Can't Buy Me Chemistry

Writer's can set up the best pairing since Adam and Eve but without the chemistry between actors, there's really no future for the couple. Sometimes it turns out to be a pleasant surprise no one saw coming, sometimes it leads to frustration because it results in wicked storylines the writers go through to get the couple together. Either way, chemistry is pivotal for a show and coming up are my absolute favorite chemical couples on the tube.

Tony & Tea (Skins US)

He's a punk in a re

lationship who sleeps around, she's a no-love lesbian who enjoys life. What neither of them can stand is that th

ey are inexplicable attracted to each other. When James Newman and Sofia Black D'Elia don't just have chemistry they have electricity. Watching them struggle with their feelings for each other was a treat during the show's first season. For Tony it was the first girl he couldn't have, but wanted to and for Tea he was everything that she didn't want, but wanted anyway. Their future doesn't look very good, what with this affair breaking up the group of friends and her choosing her girl crush in the finale, but one thing is for sure. These two are destined for explosion.

Chuck & Blair (Gossip Girl)

For anyone who watches the show, this pairing is inevitable. For anyone who doesn't, it probably doesn't mean anything. But Chuck Bass and Blair Waldorf might just be the modern

, spoiled versions of Romeo & Juliet. Bend

ing in shark jumping story lines to keep the two apart (or together) the writers can get away with pretty much anything because Ed Westwick and Leighton Meester explode on screen. They cannot be in the same shot without you thinking their going to, uhm, make love. They are both evil, wicked and questionably mental and they both deserve each other. But there's a sense of pride, destiny and passion that makes their affair complicated. Nevertheless, Chair is the reason GG is still remotely watchable and I can't wait to see what happens when a tornado meets a volcano, because this is not a couple that can drive off into the sunset, they're more likely end in a complete massacre.

Jeff & Annie (Community)

Granted, these two don't have to be apart. There's no moral compass that keeps them from being with each ot

her and if anything, their fire has been on a down low in season 2. Yet no one can deny the way he looks at her when he doesn't see her as the winy little wise cracker or how she sees passed his charades of cool fatherly player. In the final seconds of the season one finale, Jeff had to choose between two beautiful women and he ran off to run into Annie and kiss her passionately. Since then, the kiss only was dealt with platonically and it seems like the writers keep this union as a trick for future seasons. It's not that bad, since we don't want another Ross/Rachel affair that span the entire series, but this fan cannot wait until sparks fly again between the odd, yet awesome couple.

Finn & Quinn (Glee)

During the first season this pairing was dreadf

ul to watch. His stupidity and her lies were an utter waist of screen time. But now, a year, a baby and various love affairs with others later the cheerleadingcaptain and the quarterback are giving it another go. And not in the sit-down-and-talk kind of way. She was with her boy-version and he was recovering from his first true love. Then there was a kissing booth. Blame it on Dianna Agron's smoldering looks or Cory Monteith's endless stare, but this coupling was the first, out of the show's many, pairing that felt right. They're each other's weaknesses, their only mistakes and as Quinn explained painfully honest, probably each others destinies. With Glee's rapid speed there's no way Q/F are going to last beyond prom, but for now, oh baby, they are fireworks.

Sookie & Eric (True Blood)

Sorry Damon and Elena, they were here first. Sookie, portrayed by Anna Paquin, and Eric, played by Alexander Skarsgard, have unbearable chemistry. Unbearable as in, it makes the coupling of Sookie and Bill so disgustingly boring that you might want to skip everything until the blondies get together. True, Eric might just be obsessed with Sookie because of her fairy-powers (don't ask), but what's Sookie's deal? She wants Bill, the brooding, low voiced vampire that walked in and swooned her. Yet, she finds herself attracted to the significantly taller Eric, whether she admits it or not. So far the writer's have done a pleasant job teasing the fans, because an actual pairing doesn't seem to be in the cards. We have to do with sex dreams and a unplanned kiss, but as far as I'm concerned, that's fine. We don't want to see Sookie and Eric play house and once this partnership makes it to the "real" world, there won't be anything left to want. Let the agonizing staring continue.
