Reply to comment by xoomax in I'm astounded each time I watch Person of Interest's "If-Then-Else" by thebetabruh

Totally agreed. I literally blocked that memory out of my head.

The worst thing is that I don't think those types of spontaneous romances are something the studio forced in, because it's not really marketable. Which means it's something the writers thought for some reason would be a good idea.

Certainly a misstep, but not a big one in the grand scheme of things.

The kind of romances that are shoehorned into TV shows at the last minute.

The worst example of these I can think of was Warehouse 13, where the two leads, after having spent YEARS with a sibling-style relationship (and even had an episode specifically about how they are not attracted to each other), suddenly discover that they love each other in the very last episode.
