Happy Endings: Is Dave and Alex getting back together in season 3 a good idea or a bad idea? (My thoughts on the subject)

Based on a lot of the spoilers that have been released so far for Happy Ending's third season, it sounds like Dave and Alex are indeed going to be getting together and not only that, planning to get a place together at the beginning of the season. Until I'm proven wrong, for the most part I think it's a really bad idea for Dave and Alex to get back together. After all, the show began with Alex leaving Dave at the alter and all of their friends having to figure out how to handle being friends with them after their breakup. If they get together, I feel like that kind of ruins a part of the show's premise.

One thing that makes me feel a little bit better is that based on the spoilers from E! Online’s Kristin Dos Santos that were released today, it sounds like their friends also think it's a bad idea. (Happy Endings: More scoop on Dave and Alex's relationship in season 3) Plus, in one episode they had a cutaway of what they thought were some Dave's worst ideas and one of the things they showed was Dave proposing to Alex. Personally, I thought that whole cutaway of Dave's bad ideas was beyond hilarious. However, in the season two Valentine's Day episode (Episode 2x13 "The St. Valentine's Day Maxssacre), Brad called Dave, Ross, and he called Alex, Rachel, when he was referring to Jane and all of his friends as characters from Friends while he was high on anesthesia from the dentist. I loved that moment, because I feel like it was a clever way of the writers poking fun at the people who have accused Happy Endings of being a Friends rip-off. I hope to god that wasn't the writers way of hinting to the viewers that they're planning to turn Dave and Alex's relationship into Happy Ending's equivalent of Ross and Rachel's on and off again romance on Friends.

Last season they had a fair amount of moments on the show where the writers hinted at the idea of Dave and Penny getting together, and that idea sounds very interesting to me. After all, in the season two Valentine's Day episode Penny mentioned that she's known that it's been one of Dave's dreams to have a threesome with two girls ever since he was in middle school. That doesn't sound like something that a person would tell a person that they aren't fairly close to each other. I've always loved Dave and Penny's scenes together. I think Zachary Knighton and Casey Wilson have great chemistry, and I think they play off each other very well. In short, if the writers do insist on having Dave and Alex get back together in season three, I really hope that they breakup again at some point and that the writers at least really explore the idea of a Dave and Penny romance for a little while.
