My Favorite TV Ships of All Time

1 Comment

Inspired by the latest AV Club Q&A and the upcoming Cupid Day, here are my favorite TV ships of all time. Generally, I only ship characters who legitimately could get together in-universe. Also, I prefer couplings that are actually healthy for the couples; pairings of folks who are wrong for each other can be entertaining, but rooting for them is something different than shipping (at least the kind that I practice). Organized by category, here are my top choices.

Best Episode of the Season: Bob’s Burgers Season 5

Leave a comment

BOB'S BURGERS: Bob needs more time to plan Linda's birthday surprise and sends her out of the house in the all-new ÒEat, Spray, LindaÓ episode of BOBÕS BURGERS airing Sunday, May 3 (7:30-8:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. BOB'S BURGERS ª and © 2015 TCFFC ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

“Eat, Spray, Linda”
Linda spends her birthday going missing and being forced to wear a plastic bag, but because this is Bob’s Burgers, it ends up being one of the best birthdays ever. In a way, it is Bob who receives the best present, as his search for his wife results in discoveries about her life that make him a little confused about how much he has been in the dark, but also make him even more in love with her.
