'Ship Shape: How Fave Pairs From The Killing, Covert Affairs, Chasing Life, True Blood And Other Shows Are Faring

ShipShape_TheKilling_4x02

THE COUPLE | The Killing's Holder and Caroline (from Season 4, Episode 1)

THE LATEST | Holder has barely scrubbed Skinner's blood from his clothes — if not the permanent pains of guilt — when girlfriend Caroline drops the bomb that she is pregnant.

AWWW | Holder at first whips out the "How did this happen?!" card, then later cuddles up next to his lady to propose marriage.

THE FORECAST | It's The Killing, so we're gonna go with "rainy." For one, Holder's motives in proposing were largely self-serving (to "do the right thing" and "make himself a good man," or whatever) and not particularly romantic. Plus: The dark secret he and Linden are keeping will always present an emotional barrier with others, while forming a bond between the partners in crime solving.

ShipShape_SAB3_DW

THE COUPLE | Switched at Birth' Bay and Emmett

THE LATEST | Guilty because of how their relationship ended, Bay offers to accompany Tank to dinner with his father instead of going out to celebrate Emmet's acceptance into Gallaudet.

OUCH! | After Tank's father storms out of dinner, Bay comforts her frat-free ex and tells him about her higher-than-normal risk of dying from an aneurysm.

THE FORECAST | The cloudy skies of Bay's guilty mind might be leading this ship into the Bermuda love triangle.

ShipShape_SAB_DW

THE COUPLE | Switched at Birth's Daphne and Nacho

THE LATEST | After they vandalize Regina's East Riverside Project's construction site, Daphne and Nacho start making out before Daphne pulls away.

AWW! | Upset at Regina, Daphne decides to pursue a relationship with Nacho after all.

THE FORECAST | Considering Daphne's only dating Nacho to get back at her mom, things don't look too sunny for this 'ship.

ShipShape_SAB2_DW

THE COUPLE | Switched at Birth's Toby and Lily

THE LATEST | After Toby's advocating for Sharee's make-up test lands him in bed with Lily, he accidentally implies that that's why he slept with her.

AWW! | Toby apologizes to Lily and presents her with ear plugs to help with her "noisy neighbor." She then tells him that Sharee's getting that make-up test after all.

THE FORECAST | Toby's miscommunication aside, things are looking quite warm between these two.

ShipShape_UnderTheDome2_DW

THE COUPLE | Under the Dome's Norrie and Joe

THE LATEST | After Norrie gets a bit feisty with Melanie, Joe calls his girlfriend "a real bitch" and runs off to comfort — and kiss — the new girl in town.

OUCH! | When Joe tries to apologize by telling Norrie he loves her, she's not exactly ready to forgive and forget: "That's your go-to? After you've macked on another chick in front of my face? Try it on her." Preach, sister.

THE FORECAST | With Melanie becoming an integral part of the dome's mystery, it looks like gray skies are ahead for this pair.

ShipShape_TheFosters_DW

THE COUPLE | The Fosters' Jesus and Hayley

THE LATEST | Seeing Jesus and Emma talking during wrestling practice, Hayley gets jealous and tearfully tells Jesus her parents are getting a divorce, forcing him to skip his team dinner to console her.

OUCH! | When Jesus tells Mariana what happened, she tells him Hayley's known about the divorce for months.

FORECAST | Now that Emma is captain of the team, she and Jesus will be working (and wrestling) more closely. Expect more jealousy-filled heat waves from Hayley.

ShipShape_CovertAffairs_DW

THE COUPLE | Covert Affairs' Auggie and Hayley

THE LATEST | Reunited with Natasha, Auggie wants to break up with Hayley, but can't bring himself to do so.

OUCH! | Unfortunately, because she's looking into what happened in Chicago, Auggie's forced to keep dating her so he can keep track of what information she finds.

THE FORECAST | Relationships based on spying on your significant other aren't built to last. It's only a matter of time until this ship sinks.

ShipShape_PLL_DW

THE COUPLE | Pretty Little Liars' Spencer and Toby

THE LATEST | Tired of their crazy town and its mysterious "gas explosions," Toby tells Spencer he's enlisted in the police academy, but she isn't too happy about the news...

