This has also led to, what's lovingly been dubbed, Shipper Wars. In short, a "shipper" is someone who aggressively supports one half of a love triangle; sometimes going as far as to send mean Tweets to the opposing side, the show's writers and, in the most extreme cases, the actors themselves.
But more often than not, these Wars are simply good-natured debates between fans of triangles both old and new. So, check out the 10 TV couples who have incited the most fan furor!
