Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger Named Among EW's Favorite Fictional Lovers
MiscJust in time for Valentine’s Day, Entertainment Weekly has released a list of Pop Culture’s Best Couples, a ranking of 26 of our favorite true (fictional) lovers. The fictional pairing of characters Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger from the Harry Potter series are included on the list. Along side such iconic fictional couples as Superman and Lois Lane, from the Superman comics; Ricky and Lucy Ricardo, from the classic TV show ‘I Love Lucy;’ and Ross and Rachel, from the TV sitcom ‘Friends;’ Ron and Hermione come in at number 8 with the following description:
RON WEASLEY AND HERMIONE GRANGER
The Harry Potter cycle
Jealousy, betrayal…love potions: That’s teen wizard romance for ya. Harry Potter’s best friends didn’t officially become a couple until Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows but their love/hate relationship turned soap opera in Goblet of Fire. At times they’ve been controversial (Ron/Hermione fans still have scars from their online wars with the Harry/Hermione faithful), but that’s as risqué as this teen duo gets.
Congratulations to our favorite Won-Won and Hermione on this day of love. :)
Thanks to Maponto for mailing.

Awww!!! Yay! R/H are definitely my OTP—I’ve only been shipping them since I was 11 >.<
This kinda made Valentine’s Day worth it.
from that list, aragorn and arwen are way cooler. :)
Happy Valentines Day everyone! Great to see that my favorite HP couple made it on the list! Ahhh! I can’t wait for DH!
hay! what about harry and ginny? o well r/h are a pretty good cuple arnt they? HAPPY VALINTINES DAY POTTER FANS
Awwwwwwww….they are the best, my favourite couple from HP!! HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY ALL POTTER FANS!!
(Ron/Hermione fans still have scars from their online wars with the Harry/Hermione faithful)
Love it. So true haha lol
I’m grinning like a loon here. This makes the ship debater in me very, very happy (even though I’m primarily a Harry/Ginny shipper). Go R/Hr! :D
I agree pigwidgeon, but that only makes me gladder and prouder that Ron and Hermione were included on such a prestigious list. R/Hr forever! :D
Awwww, that made my day. That’s a lovely news for a passionat Ron/Hermione shipper like me. But I agree with Cat. Harry and Ginny at least should have been added. But of course Ron/Hermione was the main romance of the series. :)
This list doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me. How can you have such Iconic characters as Romeo and Juliet, Darcy and Elizabeth Bennett, etc., on the same list as the couple from Battlestar Gallatica. I know it’s a popular show, but come on!
Still I’m glad Ron and Hermione are on there. Hopefully 25 years from now, they’ll still be there.
mh.
Lyra and Will. I agree.
I love R/Hr 4eva! Yayz.
One of my fav pairings in the list. ^^
I doubt that they would have put my other fav up there tho…
Because it is Drarry. lol.
Oh how cute – they made me so happy when they just flew into each others arms and kissed – if there is a list for extreme crushes I say Bellatrix’s crush on Voldemort tops all. Happy Valentines Day! I bought myself Bertie Botts every flavor Beans. they are very interesting just as described.
but my favorite couples still tonks and lupin.i dont like hermione&ron
generally my fvavorites: 1.scarlett&rhett 2.oliver&jennifer (love story) 3.edward&vivian (pretty women) 4.sam&molly (ghost) 5.patrick&kat (10 Things I Hate About You)
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. This is the cutest thing ever ! This totally lifted my spirit! ;) and it made me a little sad. Haha. :) But that’s so cute. (the description) LONG LIVE R/Hr ! <3>
