5 Hyperspecific Reality TV Starter Packs

Get out the throwing wine: ELLE.com is celebrating the best (and worst) of reality TV this week.

Watch any reality TV show and you'll notice each cast member has a schtick. A specific trope or "character" she plays that ensures her space on the show (and the best seat on the reunion show couch) in the future. You have the mogul who is clearly on the show to promote a business…and definitely not make friends. The veteran who has been on the show for entirely too long, but refuses to let go. The list could go on, but we've narrowed it down to the top five you'll see everywhere.

The One Who Always Cries:

It's turtle time and time to make it nice. Heres hoping a fight doesn't break out after one or twelve tequilas.

The Veteran:

This ain't her first time at the rodeo and she's got the new teeth to prove it.

The Newbie:

Is she in over her head? Most likely, but she'll get the hang of things…maybe?

The Mogul:

Here to cash checks not care about your feelings.
