shippery

1. slanguncountablelifestyleThe act or practice of supporting or approving of a romantic relationship (ship) between characters.

   I found both the leads annoying and it seemed like nothing more than a showcase for two famous actors one of whom is deaf. It seemed very artificial and I'm not really a shipper in any way and it was 2 hours of continuous shippery.

   I'm a noromo. I mostly care about the story. I don't pick up on or remember shippery things that Mulder and Scully do with each other during the ep that don't advance the story.
