00:00I fixed your light.
00:01Welcome to Ms. Mojo.
00:03And today, we're counting down our picks for the TV romances that took Slowburn to a whole new level.
00:09You just need to hear it.
00:13I love you, boy.
00:16Number 20. Carly Shay and Freddie Benson.
00:20iCarly.
00:21Can you believe it took a staggering 15 years,
00:24across both the original Nickelodeon run and the modern Paramount Plus revival,
00:28for these childhood best friends to finally realize they belong together?
00:32Is this really happening?
00:35I hope so.
00:36It took us long enough.
00:43Throughout those early seasons,
00:45Freddie's notoriously persistent crush was a constant source of awkward comedy throughout the original series.
00:51Fast forward a decade or so,
00:52and now, with all that history,
00:55they knew each other inside out.
00:56And now they had real romantic chemistry on top of it.
01:00You're the person who I can always count on.
01:03You're the person who makes me laugh.
01:07And you're the person who pushes me to do the things that I need to do,
01:10even when I really don't want to.
01:12Seeing them finally go from childhood besties to an actual couple was such a satisfying payoff,
01:17especially after fans had been waiting more than a decade to see it.
01:21I didn't expect to fall for you,
01:24but you were right there all along.
01:29I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:32Number 19.
01:33Amy Sosa and Jonah Sims.
01:35Superstore.
01:36Starting as cynical retail co-workers who constantly rubbed each other the wrong way,
01:40Amy and Jonah spent six seasons evolving from witty bickerers into undeniable soulmates.
01:46She's interested in him because he's cute, not because of his bad ideas.
01:50Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:52You think I'm cute?
01:53No, I do not think you're cute.
01:55I think you look like a person who is cute.
01:58Corporate bureaucracy, failed marriages,
02:01contrasting socioeconomic backgrounds,
02:03and an abrupt cross-country move
02:05threw massive obstacles in their path before they could ever find true stability.
02:10Fresh start?
02:11Fresh start.
02:14All right, so...
02:19No, really, they may have a record number of almost moments.
02:23When they finally reunited in the series finale,
02:26it delivered an incredible emotional payoff
02:28that rewarded fans for years of agonizing slow burn tension.
02:32Their journey proved that true love can blossom under fluorescent lights,
02:36transforming retail misery into a heartwarming happily ever after for the ages.
02:41That's a picture of my honeymoon. Sorry about that.
02:43Number 18. Emily Fields and Allison De Laurentiis.
02:47Pretty Little Liars.
02:48Spanning seven seasons of mystery, betrayal, and constant terror in Rosewood,
02:53this relationship evolved from a toxic high school dynamic
02:56into an unbreakable emotional anchor.
02:59I always made you think that...
03:01your feelings for me were totally one-sided.
03:05That wasn't true.
03:08Those kisses weren't just for practice.
03:10Allison's early season manipulation,
03:13her mysterious disappearance,
03:14and the endless web of lies orchestrated by A
03:17meant that true romance had to weather a staggering amount of trauma.
03:21When they finally found their way back to each other as adults,
03:24it provided an immense emotional release for fans
03:27who had suffered alongside them through every single twist and turn.
03:30You make the world a better place because you see the good in it.
03:36And you make me a better woman because you searched for one.
03:41Their journey from complicated teenage obsession to raising a family together
03:45proved that even the darkest secrets could eventually lead to love.
03:49I want to do this together.
03:54What do you mean together?
03:58I want to be a family.
04:00Number 17.
04:02Charles Chuck Bartowski and Sarah Walker.
04:04Chuck.
04:05What started as a strictly professional arrangement between a geeky spy asset
04:09and his gorgeous CIA handler
04:11slowly became the emotional center of the series.
04:26Sarah was trained to keep people at a distance
04:29while Chuck had spent most of his life avoiding danger altogether.
04:32So neither exactly arrived equipped for a healthy relationship.
04:35Their contrasting personalities made the romance work.
04:39His optimism challenged her guardedness
04:41while her confidence pushed him far beyond his comfort zone.
04:45What?
04:46Uh, what?
04:46Chuck, I fell for you a long, long time ago
04:50after you fixed my phone
04:51and before you started defusing bombs with computer viruses.
