SHIPSHAPE_caskett
THE COUPLE | Castle's Rick and Kate
THE LATEST | Rick and Kate are being all cute and lazy in their PJs, gearing up for a good "font," when Kate gets called to the precinct — and subsequently is later abducted, leaving Rick a nervous wreck.
AWW! | During a moment apart from her captors, Kate pens a "goodbye" letter to Rick, telling him their relationship is the best thing that ever happened to her and that he is an amazing man. She signs the letter "Always," and we suddenly have so many emotions.
THE FORECAST | Sunny! Kate eventually gets out and is reunited with Rick, where she tells him how he was "with" her throughout her crucible.
the-blacklist-tom-liz-jolene
THE COUPLE | The Blacklist's Liz/Tom/Jolene
THE LATEST | Tom and Jolene attend a teacher conference, where they lock lips in a bathroom (like the class acts they are). Meanwhile, Liz continues to be a badass who clearly deserves better.
OUCH! | In the show's biggest WTF moment in awhile, we discover Tom is actually a sleazy double agent. After Jolene calls his bluff, Tom tells her, "I told you, I'm in love with [Liz] because that's what I'm supposed to be. That is my job."
THE FORECAST | Lightning! Those ridiculously attractive hipster glasses will only get you so far, Tom.
the-originals-elijah-hayley
THE COUPLE | The Originals' Elijah and Hayley
THE LATEST | Elijah selflessly gives Celeste's cure to Hayley, knowing she could eventually leave him for her renewed werewolf family.
AWW! | We would prefer a full-on kiss, but that little forehead peck is pretty darn adorable.
THE FORECAST | Here comes the sun! Though Hayley and Elijah's romance will remain generally unrequited for the foreseeable future, they will share a special dance in the coming weeks.
the-following-ryan-mike
brooklyn-nine-nine-jake-amy
THE COUPLE | Brooklyn Nine-Nine's Jake and Amy
THE LATEST | During a mandatory training course, Amy gets flirty with an old flame named Teddy... and Jake gets super jealous.
OUCH! | Just as Jake is about to ask Amy out (!!!), girl reveals she's going on a date with Teddy. Shot through the heart!
THE FORECAST | Slushy. We're not sure if they will happen by season's end, but here's to hoping Jake at least tells Amy how he feels.
tomorrow-people-john-cara514
THE COUPLE | The Tomorrow People's Cara and John
THE LATEST | Cara continues being bossy, and John continues not listening to her. Elsewhere, a series of flashbacks show how John and Cara first met.
AWW! | At the end of the episode, John and Cara realize they belong together. They have some serious eye-sex and she nuzzles his scruffy face.
THE FORECAST | Sunrise on a cloudless morning. Sorry Stephen — looks like these two people are getting together like there's, uh, no tomorrow.
nashville514
THE COUPLE | Nashville's Juliette and Avery
THE LATEST | Juliette seems to be living the high life lately, and Avery feels a little uneasy about it. He invites her out to dinner, and then gets antsy when she starts spending money like it ain't no thang.
AWW! | Jeff offers Juliette a tempting record deal, but her excitement is thwarted when Avery reminds her that Jeff will never respect her. Juliette rips up the agreement, telling Avery his opinion of her is the most important.
THE FORECAST | Rainbows. We love these country crooners.
Scandal_Mellie_Andrew
THE COUPLE | Scandal's Mellie and Andrew
THE LATEST | In flashback, we learned that in the wake of being raped by Fitz's father, Mellie attempted suicide but was "saved" by lieutenant governor Andrew Nichols. After Mellie shared her sorrows, a closeness formed, though at the time she deflected his interest, saying, "I'm the governor's wife."
OH MY! | Whilst admiring First Ladies of the past in the White House's Vermeil Room, Andrew wonders aloud what would happen if he kissed Mellie at this moment. Mels at first waves off the idea, only to seconds later allow herself the indulgence of a man who's hot for her.
THE FORECAST | Torrential something. Surely FLOTUS know that two wrongs don't make a right, and already Olivia suspects a campaign-crippling "closeness" between Mellie and Fitz's veep nominee. Let's hope these two can dodge B613 snoop Tom's all-seeing cameras.
new-girl-nick-jess
THE COUPLE | New Girl's Nick and Jess
THE LATEST | After seeing Abby and Schmidt blissfully living together, Jess moves into Nick's room — where she is exposed to his gorgeous night gown and dirty feet.
