Couple: These two don’t have an official couple name

Has It Gone Canon? Despite a few close calls, Amy (America Ferrera) and Jonah (Ben Feldman) have yet to act on their insane connection. Superstore continues to push the pairing together, and for now they resist the urges of their star-crossed work crush, leaving us to enduring all of the will-they-or-won’t-they anguish.

Why We Ship It: Okay, yes. In most television series (especially sitcoms), new couples emerge because they initially didn’t get along. It lends a whole heap of credence to the notion of opposites attract. But in Amy and Jonah’s case, they’re tangled in a push and pull because they are not as opposite as they have themselves convinced they are.

Jonah is the elitist business school dropout, which working wife and mother Amy finds exhausting rather than amusing. But something magical happens when they let their guards down and allow themselves to actually enjoy the other’s company. Deep down, they love each other, and it will take the imminent dissolution of Amy’s marriage for them to finally figure that out. Until then, we wait.