04:55So yes.
04:57Yes.
04:58Even after they finally became a couple,
05:00the show refused to make things easy.
05:02Yet, despite every bizarre obstacle,
05:05it only reinforced how instinctively these two kept choosing one another.
05:09Might as well bring this.
05:11This is going to be a long flight.
05:12I'm sure we can find something else to pass the time.
05:17It's not the end.
05:18It's not the end.
05:19Number 16.
05:21Sean Spencer and Juliette Jules O'Hara.
05:23Psych.
05:24For six seasons,
05:25these two managed to turn their mutual attraction into an Olympic sport,
05:29circling the obvious while solving increasingly ridiculous crimes.
05:33I had a vision of us being married.
05:35I know it's probably this undercover thing we're going to do,
05:38but it might have been a vision from our future.
05:42Mr. and Mrs. Juliette Spencer O'Hara.
05:46Sean's fake psychic abilities were the biggest complication
05:49because his entire relationship with Juliette rested on a secret he desperately wanted to keep.
05:55Juliette, meanwhile,
05:56was one of the few people capable of seeing through Sean's immaturity
06:00without killing his playful spirit.
06:02I've been thinking about getting a car.
06:08And you're not thinking something practical or sensible.
06:12God, no.
06:12I'm not throwing in the towel altogether.
06:16That contrast gave their romance its charm.
06:18When Juliette finally discovered the truth,
06:21the fallout could have destroyed everything between them.
06:24Instead, their eventual reconciliation allowed the show to prove that Sean could grow up.

06:41Number 15.
06:42Chandler Bing and Monica Geller.
06:44Friends.
06:45If Ross and Rachel were the top-billed couple of friends,
06:48Chandler and Monica are the show's sleeper hit.
06:51This is Monica.
06:52Hi, I'm Ross's little sister.
06:55Okay.
06:56The two have known each other for years and demonstrate a clear attraction to each other
07:00on several occasions.
07:02There's a nuclear holocaust.
07:03I'm the last man on Earth.
07:06Would you go out with me?
07:10Eh.
07:12However, nothing really materializes,
07:14mostly due to the close-knit nature of their group of friends,
07:17as well as the unfortunate jellyfish incident.
07:20Yet a surprise hookup at the end of season four,
07:22on the eve of Ross's wedding in London,
07:25leads to a loving and lasting relationship,
07:27beating out every other one in the series.
07:30Honestly, if anyone had found their lobster,
07:32it's these two.
07:33You are the most beautiful woman in the room tonight.
07:37Really?
07:38Are you kidding?
07:38You're the most beautiful woman in most rooms.
07:43Number 14.
07:45Patrick Jane and Teresa Lisbon.
07:47The mentalist.
07:48These two spent years communicating with the kind of effortless familiarity
07:51that made everyone around them wonder when they would finally catch up.
07:55Good luck, Teresa.
07:57I love you.
07:58Lisbon is practical, principled, and grounded,
08:01while Jane is a charming disaster carrying an enormous amount of grief.
08:05Her ability to challenge him without trying to change him
08:08became one of the relationship's defining strengths.
08:11If I didn't have this ring, I would never have met you.
08:15So in a sense, uh,
08:19it has the potential to represent my future as well.
08:22The biggest complication was Jane's fixation on Red John,
08:26which consumed nearly every part of his life.
08:28Once that chapter closed,
08:30he finally had to confront what was waiting on the other side.
08:33Their airport reunion remains unforgettable.
08:35After all that revenge and deception,
08:38Jane finally chose a future instead.
08:41The truth is,
08:43I love you.
08:48Woo!
08:49You can't imagine how good that feels to say out loud,
08:51but it scares me,
08:53and it is the truth.
08:55Number 13.
08:56Emma Swan and Killian Jones,
08:58aka Captain Hook.
09:00Once upon a time.
09:01Hook and Emma had enough baggage between them
09:03to fill an entire pirate ship.
09:05He arrived as a swashbuckling former villain,
09:08while Emma harbored some serious trust issues.
09:10I never thought I'd be capable of letting go of
09:13my first love,
09:14of my Mila,
09:16to believe that I couldn't find someone else.
09:20That is until I met you.
