What? Susan and Marcus didn't make the cut? I'm shocked!

Buffy and Spike! Michael and Fiona! Great pics for the other couples, btw. The Burn Notice summer finale was amazing, with Michael really showing his vulnerable side when Fiona was kidnapped. It was not just "business as usual". He let his emotions run the show, and that's something he's never done. Spuffy are probably on of my favorite TV couples of all time. It's weird that you said the media loves her and Angel more, every article I have ever read it is all about Buffy/Spike. lol

Good choices, particularly Lois and Clark (both).

My choices would have included:

- Duncan MacLeod and Tessa Noel (Highlander: the tv series)
- Katherine Chandler and Vincent (Beauty and the Beast)
- Ambassador K'Ehleyr and Worf (Star Trek: TNG)

Clearly I like my romance with a bit of tragedy. :-)

I'm down with 2 of those (Vincent and Katherine, and Worf and K'Ehleyr - although I've also enjoyed Whorf's other tragic romance with Jadzya Dax, and his "might have been" with Troi.)

I'd have picked Aeryn Sun and John Crighton (Farscape) as a very close second to John Sheridan and Delenn. I haven't seen a lot of these other series. If I was going after non-SF/F series (my personal preference), I'd probably have thrown in Dharma and Greg, too.

(here from the B5 group, BTW)

I gave up on Smallville a season or so ago. I couldn't take it anymore.

But YEAH to Michael and Fiona.

And what about "In Plain Sight"? Marshall Mann is definitely carrying a huge torch for Mary Shannon. I guess the series is too young to know where this is all going to go.

Smallville takes more effort to endure these last few seasons, but there have been a few moments where it's paid off.

Rent the early seasons of Highlander (if you can find them) and you'll quickly see why I included Duncan and Tessa.

Michael and Fiona are easily my favorite "current" couple. The season finale was brilliant!

I've only watched a couple of "In Plain Sight" episodes. Will have to make more of an effort. I don't want to fall behind the curve.

I'm a big fan of Wes/Lilah as well.

I never became a fan of "Farscape" (I tried) or "Highlander".
