Top 10 TV ships
Yes, I know I did a shippy post a while back, but this one is focusing only on my TV ships. Besides I feel like it, blah blah blah....
So, here's Dangermousie's Top 10 (no order):
1 John/Aeryn, Farscape: My TV OTP to end all TV OTPs. They are strong and co-dependent and they mess each other up and make each other better, and there is funny, and hurt, and breath-taking chemistry, and some unimaginable sacrifices.
2 Logan/Veronica, Veronica Mars: My newest OTP. There's snark and there angst and there's HOT. How can you not love them when she turned him in for murder and his Daddy tried to make a BBQ out of her. And all that after they started dating.
3 Max/Liz, Roswell: I don't usually go for the "two very nice people in love with each other" thing, but when you have unbelievable angst, and destiny and alien hussies and a very sweet and young and passionate vibe, count me in.
4 Michael/Maria, Roswell: the snarky, inperfect couple of Roswell. If M/L was your dream relationship when you were younger, M/M was something else. They really worked, too (until the writers got "creative" in S3, but thankfully they fixed it by the end), and there were some amazingly unexpected romantic gestures that made me swoon.
5 Mal/Inara, Firefly: they took angst and UST to a whole new level. I just wanted to scream at them to do it already. Apparently I am not the only one as someone actually yelled it out loud during the midnight showing of Serenity.
6 Simon/Kaylee, Firefly: they are really nice, and really sweet and just perfect for each other and I would say more, but I am too busy dying of the awwwwww...
7 Helo/Boomer, BSG: Star-crossed don't come more impossible than "I am in love with a robot whose species wiped out humanity" or "I betrayed my race for a human and actually developed free will." So yeah.
8 Lee/Kara, BSG: Or would be, if they ever hooked up. Why? Because best friends+sexiness=hot.
9 Buffy/Angel, BtVS: Oh, I used to ship for them like crazy. All that gorgeous, sex-charged impossibility with so. much. angst.
10 Willow/Oz, BtVS: back before Willow inexplicably became lesbian (seriously, how hard is it to look up the word "bisexual?"), I thought Willow and Oz were just the cutest thing ever.
First TV Ship: Locksley/Marian, Robin of Sherwood: I was 8 when I first fell in love with this UK series. I rewatched it recently, and guess what, 80s hair aside, Robin and Marian are still angsty, smart and very very HOT together.
Most hardworking OTP: Nathan/Haley, One Tree Hill: Because that show is pretty dreadful and the only reason I can even tolerate it is the cuteness that is Nathan and Haley, a.k.a. couple who thinks 17 is not to young to marry. It helps that they are the only cast members not made out of wood. They aren't going to make Romeo and Juliet weep with envy, but at least they are tolerable, which is more than I can say for the rest of that mess.
