Is "Brothers & Sisters" Being Sloppy?

I just can't get used to the idea of Justin and Rebecca as lovers on "Brothers & Sisters." I wrote about how the gay ceremony went off on Sunday night without much ado, but I didn't want to spoil the big surprise kiss at the end, between the two characters who, until recently, believed they were half-siblings. Now, after seeing that kiss, I wonder if you feel as negatively about it as I do.

This show is about family, obviously, but about the feeling of family as much as the genetic realities. You know, family of choice and all that. In the finale, when Nora finds out that Rebecca isn't technically related to the Walkers, she says what has been the "Brothers & Sisters" point of view all along: "There's more to family than DNA." So it seems especially unfortunate that the writers would then conveniently ignore that notion and throw Justin and Rebecca into each other's arms. For a show that has been pretty careful and deliberate about how it portrays love, the plot twist is kind of sloppy.
