I didn't really like it when Ross and Rachel weren't together and insulted/made fun of each other even if those were some pretty funny moments. They were meant to be together! Speaking of Friends, Joey and Phoebe really should have become a couple. They got along so well and there were even hints. I like Mike but Phoebe really should have ended up with Joey. Maybe it would be a little silly for all of the friends to become couples, but I'd take Joey x Phoebe over Chandler x Monica any day (not that the latter aren't great together).

QFT! I remember I was so happy when they finally got together (the first time), Julie was nice but we all knew that the person Ross truly loved was Rachel.

Speaking of Friends, Joey and Phoebe really should have become a couple. They got along so well and there were even hints. I like Mike but Phoebe really should have ended up with Joey.
I agree with you again. It was clear Joey liked Phoebe and that Phoebe liked Joey, I have no clue why they never dated…or why the writers didn’t want for them to become a couple.

Maybe it would be a little silly for all of the friends to become couples, but I'd take Joey x Phoebe over Chandler x Monica any day (not that the latter aren't great together).
Maybe the writers chose Chandler x Monica over Joey x Phoebe because they latter was predictable and the audience was kind of expecting it whereas Chandle x Monica was unexpected and a surprise for the audience.

The last one though is one that sometimes works, but at times annoys me a lot. :/

From what series is that paring?
Family Guy, of course. Even though they're both male, Stewie does have homosexual tendencies toward Brian. Whether they're friends or enemies, they're hilarious together.

Time to add another pairing to my list:

Donna x Harvey from Suits.

Regarding that pairing…I so want to know about the secret ritual and what they do with that can opener!

Oooh, love this thread. It's so interesting reading what people like. Especially since, despite my normal dedication to pairings. I don't strongly root for a lot of pairings in TV show's, even though I always end up doing it in books and comics. Maybe it's my way of pouting about the times things didn't go my way so many times, and because shows I really get into have a nasty habit of getting cancelled.(Firefly, Farscape, etc)

Castle & Beckett from Castle
This is the only one that jumps to mind lately.

The only other ones I can recall are some of the older ones, which I can probably only remember due to a lingering sense of anger and betrayal.

Angel & Cordelia from Angel
I really liked this pairing and was not at all pleased with that way it ended. Pretty much the worst case scenario for a shipper. I'd describe what happened in a spoiler tag, but even after all this time, I don't think I have the heart.

John Crichton & Aeryn Sun from Farscape
One of the problems with liking Sci-Fi is when it takes a perfectly good pairing and throws a little bit too much "weirdness" at it. A situation where you get involved in a prolonged love triangle between your girlfriend and a exact duplicate of yourself should just never occur. Ever.

-----------------------------------------------

I feel like there should be more but apparently I have somehow erased the rest from my memory somehow, which is probably for the best.

After watching some episodes of Sherlock, I need to update my list and add another pairing:

Sherlock x Molly
I know the chances of this pairing becoming canon are very slim, but I do love Molly’s one-sided love for Sherlock and although he doesn’t love her, I know Sherlock cares a lot about her. :hbunny