AWW! | ... until he points out the access to evidence perks that come with the liars having a cop they can trust on the inside.

FORECAST | Blue (uniformed) skies.

ShipShape_ChasingLife_DW

THE COUPLE | Chasing Life's April and Leo

THE LATEST | April finds out that Leo is the mystery donor who paid for her fertility treatments.

AWW! | Later, inspired by Jackson's fake funeral, April seizes the rest of her day and chases life right into Leo's lips, arms and everything else.

FORECAST | With cancer clouds looming over both halves of this couple, the fault really is in this pair's stars.

ShipShape_FindingCarter_DW

THE COUPLE | Finding Carter's Taylor and Max

THE LATEST | Carter rigs a game of "spin the bottle" so that Taylor successively kisses almost all the guys in the group.

AWW! | When it's his turn, Max tells Taylor he wishes he'd been her first kiss, before leaning in for what is their first kiss.

THE FORECAST | Given the late night make-out session Carter accidentally walked in on, it's safe to say this couple will be getting hot and heavy in no time.

ShipShape_Suits_DW

THE COUPLE | Suits' Mike and Rachel

THE LATEST | Feeling guilty, Rachel tells Mike about her kiss with Logan, inspiring him to confront her ex and break up with her.

OUCH! | When Rachel returns home to find Mike in their apartment, he tells her that not only is he moving out, but he'll also be coming back to work the next day.

THE FORECAST | Freezing (for now). There might be a light at the end of this couple's tunnel of love, but that's only if Rachel is able to earn back Mike's trust.

ShipShape_Young&Hungry_DW

THE COUPLE | Young & Hungry's Gabi and Cooper

THE LATEST | Josh forbids Cooper and Gabi from dating one another...

AWW! | ...but they meet for dinner anyway and find out that they like each other despite their many, many shortcomings.

THE FORECAST | Warm and cloudy, mostly because this couple has to keep their relationship on the down low.

ShipShape_Defiance_DW

THE COUPLE | Defiance's Alak and Christie

THE LATEST | Disgusted to learn she's been hitting a kink club cross-racing, Alak hooks up with Christie's all-too-willing gal pal Deidre.

OUCH! | Christie, meanwhile, is crossing some lines with fellow Casti-thanatic Viceroy Mercado.

THE FORECAST | Dark and stormy. This couple has a lot of talking to do if they're going to keep this ship at sea.

ShipShape_Dominion_DW

THE COUPLE | Dominion's Alex and Noma

THE LATEST | After a playful slap fight in the shower, this pair of exes become bedfellows — or perhaps storage closet-fellows — once again.

OUCH! | That is until Gabriel reveals that Noma has been hiding the fact that she's a higher angel from Alex, forcing her to fly away from Vega.

THE FORECAST | Consider the sky overcast (with angel wings). With a war brewing on the horizon, love is the last thing on Alex's mind.

ShipShape_GMW_DW

THE COUPLE | Girl Meets World's Cory and Topanga

THE LATEST | Cory insults Topanga's cooking, causing her to kick him out of the house.

AWW! | After a heart-to-heart with their son Auggie, Cory tells Topanga he loves her and appreciates the fact that she cooks for their family.

THE FORECAST | Sunny skies ahead. After all the lessons Mr. Feeny taught them, there's nothing this couple can't face after talking it out.

shipshape-sookie-bill-true-blood

THE COUPLE | True Blood's Bill and Sookie

THE LATEST | After accepting that she can't stop Bill's impending death, Sookie decides to go for one last roll in the hay with her infected ex.

AWW | Sookie's midnight jaunt to Bill's mansion in nothing but a tiny nightie was a nice callback to Season 1.

THE FORECAST | The existence of a Hep-V cure offers a glimmer of hope for the couple, but with three episodes left until the series finale, who knows what's in store?

shipshape-arlene-keith-true-blood

THE COUPLE | True Blood's Arlene and Keith

THE LATEST | Arlene finally gets her new vampire suitor alone, but not wanting to infect Keith with Hep-V, she settles for a dance.

AWW | "Then let's just dance." (Is Keith straight out of a Nicholas Sparks novel, or what?)

THE FORECAST | Arlene's Hep-V-positive status will prove to be a roadblock in her relationship with Keith — until the cure comes into play.
