Kace’s Countdown – Top 10 Steamiest Couplings

By Kace

Note: This is an editorial and does not necessarily represent the opinions or position of L-word.com.

It’s time for another exciting edition of the Countdown after some great feedback for the previous edition!  If you have any suggestions for a Top 10 (which I’ll consider and list accordingly)’ by all means contact me at kace@l–word.com and y’never know…I might actually take your suggestion and run with it.  Now’ a feedback to the feedback to the Top 10 characters I’d like to see return/stick around for Season 4.

FEEDBACK FEEDBACK

snQQpy – Yeah’ Danny sucked big time.  I think for all the hatred Candace’s character took from the TiBetters’ I always thought there was a nice quality about her and yes’ that relationship was goin’ downhill with a vengeance ’round the time Candace came into the picture.  As for open mindedness…hey’ we all have our favorites so it’s all good.

klab1972 – Um…ditto the above. :–D

JaneC – I think Dylan’s #1 on quite a few lists if not mine.  I really do hope that she and Helena can resolve things either way.

dmmjsm – Not so sure about Ivan going after Kit’ but havin’ her around would be cool so Ivan can at least give Angus some pointers.  Come to think of it’ a conversation between those 2 would be rather intriguing.

shanerux – I didn’t like the way things ended either.  Season 3’s ending left kind of a bad taste in my and I’m sure a lot of other people’s mouths.

limbfromlimb – Thanks!!!!!

Karang – Hey now’ y’never know…the writers could always bring Candace back to seduce Henry.  … Okay’ that was just disturbing.

scaredkittie – Lenore was close to making the list’ but unfortunately I could only spotlight 10 for the Top 10.  I tell what would be fun…a night out on the town involving Lenore and Peggy.  Picture it in your mind and TRY not to be amused.

techgal – I dunno…considering Tina’s history (what little we’ve had to work with)’ I think this is the real Tina. 

Gigi88 – Oh yes’ Marina fans are still rejoicing as I type this.

adicttosharmen – I doubt I’d be cryin’’ but it would suck if Carmen ain’t able to stick around for Season 4 (like…the whole Season).

lolita4life – Jenny and Max break up?  Were they ever officially together?  I know they’d bump uglies here and there’ but that’s about it.

Gemzo – We’re all getting through with coping.  No Lara in Season 4 = me being bummed a lot.

molok – Hey’ that’s why we have FanFic!  That way she can never die (like Heaven Can Wait for example…I am the MASTER of shameless self promotion’ yes I am!).

Deuce – I’d hate to think that Uta’s served her entire purpose’ though given Erica Cerra’s current work schedule; it may very well be so.

studbagel – I wouldn’t mind seeing Lenore again’ either.  She and Peggy both add a nice sophisticated level of humor.

xSYx – Gabby almost made this list’ but Dylan won out for the last spot.  Lis on the other hand…no.  Don’t get me wrong’ if he ever shows up again’ it’d be cool just to see what he’s up to now.

Codie83 – I was talking with a friend of mine who’s a big fan of both L and QAF (never really cared for QAF myself to be honest) and he brought up the theory that maybe the Showtime people have some sorta clause for their shows in which Season 3 has to piss people off somehow.  Lara has definitely not had enough development and I’m guessin’ that has a lot to do with LL Smith not being listed as one of the "Main" characters’ which is unfortunate.

IAmAlexM – Dax & Jenny?  Drop the M for a D’ eh?  Heheh.  I think you might actually be on to something there.  I have a feeling the Marina fans (and quite possibly the Robin fans) have a different opinion on that.

Great feedback everyone! And now…

Top 10 Steamiest Couplings

This was not easy as I had to consider just the intimate stuff more than the relationships themselves…otherwise this would be a much different list.  This Top 10 is a salute to the explosive chemistry that certain characters just have when in that special moment together.  No male/female couples in this list’ by the way so for anyone upset about Tim or Henry (pause for laughter………  pausing…..  ………………  still pausing……. okay then) or any other fellas not makin’ the list‚ you’re more than welcome to leave yer feedback below.  There were a couple of different couples that just missed this list’ but I may give them an honorable mention if they’re mentioned in feedback.

#10– Alice/Lara (Season 3)
They’re just getting started (hopefully) as Season 3 comes to an end.  The circumstances that brought these two together’ the death of Dana is indeed tragic’ but once we get past that….damn they look good together!

