers and sisters” to a whole new level.
Yikes. Cersei’s hatred for Tyrion was next-level toxic. From blaming him for their mother’s death to, you know, trying to have him killed—this was not a healthy relationship.
The ultimate love-hate godly brothers. Loki’s betrayals, Thor’s forgiveness, repeat. Yet, somehow, “I assure you, brother, the sun will shine on us again” still hits us right in the feels.
Okay, technically reality TV, but come on—the drama between Kim, Kourtney, and Khloé is peak sibling rivalry. Passive-aggressive confessionals included.
These duos don’t always get the spotlight, but they deserve it.
“Family doesn't end with blood” was their motto, and boy, did they live by it. Hunting demons, dying (a lot), and always having each other’s backs—this brotherly bond was legendary.
Adopted siblings, but their bond is so pure. Will understands Eleven like no one else, and their quiet moments together are some of the show’s best.
Hockey’s goofiest trio. They may not be the brightest, but their chaotic energy is comedy gold.
Whether they’re making us laugh, cry, or scream at the TV, sibling dynamics in pop culture keep us hooked. They remind us of our own family bonds—flaws and all. So, who’s your favorite (or least favorite) TV or movie sibling? Let’s argue about it!
