Home Page - Television Tropes & Idioms
Tropes are devices and conventions that a writer can reasonably rely on as being present in the audience members’ minds and expectations. On the whole, tropes are not clichés. The word clichéd means “stereotyped and trite”. In other words, dull and uninteresting. We are not looking for dull and uninteresting entries. We are here to recognize tropes and play with them, not to make fun of them.
This trove of tropes will have me giddy for hours…as soon as I have some time to explore it further.
Via the ever groovy rodbegbie.
