TV Romance Competition - The Winner Announced

24 May 2011

Share on Reddit
Hey Guys,

This is the final post for the TV Romance competition, it is now officially over. I hope you enjoyed it regardless of the winner and the placing of your own favourite couple.

And of course, as was expected for a few weeks now, the winners by a pretty decent margin was...

Dean Winchester & Castiel - Supernatural.


It seems the bro-mance/profound bond (I refuse to ever ask what that means btw :P) have pulled off a great victory with the Supernatural fans who follow the pairs relationship being unperturbed by recent events... that being Castiel turning all bad mo-fo.

So regardless if you love or loathe the winners, disagree with their place in the competition or have undying love for SpoilerTV for including them, it doesn't matter, it's all for fun and if it bothered you that much, don't worry... it's finished :P

Looking forward to playing again next year with new couples, rules, rounds and whatever else we can cook up...

Don't forget to check out the TV Show Competition beginning soon.

Adam

  2. Thanks for taking the time to run this competition mate, much appreciated.

    Nice to see some new faces in the comments section.

  3. They have a profound bond because Castiel gripped Dean tight and pulled him from Perdition. 

    ReplyDelete
  4. Enjoyable.... ^,^
    Thank you.

  5. Woo hoo! This fandom is simply amazing xD <3!
    "..or have undying love for SpoilerTV for including them" -- Basically ;D

    ReplyDelete
  6. Congrats to all their fans!  I do love Dean and Cas - maybe not in that way, exactly, but I do - so I'm pretty happy.  If nothing else, I've loved being able to see that picture every time they win.  Such a great moment. xD

    ReplyDelete
  7. I think this proves that whether you agree with it or not, this pair is incredibly important to A LOT of people.

    And you'd have to ask Cas what he considers a profound bond to be, since he's the one who said it. :)

    You call it 'recurring line', I call it 'romantic symmetry'.

  9. Not surprised in the least...and happy that a wall was broken down, several actually.

  10. I voted for the klaine but i'm glad for the supernatural fandom and the destiel who is a awesome couple, epic and gorgeous. 
    I love that the finalists are m/m, make me so proud.

  11. I like it that the STV community loves SUPERNATURAL!!

    ReplyDelete
  12. I'm so happy that they won =D

    Thanks for the article :)

    ReplyDelete
  13. winning like a boss ;) ... or God.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Thanks for running this, Adam!! :D


    Would have been nice for a proper couple to win, though -_-  Maybe next time.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Uh...not the couple I expected but ok ;)

    ReplyDelete
  16. You call this THE article??? O_O

    ReplyDelete
  17. Supernatural FTW :D Bwhaha. Poor Dean and Cas, their profound bond sure took a hit this past Friday....

    ReplyDelete
  18. I call it thematic symmetry. The monster sacrificed can "save herself" because Bobby's just a man, and the angel isn't worried about Dean stopping him, because he's just a man. First we see how Visyak was wrong, and shortly we will see how Castiel was wrong for suddenly ignoring the fact that for several years now, Sam and Dean have killed enemies much more menacing than Castiel...up until he ate Purgatory that is.

    ReplyDelete
  19. thank you Adam for giving our OTP a chance to be in this poll! We had a tough finale and fandom needed this victory real bad. I hope the show creators will find out about it and consider once again killing the wonderful chemistry Dean and Castiel have.

