One of the biggest TV tropes is the will-they-won't-they between two characters. Every viewer can see it coming, but we don't care. We're suckers for it. The only issue truly is making sure it's done right. Pull the trigger too soon and put these two destined lovers together in Season 2, and all the tension is gone. Wait several seasons to put them together, or worse, have them get together, breakup, and get together again (we're looking at you Ross and Rachel!), and it turns the drama into a slog.
