You can still have conflicts that are external to the relationship itself. And you can have conflicts - or at least disagreements big enough to drive drama - even while writing a functional, happy relationship. Will They Won't They is an easy source of conflict for writers but it's not, like, indispensable.

nayrt - I agree with everything you said. Unfortunately, I don't think that's how it usually plays out in practice. The reason why I'm lukewarm on shows that rely heavily on a lot of "will they won't they" tension is that if the show runs long enough, the couple usually ends up together and the quality kind of plummets. IMO, it does that not because that tension is indispensable, but because it's more challenging to switch gears and explore other conflicts when the series has relied SO heavily on the tension... and either writers fail to pull it off, or it's too much work and you end up with a series that starts to sag.
