well, the real world does try and fit certain people into certain roles, so perhaps we should try and figure out who would best fit those roles from the people that post on the board. or maybe just warp those roles to best fit us.
1) the gay roommate- a staple of the real world, there hasn't been a single season go by that a gay housemember wasn't present.
2) the slutty roommate- also a staple of the series, there has to be a person that either tries to sleep with every other member of the house or sleep with everyone that doesn't live in the house.
3) the jock- mtv always tries to get a musclehead in so they can get the WWF/football viewing public to enjoy the show. they enjoyed this stereotype so much they gave them their own show, Tough Enough, where the rooommates vie to get the covetted chance to become WWF wrestlers themselves.
4) the urbanite- whether it's the girl out of the ghetto with an attitude or the ballin' guy bouncing up out of the city, droppin' rhymes and wearing Sean John, the urban housemember is a classic.
5) the wildcard/ instigator- Puck is the archetype for this character (as sad as it is that we can say that people appearing on the show are characters and not real people) but others have been just drunken fools or weirdoes that like to slap people as they drive away and act all scary.
6) the innocent- this is the person that the camera just loves to watch. it's even better if they have a southern accent, a nice figure and a vagina, since women are always much more innocent than men. ;-)
7) the "nice" one- this guy isn't innocent or anything, he's just a good-natured, nice, regular, innoffensive, teen viewer loved house member.
those are the archetypes that i can think of right now. now it's time to go to TLAVideo and rent some movies. |
