Although many series opted away from family sitcoms and into heavier drama through the ’90s until now, over the years, many popular series, especially teen dramas, have featured many different siblings and different sibling dynamics from strained relationships to the best of friends, and fans become just as engrossed in these relationships as they do romantic ones. Some shows have found amazing success by having siblings lead a show, so here are 12 of the most popular TV siblings ranked from worst to best:
12. Dan and Jenny Humphrey (Gossip Girl)
At first, the sibling relationship between Dan and Jenny Humphrey on Gossip Girl started off like quite an adorable brother-sister dynamic. As two kids both from the wrong side of the city going to an elite school, they had to have each other’s backs and Dan was a protective and attentive older brother. Eventually, as their lives changed and they became part of the popular crowd, they grew apart and became very different people. What makes them the worst TV siblings, however, is the fact that Dan was Gossip Girl and he said a lot of awful and weird things about his own sister under the alias.
