Brothers & Sisters

It wasn't very long ago that we deemed Robert and Kitty "headed for splittsville" on Brothers & Sisters.

After all, Robert was focused on his campaign; and Kitty had grown interested in a new man, Alec.

But Rob Lowe told CBS News last week that Kitty's illness will bring these two closer together, a positive side effect to her unfortunate condition.

"Last season was the study of a disintegration of a marriage and we begin this year worlds apart," the actor said. "[But the sickness is] going to be what they needed to try to put the pieces back together."

Do you wanna see Robert and Kitty together? Or are they better off apart?
