1. Thony & Arman - The Cleaning Lady
Is it getting hot in here, or is that just Thony and Arman locking eyes from across the room? This ship may be new, but it’s setting our screens on fire! This love story may be a little forbidden (we know they’re married to other people and all), but when the fire burns this bright, you’re powerless to look away. This couple has amassed an enormous fanbase seemingly overnight, and you can see why after watching the way they connect onscreen. The sky is truly the limit for the beautifully nuanced Thony and her dangerously charming mobster, Arman.
2. Michael & Alex - Roswell, New Mexico
Malex took our breath away from the minute they turned up on-screen during the pilot of Roswell, New Mexico. You want to talk about chemistry? These two are the blueprint for it, with their smoldering looks and ability to elevate their love story to epic proportions. We’re beyond ready to see them settled into domestic bliss as a real couple! We will happily watch them make pancakes together any day.
3. Olivia & Spencer - All American
Spelivia had insane friendship chemistry, and they’ve only ramped things up as a couple! Friendship was always the foundation of their connection, and the way they communicate and admire one another only adds to their love story. These two are the best All American couple for a reason.
4. Beth & Rip - Yellowstone
History is on the side of Rip and Beth, who found their way back to one another after many years apart. There is nothing these two won’t do for one another, and it’s that undying love and devotion to one another that makes their bond so sweet and sexy.
5. Benson & Stabler - Law & Order SVU/Law & Order: Organized Crime
Yes, we know these two aren’t in a romantic relationship. YET. But how can you leave two of the OG’s of shipping off this list about chemistry? These two practically created it! And after years away from one another, we must admit we didn’t know if they’d still have that same on-screen magic.
We had nothing to worry about! Their connection is, dare we say, stronger than ever.
6. Max & Helen - New Amsterdam
These two had an instant spark from the first moments of New Amsterdam, and we’ve watched them transition from friends to lovers seamlessly, with that spark only growing brighter. All it takes is a simple look between these two, and you feel like you’re intruding! And things are only getting steamier as these two continue to deeper their relationship.