#9– Bette/Candace (Season 1)
Well if you’re gonna cheat’ make it worthwhile and Bette certainly did that in Season 1.  How effective was Candace’s charm and abilities?  Bette did it with a prison wall’ just for Candace.  Candace had the amazing ability to assume control whenever the two were together and their hotel romp during Limb From Limb is something to be remembered.

#8– Cherie/Shane (Seasons 1 & 3)
Got MILF?  Let’s just ignore the storyline and consider the fun these two characters had together in Season 1’ from neckin’ in the car to Shane giving Cherie the "just fucked" look to some poolside fun in Season 3’ it’s hard to deny that these two had a certain something together that can’t be explained in mere words.

#7– Dana/Lara (Seasons 1 & 3)
The coupling that hooked me to L in the first place’ so why are they only 7th on this list?  ’Cause they just looked so darn cute together!  The cuteness factor kinda counted against them being 1st’ but there were times where they brought enough heat to light up a fading star.  ’Sides’ ya just can’t help but like a couple that’s willing to try stealth sex around friends during a sleepover.

#6– Jenny/Marina (Season 1)
From the Pilot where they meet to the end of their relationship’ these two were not afraid to go at each other full–on and all out.  With Marina expected to return in Season 4’ maybe it’s not over just yet!  And it’s not like Tim’s around to obstruct this time’ either.

#5– Alice/Uta (Season 3)
What happens when Lesbian Vampire FREEEEEEEEAK hooks up with a Lesbian Vampirologist?  Magic….with a little bondage.  This coupling managed to tap into something that had been discussed previously about Gabby’ which was a hint of BDSM.  To quote a Def Leppard song’ "Love Bites…love bleeds."

#4– Dylan/Helena (Season 3)
The storyline is irrelevant…just watch the scenes.  Even the mere simple kisses had the ability to fog one’s glasses.  I tell ya’ it’s doubtful any tea I’ve ever had could as tasteful.

#3– Alice/Dana (Seasons 1 & 2)
From 4 AM to Whether You Fall’ anytime these two connected it was special. Their occassional trysts during Dana’s relationship with Tonya became a guilty pleasure among fans and continue to be talked about today’ especially their Finally moment where they went at it for quite a while. Alice & Dana had the ability to combine sensuality’ sex and humour into one awesome package.  They roleplayed’ they used toys… I can’t think of much that they didn’t do together and through it all’ I was entertained.

#2– Shane/Carmen (Seasons 2 & 3)
Don’t squeeze the Sharmen!!!  Oh’ who am I kiddin’…go right ahead!  Two of their scenes in Season 2 alone pretty much garners them this spot on the list’ including the first meeting between the two and their Season 2 Finale romp where they realize their feelings and stop holding back.  Season 3 provided more melodrama’ but they still had’ "It."  Hopefully it’s not over between these two.

#1– Bette/Tina (Seasons 1 & 2)
I gotta admit as someone who’s not the most hardcore Bette/Tina Shipper that these two can do no wrong when together intimately.  Every kiss’ every touch’ every lick (including tongues at one point)’ every caress has always been spot on with these two.  Jennifer Beals and Laurel Holloman gave of themselves while together on screen as Bette and Tina and if this were football’ it could be said that at the end of every love scene (and even that one disturbing love/fight scene in Limb From Limb) everything was left on the field of play.  If it’s over between these two then so be it’ but damn…thanks for the memories left behind.  But if it ain’t over (which I hope it isn’t when it comes right down to it)’ then hopefully Season 4’ll give us more chemistry with these two in a way that still compares with their previous romps.

Comments: Best scene between Bette/Tina: after their first ultrasound appointment, they're putting the groceries away in the fridge when Tina...hmmm. It was breathtaking, that scene. The way Bette held back, having to leave all the moves to Tina..ooooh

Comments: my 4 favorite couples are in the first 4 places with TiBette leading... absolutely...thanks Kace

Comments: Thank goodness TiBette is #1! It's funny that "everyone" wants them together but "Mini-me IC" is hell bent on keeping them apart. I have to look back at the previous interviews when IC stated she saw the chemistry between Jennifer and Laurel but yet we never got the true scope of how "hot"they were together as Bette and Tina. Everything has been past tense about there pairing. If S4 is as bad as S3- Showtime can have my subscription back!