    And now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to celebrate with the victory my fellow fans. Dean and Cas FTW :D

    ReplyDelete
  20. KLEANSTIEL FTW! :D

    ReplyDelete
  21. LMAOed my god, everyone trolled spoiler tv with this winners! ok, it's a good bromance, but come on guys, the name of the competition is "tv romance competition", so... that "profound bond" you talked about, adam, best if you really don't think much about it. 
    Don't take me so serious, i'm just messing with you. I was very glad spoiler tv accepted dastiel as a couple and as supernatural fans are SO very OBSESSED by this series, of course they had to win with some couples, and because the series doesn't provide good romantic couples, the bromance wins!
    Viva os fãs!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Oh, yes, congratulations to Klaine fans, too! Now that our fandoms are married i think we should make the tumblr meme about Blaine being Dean and Castiel's son fanon :DD

    ReplyDelete
  23. I'm Destiel fans too.
    If you interest you could join the community of Kleanstiel in LJ... :)

    ReplyDelete
  24. Well I would love to see a "proper " article with Adam's thoughts on this pairing, maybe I should have called this an announcement ;)

    But I'm glad for even this *g*

    ReplyDelete
  25. joined it. new friends ftw :))

    ReplyDelete
  26. Yeah... I think, I have to be glad too... x)

    But I was hoping the epic historical event when two fandoms could be lovely as eden when in competition...

    ReplyDelete
  27. This is incredible.

    Thank you so much for putting this poll together!

    ReplyDelete
  28. YEA!!!! We close a hundred now... well not yet but almost!
    Glad to meet you :)

    Thanks for running this, Adam. It's been a blast. So happy that Dean and Cas won, but so much love to Klaine shippers for how amazing they've been this entire contest and especially last round. You guys are freaking wonderful and I'll see you all over at Kleanstiel for sure. ;)

    Now, I'm pretty much just waiting for Misha, Seb, Mark or Richard or someone to tweet about it. The hilarity will make the second hand embarrassment worth it. I think that considering Misha's on vaycay rn, Sebastian's probably the better option if you want cast recognition for the poll. To twitter, minions, mishamigos, acolytes or whatever you crazy kids are calling yourselves these days!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Oh what ever the heck! I'm gonna twit this to all those guys!!

    *in process*

    ReplyDelete
  31. *flails* this makes me very happy :D

    group hug?

    ReplyDelete
  32. Someone Smite Me!!
    I did twit this to all those 5 guys, at least one of day would read this... maybe?

    Gagh! /runs away/

    ReplyDelete
  33. this two r nt even a couple...wow...people are confused instead of bromance thy call thm a couple

    ReplyDelete
  34. You could try to sound more enthusiastic but regardless, thanks for including them in the poll and I'm VERY happy they won. 

    ReplyDelete
  35. The reason Cas went bad in the first place was to save the world, and why did he want to save the world?  Because it would mean saving Dean. Everything Castiel does is to ensure Dean is safe. If that's not romantic, I dunno what is. 

    ReplyDelete
  36. This is awesome. That final round was awesome. Yeah - everything is awesome :)

    ReplyDelete
  37. Even tho we could clearly see that some people were not exactly (how can I say?) happy to the way the poll turned out - I'm looking at you Adam XD! No hard feelings in the end, I hope. - I'm really thankfull Spoiler TV - And yes, you too, Adam - decided to keep Destiel in the competition. I think the whole fandom agrees.
    But I got say the thing that made me most emotional was to see that, don't matter what the future brings, we still believe in their conection: the way those two are obviously devoted to each other, and the way two completly diferent beings are just willing to do anything for each other.
    Cas is God? They're on oposite sides now? We'll deal with this when it's time.
    Right now, the only thing I can say is:
    I WILL GO DOWN WITH THIS SHIP.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I think it should have Dean and Sam

    ReplyDelete
  39. True, true . . . Did you already twit??? or shall I? *gg*

    ReplyDelete
  40. I don't think words can exactly describe how happy I am right now. I ship many couples in many fandoms, but Dean and Castiel make me feel more deeply and intensely than any other couple. Whether  I'm smiling at an adorable moment of Dean teaching Cas how to be human in "Free to Be You and Me", or feeling my heart break during "On the Head of a Pin" or "The Man Who Knew Too Much", or the way future!Cas looks at Present!Dean in "The End", still trusting in him to make the right decision and save the world despite what his Dean has done...there are so many moments, so many emotions. The sheer strength of their faith and trust in each other is amazing and beautiful to me, and I still trust in it to turn Cas around next season.

