FAQ
Why isn't the couple I love included? Boo!
There were only 64 slots available so some tough choices had to be made. Sound off in the comments with the couples you think we missed and we'll take note for next year.
But some of these couples aren't even real couples...
That doesn't mean they don't have lots of devoted fans. Like we said, there were some tough choices to be made and we wanted to get a variety of different shows involved.
How often can I vote?
You can vote once per poll.
Can I express my undying adoration for my favorite TV couple in the comments?
