17 Trope icons for
tvrealm challenge
2x24: Troperville
Sharp Dressed Man
"Clothes make the man" is this guy's motto. A three-piece-suit is the usual embodiment of this trope, but more imaginative outfits can qualify as well.
The men of Chaos qualify for this one quite nicely! :D
Team Mom
Almost always a female, Team Mom basically acts as the mother figure for everyone else in the group, regardless of age or family relations...Not always the leader in action or adventure, but the leader the team needs in everyday life and practical matters. Quells fights, makes sure everyone cleans behind their ears and eats their greens.
Raia from The Cape qualifies nicley for this one. Always mother-henning both Vince and her Circus companions.
Heterosexual Life Partners
Two extremely close friends or partners, both the same gender, who spend an 'excessive' amount of time together on and off the job.
Too many to choose from, but I adore the bromance of Oz and Toby on The Listener.
Three Amigos
A Power Trio of best friends, high school or middle school age, consisting of: the hero, a best friend of the same gender, a best friend of the opposite gender...
How about Luke, Rani and Clyde from The Sarah Jane Adventures? Or who could pass up Chuck, Sarah and Morgan form Chuck? I can't. :)
Heroic Sacrifice
A character does something incredibly brave and is killed, maimed, or otherwise irrevocably harmed doing it.
Poor Stephen (from Primeval) was eaten by dinosaurs for the cause... and it made me cry, goddamit!
Oh crap
The moment at which a character realizes that they are completely and totally screwed. They may not always say anything in particular, but even if they don't, their faces are usually priceless.
A couple of priceless "Oh Crap" moments from Primeval and Doctor Who.
Shirtless Scene
The most common form of fanservice for women and gay men. A hunky man (real or animated) goes shirtless or wears a revealing top that shows off his pectorals.
Hawaii-Five 0
Consummate Professional
The Consummate Professional is most often a very serious character, involved in a profession that warrants violence or is on the shadier side of the law like a soldier of fortune, professional spy, courier or professional killer. He can also belong to a more conventional profession, but be ruthlessly dedicated to it.
So I have lots of H50 screen caps. Steve is still a consummate professional!
Badass Damsel
Exactly the opposite of the Damsel in Distress. She may get whacked with a Distress Ball every now and again, but blast it all, she's got SKILLS.
These gals are kick ass! Amy from Doctor Who and Kono from H50.