    ReplyDelete
  41. I'm glad that Spoiler TV and the SPN fandom still have a sense of humor! :)

    It would be an awesome world if the words "romantic" and "couple" weren't perceived as being strictly about nothing more than sex. The best romances are relationships that are deeply felt and endure everything life throws at them. Couples can be lifelong friends as much as lovers.

    Those who disagree, I honestly feel badly that their views cannot expand to these ideas. One can only throw the dictionary at them so many times in hopes that they focus on the pages.

    For all the other "romantic couples" on the list who are involved sexually (even if they were not at the time of their nominations to this poll - and there were), we also hope that they enjoy deep, enduring relationships, as both lovers and as friends.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Adam LOL the profound bond thing is actually the handprint-shaped mark left on Dean's shoulder when Castiel pulled him out of hell.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I did and I'm still running away from what I did.... XD

    ReplyDelete
  45. I think it's more than that, it's a feeling deep within them that makes Dean the need to call Cass just once and he will come, but for Sam would not even tough it takes a year.
    ....but I was not gonna mention that!>)

    ReplyDelete
  46. =D great!

    You can hide behind me if yxou don't want to be found ;)

  47. Thank you! Let me live in your a$$ then... wait I'm never in your---

  50. nerdylittledudewithwings24 May 2011 at 19:38

    Haha, wow, don't sprain something with all that enthusiasm there, Adam. ; )

    Yes, Dean/Cas is epic. Yes, many many many fans love Cas and love the relationship he and Dean have had over the last 3 years. Yes, something can be "romantic" without involving physical intimacy (see the first 7 years of a little show called The X-Files). And, yes, it is believable in 2011 (!) that fans want to see a m/m romantic relationship with a main character on a popular TV show. Even if that romantic relationship never happens--which, given the showrunner's recent comments on the future of Castiel in S7, seems even less likely now than it was before the final minute of Friday's season 6 finale.

    But I do hope you, Adam, and TPTB over at Supernatural *cough*Gamble*cough* take notice: WE BELIEVE IN THIS PAIRING. As friends, "family", partners, bros, whatever -- please do not take that relationship away from us. Sure they've turned Cas into a big bad (in a move that made very little sense for his character, which up til then had been all about saving Dean and Sam), but that doesn't mean that his story has to end. Let him redeem himself in S7, like Sam has been able to do in S5&6. Or let Dean find a way to save him, like he's done everything to save the other members of his "family". Let Cas fall, become human, or whatever if that's what it takes to keep the SPN stories grounded on Earth like Gamble says she wants.

    Above all, do not throw away the many many fans like me who love Dean, Cas, Misha, and the incredible chemistry that he and Jensen bring to all of their scenes together--making those scenes intense and emotional, even when they're just communicating with their eyes. After three years and thousands of gained viewers/fans, the Dean/Cas friendship (and MISHA) is epic and worth saving.

  51. Btw... you should do it too. If it only me I'm sure it will get lost inside the many other thousand post.
    Rise the chance!

    P.s... I'm sure there are tons of better screencaps to use to represent this pairing. Like maybe one where they're actually LOOKING at each other. Bet my fellow fans here can link a few...

    ReplyDelete
  55. Agree, but it kinda too late now, maybe this could be planned for the NEXT pool?

    But at least every time we see that picture above we will smile for two different reason now :)

    ReplyDelete
  56. He's also the one who asked for Dean (and ok, Sam and Bobby, but still... Dean) to bow down before him and 'love' him so...

    ReplyDelete
  57. I'll just let Misha say how I feel about this!

