'Ship Shape: How Pairs From Undateable, Rookie Blue, Dome And Other Shows Are Faring
Undateable - Season 1
THE COUPLE | Undateable's Justin and Nicki
THE LATEST | As Justin anxiously awaited his lady love's return to Detroit, Danny warns his roomie to brace for bad news.
OUCH! | And bad news indeed came, when Nicki called to say she'd be staying to take care of her mom — and as such perhaps she and Justin should "take a break."
THE FORECAST | Gray skies ahead for "Baby Bird," though he'll have the rare warm hug from Danny to soothe him.
ShipShape_Undateable2
THE COUPLE | Undateable's Burski and Leslie
THE LATEST | When Leslie appears intrigued by tales of the geek's sexual prowess, she accepts his overture to grab a drink, somewhere else in private.
AWW! | Rather than close the deal, Burski 'fesses that he faked his online "reviews" — and then tells Leslie that their "love story" will happen one day, after he does "some work" on himself.
THE FORECAST | Partly sunny, based on Leslie's barely concealed swoon upon hearing Burski's uber-romantic profession.
ShipShape_24_DW
THE COUPLE | 24's Chloe and Adrian
THE LATEST | Chloe tells Adrian she can't be a part of his weapons distributions plan, but he pulls out a gun and gets rid of any choice she has in the matter.
OUCH! | As Cheng plots, Adrian drops an emotional bomb, telling Chloe that her husband and son's deaths weren't any fault of hers, but simply accidents. Before she can process this new intel, Cheng shoots Adrian in the head.
THE FORECAST | Cold as a dead body. Does a ship sink faster with a broken heart?
ShipShape_Mistresses_DW
THE COUPLE | Mistresses' April and Daniel
THE LATEST | April's daughter tells her that she loves Daniel, to which April replies that she might love him too. Out on the stairs, April's very own tall, dark and handsome overhears the entire exchange.
AWW! | During their ice cream date at home, Daniel serves up an extra sweet topping when he tells April that he loves her too.
THE FORECAST | Clear skies for now, but we see a redheaded hurricane (AKA that chick in Daniel's truck) in this couple's future.
ShipShape_UTD_DW
THE COUPLE | Under the Dome's Barbie and Julia
THE LATEST | Barbie goes looking for Julia, but she finds him as he's tending to people on the ground.
AWW! | Relieved he's still alive, she runs into his arms and cries. After they kiss, Barbie tells her she won't get rid of him that easy.
THE FORECAST | Dome-willing, the sun may be shining on this pair for now, but they still have to come up with an explanation for all the bodies.
ShipShape_SAB_DW
THE COUPLE | Switched At Birth's Travis and Mary-Beth
THE LATEST | Travis snaps at Mary-Beth when she asks him about his mother, telling her he doesn't like talking about his family. She brings up that he doesn't like talking about hers either and he apologizes, telling her he loves her.
AWW! | Disappointed Travis couldn't meet his hero, football player Derrick Coleman, they get up to leave, only to run into the Super Bowl champ on their way out. When Travis is too shy to approach him, Mary-Beth drags him over and introduces him.
THE FORECAST | It's smooth sailing for the one drama-free relationship in Travis' life.
ShipShape_FostersCallie_DW
THE COUPLE | The Fosters' Callie and Brandon
THE LATEST | Left in charge of the house for a night, Callie and Brandon bicker about whether to throw a party.
OUCH! | Callie tells Lou about Brandon's accident (and lost potential), convincing her to go back and join him when he's forced to sing the song he'd once written about his and Callie's relationship. When they talk about it later, Callie says it's fine and that it's a good song. Brandon tells her she's a good sister.
THE FORECAST | Any romantic heat between these two has cooled a to soon-to-be siblings warm. Even Wyatt notices their new dynamic, his construction-trained hands putting the final nail in their relationship's coffin and letting this ship slowly sink.
ShipShape_FostersJude_DW
THE COUPLE | The Fosters' Jude and Connor
THE LATEST | When Connor asks Jude if he's gay, the youngest Foster says that people shouldn't be defined by labels and that he doesn't want to be anyone's secret.
AWW! | Connor picks his friend over his father, showing up at the house and playing Spin the Bottle in Jude's room. But when his dad comes looking for him, he beats a hasty getaway as Jude covers for him.
