Awesome! They are about number 4-5 in my book too :)

That list skipped Buffy/Angel and Abby/Luka :)

Thanks! That's probably the nicest and least harsh comment I've gotten so far, LOL! Yeah, Sawyer and Kate are pretty cool and it was kind of hard to choose between either Kate and Jack or Kate and Sawyer, but ultimately I can't say no to a southern gent with blonde hair and blue eyes, lulz...

Yeah - my sister wanted me to add Buffy and Angel in there but it seemed like they've had their place before on a list so I wanted to add some new faces but yeah, it was a tough list. I love Abby and Luka and let me tell you, it's hard to sift through all these TV couples. You can't win with people, lol! Everyone's got a favourite couple and I totally understand that...*whines* It's just soo hard, is all...

But yeah. Thanks Naika7! *hugs* Sorry. I ramble.

Really? People must take these things really seriously lolz :) I mean it's your list, do whatever you want...These things are really subjective..

And you are right, toooo many couples. But I love what you wrote about Kate/Sawyer. Yeah, there is this stupid triangle, but feelings between Kate and Sawyer are just on a different level, it's 100% physical+emotional connection, so in sync. Whatever reasons Kate might have for liking Jack, for choosing Jack, they don't even matter in the face of Kate/Sawyer...which will remain as their foundation.

LOL - yeah some people do. If they want to rant and yell at me, that's fine. For now. I shall rise above it! Yeah it is my list! Screw dem! I mean, if they don't like, why don't they make their own huh? I don't get it, hahaha! I guess it's healthy?

Yeah, there are way too many couples to choose from and to dissect them? Way too much. That love triangle really kills me sometimes because I really like the dynamic btwn Kate and Sawyer but then there are times when Kate and Jack come off really tender and sweet but confuses the hell out of me so I stick to my Skate ship! I cannot wait to see what happens next, especially with their relationship and how it'll pull out into the coming episodes.

Good choices! You really got the classics in there...

Sawyer and Kate are so freaking cute, I can't wait until they reunite. ♥ I'm glad they ranked on your list!

Aww, thank you! I was trying to get as many good ones in there and I'm glad I made the cut for some of them. I concur - Sawyer and Kate are soo freaking cute and I love them to bits! I really want them back together and I cannot wait to see their reunion - perhaps a hanky will be needed? LOL...

No surprise there, the media loves them. They're not my favorite (Jin and Sun are) but out of the triangle skate makes the most sense to me.

Well, I'm glad you enjoyed reading my article. I was contemplating adding Jin and Sun in there but it seemed unfair to put two couples from one TV show up and then not add other couples from other shows in there. Maybe next time but thanks for reading it! :)

Ah it's no problem, I was just sharing my personal preference :)
I liked what you wrote about Sawyer and Kate. It definitely stays true to what we have seen develop on screen. Thanks for sharing.

I was enjoying your list and was thinking in my head "aw, the way this list is going maybe monica and chandler are going to end up on it..."

I was taken aback when I saw Ross and Rachel instead. And even more shocked when Monica and Chandler didn't make it on the second list...

But that's ok, it's just personal preference :) I just get tired of the whole will they or won't they thing and that's why I ♥ Monica&Chandler so much more than Ross and Rachel, but I can understand why they're on the list.

Aww, thanks for liking the way the list was going in your head in the beginning but sorry for having it turn out the way it did, LOL! I was thinking Chandler and Monica but lists are hard. I mean, ranking them is even harder. I didn't want to add two couples from the same TV show but I felt it wouldn't have been diverse in the relationships we see. I like showing the difficulties in relationship and with that context, I felt Ross and Rachel were strong in that department. Chandler and Monica - it came off more natural and such an easy effort, like they just fell right in. Sure, they had a few obstacles but not as much as Ross and Rachel, you know?

I like what you said and input is greatly appreciated and maybe I'll consider them for next year! Thanks for reading my article! :)

While I definitely prefer Kate/Sawyer over Kate/Jack, I don't think Kate deserves Sawyer. They started out very similarly (remember the game of "I Never" in "Outlaws"), but Sawyer has grown past her. The maxim Sawyer spouted of "You run, I con. A leopard doesn't change his spots" is only half true - she's still running, but he's become a hero.

I do see your point and how the tables have turned for Kate and Sawyer but I felt like, there's still some underlying stuff there between them that needs to be out in the open. She's doing stuff for Sawyer when she got off the island? She could have just forgotten about him like how Jack brushed the others back on the island off his shoulder but Kate's different. She is difficult to decipher but I think Sawyer gets her most and no matter how his character is changing. He still longs for her and it's emminent this season in his behaviour.

Might I add that I love that he's becoming a hero. You never would have guessed it in a million years from the pilot episode that this is who he is now!

Thanks for reading my article though! :)