    ReplyDelete
  58. Like I said on the last poll, I'm so very happy about these results. No matter which way you look at it the underdog won. Dean/Castiel, a same sex, interspecies, non-canon, all around minority couple won TV's most favorite romantic couple's competition and everything in the world is right and beautiful. Now if the SPN writers take note of this poll and don't destroy the relationship in Season seven it would be gorgeous.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Oh I do hope Misha and Jensen become aware of this.  The lulz will be amazing.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Oh Look!
    He's happy and having a party eerr parade! ^o^

    ReplyDelete
  61. Then twit Misha, Mark, Sebastian, Richard and Jim!

    ReplyDelete
  62. What about Jim Beaver?

    ReplyDelete
  63. Deliriously delighted that Dean & Castiel made it into this competition and came out as our winning couple. \o/
    The Hunter/Angel have an enduring profound bond and this is proof positive a great many loyal, passionate fans want to see it continue throughout the future season(s) of Supernatural. I'd skywrite this if I could..CW/Eric Kripke/Sera Gamble WE LOVE CASTIEL! WE LOVE SPN'S TEAM FREE WILL FAMILY!! WE LOVE DEAN & CASTIEL'S 'MORE PROFOUND' BOND!!! PLEASE DON'T BREAK UP OUR FAV TV COUPLE. ♥♥

    ReplyDelete
  64. So many people have explained already why they count as a romance (even though they're not screwing each other senseless) same as other couples on this poll who weren't/aren't "couples" either so I'm not going there...I agree,the real winners are,of course SPNs super crazy fans :D

    ReplyDelete
  65. Congrats to the Destiel shippers! If we Klainers had to lose, I'm SO glad it was to you guys. :D

    ReplyDelete
  66. Ohhh, this tickled my funny bone. I love this fandom.

    ReplyDelete
  67. The world cannot understand how happy this makes me. Oh wait! I take that back- the rest of my Destiel fans know EXACTLY how awesome this is ;) Good game, Klaine! (it's my other OTP!)

    ReplyDelete
  68. So happy they won. :'D Thank you for the competition, and thank you for including them. I know you got a lot of crap from both sides for them being here and I appreciate you keeping them in regardless of the drama.

    It's just a silly online poll and a pairing in a fictional show but this win means a lot to many people, myself included.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Actually we were pretty screwed in last year's character competition and lost all our boys prematurely. We have to do better next time!!!

    ReplyDelete
  70. Yay! I'm very happy that they won (: Supernatural is a great show, and regardless of their romantic/sexual relationship being canon or not in the show, it's great that they can be recognised as a great pairing. I don't think I've ever been so interested in two characters' relationship (romantic or not) as with these two. The chemistry (and no, that doesn't have to be sexual) they have together is amazing.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Believe me, I know people believe in Destiel now. Don't worry about that one, haha

    ReplyDelete
  72. I'm happy that it was so popular... that's why we run these things in the first place. For people to get involved in. 

    ReplyDelete
  73. Oh my Cas, I'm beyond ecstatic for this result. \o/ \o/

    Thank you STV for letting Dean/Cas compete in this poll, thus giving us a chance to show our love and passion for this amazing couple. Their journey here has been a blast, facing with so many negative remarks, refusal, and denial from all directions. 

    No, I'm not confused and I'm not delusional for having faith in this couple. For me, romance is so much more than the old stereotypical male/female, and as someone stated in the last poll, Dean/Cas romance is way more deep and tragic than Romeo and Juliet. Most important, romance is not based purely on physical contact, such as holding hands, kissing, having sex, or even marriage. And really, it doesn't have to be canon for any character in any show to have a romance with others. 

    Anyway, I've said it before, no matter what the result is, both couple is the winner. Dean/Cas winning this, doesn't make Kurt/Blaine on the losing side. They both are such an amazing couple, so different from each other, but so special in their own way. I know that there has been so many obstacle for Kurt/Blaine in this poll as well, so I'm very happy that they can pull it off together, and make it to the very end. 