Comments: I for one think that Carmen and Jenny are hot together... But I guess I am the only one... I agree on your choices on the top 5 though, spot on.

Comments: I would have put Alice/Dana as #1, but other than that, I just totally agree with your list. Great list. Thanks.

Comments: BETTE AND TINA ARE HOT AND # 1!!!!!!!!!!!

From: JaneC
Comments: My vote goes to Dylena! Sure their story is totally standalone, and so irrelevant, but it's strong enough as it is!

From: profoundexcuse
Comments: Well, I gotta say, I'm a hardcore Sharmen shipper, but Tibette definitely is a close second. Despite my feelings on the couples themselves and everything else, I agree 100% with Tibette being first because: 1. Laurel and Jennifer are amazing actresses, and 2. They've stood out as an incredibly hot and steamy couple despite their more... mature age than the rest of the cast. Oh, and what? No "FREE TIBETTE!" Or "Eat a Danish!"? And I just realized that Cherie and Shane is Chane, like what Carmen's mother calls Shane. That's a little freaky. Okay, I'm done now. Sorry that was so long.

From: Torian
Comments: I just finished rewatching sesaon 1 & 2. Bette and Tina are the reason why I started watching. They are definately steamy together, whether in love scenes or arguing. One thing IC did right was to cast Jennifer and Laurel as Bette and Tina. Their chemistry together is on fire!! Right on!! Please more love scenes between them.



2006-09-26, 23:46:48 PM

Comments: you are so right and B&T are so hot together, Jeniffer and Laurel have been doing a great job together

From: Lizbett
Comments: YHEA!!!!!!SHARMEN all the way, they are so hot together!!!



2006-09-28, 20:48:59 PM
From: funnyone
Comments: You forget Bette and the Senator. Many of us wanted to see that blossom, although we understood Bette not going there at the time. Even in the refusal, it was steamier than many of the actual couplings.

From: Brownie84
Comments: Bette and Tina all the dayum Way!!! I snooze at all the other love scenes(sorry),cus guess what? I don't get into them(they don't do it for moi). But Lawd knows,I'm up and alert once B&T get it on and popping. (sigh) I miss them. Just so tender and intense at the same time. I will be damn!!!!



2006-09-30, 09:40:28 AM
From: neetyvg
Comments: I'd have to go with Alice/Dana as #1. They rock and the love (yes, let's face it they did love one another) scenes are awsome! Never have I been so moved by a TV show when seeing Alice's reaction to Dana death and that damn plant. For god's sake it's a TV series...not real! But I couldn't sleep that night!



2006-09-30, 13:37:29 PM
From: Dainty
Comments: Bette and Tina all the way for me. Never Have I seen such chemistry between two people, whether it be same sex or opposites. Those two young ladies really smoke up the screen with their chemsitry and passion. Bring it on girls!!!!!



2006-10-01, 04:21:52 AM
From: faten
Comments: Oh my gosh 'funnyone' you are SO right on about Bette and Senator Grisham! They should've totally been on that list. Although technically they weren't a couple, just a potential hook-up. Which got me thinking... someone should make a list of Top Ten Hookups!! I think Bette/Senator would give Sharmen a run for their money!

From: lolita4life
Comments: for me i would have to go by season because there are just too many hot couplings to choose from!my votes are:season 1- jenny & marinaseason 2- alice & danaseason 3- shane & carmen

From: kayleeErynn
Comments: 1) I hate Candace and Marina so sorry gals but they dont deserve the list lol. 2) I think Jenny and Carmen should just take over Jenny and Marina's spot. 3) I totally agree with #1 - TiBette 4ever!!: There scenes are so passionate and moving(not to mention inferno H-O-T). I think that there is enough bad in the world, so give us back TiBette!!!! GET RID OF HENRY!!!!!

Comments: Hmm...~looks around~ i enjoyed helena's seductive ways in that pool scene with tina...I liked candace, well before she started to get a little "stalky"...And Im so Over TiBEttE!!~runs and hides~

From: miatia
Comments: Well, Kace, you hit it on the head!!! I especially agree with couples one through four. Don't really care about the rest. But Bette and Tina will always be Numero Uno for me whether they get back together or not! And hats off to Jennifer Beals and Laurel Holloman for their beautifully acted intimacies.

Comments: Shane and anyone is HOT! I loved Shane and Carmen and I am VERY sad it is over.
