(#16) Hannibal Lecter
- Hannibal, AFI's 100 Years...100 Heroes & Villains
That's Hannibal, as in Hannibal Lecter. He's not exactly ideal dating material. Plus, Will and Alana seem like the more natural pairing during Season 1.
And then, Season 2 happens. While viewers eventually learn Hannibal isn't seeing Alana for the right reasons, it's still surprising to see him go through the motions with someone.
(#15) Spencer Hastings
- Pretty Little Liars
Pretty Little Liars debuts a hot new couple in Season 6. Spencer and Caleb go from acquaintances to friends to a little bit more. It seems like a natural progression, although a bit rushed. But given the fact that Caleb is Hanna’s ex-boyfriend and half of the beloved Haleb ship, it also feels like a surprising turn.
The couple eventually breaks up in Season 7, causing Haleb fans to cheer.
(#3) April Ludgate
- Parks and Recreation
Andy and April's relationship is so obviously #goals. But at first, goofy man-child Andy and the perpetually sarcastic April feel like a weird pairing. She has a crush on him, and he's oblivious.
Then, they start dating – and get married within a month, which feels like a recipe for disaster. But it's not. Their love story ends up being an integral part of what makes Parks and Recreation so heartwarming.
(#9) Clarke Walters
- The 100
During the first seasons of the show, viewers likely expect Clarke and Bellamy to become a thing. When she has to team up with Lexa, it looks like the two will have to work hard to overcome their differences.
But who would have thought these two would actually get together? They share a passionate kiss before Lexa’s betrayal, then eventually reunite and stay together right until Lexa’s tragic (and controversial) end.
(#2) Mark Sloan
- Grey's Anatomy
Who would think that Little Grey and Sloan would become such a beloved couple in the Grey’s Anatomy universe? Especially since their relationship comes seemingly out of the blue. Lexie asks Mark to teach her about medical stuff. He resists, because she’s Meredith’s little sister and too young for him. But by then end of the episode, Lexie goes up to his hotel room, takes off her clothes, and says “Teach me.”
And then there's the whole tragic ending. We’re not crying, you’re crying.
(#11) Blair Waldorf
- Gossip Girl
At the very beginning of Gossip Girl, it looks like Serena and Dan are endgame. Then there are Blair and Chuck, whose chemistry is the stuff of fairytales. That’s mainly why it was so unexpected to see Queen B paired up with Lonely Boy.
Granted, by that point in the series, Blair and Dan's relationship isn’t even close to the most far-fetched thing going on (remember the whole dowry nonsense?). They spend ages as enemies before eventually becoming friends and more, so it kind of makes sense. That’s probably why some fans are still mourning their untimely split.
