Was it Clark Gable? William Powell? Cary Grant? Or someone else?

Hands down, it was William Powell! They had amazing chemistry, and they were incredibly charming and believable on screen together! I love the Thin Man series, and the two of them were wonderful!

I'm going against all of y'all and saying Clark, Cary and William are both great, but I like Clark with her best, most of all in "Test Pilot".
Deliberate cruelty is unforgivable, and the one thing I've never been guilty of.

I agree with your rocker-girl, Myrna and Clark were great in Test Pilot. Spencer Tracy was the icing on the cake.
After all, Gable and Loy were crowned King and Queen of Hollywood in 1938!

"Mr. Blandings Builds his Dream House" and "The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer" not so great??? You must have very high standards. Both movies are2000 four stars without a doubt and worth watching over and over again. The scene where Myrna Loy is picking out colors for the house in "Mr. Blandings" is priceless. That said, William Powell was easily her best co-star. The "Thin Man" series, "Libeled Lady," "Manhattan Melodrama," and several more - the chemistry between them sizzled every time they starred together. My favorite actors of all time.

Without a doubt, Clark Gable!
They weren't titled King and Queen of Hollywood for nothing! Both were skilled actors in their own respect, but when they were together on-screen, the chemistry was undeniable! -

DER! William Powell, ya silly!! While Clark Gable is hot, I think Myrna is too likeI don't know, clever for him. He needs peoples like Jean Harlowwho is smart, but just not like, as classy as Myrna. I love Cary Grant to death, but his and Myrna's comedy clashed. They were two different styles. Now we find us a Nick and Nora CharlesI mean, Will and Myrna, and WE HAVE A WINNER!!

Oh Powell all the way! I mean, Myrna was good with Clark and Cary, but Bill Powell was THE best. Their comedy suited each other, they had the best chemistry and just looked so COOL together! These two have to be my fave actors!

Hand's down, William Powell! I mean, seriously, can't you picture them as a couple. They were both classy and sophisticated. Myrna was the perfect foil for Wm.Powell. She was calm and kind and so understanding. Nora never nagged Nick. And he had the utmost respect for her, treating her like gold. I've seen and have all the Thin Man movies in addition to Evelyn Prentice, Manhattan Melodrama, Double Wedding, Love Crazy, Libeled Lady, and I Love You Again. These two incredible, remarkable people are wonderful together. I love the Golden Era of Hollywood, and Myrna and Bill's films are supreme!

You can't mention one without saying the other in the next breath. Of course it's William and Myrna. Their relationship tingles with sexual tension in their first filmManhattan Melodrama and they ride the roller coaster through all 14 movies. They are the perfect team. I would have loved to see her in a romantic film with Jimmy Stewart since he adored her so, but Powell was my favorite pairing.
