Tamoti, I have always enjoyed your comments, and this one is no different.

I never noticed that the atypical ones are the oens that are rushed, but the typical ones get so much focus and development. The writers and producers are always trying to shove in the generic relationships in our faces, while the more interesting ones are always side plots that are take-it or leave-it.

They should focus more on the atypical couples, and try to make them more believable to the viewers, like you said. I don't agree that those types of relationships never last (because I have seen many that do), but you can't rush these non-generic and engaging couples that are full of potential.

I think the ones that suffer from this the most are Samkota, LeHarold, Zoke, and Jashawn. The more vibrant and bold characters/couples are almost always fodder and replacable. Lyler and AnneVito really are plot devices, which is why they are handled with no care. Ozzy is a plot device as well.