AWW! | The couple later decide that living in the same room is probably not a good idea, but they are still crazy about each other.
THE FORECAST | Thirty percent cloudy. Last we saw, Schmidt was moving back into the apartment, meaning Nick and Jess may have to share close quarters again.
Greys-Anatomy-Cristina-Owen
THE COUPLE | Grey's Anatomy's Cristina/Owen/Emma
THE LATEST | We're not sure whether to blame it on the wine, or thank the wine (OK, we're totally thanking it) — but after sharing a bottle of red and drunkenly talking about their feelings, Christina and Owen have reunion sex.
OUCH! |.The next day, Owen breaks up with Emma, saying he wants Cristina someone who is more career-driven and passionate about surgery. (So, like... Cristina?)
THE FORECAST | Gloomy. Seeing as this is Sandra Oh's last season, we having a feeling Owen and Cristina will eventually flatline.
looking-kevin-patrick514
THE COUPLE | Looking's Kevin and Patrick
THE LATEST | Kevin tries to apologize for kissing Patrick, but according to Patrick, "it's just water under the bridge." Uh-huh...
AWW! | Patrick meets Kevin at the office to do some "work" — and by "work," we mean, "make out and have steamy sex."
THE FORECAST | Blizzard. In one of finale's most heart-wrenching scenes, Patrick's beau Richie tells him he might be in love with him. Dare we ask: Who are you rooting for in this triangle?
parenthood-sarah-hank
THE COUPLE | Parenthood's Sarah and Hank
THE LATEST | When Hank gets wind of Sarah's plans to accompany new boyfriend Carl to Zimbabwe for a week, he calls her out on quitting everything she starts, including the photography deadline that she'd be ditching for her trip to Africa. (And it tooootally isn't because he is jealous, right?)
AWW! | As he continues to struggle with his feelings for Sarah, Hank confides to his therapist that he really loved Sarah when they dated. Not the best timing in the world, but sweet nonetheless!
THE FORECAST | Cloudy. Although Sarah ultimately called it off with Carl (and gave up the chance to travel), there's still no telling if Hank is the one for her — even if they do awkwardly flirt a lot in that studio of his.
the-vampire-diaries-katherine-stefan
THE COUPLE | The Vampire Diaries' Katherine and Stefan
THE LATEST | After finally figuring out Katherine had hijacked Elena's body, Stefan says his last goodbyes, then releases Katherine's spirit.
AWW! | Ignoring the fact that he stabs her immediately afterwards (quite the romantic gesture, no?), Stefan's final kiss with Katherine is pretty sweet.
THE FORECAST | Bleak. We're not exactly sure where Katherine's spirit floated off to, so there's always a chance for a reunion, but it's not looking good for Team Stetherine.
reign-mary-francis
THE COUPLE | Reign's Mary and Francis
THE LATEST | Though she admits to also loving Bash, Mary concedes that she loves Francis more, and chooses to marry him.
AWW! | Mary and Francis' "consummation" scene Is surprisingly tender, considering how many people (including both of their former flames) were watching them go at it.
THE FORECAST | Dark skies, bloody pillows. Nostradamus' latest premonition shows Francis dying in bed early into his marriage, before he and Mary can have their first child. Nostradamus' premonitions are subject to change, of course, but the future's still not a pretty picture.
OnceS3b_RobinHood
THE COUPLE | Once Upon a Time's Regina and Robin Hood
THE LATEST | Earlier this season, in the episode "Quite a Common Fairy," Flashback Regina learned from gal pal Tinker Bell that she had a soul mate out there — but when push came to shove, Regina bailed on meeting the guy with the lion tattoo.
AWW! | Regina is saved from a flying monkey attack in the midseason premiere by Robin of Locksley (who unbeknownst to her is said soul mate). Though "her majesty" thus far claims to have little regard for this thief who "smells like forest," we have faith in wingwoman Snow White to hook up her frenemy with this "cute" new ally.
THE FORECAST | Cloudy, but with a gradual clearing. Regina at this time is busy nursing a broken heart (for her "lost" boy Henry) and feeding a new rivalry (with whomever is eating her porridge). But when the time is right, we expect Robin to fire Cupid's arrow from his bow.
