History AllLoveIsUnrequited / LiveActionTV

** Artie misses Brittany the second time they break up. He tries (unsuccessfully) to win her back). At the same time, [[spoiler: Santana]] is in love with Brittany, but [[TheBeard is dating]] [[spoiler: Kartofsky, who also seems to have a thing for Sam]].

* The Creator/RussellTDavies-era ''Series/DoctorWho''. Mickey loves Rose, but Rose loves the Doctor, who Rose's mother Jackie flirts with on their first meeting, but he won't allow himself to fall in love, he is later loved by Martha (who the Doctor rejects at every chance), was loved by Sarah Jane Smith, and had been (at least one side of him) loved by the school Matron Joan. Oh, and [[AnythingThatMoves Jack loves everyone]], except Donna. This is not at all the case in the classic series (even Sarah Jane's attraction for him is a {{Retcon}}), and becomes much less true in the Steven Moffat era. Although you have Rory's love for Amy (and Amy's ignorance of this) when they were young, and Amy's attraction to the Doctor (and his disinterest in her the knowledge that she's engaged). There is ''huge'' disagreement as to whether this trope applies at all between the Doctor and Clara due to the series continually zigzagging around it; the general agreement is that it was finally averted at the very end of Series 9 when both the Doctor and Clara ended up on the same page ... of course, just in time for [[spoiler: her exit]]. Immediately thereafter, the trope tried to reassert itself as River Song, in the 2015 Christmas special, pretty much claimed that her attraction to the Doctor - despite the two being married - was one-sided.

* ''Series/{{Bunheads}}''. Truly loved Hubbell who loved Michelle [[spoiler: until he dies]] while Michelle doesn't love anyone really, not even herself. Meanwhile Boo loves Charlie who's barely aware of her existance and all the girls except Boo are in lust with Godot who, again, is barely aware of them except for Boo with whom he's friends.

* ''Series/RuyisRoyalLoveInThePalace'': Oooh boy... All of Hongli's concubines love him (or at least compete for his favour since they have no other options), while Hongli loves no one but himself. Yunche loves Yanwan, who leaves him to become one of Hongli's concubines. Li Yu loves Suoxin, who loves Jiang Yubin.
* ''Series/TheJourneyOfFlower'': Zi Xun is in love with Zi Hua, who's in love with Qian Gu. Dongfang Yu Qing, Xuan Lang and Qian Mo also fall in love with Qian Gu, who's in love with Zi Hua. Qing Shui is in love with Xuan Lang.

* ''Radio/OurMissBrooks'':
** Averted with Miss Brooks and her LoveInterest Mr. Boynton. There, her main problem is that Mr. Boynton is too shy or awkward to make a move; or sometimes just wary of a relationship that would end in marriage. For example, in "The Wrong Mrs. Boynton", Mr. Boynton all but tells Dean Faraday of State University that he would like to someday propose marriage to Connie Brooks. [[spoiler: Mr. Boynton and Miss Brooks marry at the end of TheMovie GrandFinale]]
** Played straight with DumbJock Stretch Snodgrass and his unrequited love for Harriet Conklin. Harriet just happens to be the girlfriend of his Walter Denton, his best friend. His resultant depression is a problem in [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin "Stretch Has A Problem"]]. Stretch's sitting with Harriet at the movie theater helps set off a fight with a jealous Walter in "Stretch v. Walter Grudge Match". Finally, Stretch's attempt to "worship [Harriet] from afar" by sending her anonymous love letters, sets off the events of "Poetry Mixup".
** [[SoundToScreenAdaptation "Poetry Mixup" was remade for television]] as "Bones, Son of Cyrano". Only instead of Stretch falling for Harriet, [[SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute it was his brother Bones.]]

* In ''Series/{{Shadowhunters}}'', Maureen has a crush on Simon, who has a crush on Clary.
