Television has raised a generation or two on "sound bites", and you only get to see the "exciting stuff" not the entire backstory. Marriage isn't all about sound bites, it's the day to day boring stuff, doing laundry, doing the dishes, etc. It's a generation or two of people, perhaps fed by the flashiness of music videos, that want everything to be exciting...
These don't back up my opinion, but they might give you some help