09:21Over time,
09:22they helped each other shed their armor,
09:24exposing the softer side they usually kept hidden.
09:27Hook's transformation was particularly satisfying
09:30because Emma never simply rescued him from his darkness.
09:32He repeatedly made the choice to become better himself.
09:36You traded your ship for me?
09:41Aye.
09:42And because this is Once Upon a Time,
09:44that growth involved curses,
09:46time travel,
09:47alternate worlds,
09:48and a trip to the underworld.
09:50Their eventual wedding felt perfectly suited to a romance
09:53that had survived practically every realm imaginable.
09:56But just because you learn
09:59that you come from true love,
10:03doesn't mean you believe that you'll ever find it.
10:10But thanks to you,
10:13now I have.
10:16Number 12.
10:17Fran Fine and Maxwell Sheffield.
10:19The Nanny.
10:20Were these two designed to annoy each other
10:22into falling in love,
10:24she breezed into his Manhattan townhouse
10:26with loud outfits,
10:27louder opinions,
10:28and absolutely no interest in behaving
10:31like the refined nanny he expected.
10:33She and Mr. Sheffield may not always see eye to eye,
10:37but at the risk of overstepping,
10:39I don't think I've seen him or the children
10:40this happy for a very long time.
10:43Maxwell, meanwhile,
10:44spent years insisting their relationship
10:46had to remain professional,
10:48even as his jealousy suggested otherwise.
10:50The constant interruptions,
10:53misunderstandings,
10:53unsuitable dates,
10:55and the legendary Thing
10:56only made their inability to admit
10:58what was obvious increasingly hilarious.
11:01Oh my God,
11:02you're taking back the Thing?
11:05Please, Mr. Fine,
11:06I mean, in the heat of the moment,
11:07sometimes people just blurt things out.
11:09You blurt it prematurely?
11:11When Maxwell finally proposed in season five,
11:14the sitcom got to cash in
11:16years of romantic tension at once.
11:18Better still,
11:19marriage didn't drain their chemistry.
11:21Fran remained Fran,
11:22Maxwell remained Maxwell,
11:24and the bickering continued.
11:26I keep waiting for the shush.
11:28I didn't shush you.
11:30Yeah, but you were about to.
11:31I had that feeling you were holding back.
11:33Any minute,
11:34there was gonna be a big shush coming.
11:36There it is!
11:36There it is!
11:37Number 11.
11:39Leo Fitz and Gemma Simmons,
11:41Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
11:42Fitzsimmons began as a science duo
11:44who could finish each other's sentences
11:45before realizing they were finishing
11:47each other's equations.
11:49I couldn't live if you didn't.
11:50Well, I feel the same way.
11:52There has to be another way.
11:53You're taking it.
11:53Why would you make me do this?
11:55You're my best friend in the world!
11:57Yeah, you're more than that, Gemma.
11:58Their friendship was so affectionate
12:00that the romantic realization
12:01felt less like a twist
12:03and more like something viewers
12:04had been waiting for the characters to notice.
12:06Then the show decided happiness
12:08was apparently illegal.
12:09Alien monoliths,
12:11alternate timelines,
12:12brain injuries,
12:13evil versions of themselves,
12:15and separation across space and time
12:17tested them.
12:18Because we have crossed galaxies,
12:19we have traveled through time,
12:21we have survived the bottom of the Atlantic
12:22just so we could be together.
12:23Now a love like that,
12:24that is stronger than any curse.
12:27What made their story stand out
12:28was that neither character's devotion
12:30erased who they were
12:31outside the relationship.
12:32They remained scientists,
12:34teammates,
12:35and occasionally complete nerds,
12:37even as the universe
12:38tried hard to keep them apart.
12:40We've survived the bottom of the Atlantic,
12:42we've crossed the galaxy
12:44more than once
12:46just to be together.
12:49So,
12:50a love like that
12:52is stronger than any curse.
12:54And you and I,
12:55we are...
12:56We're unstoppable together.
12:58Number 10.
12:59Fox Mulder and Dana Scully.
13:01The X-Files.
13:02Now these two practically invented
13:04the art of making viewers wait.
13:06Mulder, I wouldn't put myself
13:07on the line for anybody but you.
