Might I humbly submit John Crichton and Aeryn Sun of Farscape to the list?

Because the first time she sees him, she pins his shoulders to the ground with her knees and demands, "Rank and regiment!"

Because she has been raised in a military culture, and he tells her right up front, "You could be so much more," and takes his time drawing her out and learning her history before making any moves.

I want to say something more about their cultures, or how this is just a great show with an ensemble cast. I've been known to refer to Farscape as "Star Trek, minus the political correctness and happy ending to every episode." But basically, if you're looking for something new, stop by the video store someday and rent the pilot episode. s:)
