To see all the 9th annual BOTVA winners this year HERE To see all of the all time winners you can find them HERE The 2017 Best Of TV Awards winner in the category of Best Couple is - LUCIFER MORNINGSTAR & CHLOE DECKER "LUCIFER" This years winner for Best Couple is Lucifer Morningstar & Chloe Decker "Lucifer", giving them their award in this category. The pair won with 167 votes. It is not rare to see a couple who only shared a couple fleeting romantic moments get nominated, or even make the finals, but to win? Till now, it was unheard of. Lucifer & Chloe shared a few hot moments in early 2017 before the writers shelved their will they wont they games permanently. But it was enough for the shows fans to vote for them as a couple. The ultra charismatic Tom Ellis, who is the lead of Lucifer makes the fans of the show so inspired, he probably would have had a chance to win if he made out with a pork chop, let alone the shows current lead actress Lauren German. This is the first BOTVA award for Lucifer in any category. I can stated right now, it will not be their last. Runner Up was 2014 winners, Oliver Queen & Felicity Smoak "Arrow" with 120 votes. This was their 4th consecutive finals appearance & 2nd runner up. (1st, 2nd, 5th) Third was Waverley Earp & Nicole Haught "Wynonna Earp" with 73 votes.

This was the pairs first finals appearance. Emma Swan & Captain Hook "Once Upon A Time" was 5th with 54 votes. This was their 4th finals appearance (4th, 8th, 6th). Alex Danvers & Maggie Sawyer "Supergirl" was 6th with 50 votes in their first finals. Barry Allen & iris West "The Flash" was 7th for the 3rd consecutive year with 46 votes. Joyce Byers & Bob Newby "Stranger Things" was 8th with 41 votes in their first finals appearance. Sheldon Cooper & Amy Farrah Fowler "The Big Bang Theory" was 9th with 37 votes in their 5th finals. Rebecca & Jack Pearson "This Is Us" & Jiya Marin & Rufus Carlin "Timeless" tied for 10th with 35 votes each, both in their first finals. 1st LUCIFER MORNINGSTAR & CHLOE DECKER "LUCIFER" 167 2nd OLIVER QUEEN & FELICITY SMOAK "ARROW" 120 3rd WAVERLEY EARP & NICOLE HAUGHT "WYNONNA EARP" 73 4th Jake Peralta & Amy Santiago "Brooklyn Nine Nine" 59 5th Emma Swan & Captain Hook "Once Upon A Time" 54 6th Alex Danvers & Maggie Sawyer "Supergirl" 50 7th Barry Allen & Iris West "The Flash" 46 8th Joyce Byers & Bob Newby "Stranger Things" 41 9th Sheldon Cooper & Amy Farrah Fowler "The Big Bang Theory" 37 10th Rebecca & Jack Pearson "This Is Us" 35 10th Jiya Marin & Rufus Carlin "Timeless" 35 This is the lowest total for a win. The previous record was in 2016 with Samantha Groves & Sameen Shaw "Person Of Interest" with 209. This is the smallest margin of victory with 47. Previous smallest was 2012 Richard Castle & Kate Beckett "Castle" winning by 58 over Lauren Lewis & Bo Dennis "Lost Girl". This was the first time since 2012 that there was not a show with 2 finalists.

While its never really fully stated that 1 of the pair had the same feelings as the other, it was undeniable that when on screen together, they had chemistry. This marks the 4th time in the 6 years of this award that same sex couple has won the award. With 209 votes they beat the runner ups by 70 votes. This years Runner up was the 2012 winners, Richard Castle & Kate Beckett "Castle" (Caskett) with 139 votes.. Third was Nick Burkhardt & Adalind Schade "Grimm" in their 1st finals with 95 votes.

