Outlander (Roger & Bree) vs. NCIS (Gibbs & Sloane) – ‘Shiptober poll
In today’s edition of ‘Shiptober, we’ve got what we would consider to be a battle between underdogs as round 2 comes to a close! Entering the first round, we didn’t have Roger & Bree of Outlander or Gibbs & Sloane of NCIS seeded high. Yet, they were both able to unseat some strong duos in this tournament to make it here. Now, one of them is going to have a chance to create a little bit of chaos in the rounds to come.

Roger & Bree, Outlander (#6 seed) – This isn’t the first year that Richard Rankin and Sophie Skelton’s characters have been involved in the tournament; yet, they may have more momentum than ever this time around. Think about things this way. We’re coming off of a huge season for the two — they’re now parents and they’ve been through a lot, but they have a chance to now be together and happy. Given that this is Outlander, there will be setbacks — here’s to hoping that they can pull through them!
Gibbs & Sloane, NCIS (#7 seed) – This couple, otherwise known as “Slibbs,” has made quite a journey in ‘Shiptober already! This duo, played by Mark Harmon and Maria Bello, has already advanced through both the play-in tournament and then also a showdown with frequent ‘Shiptober contender Waverly & Nicole. While there is not any confirmation at present as to whether or not Slibbs will actually get together, there’s clearly been some movement in that direction. Now, the question becomes whether or not this could turn into something more.