    For all the Klainers, I have so much respect for all of you. The final round has been so much fun and joy. Thank you for being so positive, friendly, and civilized. I never watch Glee before, but reading all your lovely comments for this couple, I seriously consider to catch up, uhm, maybe just scenes with Kurt/Blaine in it. :) 

    Ow, last one, congrats for the new marriage for this two fandom. Kleanstiel FTW. :D

  75. you have to send a reporter to make a video interview  to both actors jensen and misha for us to know his reaction to the poll please make it happen

    ReplyDelete
  76. Oh I agree! I wanna see their faces.

    ReplyDelete
  77. chotto matte! are those guys gay?

    ReplyDelete
  78. 'Traditionally' romantic or not, this pair is a well-deserved winner and I'm glad they've done so. There's been some interesting discussion resulting from this competition which has possibly redefined people's views on romance and relationships, and I'm glad to have contributed and read it all. Thanks for the good times everyone :)

    ReplyDelete
  79. This was so much fun to follow and participate in. And while I was rooting for the winners, I think the fans would've been just as gleeful (bad pun) if the runner-up pairing had won! 

    ReplyDelete
  80. Enjoyed very much. There were a lot of attacks at Dean/Castiel, but the finale was a delight. Glee fans were cool :)

    Thanks for orginizing and including Dean/Cas as an option. :)

    ReplyDelete
  81. Thanks for the kind comments.

    ReplyDelete
  82. He did the same for Sam..but didn't say they had a profound bond.  I guess that's because he didn't really do a good job of pulling him out!  Forgot the most essential part, the soul.

    ReplyDelete
  83. most definitely =D
    want to see their reaction ;)

    ReplyDelete
  84. Wincest is awesome, too! But I still think their bromance is just a bromance. Even though I write and read Wincest fanfics .-.

    ReplyDelete
  85. No lol. Fandom just likes to pretend they are.

    ReplyDelete
  86. Dean/Castiel bromance ftw!

    P.S Thank you so much for letting them be candidates. *BIG hug* :)

    ReplyDelete
  87. And congrats Klaine on being runner-up! You guys are just as awesome! :)

    ReplyDelete
  88. and still win over Caskett or MulderX Scully? hah, the world truly is crazy!

    ReplyDelete
  89. Not surprised who won. While i would have liked a different couple, i am glad all of the others didnt win . And i do love dean and cas so i cant be disappointed.

    ReplyDelete
  90. yes, but we must remember, he's got a few million extra souls worth of bad mojo causing his angelic PMS... hopefully he gets sane again pronto, so their bond can be all profound again :P

    ReplyDelete
  91. Muwahahahahahahahaha! Semi-Homoerotic Subtextual love is the future! DEAN/CAS -sex or no- FTW! O:<

  94. Do not be deceived. Homosexuality is a sin, and all who pander to it will be put in the lake of fire. This is the truth. Don't hate the sinner, hate the sin. Do not encourage this, the end is coming.

    ReplyDelete
  95. FFFFF-YEAH. 8'D I've known Destiel for a while, but only recently /really/ got into it. > u<)b
    ...Shush, I have like, 9 main pairings out of 33. ...Destiel isn't quite one of the 9 yet.

    Not like you'll read this, but if anyone skims over it, the origin of "profound bond"...

    Sam: So what, you like him better, or something?
    Castiel: Dean and I do share a more profound bond.(6.03)It was an awkward moment. Where fangirls started shaking within their fits of giggles.

    ReplyDelete
  96. I dont think he forgot. It was a cheap writers trick to make Cas the one who pulled Sam out. They just threw it out there. No further explanation. No exact timeline or anything. I mean there is a difference from Dean. Dean was in Hell. Not the Cage. Cas was "new and Improved" so I guess he tried to save Sam for Dean. He went to the cage and got him out. The archangels hold onto Sams soul though. Cas didnt knew that. Also there is a great anology. As Dean puts Sam before everything and everyone (and vice versa) Cas does the same with Dean. He still is sams friend. His brother. But with Dean, they just have the chemestry.
