Shamy, Olicity, and CaptainSwan top our TV Ships of this week. Every week, ships, A.K.A. relationships, are highlighted on our favorite TV shows. Which were your favorite partners and pairings this week?
Did your favorite ship sail this week, did a new one launch, or did yours sadly sink? If you love shipping, you know the drama that shipping wars bring. Your ships don’t have to be canon for you to love them, and that’s half the fun.
Remember, if we didn’t include your favorite, give a suggestion to the writer who usually covers your fandom in the recap discussion or in the comments below.
‘Once Upon a Time’ — All Aboard CaptainSwan
Passengers: Emma and Killian
Sunset Cruise: Emma is not ready to give up on her relationship with Hook, even if that means heading to the Underworld. Once she arrives, Emma plans to follow in her parents’ footsteps, and separate her heart so that Hook may return to Storybrooke. The trials of true love are getting much harder as the Once Upon a Time seasons progress!
Ship Status:We are cruising in new and dangerous waters here, folks. Ain’t nobody with a brain happy about a cruise that involves the River Styx.
‘The Flash’ — All Aboard Jay and Caitlin
Passengers: Jay Garrick and Caitlin Snow
Sunset Cruise: Caitlin invited Jay to the the West house for Christmas celebrations, and the two shared a kiss under the mistletoe — much to the relief of everyone around them who would have to be blind to miss the chemistry between them.
Ship Status: We love a Christmas cruise. Keep it coming with the mistletoe and break out the egg nog.
‘Arrow’ — All Aboard Olicity
Passengers: Oliver Queen and Felicity Smoak
Sunset Cruise: In front of a gathered group of people at a campaign event meant to spread the message of hope, Oliver proposed to Felicity. The moment was lovely but was unfortunately followed up by the couple being shot at, and Felicity being seriously wounded. Merry Christmas!
Ship Status: That moment when you’re all happy, breaking out the champagne, shedding a tear, and the next moment you’re screaming “MEDIC!” and calling in ship to shore rescue.
‘American Horror Story’ — All Aboard The Countess and Valentino
Passengers: The Countess and Valentino
Sunset Cruise: Reunited, and it feels as good as the first sip of blood from a fresh victim. Now that the century old lovers are reunited, the Countess is willing to beg, bleed, and steal in order to turn the Hotel Cortez into a timeless fortress for the pair of them to live out their eternal lives. But how will the others who have a hold on their hearts feel about their plan?
Ship Status: We’re starting to feel like this is more a cruise of the Ship of Fools than anything else.
‘The Originals’ — All Aboard Klaus and Cami
Passengers: Klamille
Sunset Cruise: After bearing witness to Klaus doing something that wasn’t self-serving, Cami looked ready to jump Klaus then and there, but, as always family drama got in the way. He didn’t let it stay in their way for long though. The episode ended with Klaus and Cami having a private moment on the balcony, which quickly moved to his bed. It would have been absolutely perfect if it weren’t for the blood Klaus found all over her chest when he awoke a bit later.
Ship Status: The ship is still sailing because only on The Originals is a blood soaked bed not a major problem.
‘Big Bang Theory’ — All Aboard Shamy
Passengers: Sheldon Cooper and Amy Farrah Fowler
Sunset Cruise: Amy and Sheldon are finally back together! The brilliant mind of Sheldon Cooper was nearly driven to insanity when a Beach Boys song gets stuck in his head. Sheldon finally realizes that the song was about Amy, and much like the catchy tune, he cannot get her out of his mind.
Ship Status: Did something else set sail this week, because we barely noticed. This ship is our everything.
