Hey Guys,
Talk about tense times! At 15:00 GMT when the polls were supposed to close our second poll between Stefan/Elena and Sawyer/Kate was tied, so I sat refreshing my polldaddy account dashboard for the next vote to come in and to close the poll, which happened at 15:00 and 47 seconds for people interested :P
It made for a fascinating second day of voting for your favourite Romantic Couples, with Seeley Booth and Temperence Brennan grabbing 57.27% of the votes to beat Buffy and Spike, but considering Buffy ended so many years ago it was a mighty impressive showing to give the current blockbuster TV hit such a good run. As mentioned before, in the second poll Sawyer & Kate stole the victory from Stefan and Elena by one vote with 50.03% of the votes. Very harsh on Stefan and Elena who ran a fantastic showing, but they exit at the first hurdle against tough opponents...
Todays polls sees Peter Bishop and Olivia Dunham of sci-fi phenomenon 'Fringe' challenging Nate Archibald and Serena van der Woodsen of 'Gossip Girl' as well as Greg House and Lisa Cuddy of medical drama 'House' taking on 'Friends' turned couple Monica Geller and Chandler Bing.
As always goes in these competitions, vote for your favourite and then spread the word around the web so that as many people as possible vote! You have 24 hours to do so... and with that, cast your votes...

Wow, super close yesterday. Glad the LOST pair went through :)
ReplyDeletePeter and Olivia for me Today
I voted for Peter & Olivia as they are brilliant and Fringe makes even a romance dramtic and bizarre.
ReplyDeleteAlso as much as I love House, Chandler & Monica were amazing. Need evidence then go watch the episode where Chandler talks to Erica about why they should adopt her babies... Nuff said really :P
I voted for Peter and Olivia in 1 and I voted for ANYBODY but House and Cuddy in 2. ACK!
ReplyDeletePeter And Olivia Of course. They are beautiful, epic, magic and BEYOND UNIVERSES !!
ReplyDeleteAnd even if I love Huddy, Mondler are more beautiful
Nate & Serena LOL, i forgot nate even exists
ReplyDeletePeter and Olivia, no question. Second one was a bit more difficult, but Chandler&Monica was my first ship ever so I am voting for them.
ReplyDeletePeter and Olivia.
ReplyDeleteYay Peter/Olivia and Mondler :) :) :)
ReplyDeleteFun fact: Friends was actually one of the first shows to use a ship name in canon: Ross called Monica and Chandler "Mondler" in one of the later seasons, and it really caught on.
I never got into Fringe, and I always felt that Nate and Serena would have made a good couple. I voted Chandler and Monica over House and Cuddy because I really haven't been happy with the show House lately. I stopped watching for the season when I saw the Vicodin storyline being reused. I hope those writers won't do to House what the Heroes writers and producers did with the character Sylar for three years.
ReplyDeleteIt would be amazing if a Lost couple won the competition!! My bet is on Jate, though...
ReplyDeletepeter and olivia best romance on tv in a loooooong time.
ReplyDelete^^ THIS!
ReplyDeletePeter & Olivia belong together.
Peter & Olivia! But then again, I think fringe has (besides supernatural) a very large fanbase so i'm betting they'll win. Second for Huddy because I have never seen monica and chandler as a couple, but I actually regret it because house and cuddy together isn't a very great match ;p
ReplyDeletenot voting on this.
ReplyDeleteThe only real pairing did not make it, sadly.
POlivia!
ReplyDeleteGotta go Peter and Olivia. I also had to stick with Chandler BING b/c I always thought they were a better couple then Ross and Rachel.
ReplyDeleteOlivia and Peter .
ReplyDeleteI do like House/Cuddy, but Monica/Chandler really was one of the greatest tv couples of all time - it's been years and I still love them to bits.
ReplyDeleteHUDDY
ReplyDeleteGregory House & Lisa Cuddy (House)
Choose between Huddy and Mondler....hard.But I'll always go for Friends in the end.Serenate losing.Too bad,but there's still Derena,Dair and Chair to represent GG.
ReplyDeleteHouse and Cuddy ! Huddy <3333
ReplyDeleteoh yesss, that's right =D
ReplyDeletePeter and Olivia. BECAUSE THEY ARE SOMETHING ELSE!
ReplyDeletePeter and Olivia: they're so cute but their romance is not silly at all ( 'cos many other romances' shows are very silly ^^ )
ReplyDeletePeter and Olivia!!!
ReplyDeleteI had to go with Peter & Olivia. I'm not much for romance, but despite a few hiccups the writing and mature nature of it is enough to give them my vote.
ReplyDeletePeter and Olivia! No doubt ^^
ReplyDeleteI think that if everybody had watched The X Files, Mulder and Scully would probably win. But since that's not the case, I'd bet on Jate as well.