THE FORECAST | Foggy. While things may have warmed up between both boys, their almost kiss might linger and create tension.
ShipShape_ChasingLife_DW
THE COUPLE | Chasing Life's April and Leo
THE LATEST | At the start of a new cancer support meeting, Leo outs April as a reporter willing to do anything for a story... before she admits (to everyone there) that she has leukemia.
OUCH! | Later April does make a "press pass" for Leo, asking him for an invite to his father's campaign kick-off party. Leo agrees, promising an exclusive on a story about his cancer as well. But once at the party, Leo makes their still-new friendship less "exclusive" when he announces his tumor to the room, depriving April of her big scoop.
THE FORECAST | Gentle showers. As April gears up to tell the rest of her family about her diagnosis, she might need a certain experienced cancer-sufferer's shoulder to cry on. We just hope the rain helps make some of the pain go away.
RIZZOLI & ISLES
THE COUPLE | Rizzoli & Isles' Jane and Casey
THE LATEST | After much debate, Jane decides it's time to tell her baby's daddy that he's, well, a baby daddy (via Skype).
AWW! | Casey, Jane reports, wasn't scared off by the bombshell, but he will need time to process it (and his role in the tot's future).
THE FORECAST | Nonetheless sunny, as Jane realizes that she will need to let people — such as Maura! — into her life and be part of this new adventure.
ShipShape_RookieBlue_DW
THE COUPLE | Rookie Blue's Andy and Sam
THE LATEST | Traci thanks Andy for brightening up Sam's mood, but Andy tells her they're not back together. Traci then points out that Andy clearly wants to be with Sam.
AWW! | Sam offers Andy a ride home. When she asks why he didn't try and encourage her, he tells her he doesn't have to... because she's the best.
THE FORECAST | While Sam's little declaration might have warmed things up between these two, we're hoping that "McSwarek" starts heating up a whole lot faster.
ShipShape_RB_DW
THE COUPLE | Rookie Blue's Chloe and Dov
THE LATEST | Worried that Dov might not be that into her anymore, Chloe asks Nick to use his police skills and question the cause of her heartbreak.
AWW! | Frustrated with having to come up with creative double entendres and metaphors, Nick finally forces Chloe and Dov to talk about their feelings.
THE FORECAST | Cloudy. This couple needs to learn how to clear things up without bringing Nick into it. A little more conversation would clear those skies pronto.
ShipShape_TheLastShip
THE COUPLE | The Last Ship's Danny and Kara
THE LATEST | To create a distraction as the James slips away through a narrow, shallow channel, Lts. Green and Foster steer a raft loaded with explosives into the hull of their Russian adversary.
AWW! / OUCH! | Danny almost aborts the mission, though, fearing for Kara's life — for as he later reveals, he is in love with his crew mate.
THE FORECAST | Endeavoring to cure a global pandemic whilst dodging Russkies doesn't make for the most romantic mood, but this 'ship may prove to be the definition of "ship shape."
ShipShape_Salem_DW
THE COUPLE | Salem's John and Cotton
THE LATEST | Cotton stands up to his father and does his best to convince the town that the John Alden they sort-of respect and love isn't a witch.
OUCH! | However, that isn't what eventually damns the strong and usually silent John. As he tells Cotton after the trial, he is guilty of fighting with the Mohawk tribe and killing militia men — but he only did it in retaliation. Cotton can't handle the truth and he asks John if they were ever friends, or if he was just a pawn.
THE FORECAST | Now that John knows Mary is a witch, he's going to need his old witch hunting buddy back. But there's a definite chill moving in on that front.
true-blood-alcide-dies-1
THE COUPLE | True Blood's Sookie and Alcide
THE LATEST | As Sookie tries to come up with a plan to save her friends, she and her ex-lover Bill discuss the doubts she's having about her love for Alcide.
OUCH! | Sookie's plan starts to work, ending in a shootout. But as Alcide tries to save Sookie, he's shot in the head, killing him. Faced with the option of turning her dead werewolf beau into a vampire to save his life, Sookie refuses, forever keeping a good-looking man down.
THE FORECAST | A rain of bullets definitely helped sink this ship.
