Support stupid freshness, yo.
Will probably sort these when I have time to google them all. I won't mind if someone else does though. The problem is, having a folder dedicated to "unsorted" examples is terribly amateurish.
Unsorted
- Keep The Faith, but we knew who was going to win, because between a priest and a rabbi, who is allowed to get married?
- Lynley, Simon, and Deborah in Elizabeth George's Inspector Lynley mysteries; unusual in that the loser backed down gracefully and married someone else, and that the three of them are still friends.
- This is most of the plot of the musical Blood Brothers.
- The Beach has two of them; Richard, Étienne and Françoise and Bugs, Daffy and Sal. Obviously intended to mirror each other.
- Inverted in Atelier Iris 3: Great Phantasm: one guy (Edge) and two girls (Iris and Nell). There is no love triangle, however: Edge and Iris are the couple, Nell just hangs with them.
- Vanishing Acts by Jodi Picoult: Delia, Eric and Fitz.
- Keeping The Faith has this with Ben Stiller (a Rabbi), Edward Norton (a Priest), and Jenna Elfman (a hippie). Jenna ends up with Stiller.