ReplyDeleteHouse & Cuddy !! <3
ReplyDeletethe Huddy vs Mondler is the hardest one I've ever had to decide on.
ReplyDeletePeter and Olivia...the best love story on screen...a very mature and real relationship despite of the "Fringe World"
ReplyDeleteno no..I strongly disagree do not know .. Huddy!
ReplyDeleteFringe :D
ReplyDeletePeter and Olivia. Sci-fi has the best love stories, and this one is the best I've ever seen.
ReplyDeletePeter and Olivia and Monica and Chandler. I used to love House and Cuddy but somewhere along the road she has become so cold that I have lost any warm feelings about the character. I don't want her back with House bacause, frankly speaking, I don't thinks she desrves him. But that's my opinion and I respect all the opposite views.
ReplyDeletePeter and Olivia
ReplyDeleteChandler and Monica
Both pairing representing a mature and real relationship. A rare occurence in TV these days. Even LOST which is one of my favourite shows didn't do so well romance wise (the triangle/quadrangle anyone?)
they ruined house and cuddy so I don't even feel compelled to vote for them. shame.
ReplyDeleteEasy: Peter&Olivia and Chandler&Monica ;)
ReplyDeleteI love House but hate "Huddy" to death (always have, always will) and have always loved Monice & Chandler together, so easy choice. Huddy don't even count as a couple imo.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on that one, Marcela. Mulder and Scully would win this whole thing if everyone had watched The X-Files.
ReplyDeleteI really adore House and Cuddy together, though I've never be able to lay my finger onto why. There is so much complexity in their relationship, and I just enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteForgive me for being a spelling Nazi, Adam, but it's spelled Courteney, not Courtney. Ordinarily it's a forgivable offense, but she's been on our TV sets for twenty collective years (6 Family Ties, 10 Friends, 2 Dirt, and 2 Cougar Town...and I didn't even include Misfits of Science. :-D )
ReplyDeleteBut yeah, the two Friends romantic couples can trump almost any couple in the list.
Am I the only one who thinks "Chanica" sounds better than "Mondler"? Probably.
ReplyDeleteMonica and Chandler all the way, baby! They had a mature, realistic romance that evolved from a deep friendship. Plus, they never verbally or physically abused each other.
ReplyDeletehow the hell did nate and serena beat chuck and blair?! LMFAO .. whatever ill still vote for them since they're from gg
ReplyDeleteOMG, It's a hard decision choosing between Huddy and Mondler
ReplyDeleteAnxiously awaiting the survey in which participate Lisbon and Jane (The Mentalist) xD
ReplyDeleteOlivia & Peter and Monica & Chandler. Huddy makes me ill.
ReplyDeleteI vote for Peter and Olivia, in both Universes
ReplyDeleteSerena and Nate didn't beat Chuck and Blair, they are up against another couple that hasn't been named yet. After all these small polls are done, the winners will compete against each other, at least that's how I think it works.
ReplyDeleteCome on people any Gossip Girl Fans out there VOTE for Nate Archibald & Serena van der Woodsen.
ReplyDeleteIts what the show was surround on at the start VOTE
Aw, I love that Monica and Chanandlar Bong are winning. :D
ReplyDeleteI prefer "The Bings" to either shipper name..
ReplyDeleteThey did get married in the later years I think. Never really a fan of the series....
Monica and Chandler are my favorite TV couple ever. I'll be voting them through as long as they're in it. :)
ReplyDeletei like them too in GG but Olivia and Peter got my vote >.<
ReplyDeletecould not vote for any of these couples b/c i do not like any of them
ReplyDeletei have said before that i am not the biggest fan of romance and couples in tv (except for a very select few couples) because i often find that romance and tension spoils the dynamics of characters in a great tv show
so, my vote today goes to no one. which is upsetting because the last few rounds of these have pitted the few couples i actually like against each other
huddy i love u
ReplyDeleteIMO the Jack/Kate love story on Lost was the best ever sci-fi love story, but I agree with you. On other shows they just don't matter as much, they aren't as epic because there's not as much at stake.
ReplyDeletePeter/Olivia, hands down. They were the couple I originally voted for anyway. Such a great pairing. And I have loved Monica/Chandler for a long time so that's no question!
ReplyDeleteSorry for House and Cuddy, I love them, but I grew up loving Chandler and Monica...
ReplyDeleteHouse & Cuddy
ReplyDeletewhen will this poll end? I'm always so confused with timezones... D:
ReplyDeleteThey are normally open for 24 hrs. Depending on when Adam has time to
ReplyDeleteclose the poll.
excuse you but where is the dean and cas poll?
ReplyDeleteKay the first one was waaaay easy, but the second one killed me (love them both sooooo much)!
ReplyDeleteI picked Monica/Chandler for the simplest of reasons: they made it!!!
