This week – Supernatural
gave us a brotherly hug, Glee is
distancing its big couples and bringing in new love triangles. FemSlash and
Slash madness are coming to a close, Sterek gets humorous, another shipping
poll and much much more.
Spoiler warning: Supernatural
Season 8, Glee Season 4, Once Upon a Time Season 2, Awkward Season 2.
Faberry is kicking some serious butt over at the AfterEllen Femslash madness and after a
rough start it looks as though Sterek is going to become AfterElton’s Ultimate Slash couple – at least this year. Anyway
after all the drama began to settle down both teams found common ground and
people even started to ship Destiel with Sterek. Now those are people after my
own heart because why pick one when you can have both.
In Supernatural news The
CW released a clip which held good and bad news for shippers. Wincest shippers
were rewarded with a beautiful reunion scene between the brothers (after the
obligatory demon/shifter/leviathan checks of course). Dean’s back after being
trapped in purgatory for a year and boy is Sam happy to see him.
It’s not all good news though because it seems that Cas didn’t make
it, we don’t really know what happened only that Dean REALLY doesn’t want to
talk about it. Things are not looking good for Destiel shippers… it’s OK though
because Destiel shippers received some good news this week. Real Life OTP Misha
Collins and Vicki Vanouch are about to welcome their 2nd child… and
I don’t mean in 6 months time, I mean this weekend. Way to keep a secret Misha
and Congratulations!
Glee time – it’s not looking good for Finchel and Klaine fans. Kurt
and Blaine didn’t even acknowledged each other for the whole ep and although
Rachel was supposedly missing Finn she still did a sexy tango (and almost
kissed) new boy Brody. By the end of the episode she was painting over her Finn
mural – symbolic maybe?
New ship Jarley (Puck 2.0 aka Jake and the new Rachel, Marley)
looked like it was going strong that is until it turned out that Jake is
already dating the bitchy blonde cheerleader that is not Quinn. I wouldn’t
worry though; something tells me that these two will get together by the end of
the season (it might be because they are just recycling the same old story but
then again maybe I’m just psychic).
Opps I did it again… I started shipping Rachel with a bitchy blonde.
Yes that’s right I’m talking about Kate Hudson’s Cassandra July. I mean did you
see the way she was looking at Rachel during her tango and my goodness when
Rachel was helping Cassandra stretch – my computer screen fogged up. But maybe
it’s just me?
Anyway back in the land of the slightly sane people that don’t see
rainbows wherever they look there is another poll (if you’re not totally polled
out by femslash and slash madness). Portrait Magazine is holding their sixth annual Top TV ships poll and they’re asking
for you to nominate you’re favourite ships and before we have another fiasco
like the EW one – they are only accepting couples that are together or have
been together on the show, which means no Sterek.
Apparently the reason for this ruling is because of that one time
they let Peter and Claire from Heroes
make the list and they turned out to be related. While I think these rules
pretty much defy the point of shipping – being related is no deterrent for most
people – but it’s good that they actually explained the guidelines at the
beginning so if you’ve got a ship that is actually a couple (lucky you) then
you should get nominating.
In other news – Belle and Rumplestiltskin (Once Upon a Time) seem to be having a bit of trouble in the clip
released this week, with Rumplestiltskin hell bent on revenge whereas Belle is
more of a forgive and forget kind of girl. I don’t know about you but I’m still
rooting for those two. Also Jenna picked Matty over Jake on Awkward – but did she make the right
choice?
Finally – to reward fans for making 2 million likes on Facebook Teen Wolf released a special Sterek themed
gag reel. It has lots of adorable Dylan O’Brien (seriously I just kind of want
to nibble on all of him) and wonderful images of Tyler Hoechlin’s smile (which
we get to see so rarely on the show). All in all a very nice reward for the
hard fighting Sterek fans.
Well that rounds up another episode of shipping news, let’s hope
that this week – with more shows returning – that love is in the air and that
all your ships come true.
Don’t forget you can send me you’re shipping news via Twitter, post
it on the Facebook page or just leave a comment below. I love you’re comments…
they are like crack to me.
P.S I’m going to be doing a Top Ten of the best Destiel or Sterek
moments this week so if you have any nominations send them my way and check
back next week to find out to find out what made the list.
