Most of us can agree that TV shows thrive on their romantic storylines, but over the years love triangles have increasingly taken over TV’s romantic storylines and divided fans.
Iconic love triangles have become a commonly used trope to hook viewers in. There is nothing like declaring who the heroine should be with and having to stick with them through the rollercoaster of intense declarations of love and breakups. But despite how annoying and cliché love triangles can be, they lead to some of the best TV moments. So, naturally we decided to take a look at TV’s most infuriating love triangles.
Scandal – Olivia Pope, President Fitzgerald Grant, and Jake Ballard
Scandal is a show built on murder, government conspiracies, and the love triangle among Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington), President Fitzgerald “Fitz” Thomas Grant III, (Tony Goldwyn), and Jake Ballard (Scott Foley). The seven-season run of Scandal was...

Ironically, one of Steven’s (Sean Kaufman) and Taylor’s (Rain Spencer) first conflicts as a couple revolves around Belly’s (Lola Tung) choice of romantic partners between Conrad (Chris Briney) and Jeremiah Fisher (Gavin Casalegno).
The love triangle debate became more contentious during Season 2 after Belly and Conrad had tried being together, but Susannah’s cancer made Conrad push Belly away. Their breakup was painful because Conrad didn’t exactly fight for Belly even though he was the one who initiated the conversation by saying he needed to talk to her. Belly had briefly held Jeremiah’s heart last season before Conrad returned her love, and Jere was very hurt when Belly ended up with Conrad.
Belly’s childhood best friend Taylor has always been more of a fan of Jeremiah. She has nicknamed their ‘ship “Team Jellyfish,” and as soon as Conrad breaks Belly’s heart at prom,...

Laurel Park (Jackie Chung) doesn’t fully break down over Susannah’s death until Episode 7 of “The Summer I Turned Pretty.”
While Belly (Lola Tung), Steven (Sean Kaufman), Taylor (Rain Spencer), Conrad Fisher (Chris Briney), Jeremiah Fisher (Gavin Casalegno), Skye (Elsie Fisher) and Cam Cameron (David Iacono) threw a party to rebel against the sale of the Cousins Beach house by Aunt Julia (Kyra Sedgwick), Laurel remained unaware of Julia’s plans and the kids’ efforts to thwart them. It was a drunken call from Belly that tipped Laurel off as to what her children were really up to while she was away promoting her new memoir, “It’s Not Summer Without You.” The book was about meeting Susannah and living life as best friends from college.

[This interview was conducted prior to the SAG-AFTRA strike authorization.] [Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 2 Episode 7 “Love Affair.”] The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 2 may be about the love triangle between Belly (Lola Tung) and brothers Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah Fisher (Gavin Casalegno), but it’s also about grief as everyone deals with the loss of their mother, Susannah Fisher (Rachel Blanchard). Her death has had very different effects on her best friend Laurel (Jackie Chung), who is also Belly’s mom, and Susannah’s sister Julia (Kyra Sedgwick). “They don’t really speak,” Sedgwick told TV Insider of Julia and Susannah prior to the latter’s death. “It’s a wonderful arc to play because she starts out there and then she ends up in a very different place.” (Credit: Jenny Han via Instagram) By the end of Episode 7, “Love Affair,” Julia has chosen to back out of selling Susannah’...

Belly Conklin (Lola Tung) and the summer boys are back in Season 2 of Jenny Han’s television adaptation of her beloved young adult “The Summer I Turned Pretty” books. Based on the second book in the trilogy, “It’s Not Summer Without You,” Season 2 drops July 14 with three episodes launching on Amazon Prime Video. Belly’s love triangle with Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah Fisher (Gavin Casalegno) is far from resolved, as indicated last season when Belly expressed strong feelings for Conrad, but then kissed Jeremiah before ultimately ending up with Conrad again.
The official trailer for Season 2 debuted Taylor Swift’s “Back to December (Taylor’s Version)” after a short snippet of the singer’s “folklore” song “August” to showcase how the second installment will jump back and forth between the latest summer and the winter before it that Belly spent dating Conrad long distance.

The mind of Jeremiah Fisher is a lovely place.
Keeping with the theme of trying new things, The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 2 Episode 5 tried something different by putting us in the headspace of Jeremiah instead of Belly.
As the weaker aspect of this love triangle, one of whom we knew the least about, it was genuinely refreshing that we got Jeremiah's perspective and a chance to lean into the male gaze.
And what we learned was essentially some of what we knew but expanded.
He's the boy who always looked up to his brother, but now the hero worship of Conrad has dissipated naturally as they've grown older.
He's the boy who fell for Belly at the beginning of last summer and has been struggling with his position as "second best" to Conrad ever since. And he's only ever felt understood by Susannah and Belly.
We needed an hour like this for Jeremiah,...

Taylor Swift has dropped “Back to December (Taylor’s Version) in the Season 2 trailer for “The Summer I Turned Pretty.”
“Last summer felt like a dream,” Lola Tung’s voice says over shots of Isabel “Belly” Conklin (Tung) and Conrad Fisher (Chris Briney) on the beach followed by her talking with Jeremiah Fisher (Gavin Casalegno). “It was unlike any other summer.”
Season 1 of the Prime Video series, adapted from Jenny Han’s best-selling book trilogy, watched Belly visit Cousins Beach once more, but she has glowed up quite a bit in the time she spent away. Both Fisher brothers noticed, and a love triangle between the three of them ensued. Things got even more complicated when the boys discovered their mother Susannah’s cancer had relapsed. After a chaotic and dramatic debutante ball, she promised her sons that she would do a trial for treatment.

The Summer I Turned Pretty is heading back to Cousins for the next chapter in Jenny Han‘s coming-of-age tale focused on 16-year-old Belly Conklin (Lola Tung). Season 2 is set to debut on Friday, July 14 on Prime Video, with the first three episodes; the rest will be released weekly. As previewed in the first official teaser trailer (which features Taylor Swift’s “August” from folklore), above, Belly is still torn between family friends and brothers Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah Fisher (Gavin Casalegno) — though as we see at the beginning, she and Conrad are obviously “into each other.” But that doesn’t necessarily mean the end of the possibility of her and Jeremiah. And hey, no matter what, as the video tells us as things get dramatic, “nothing feels better than the summer.” (Credit: Prime Video) In Season 2, while she once counted down the days to her time spent at Cousins,...
