[[folder:Unsorted]]
* Characters/WhatLiesBeyondTheWallsTheLongPatrol: They're never seen apart from each other. It's implied they were either brothers or had been friends since they were leverets.
* DarthWiki/RiseRoleplay: With Guild.
* Manga/YonaOfTheDawn: HeterosexualLifePartners: Heang-Dea and Tae-Woo, the guards from the Wind Tribe, who are [[ThoseTwoGuys nearly always together]].
* ComicBook/GenerationX2017: Benjamin and Lin are sometimes depicted this way, like on the cover of issue #1 above.
* Series/TheMayor: Jermaine and TK are rarely seen apart and spend most of their screen time bouncing inane ideas off of each other.
* Anime/ShinMazinger: SeveredHeadSports: [[{{Gonk}} Boss,]] [[ThoseTwoGuys Macha and Nuke]] play a round of soccer with Count Brocken's head. It was played for laughs since Brocken is [[LosingYourHead still alive despite this]], and was not happy about it.
* Series/TheCrew2021: Chuck and Amir, who are almost always seen together cracking jokes or working on the team's car.
* Film/TheLordOfTheRings: FatalFireworks: There's a comedic, non-fatal example: at Bilbo's birthday party, [[ThoseTwoGuys Pippin and Merry]] steal and launch one of Gandalf's firework rockets, ending up with an AshFace.
* Funny/TheWorldEndsWithYou: ...The third is [[ThoseTwoGuys Kariya and Uzuki]]... and Neku does not have such a nice reason if he tries to help. '''[[red:Shortened]]'''
* Manga/NagasareteAirantou: InnocentCohabitation: Ikuto and Suzu. There are no ThoseTwoGuys to {{lampshade|Hanging}} this, of course, but then again, the rest of the UnwantedHarem is jealous

* Characters/BigBrother16TheJury: First with Nicole and later on with Christine. '''[[red:This page has four wicks of Those Two Guys, all of them [=ZCEs=]]]'''
* Characters/SavingPrivateRyan: Mellish and Caparzo.
* Characters/UniversalWrestlingFederationNSBW: With Jado, [[HeterosexualLifePartner for almost all of his career]].
* TheBigBangTheory/TropesTToZ: Howard and Raj, and their "ersatz homosexual marriage". Although they aren't as directly connected to Sheldon, Leonard and Penny (by virtue of not being neighbors or roommates), they do manage to do activities separate from each other and the others but do play up the HoYay undertones in certain episodes.
* ShipMates/AnimeAndManga: Iwaizumi/Oikawa stories like to include [[ThoseTwoGuys Matsukawa/Hanamaki.]] '''[[red:Sub-bullet of Haikyuu!]]'''
* Fanfic/AnUnlikelySortOfParadise: Sword and Blade. '''[[red:Commented out]]'''
* WesternAnimation/TheAristocats: ThoseTwoGuys Lafayette and Napoleon also count. You can just ''hear'' Pat Buttram and George Lindsey snickering in the microphone during the [[ItMakesSenseInContext motorcycle chase scene]]. '''[[red:Sub-bullet of Large Ham]]'''
* Characters/TravisStrikesAgainNoMoreHeroes: '''[[red:Just the trope name, commented out]]'''
* Series/CaesarsChallenge: Ahmad and the various Centurions (most recognizably Dan Doherty) would spend a few minutes with jokes and props before starting the game.
* ShooOutTheClowns/AnimatedFilms: ''WesternAnimation/MonsterHouse'' both plays this trope straight and downplays it. The movie takes on a darker, serious tone when [[ThoseTwoGuys Officers Landers and Lister]] are eaten by the house. But Chowder, the comic relief of the main trio, is present throughout the rest of the story. Despite this, he's in no mood for jokes, being scared out of his mind. As for the two cops, it's revealed that everyone who was eaten by the house is alive and well and they return to deliver some banter during the credits.
* Characters/BodyguardUK2018: Always seen with DS Louise while doing CTC duties.
* Anime/TenchiMuyo: One of the first anime series to introduce the trope. Tenchi's two schoolmates serve the purpose to various degrees on Earth, as do Ayeka's bodyguards, Azaka and Kamidake off-Earth.
* Manga/PrincessTutu: Mai and Yuma are almost never seen apart and provide exposition at times.

* Characters/KaguyaSamaLoveIsWarSecondYears: They always appear together, and very little is known about them as individuals other than what their parents' jobs are (Hinokuchi has a parent that's an advertising executive, and Suruga's parent is the president of a famous IT company).
* Characters/TheMalteseFalcon1941: With Dundy. '''[[red:Commented out]]'''
* TrapDoor: Short [[Recap/StarWarsResistanceS0E4WhenThievesDropBy "When Thieves Drop By"]] reveals that [[ThoseTwoGuys Flix and Orka]] have a trapdoor installed at the front of their shop, the Office of Acquisitions, for the purposes of dropping would-be thieves down it. Brothers and criminals Narb and Nod both separately fall victim to it.
* TwoGuysAndAGirl: ''WesternAnimation/TheRoadToElDorado'' starts with [[ThoseTwoGuys Miguel and Tulio]] until Chel joins them later and flirts with them both. They agree that Chell is "off limits" but Tulio ends up making out with her anyway

I think that this trope should be renamed to avoid misuse, as the name is ambiguous.

* IllPretendIDidntHearThat: ''Series/BlakesSeven''. In "Killer", Blake teleports down to help a Federation base deal with a deadly virus. When he informs a [[ThoseTwoGuys couple of research technicians]] that he's the Federation's most wanted [[RebelLeader political criminal]], they reply that they can hardly be expected to remember people's names.

* Manga/FoodWars: Daigo and Shoji, the two previously-unnamed characters from the Polaris Dormitory, always appear together and has very little characterization beyond their role as the dorm's crowd filler. So far, they are the only ones who have not been shown any specialty skill area, didn't make the Fall Classic, and, aside from quick shots of them in a kitchen to show they ''do'' actually cook, we've never seen any food they've made.
