Due to it being February, the month of love, all my posts this month will have to do with TV couples (one of my favorite topics to write about). Today I’m listing all the couples that I rapidly shipped at first then lost interest in.

Here’s the thing about TV writers: they think the Moonlighting Curse is a real thing. And it’s not. But most of them think it is so as soon as they get a popular couple together, they almost always immediately begin the process of splitting them apart. And guess what? That annoys me. Annoyance leads to indifference, and before I know it, the show and couple I used to look forward to seeing week after week suddenly doesn’t interest me anymore and I stop watching. It’s happened with the following couples.

As a bonus, since this is my last TV couples post, here are three couples I shipped during the duration of their shows (Brooklyn Nine-Nine is still on the air so technically I’m still shipping Jake and Amy):

Thanks for reading my month of posts about TV couples. Next month my posts will resume their regular rotation of pop culture and life observations!