This years Best Couple winner is technically not even a couple.... but met the categories dynamics (something a specific fan base in the opening round had trouble understanding). Samantha Groves, aka Root and another member of Team Machine Sameen Shaw won the Best Couple based off the 1 kiss they shared last year in episode 411 after a lot of suggestions from Root that they should be together, which till that moment Shaw had ignored. While the deranged "couple" still havent found each other since then, the fans of the couple known as "Shoot" (reasonably named considering the duos penchant for guns & just happens to be a combination of Shaw & Root) havent stopped hoping. In 2nd was last years super couple, the 2014 BOTVA winners Oliver Queen & Felicity Smoak "Arrow". The popularity of this couple, known as Olicity with a select part of the shows fandom is not in dispute. In 3rd was the 2012 Winners Richard Castle & Kate Beckett "Castle", known as Caskett by their fans. In 4th was Robin Hood & Regina Mills "Once Upon A Time" in their 1st ever finals in this category known as Outlaw Queen with their fandom. Clarke Griffin & Lexa The Commander "The 100" in their 1st ever finals in this category Clexa as they are known by the fans finished 5th. 6th place found the 2011 & 2013 Winners Bo Dennis & Lauren Lewis "Lost Girl" in their 5th consecutive finals. Doccubus had never finished worse than 2nd prior to this year. In 7th was Barry Allen & Iris West "The Flash" known as WestAllen by the fans. This is the 2nd finals in a row for Barry Allen, who made it last year with Felicity Smoak, while Iris West is here for the 1st time. Another "Once Upon A Time" couple in 8th as Captain Hook & Emma Swan. "Captain Swan" finished 4th last year. In 9th is the on again off again couple of Steve McGarrett & Catherine Rollins "Hawaii Five-0" down 1 spot from where McRoll finished last year. 10th was Sheldon Cooper & Amy Farrah Fowler "The Big Bang Theory" The couple known as ShAmy were finalists in 2012 & 2013, but missed last years finals. Prince Charming & Snow White "Once Upon A Time" were back for a 3rd time. Snowing made the finals prior in 2011 and 2013. Thea Queen & Roy Harper "Arrow" made the finals for a 2nd consecutive year. Sam Swarek & Andy McNally "Rookie Blue" known as McSwarek by the fans made the finals for the 1st time. Santana Lopez and Brittany Pierce "Glee" known as Brittana to the fans, made the finals in the shows last year of eligibility. Voting for this award saw 4 different leaders over the 1st two days. Clexa, Caskett, Olicity and Shoot all had the lead at different times. Eventually Shoot pulled away in the final couple days. This is the 2nd award (Sexiest Actress) of these BOTVAs for Amy Acker (the actress who plays Root) and 3rd honour (2015 May Madness winner as well). This is the 1st award for Sarah Shahi (actress who plays Shaw). Complete Final Results

Second and third were newcomers to the finals The 100 and Person of Interest. Other newcomers to the finals that were not there last year include How To Get Away With Murder, Daredevil, iZombie & Greys Anatomy. Not making the finals this year who were there last were Castle, Sherlock, Murdoch Mysteries, Doctor Who, The Flash, The Big Bang Theory. The Favorite TV Character Category is always possibly one of the most sought titles here. This year seems to be no different as 3 finalists got over the 1000 vote mark and another was close. Defending champion Felicity Smoak from "Arrow" finds herself fending off challenges from three "Person Of Interest" challengers (would have been more if it werent for the new rule about a maximum of 3 candidates in a category from any show). Root, aka - Samantha Groves (the 2015 May Madness character winner) led voting barely over her co-star Sameen Shaw. Harold Finch, another POI character finished 4th not far behind. Only 4 people left from the first ever Favorite Character Finals that are eligible, and all 4 of them, for a 4th consecutive year still find themselves in the finals. 