I agree that it does get tiresome. Kind of like every other show (90210, Melrose Place, Smallville, One Tree Hill, ad infinitum), but the formula has been shown to work.
Unfortunately, for the show, it didn't generate enough viewership because now it's cancelled.  |
I don't really agree... something like Moonlighting maybe I would, or those crappy soaps you listed, but I don't watch Veronica Mars in eager anticipation of whether her and Logan will get back together this week or not, I watch it for the cute detective stuff. So the constant soap opera crap annoys me... they're good together, it works for the show, leave them alone.
Maybe that's me, but the "let's break them up constantly just to do it" thing hurts the show, IMO.
