Common Stereo types in teen dramas

This is one of the most widely used stereo typical character in teen dramas. The jock. The jock is used in tv dramas such as glee, and one tree hill, as well as in teenage films including American pie, and mean girls.

 The nerd in also a commonly used  character. They are usually the ones who are picked on and bullied, however in skins the stereo type is reverted, and JJ (pictured above) is the popular nerd who everyone likes.





The stereo type of the rebellious teenage is also a commonly used character in teen dramas, and Cook is a classic example of this. They are always very popular, slightly violent and get all the girls they want. This stereo typical character is one who will be featured in my short film.

The final stereo type used in teen dramas is the bitch. There is always a bitch who enjoys stiring things up. Above you can see a picture of the bitches in mean girls, like there are bitches in gossip girl, 902110 and glee. They are almost in every teen drama.
