Jake Peralta is the only one that comes to mind. But now I'm thinking about it, is he even that great?

i'd put him at #2 with ben wyatt as #1. ben is so supportive of leslie. reels her in if need be but is also kinda down to clown if leslie is adamant. jake is great to amy but jake tends to be an ott screwball which is fine for the show but in terms of relationships imo it knocks him down a peg.

I don't really agree that Jake and Amy are an example of that trope. I think it could easily have been, but Jake is an excellent detective, and to counter Jake's character flaw of immaturity, Amy can be neurotic and overly fixated. I think the show did a great job of letting the women have faults along with their strengths and be entertaining as well as strong and funny, and never let Jake's goofiness get in the way of him being a good detective or a good person.

Jake may be a goofball, but he’s smart as well. Him and Amy are always competing for the most cases cracked. He’s quite amazing at his job. Maybe the trope is overdone but imo on this show they play off each other very well.

He is.

Jake truly is amazing but he's also a manchild so he comes across as an idiot a lot of times even when he's being smart. He's very supportive of Amy and seems to worship her while also treating her as his equal. I loved when she was freaking out about how being a sergeant could change things between them and he said he always knew she'd be his boss lol I honestly think Jake/Amy (and Ben/Leslie) are a pretty flawless couple, I can't think of any other tv couple that's better than them.

Yeah he’s pretty good.

i think they're an example of the trope done well
