Love Thy Neighbour
From Tv Tropes
Sometimes living in close proximity to an attractive person of the opposite sex can lead to more than just borrowing a cup of sugar. All too often, protagonists will end up falling in love. This can often lead to a minor character having a more significant role, or it could just end up as trouble.
!!Examples:
[edit] Advertising
- The long-running Nescafe ads in both Australia and the UK where a man moves into the neighborhood and is offered a coffee by his pretty neighbor. The Australian version was very sweet and the couple ends up married. The UK versions were a bit steamier.
[edit] Television
- Desperate Housewives. Susan and Mike would be the main example of this one.
- Everwood. Andy and Nina.
- Monica and Chandler from Friends lived across the hall from each other.
- McLeod's Daughters. Tess and Nick. Alex and Claire. Alex and Stevie. Kate and Riley. Taylor and Patrick.
- Neighbours. Enough said.
[edit] Webcomics
- Fansadox; Confiscated Twins plays with this trope.
