Romance on TV is not dead. In fact, it’s been a great year with sweetness and steam on both cable and network TV.
It doesn’t matter if you like angst, a slow burn, sweetness, or a whole lot of steam, there was something for everyone this season. Here’s a look back at just some of our personal favorites.
Steamiest Sex
Jamie and Claire – ‘Outlander’
Jamie and Claire’s honeymoon night was done from largely Claire’s female perspective. Sam Heughan and Catriona Balfe’s eyes told as much of the story as did their explicit actions. Finally, a series that matched sensuality, romance, steam, and intimacy in a scene that left women satisfied, panting, and wanting a drink after.
Best Make-up Sex
Oliver and Connor – ‘How To Get Away With Murder’
With apologies to One Republic, it’s never too late to apologize, as Connor proves. Despite having broken each other’s hearts, Connor and Oliver finally pushed past the hurt. Hopefully, they keep going down this road because they bring out the best in each other.
Just Do It Already Couple
Daryl and Carol – ‘The Walking Dead’
There’s slow burn, and then there are these two who seem to be the only adults in the zombie apocalypse who can’t see what’s right in front of them. Caryl shippers not only had an emotional reunion between these two, but they also had to deal with them lying on a bed with a heart-to-heart conversation…and NOTHING happened. Do we need to draw them a diagram explaining how it works?