13:15If there's an iced tea in that bag,
13:18it could be love.
13:19The believer and skeptic
13:20were thrown together
13:21to investigate aliens,
13:23monsters,
13:24conspiracies,
13:24and government cover-ups.
13:26Yet the most intriguing mystery
13:27was often the one
13:28happening between them.
13:30Scully challenged Mulder's
13:31leaps of faith,
13:32while Mulder encouraged her
13:33to question the explanation
13:34she could actually prove.
13:36Well, it seems to me
13:38that the best relationships,
13:40the ones that last,
13:41are frequently the ones
13:43that are rooted in friendship.
13:45You know,
13:46one day you
13:47look at the person
13:48and you see something more
13:50than you did the night before.
13:52That intellectual friction
13:53gradually gave way
13:54to extraordinary trust.
13:56So when they finally shared
13:57their iconic New Year's Eve kiss,
13:59we felt the weight
14:00of years of restraint.
14:01Even with alien abductions
14:03and government conspiracies
14:04everywhere,
14:04their relationship remained
14:06remarkably grounded
14:07in one simple thing.
14:08They believed in each other.
14:10All the choices
14:13would then lead
14:14to this very moment.
14:17One wrong turn
14:18and we wouldn't be
14:21sitting here together.
14:22Number 9.
14:23Richard Castle
14:24and Kate Beckett
14:25Castle.
14:26The eponymous Rick Castle
14:27is a novelist
14:28who becomes intrigued
14:29by New York police detective
14:31Kate Beckett.
14:31I've gotten used to you
14:33pulling my pigtails.
14:34So he decides to study her
14:36for inspiration
14:37for his new series,
14:38assisting her on cases
14:39by using his knowledge
14:40of storytelling
14:41and characters.
14:42The sparks fly constantly
14:44between these two,
14:45with their witty
14:45and tension-filled dialogue
14:47being a real highlight
14:48to the show.
14:49Their chemistry
14:49is so good
14:50that many assume
14:51they're in a relationship
14:52before they actually are.
14:54You're seriously asking me
14:55to your place
14:56in the Hamptons?
14:56I promise.
14:57Not funny stuff.
14:58Misunderstandings,
14:59secrets,
15:00other partners,
15:00and even a bullet
15:02or two serve
15:03to keep them apart.
15:04But Casket finally happens
15:05at the end of Season 4,
15:07though it is far
15:07from smooth sailing
15:09after that.
15:09Beckett, what do you want?
15:11You.
15:18Number 8.
15:19Gregory House
15:20and Lisa Cuddy
15:21House.
15:22Another titular protagonist,
15:24Dr. Gregory House
15:25is the limping,
15:26ill-tempered genius physician
15:27whose maverick inclinations
15:29and constant disrespect
15:30are a constant headache
15:32for his hospital's
15:33Dean of Medicine,
15:34Dr. Lisa Cuddy.
15:35Stop staring at my ass
15:37when you think
15:37I'm not looking,
15:38showing up at restaurants
15:39where I happen to be
15:40on a date
15:41and fantasizing
15:42about me in the shower.
15:44That ship sailed
15:45long ago, House.
15:47Get over it.
15:48Though they clearly
15:49irritate each other,
15:50there's a definite flirtation
15:52that goes along
15:53with that annoyance,
15:54and they each find
15:55the other challenging
15:56on many levels.
15:57I love you.
16:02I wish I didn't.
16:06But I can't help it.
16:09However,
16:10their professional relationship,
16:11as well as House's inability
16:12to be open with other people,
16:14keeps them from becoming closer.
16:16It takes six seasons
16:17for them both
16:18to lower their barriers
16:19and start a real relationship.
16:21Unfortunately,
16:21House continues
16:22to struggle with intimacy.
16:23leading to their breakup
16:25less than a season later.
16:26You can't love someone
16:28without making yourself
16:30open to their problems,
16:32their fears.
16:35And you're not willing
16:36to do that.
16:37Number 7.
16:38Temperance Bones Brennan
16:40and Celie Booth.
16:41Bones.
16:42We did it.
16:43Buck and Wanda were damned.
16:45Buck was more dashing than you.
16:47I mean, Buck drove a motorcycle.
