Two characters that used to be a couple broke up. They got bored of each other or argued too much, he just wouldn't put the seat down, she used too much toilet paper, whatever. Emotionally or mentally they didn't think they were right for each other. Sexually, however, they still get along just fine. They may only get to kissing each other or get further than that, but as long as they're reinitiating a physical relationship it's fair game. It can naturally take on a variety of forms, as people are complicated; it may just be sex and friendship, it may be a pattern of hooking up, swearing to never see each other again, and hooking up again, or they could go back into a relationship. May lead to getting back together, particularly if it starts after a separation or after they've moved on to other people for added drama/comedy. Naturally, a common sitcom trope. Subtrope of Amicable Exes, where they're really amiable. Supertrope to New Old Flame. May lead to a Relationship Revolving Door situation. |

Gilmore Girls: Lorelai and her baby daddy/High School Sweatheart Christopher have sex in the first season when he comes to town and they have an emotional argument with their parents. In a classic example, he takes it as a sign that they should get together for good, but Lorelai (rightly) insists that he's still too immature and naive to be a good father or husband. Over the course of the series, Lorelai and Chris do this several times, showing how she has trouble letting him go. |

Bones has it a lot. Booth has had a couple of "one time only" sleepovers with his ex-girlfriend, the mother of his son. Similarly, Bones herself slept with her former boyfriend (and thesis supervisor) when he came into town. Angela and Hodgins had sex right after they broke up in season 4. Sweets and Daisy couldn’t stay away from each other during both break-up periods. The second time ended with her pregnant and them marrying just before his death. |

The pros and cons are discussed often on Sex and the City. Carrie, Samantha, and Miranda all hook up with ex-boyfriends, to varying degrees of success. In Miranda's case, she hooks up with Steve after their first break-up which leads to them rekindling their relationship, and again after their second break-up when Steve is diagnosed with testicular cancer, which leads to Miranda falling pregnant in spite of considerable odds. Samantha does this twice with her womanizing ex Richard. |

Scrubs: Dr. Cox started sleeping with his ex-wife Jordan, who is one of the few people with a strong enough personality to keep up with him. After about a season and a half of this just loathing himself and sabotaging any attempt at a new relationship, they get back together officially when Jordan becomes pregnant and remain together officially unmarried the rest of the series. Subverted in a later episode, when it's revealed that, due to a legal mix-up, they were never actually divorced (they signed the wrong papers). This ends up ruining their relationship until Cox gets on one knee at the end of the episode and asks Jordan to divorce him. She happily accepts, and they have a divorce ceremony. The witnesses just look at Cox and Jordan's kid and Carla tells him that he'll never be normal. |

Coming home drunk and depressed she took Leonard to bed, which he misinterpreted as Penny wanting to get back together. She was very embarrassed because that was not the intention (she gets very loose when she drinks) and Leonard was upset over being used for sex. | |

Daredevil (2015): Devastated by learning the truth about Matt's secret double life, Foggy Nelson goes to his ex-girlfriend Marci Stahl, who's opposing Nelson & Murdock in an ongoing case, and has a one night stand with her. He eventually appeals to the fact that she used to "have a soul" get the better of her and she helps Foggy to expose the criminal dealings Wilson Fisk is involved in at Marci's law firm. By season 2, Marci has mellowed out in her new job at Hogarth Chao & Benowitz. Foggy eventually takes a job at the firm after Nelson & Murdock, and by the start of season 3, they've moved in together. | |

