POINTLESS COUPLES. Now some of あなた may have recently answered my pick on this very subject, but that pick alone does not reveal the depths of my annoyance.
Let's face it, most TV shows have epic couples, and not-so-epic couples. But there are shows out there who know just when to allow secondary couples to add color and variety, whereas others simply waste 宇宙 and air-time.
Example: On Gilmore Girls, there were several quirky couples on the side. Kirk/Lulu, Lane/Zach, Sookie/Jackson, Paris/Doyle, Richard/Emily, Babette/Maury...Each of these couples fit beautifully into the plot without taking away from what was going on with Rory and Lorelai. または on the OC. Even for all its drama, the minor relationships on the OC are sometimes もっと見る dramatic and interesting than the ones meant to be in the spotlight. Caleb/Julie, Julie/Luke, Kirsten/Carter...these and others added color to balance out the drama going on with Ryan, Marissa, Summer and Seth.
But then we have a great 表示する like One 木, ツリー 丘, ヒル which has decided to steal valuable screen time that could revolve around Brooke または Naley（ネイサン＆ヘイリー） and waste our time with Chase/Mia または Mouth/Millie.
または Gossip Girl! I 愛 Nate and I wish they would get that guy a plot he can actually work with. I know there are some Nate/Vanessa ファン out there, but honestly whenever his stuff with Vanessa または whoever was on screen, I'd be desperate for it to end so I could get back to Chuck または Blair.
Writers need to stop trying out every couple imaginable just because they run out of ideas. (Rachel/Joey comes to mind.) No romantic couple that is so obviously unimportant/ridiculous/time-wasting will grab our attention in a good way.
But this is just one girl's opinion. または is it?