16:48Temperance Brennan
16:49is a forensic anthropologist
16:51who partners with
16:52FBI agent Celie Booth
16:53to solve cases
16:54using her skill set,
16:56earning her the nickname
16:57Bones from Booth.
16:58Goodnight, Bones.
17:00Goodnight, Booth.
17:02The duo is initially
17:03quite at odds
17:04due to Booth's
17:05more personable attitude
17:06and Bones'
17:07closed-off logical approach,
17:08but they gradually
17:09warm to each other.
17:10While their attraction
17:11is rather obvious
17:12and goes on for years
17:14filled with sexual tension,
17:15it isn't until the end
17:17of season six
17:17that they hook up,
17:18leading to both
17:19a relationship
17:20and a pregnancy.
17:22I'm pregnant.
17:23You're the father.
17:28Number 6.
17:29Amy Santiago
17:30and Jake Peralta.
17:32Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
17:33These two detectives
17:34from Brooklyn's
17:35fictional precinct
17:36couldn't be more different.
17:37Amy Santiago
17:38is obsessive
17:39and a little uptight,
17:40while Jake Peralta
17:41is lazy
17:42and rarely takes
17:43anything seriously.
17:44Oh, and there is
17:46one more rule.
17:47No matter what happens,
17:50you're not allowed
17:51to fall in love with me.
17:52Won't be a problem.
17:54However, opposites attract,
17:55and these two are unable
17:57to resist each other forever.
17:58You're a great detective,
18:00and they'd be lucky
18:00to have you.
18:01The partners love
18:02to tease and compete
18:03with each other,
18:04while also bringing out
18:05the best in one another,
18:06with Amy motivating Jake
18:08to take things more seriously,
18:10and he helping her
18:11loosen up and have fun.
18:12It takes until
18:13the end of season two
18:14for them to finally kiss
18:15and admit their feelings,
18:17beginning a relationship
18:18at the start of season three,
18:19albeit not under
18:21ideal circumstances.
18:23I hope it wasn't a mistake.
18:24Hope it wasn't a mistake.
18:26Title of your sex tape.
18:27Title of our sex tape.
18:29Number 5.
18:31Style Stilinski
18:32and Lydia Martin
18:33Teen Wolf
18:34Some romances
18:35don't always have
18:36a mutual attraction
18:37to start with,
18:37and that's definitely
18:38the case with these two.
18:40Style Stilinski
18:41has had a crush
18:41on Lydia Martin
18:42since grade school,
18:43but she barely knows
18:44he exists at first.
18:46And I'm also pretty sure
18:47that I'm the only one
18:48who knows how smart
18:49you really are.
18:49That changes, however,
18:51as the two grow closer
18:52due to the supernatural
18:53effects of mutual friends,
18:55and Lydia's gradual discovery
18:56that Styles knows her
18:57better than most people do.
18:59However,
18:59the two remain apart
19:00for a long time,
19:02due to reasons mundane,
19:03like relationships
19:04with other people,
19:05and supernatural,
19:06like erased memories.
19:07Just like Alex,
19:09you're gonna forget me.
19:10I won't.
19:11However,
19:12it isn't until
19:13the show's final season
19:14that the pair
19:14gets together at last.
19:16I didn't stand back.
19:18You don't have to.
19:21Number 4.
19:23Ben Wyatt and Leslie Knope
19:24Parks and Recreation
19:26First impressions
19:27don't always last,
19:28as was the case
19:29with this adorable couple.
19:31The Pawnee Parks Department's
19:32Leslie Knope
19:33hates Ben Wyatt at first,
19:35due to his audit
19:36and proposed cuts,
19:37which she sees as heartless.
19:38However,
19:39Ben proves far from heartless,
19:41and the duo soon
19:42warms to each other,
19:43with a very cute
19:44mutual crush.
19:45He told me that he liked me,
19:46and I'm gonna go
19:47make out with him right now,
19:48on his face.
19:49They are reluctant
19:50to do anything about it
19:51at first,
19:52since he is her boss.
19:54Oh, well,
19:54he's not here.
19:55He took off.
19:56Okay.
