OKAY, Late PLEA to anyone who can help me:

Can you think of any soap opera/telenovela cliches besides:

- sudden terminal sickness
- exploding warehouses
- web relationships?

Even scenes like kissing in the rain, proposals with rings in/on a piece of dessert, etc.

THANK YOU SO MUCH. I owe you.

1 - rich girl/poor boy otherwise known as uptown girl syndrome.
2 - "luke, i am your father" 'nuff said.
3- family feuds
4 - going overseas
5 - losing heaps of weight
6 - drug addiction
7 - fighting scenes with maong jackets despite the tropical weather
8 - shoot out scene with extremely long convo about everything under the sun
9 - kris aquino
10 - sex amidst looming danger
11 - when someone's dying, he/she just HAS to be kissed on the lips, such a passionate act which literally leaves them breathless and inevitably... dead.
12 - text messages
13 - presence of a cellphone conversation
14 - 2 people fighting over 1 person, seen in all movies and sitcoms ranging from terminator 3 to winter sonata.
15 - bar scene, all telenovelas and sitcoms MUST have a bar scene.

GO media junkies! \m/

yeah actually may subtopics pa yan
9.1 - liposuction
9.2 - boyfriend/s of the month
9.3 - gay bestfriend
and as a pinoy rule of nature, there must at least be one gay person and or a really annoying conyo girlchick in a telenov.

*ROFL*

Really twisted family trees.
Love triangles.
Rags-to-riches.
Sibling rivalry.
Rich female villains with glasses of wine.
Women who wear expensive clothes, heels, and makeup even at home and even when they're asleep.

lol the comments are funny and yet true

stepmother + stepsister are usually the villain (cinderella-ish plot)

girl adopted by a poor family -->poor girl vs. rich girl who isn't really the daughter of a rich family...in fact the poor girl is the real daughter...something like that

pwede din, rich girl becomes poor because her parent died and somebody else is taking over the family business (princess sarah-ish plot)

[fudg3]

yeah another thing...

the villain -> usually rich ->wealth came from doing illegal stuff