One example of this trope with a happy ending is in the Futurama episode "Bendless Love". When Bender gets a job as a "scab" in a factory that is experiencing a worker's strike, he finds his not-so-evil twin Flexo working there too, and also a pretty female robot named Anglelyne who he develops a crush on. When Bender finds out that Anglelyne is Flexo's ex-wife (but still apparently has feelings for him), he decides to see just how far the feelings go, disguising himself as Flexo (easy to do, needing only a small fake beard) and taking Anglelyne out for a night on the town. Unfortunately, this does indeed make Anglelyne remember how much she loved Flexo — but even more unfortunate, this gets the real Flexo in trouble, as the Robot Mafia - who is supporting the strikers - drops an unbendable girder on Flexo to punish him for flaunting his success. Bender starts to feel sympathy for both of them, and he decides to try and bend the girder off of Flexo ("Well, I don't know anything about lifting, so we don't have many options here!") and actually succeeds, after which Anglelyne and Flexo apparently make love right there, with Bender still in the room. | |

Sandra on the Rocks: Domenico's reaction to finding out about Sandra's mo-cap session with Dark Matter games was to call it foolish and demand she cancel it. Except his ex Zoe wasn't about to let that happen. One shouting match and a crapload of Belligerent Sexual Tension later, and... cue Sexy Discretion Shot while a confused Sandra hears the Destructo-Nookie action from outside. Tatiana explains that this is Domenico and Zoe's way of settling arguments, getting into a competition where they attempt to "sex each other into submission." Zoé emerges victorious and doesn't even bother putting her clothes back on as she's too eager to leave and "wash the stench of ex-husband off her body." | |

As a result, their twins Bobby and Betsy were conceived. Gary and Valene had sex again in the Season Nine episode "Weak Moment" as Valene was upset about Ben's continued absence. |

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel: Midge and Joel on three occasions: in the season 1 finale, in the season 2 finale (with Midge cheating on Benjamin), and in the fourth episode of season 3 (where Joel could be considered to be cheating on Mei). A lot of this has to do with the fact that Midge frequently turns to Joel for comfort and emotional support, whether or not he's in a good position to give it, and Joel, out of a combination of love and continued remorse for his initial abandonment of her, is willing to provide her with that even when it's not in his best interest to do so. | |

How I Met Your Mother had an episode revolving around Ted and Robin having sex in order to avoid arguments (they had broken up but had recently become roommates because Robin lost her job). Interestingly enough, their activities did not end because of romantic complications, but because Barney was secretly in love with Robin at the time, and when Ted figured this out (due to Barney's not-so-subtle attempts to stop them from fighting and therefore having sex) he immediately called off his arrangement with Robin and allowed her to believe it was because he was afraid he'd redevelop feelings for her. | |

Chandler once got tricked into going on a blind date with Janice shortly after they broke up. Despite their initial anger they end up sleeping together. Janice thought this meant they were getting back together forcing Chandler to dump her again. After breaking up with Mike, Phoebe enlists Monica to keep an eye on her so she doesn't hook up with him again. Mike apparently asked one of his own friends to do the same for him but gave the guy the slip. When Manny catches up to him he and Monica get into an argument that allows Mike and Phoebe to sneak off to her bedroom. |

Cobra Kai: A non-sexual variant. Samantha LaRusso breaks up with Miguel Diaz at the end of season 1 after he becomes a jackass under the Cobra Kai teachings of Johnny Lawrence. In season 2, Sam hooks up with her dad's karate student, Johnny's son Robby Keene, but she still carries a torch for Miguel, and a fair number of her friends (Moon especially) notice it. Meanwhile, Miguel hooks up with new Cobra Kai student Tory Nichols, but the whole time he's with her, he holds a torch for Sam. At Moon's party in the ninth episode of season 2, Miguel catches Sam alone by the poolside, only wanting to check on her after she beat Tory in a drinking contest earlier that afternoon. Sam, who has learned that Robby withheld from her that Miguel returned Miyagi's Medal of Honornote which Hawk had stolen in episode 5 when he trashed Miyagi-Do as retaliation for losing a fight with Sam and Robby at the mall to the LaRussos' house, trips into Miguel's arms, and after several seconds of staring at each other's lips, they kiss. The kiss happens to be seen by Tory, who responds by picking a fight with Sam on the first day of school. | |
