Geek World's Best Couples!

The last post was pretty depressing, so I've decided to cheer up this place with a selection of the best Geek Couples, not all of these are romantic. Just the best duos in some of my favourite TV shows.

As always they're in no particular order!

1. Jamie AKA The Kingslayer and Brienne


 
Seeing their relationship develop was one of the highlights of last season. Jamie showed a side of himself that we had not seen before and Brienne opened up to a man she began by hating. It's very lucky that Catelyn sent Brienne on this mission, if not she would have been slaughtered along with everyone else. Although perhaps her presence at the Red Wedding would have had a catalytic effect and the whole thing would have become known as "What wedding?" 






2. Sherlock and John Watson. 

That should be Joan Watson. And let me clear - I can't stand the other Watson of recent times, played by Martin Freeman - he always looks as though he is trying to take a gigantic shit. 


Nah, I'm talking about Elementary. A new take on an old idea. Sherlock is a drug addict and Watson is his sober companion (at least that is how it starts) - what I love about their relationship is that even though they are both straight and off the opposite sex - their's is a partnership not a romance (at least from what I have seen). So eat that Harry and Sally.

3. On the other hand we have Spike & Buffy

I couldn't decide whether to put these two in the 'doomed couples category' or the 'best couples category' but decided on the latter because I still hold on to the belief that Spike survived the apocalypse at the end of 'Angel' and he went off to Europe to find Buffy. They subsequently bought an apartment in Rome and lived happily ever after.





I love them together. He sees who she is and she sees who he is. Warts and all. No pretending or lying. And who knows they may have got their happily ever after.

4. Piper and Leo

Are completely awesome. Like totally man! They are the ultimate magical power couple.



They are the heart and soul of Charmed a TV Show I find myself coming back to again and again and again




6. Willow and Tara from Buffy

Very tastefully done. Not burnt to a crisp or under-cooked. Just right. And ahead of its time. Shame that Tara didn't make it!



7. Tyrion and Bron





They're a very funny pair. I don't particularly like Bron but the antics they get upto can't help make you laugh. Bron is made a better character because of his involvement with Tyrion - whereas Tyrion needs no one to help him!



Game of Thrones would not be complete without these two that's for sure. 

Adieu.
