Nobody Thinks It Will Work | comment |
A trope frequently seen in Sit Coms and Romantic Comedies. The hero and his love interest are obviously all wrong for each other. They have little in common as far as interests or hobbies are concerned, their personalities are built to clash, and it's obvious that once the shine has worn off the apple, they're going to break up and break up hard. Maybe he's a serious-minded businessman and she's the daughter of two aging hippies who never left The '60s behind. Maybe he's an unambitious semi-jock who has never really done anything in his life, and she's a genius bound for a life of intellectual achievement. Whatever the case, friends, family, and casual acquaintances point out that "This will never work" at every opportunity because nobody in his right mind thinks that the two belong together. Except they do. And when they live Happily Ever After, they prove everyone wrong, because True Love is Exceptional. There is often a scene where the primary naysayers express their incredulity over the situation, or sometimes even recant their disbelief. When the story starts out with the couple married, a recurring plot is one or both spouses getting doubts or clashing, only to reconcile and learn An Aesop about True Love. Often a romantic version of the Odd Couple, though the two romantic leads don't need to literally be opposites. Also frequently involves an Uptown Girl. Often the consequence of Opposites Attract. Compare with Star-Crossed Lovers. Also see What Does She See in Him?, where the question is how the attraction occurred at all, not whether they can make it work. Not to be confused with It Will Never Catch On. |

When Ozzy Osbourne and his now-wife Sharon got married, everyone expected his hard-driving rock and roll lifestyle to destroy any chance they had of staying together. 28 plus years later, in spite of a few close calls before Ozzie finally cut back on the pharmaceuticals, they're still together. | |

Green Arrow and Black Canary. After years of relationship issues (cheating, abusive behavior, etc.), the two finally get married in a mini-arc across both their series in 2007. When they sent out invitations to the wedding, the reactions from most of the superheroes ranged from hysterical laughter to taking bets on how long it would last. For the record, it lasted three years out-of-universe, with Black Canary ending the marriage after her husband's actions during Justice League: Cry for Justice. | |

Fushigi Yuugi, between the Official Couple, of course! It's because she's the Priestess and he's her Seishi, she's from the real world and he's a character in the book, none of the Four Gods would ever allow it, they can't cross the erotic line... it's forbidden love at its extremity. The subversion is that it's a POV only mostly by Tamahome's mentor and by Miaka and Tamahome themselves after they've realized how difficult it is. | |

American Dragon: Jake Long: Referenced, Played for Laughs, and subverted in "Love Cruise". The three protagonists lament how their relationships or crushes with more popular kids have (temporarily) suffered devastating setbacks. They agree that maybe such relationships are always doomed, only to witness an interclique Goth and Pom-Pom Girl couple who have no such feelings. | |

In Shtisel, Ruchami elopes at 15 with Hanina, a boy she'd only met a week or two ago, and had only spoken to in person for the first time that morning! Her parents don't know he exists until they're already married, and she doesn't even know if he has living parents (she finds out his father is alive, but they're estranged). Her parents, especially her mother, try to get him to divorce her, but after meeting him and finding out what he's like, they acquiesce. This is not to say they don't have marital problems, since the show is a drama, after all. | |

Rules: Light Yagami and his love interest Charlie invoke this on themselves by listing all the problems a relationship between them would have: Their personalities would constantly clash, he has to go back to Japan and she'd never do a long-distance relationship, his parents would want him to have an obedient, Japanese homemaker for a wife, and she'll never give up her dream and/or pretend to be someone else just to appease them. All in all, a recipe for disaster — so it's only fitting that the epilogue indicates that they're still going strong, with Charlie even learning how to speak Japanese. | |

The CSI episode "$35k OBO" begins with a couple leaving a restaurant, wishing one another happy anniversary and remarking, "And they said it would never last." Since it's CSI, it doesn't come as all that much of a surprise when the trope is almost instantly violently subverted in more ways than one: Not only are they both murdered, but it turns out they each hired the same hitwoman to kill the other. And they paid up front?! Morons! |

Family Guy: Lois Griffin (née Pewterschmidt) is the bright and attractive daughter of a very wealthy Rhode Island family while her husband, Peter Griffin, is a not-so-bright jock, although this is more of an Odd Couple. Peter points out to Lois in the episode "Brothers & Sisters" that back when he and Lois first became a couple, hardly anyone felt that they made a good match — in fact, as Lois soon realizes, Carol (Lois's sister) was one of the few people to have supported the relationship from the very beginning. | |

I Love Lucy: CBS initially responded to Lucille Ball's insistence that Desi Arnaz play the husband in her TV show by saying they weren't sure if audiences could believe that a celebrity like Lucy had a mixed marriage with an obscure Cuban bandleader. In response, Lucy and Desi gave a vaudeville tour across the country. The tour became a success, proving to the networks that a TV show of the duo would be huge. | |

Friends: Both Rachel and Phoebe look down on Monica and Chandler as a couple, but as neither of them manage to establish a successful relationship until the end of the series, and Monica and Chandler are very happy and well-suited, they come across looking like jealous jerks rather than friends with legitimate concerns. Averted with Joey who thinks they're great and 'going to last forever'. He's proved right. |

Deadpool and Rogue for a period of time. It's canon they both have feelings for one another and went on their first date after sharing their first two kisses -initiated by Rogue in Uncanny Avengers vol 3. Chapter 22. During the kiss, Rogue absorbs Deadpool's powers which weakens her, allowing Wonder Man to finally be set free. In the following chapter, Beast explains how it worked, saying that skin on skin contact made it happen. However, Beast thinks that Rogue was slapping Deadpool, rather than thinking she'd kiss him. Later, Synapse and Brother Voodoo talk about it. The latter is surprised to hear of it, and Synapse says she doesn't think it's really a thing. Quicksilver isn't surprised however, stating that it's natural the two loneliest people in the world found one another. | |

In Full Metal Panic!, this is Kaname's biggest source of hesitation towards attempting a Relationship Upgrade with Sousuke despite her undeniable attraction to him and recognition that he might like her back. Not only do Sousuke's job and background leave him horribly ill-prepared for anything resembling a healthy romantic relationship, but she's also aware of her own reputation as undateably abrasive and is surprised she hasn't already driven him away. Witnessing Sousuke's bloody-minded determination to bring her back home in the four months following Amalgam's assault on Tokyo is what finally gives her the confidence to discard those worries and go for it. When they finally reunite in front of Jindai High School after a year-long life-and-death struggle against Amalgam, they immediately kick the relationship off with a Big Damn Kiss in front of the entire student body. | |

The core premise of Dharma & Greg, Bewitched, and possibly I Dream of Jeannie. In Dharma and Greg they have clashing personalities which their family thinks makes them incompatible; in Bewitched, pretty much all of Samantha's relatives think she's crazy for marrying a mortal; and in I Dream of Jeannie...she lives in a goddamn bottle. The former two series have romantic tension since they start out married, and the last has them begin in a master/more-powerful-servant relationship, making a recurring plot one or both spouses/interests getting doubts or clashing, only to reconcile and learn An Aesop. | |
