stereotypes-Misfits

There is a lot of stereotyping in Misfits. The whole series is about young teenagers who are doing community service. Whilst they are doing community service they manage to kill 2 of their probation workers. Misfits is very stereotypical because it shows that young people are doing bad and are rebels. Near enough every teenager that you see in this series are either smoking, drinking alcohol or doing something wrong in the eyes of the law. Each character has a stereotype aimed at them. Nathan is a cocky person who always causes mischief, the stereotype in this is mainly around the fact that young people are always doing something bad and that they are back chatting too. Curtis is the one who got put into community service for taking drugs, this is one stereotype. But he is also from a different ethnicity, this could also be seen as a stereotype. Simon is the quite one out of everyone but he is also strange, i think they added his character to Misfits because he is always called a 'freak'. Because he is strange people automatically think he is a freak, this is a main stereotype too. We then have Kelly who is very gobby and loud mouthed. she also wheres tracksuit bottoms and gels all of her hair back, the stereotypical name for her is a 'chav'. And finally we have Alisha, she is the pretty girl who can flutter her eyelides and get whatever she wants. From the way that she dresses and acts she is portaid as a 'slag'. Thoughout the whole series the characters live up to their own single stereotypes. See if you can put the name and the title i explained of them to the picture above?