3 time winner Dean Winchester, along with his co-star Castiel from "Supernatural", as well as Bo Dennis "Lost Girl" and Richard Castle "Castle" all managed spots in the finals again. With the list expanding from 40 to 55 names this year, there was a lot of newcomers to the finals. Most notably Sameen Shaw in 2nd & Harold Finch in 4th from Person Of Interest. John Diggle from Arrow in 10th is in the finals, at the expense of 3 Arrow characters that made last years finals when there was no cap on finalists from a show. Several shows have finalists who either were not even around last year, or had never managed a finalist prior to now. The 100 with 3, iZombie, Rookie Blue, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt all with 2 each, Agent Carter, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Daredevil, How To Get Away With Murder with 1 each. Missing from the finals this year however from last years list is last years runner up Kenzi from "Lost Girl" probably due to her lack of screen time this year. Sara Lance/Canary from Arrow also missed out due to the maximum candidates rule. Both candidates from the Murdoch Mysteries, William Murdoch & Julie Ogden fell well short in the semi-finals this year, with Ogden finishing last. Sherlock Holmes & John Watson from "Sherlock" of course missed this years due to the shows hiatus. The Best Couple Category is another hotly contested award here every year. For such a pointless award compared to more respectable titles it does garner a lot of very crazy and some very passionate fans. This year has been mired in controversy of course, again, as it is almost every year. But again the "Arrow" combo of Oliver Queen & his now fiance Felicity Smoak (aka "Olicity") led the semi-final voting over the very unstable sort of couple of Root & Shaw (aka "Shoot") from "Person of Interest". Clarke & Lexa (Clexa) from "The 100" were a bit further behind in 3rd. The top 4 finalists from last year all find themselves back in the finals again. Along with Olicity, Castle & Beckett "Caskett", Bo & Lauren "Docubbus" & Emma & Hook "CaptainSwan" all made the finals again. Missing the finals this year are Kenzi & Hale from Lost Girl due to 1 or both characters not being on the show anymore. Kurt Hummel & Blaine Anderson from "Glee" who seemingly were replaced by another Glee couple it seems. Damon & Elena from "The Vampire Diaries" which was a mild shock to me, but with 1 of the leads having left the show I guess it was out of sight, out of mind for their fans. Barry Allen & Felicity Smoak, yet both characters find themselves in the finals. Besides Shoot & Clexa, there were a few other new additions. barry Allen & Iris West (WestAllen) "The Flash", Robin Hood & Regina Mills (OutlawQueen) "Once Upon A Time" Santana Lopez & Brittany Pierce "Glee". After missing last years finals by 5 votes Amy Farrah Fowler & Sheldon Cooper "ShAmy" from "The Big Bang Theory" find themselves back in after 1 year out of the finals, along with Snow White & Prince Charming from "Once Upon A Time" who also were in 2013 but missed out in 2014. With all 3 former champions in this category, along with a couple new serious contenders, I expect a lot of fanbases ahrd at work trying to push their choices to the top in the finals. On that note, it should be noted that ONE finalist (and 2 others...but on lesser scales) had more than 1 person attempt to purposely cheat in the semi-finals, logging in 1000s of votes by circumventing the IP rule.... but, as those from past years are aware... thats not the only line of defense I use to stop this. Those votes were all discared and ONLY votes for that candidate from other voters were counted. Attempts like that in the finals wont be handled so delicately. The Final round of the 2015 Best Of TV Awards will be under way with some categories soon. Each voting round will last 3 to 6 days.. Voting, and a complete list of nominees in all categories can be found HERE The Winner of the 2014 Best Of TV Award for Best Couple is.... Oliver Queen & Felicity Smoak "Arrow"
I suppose the characters played by this years Sexiest Actor & Actress Winners seemed like a safe bet for the Best Couple category. Oliver Queen & Felicity Smoak from "Arrow" or as theya re more known by their fans "Olicity" win this years Best Couple. Beating out the 2X champions from "Lost Girl" Lauren Lewis & Bo Dennis & the 2013 Winners Richard Castle & Kate Beckett from "Castle" With 1,745 Olicity sets a new record for votes in this category i the finals, breaking the old mark of 1,350 by last years winners Lauren & Bo. The 482 vote margin of victory also is a new record, breaing last years mark of 266. Olicity had the lead in voting from the beginning of voting & never relinquished it. The couple known as Doccubus from "Lost Girl" Lauren & Bo came in 2nd with a total of 1,263. Which was well ahead of the 2012 Champions Richard & Kate (Caskett) from "Castle" in 3rd. Well back in 4th was Captain Hook & Emma Swan (Captain Swan) from "Once Upon A Time" with 308 votes. Last year 2 OUAT couples made the finals, this year neither of them were back, seemingly being replaced by CaptainSwan. In 5th is another Lost Girl duo, Kenzi & Hale Santiago. In 6th was last years 3rd place finalists Kurt Hummel & Blaine Anderson (Klaine) from "Glee".
