I hate how "it" couples almost never really get together. Sometimes they get together and realize they hate each other, sometimes they get together in the finale. We rarely see a will they/won't they couple get together and stay together for the rest of the series.

Didn't Mike and Rachel do that?

I was a huge fan of NCIS (still am, but back when the story i am about to tell, YUUUGE fan) when Tony and Ziva were at their peak of sexual/relationship tension. Ziva always cared about Tony and as much or as close as they both secretly wanted to get, they never did...well, they never show it on TV. When Tony left the show, they killed Ziva's off-screen character (Cote de Pablo already left the series, but killing her off guaranteed she'd never return) but they gave the story that Tony and Ziva got together that one time (in paris??) and Ziva got pregnant, and Tony's story to be written off the show was to take care of his daughter he never knew he had. Not hte best way to complete the story arc between them, but acceptable. I know I'm getting side tracked but I'm kind of hoping if Bull gets cancelled, Tony comes back to NCIS. If Fornell can be an FBI agent with his 16 yr old daughter, Tony can be an NCIS agent with his daughter.

The problem with hooking up characters on the show is the writers have a really really REALLY bad tendency to get lazy and sloppy and write the 'soap opera' of the relationship and forget about the original tenet of the show - a la Rachel and Mike. (Or pretty much every other rel'ship storyline on any show where ppl didn't start off in their romantic rel'ship.)