19:59Eventually,
19:59they begin
20:00a secret relationship,
20:01and while this
20:02doesn't last long,
20:03they ultimately decide
20:04to rekindle the romance,
20:06no matter the consequences.
20:08And really,
20:08aren't we all looking
20:09for that person
20:10to like us
20:11and love us?
20:11I know how I feel,
20:13and I want to be with you.
20:15But I'm done
20:16steamrolling people.
20:19This is how I feel.
20:20How do you feel?
20:20How do you feel?
20:25How do you feel?
20:25Number 3.
20:26Damon Salvatore
20:27and Elena Gilbert.
20:28The Vampire Diaries.
20:30Not all romances
20:31involving vampires
20:32are terrible.
20:33You know who we mean.
20:34You must be Elena.
20:37I'm Damon,
20:38Stefan's brother.
20:39Damon Salvatore
20:40at first appears
20:41to be a self-absorbed
20:42bloodsucker
20:43who's only interested
20:44in revenge
20:44on his brother,
20:45whose own romance
20:46with Caroline
20:47was also a contender
20:48for this list.
20:48But Elena Gilbert's
20:50willingness to stand up
20:51to Damon
20:51and her ability
20:52to see past
20:53the front he puts up
20:54gradually leads
20:55to a friendship
20:55and then a romance
20:57in season 4.
20:58I wanted to dance
20:59with you today.
21:01Their relationship
21:02is far from simple
21:03thereafter,
21:04enduring countless
21:05dark trials,
21:06powerful emotional
21:07transformations,
21:08and supernatural tests
21:09of absolute loyalty.
21:11But that's part of
21:12what makes them
21:12so captivating.
21:14I love you,
21:15Damon.
21:17I love you.
21:19Number 2.
21:21Luke Danes
21:21and Lorelei Gilmore
21:23Gilmore Girls

21:26It's just a possibility.

21:29of the local diner,
21:30Luke Danes initially serves
21:31to help Lorelei Gilmore

21:34and banter
21:35with great alacrity.
21:36And this person.
21:37Oh, is it me?
21:38Is it me?
21:39But over time,
21:40she comes to rely on him
21:41as a friend
21:42and with the potential
21:43for more.
21:44Though his attraction
21:44to her definitely
21:45began earlier,
21:46judging by his
21:47remembrance of
21:48their first meeting.
21:49You kept this
21:49in your wallet?
21:51You kept this
21:52in your wallet?

21:55Their relationship
21:55becomes more than platonic
21:57by the end of season four.
21:58And while they have
21:59several breakups
22:00and difficulties thereafter,

22:02end up happily together,

24:32Number 1.
24:34Daphne Moon
24:34and Niles Crane.
24:36Frasier.
24:36For seven agonizing,
24:38hilarious seasons,
24:40Niles Crane carried
24:41a torch for Daphne
24:42while she remained
24:43completely oblivious.
24:44Sometimes the most
24:45powerful feelings
24:46can come from the promise
24:47of what might happen.
24:48Just the anticipation
24:49is enough to make
24:50all the little hairs
24:51on your neck
24:51stand on end.
24:53Indeed,
24:53the showrunners
24:54kept us on our toes
24:55with Daphne's
24:56other relationships,
24:57Niles' disastrous
24:58marriage to Maris,
24:59and his painfully awkward
25:01attempts to move on,
25:02all of which created
25:03constant opportunities
25:04for the fantasy
25:05to completely collapse.
25:07Then came the wedding episode,
25:08when Niles finally
25:10abandoned restraint
25:11and confessed his feelings
25:12at exactly the wrong time,
25:14or best.
25:15But not a day has gone by
25:16when I haven't thought of you.
25:18Your smile,
25:19your beautiful eyes,
25:21what it would be like
25:22to hold your hands
25:23and ask you the question
25:24I never dared ask.
25:25Watching Daphne slowly realize
25:27what Niles had meant to her
25:29gave the romance
25:29another layer
25:30beyond his long-standing crush.
25:32Their wedding felt like
25:33the ultimate,
25:34triumphant exhale
25:35for millions of devoted fans.
25:38He never said
25:39you may kiss the bride.
25:40You may kiss the bride.
25:48Which slow burn TV couple
25:49had the ultimate,
25:50biggest payoff?
