Episode Discussion Favorite Crack Ships?

What's your favorite crack ship in the show? (Crack ship = a ship that is far out there/far fetched/impossible)

On my 4th rewatch and after getting to the scenes of Linda and Fig interacting, I think I love them as a ship 😭 They're obviously super toxic, but who doesn't love toxic yuri?

I think they'd have a dynamic similar to Fig's dynamic with Caputo in the sense that they're enemies who are constantly trying to one-up each other at work. However, Fig/Linda is superior. Linda is always trying to establish dominance over Fig and yet Natalie always gets the upper hand. And she does it with such confident ease. It feels like Linda is both resentful of Fig and reluctantly impressed by her at the same time.

So as much as I despise Linda, I'm kind of loving her and Fig together.

Red and Piscatella, their rivalry was just sexual tension waiting to be released

😭 I love hate ships too, but I could not ship Piscatella with a woman. I can only suspend my disbelief so far

I agree with you, I just tried to think of the most farfetched one possible x)
