Show notes
Shipping always involves risk. You may be invested in a will-they-or-won’t-they where the creator ultimately chooses not to go the romance route. Or maybe the creator WAS planning to pay off the relationship, but didn’t get to finish the story on their own terms. Jennifer and Heather know the pain of shipping pairings in these situations, and they have compiled a list of 10 TV couples who deserved a better ending to their story.
