Like mother, like daughter! For this list, we’re looking at the most memorable mother/daughter relationships on television. These relationships don’t necessarily need to be the best or most loving; they just need to be relatable and realistic. We won’t be including any animated shows, so unfortunately Marge and Lisa are out. Note: as major plot points are fundamental to a number of these relationships, there will be spoilers, including character deaths. Our list includes “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” “Pretty Little Liars,” “This Is Us,” “Jane the Virgin,” “Once Upon a Time,” and more!

Fiona and Laura Coyne from "Degrassi" should have been an honourable mention. Laura supported Fiona throughout her alcoholism, her being abused, and her realizations about her sexuality. Annie Clark has even mentioned that she looks more like Joy Tanner than her own mother.
