This is an index of tropes that are often indicative of plain bad writing.
When done unintentionally, these tropes are usually bad signs. When done intentionally, they're often signs of [[Parody Tropes|parody]], comedy, or just the writer being ironic or [[True Art Is Incomprehensible|stylized]]. Hopefully...
See also:
* [[Discredited Trope]] - A trope which is considered a [[Cliche]].
* [[Pet Peeve Trope]] - A trope that is disliked by certain audiences.
* [[Sturgeon's Tropes]] - When the trope is used, there's about 90% chance that it will lower the reception of the work .
* [[Unexpected Reactions to This Index]]
* [[Eight Deadly Words]] - "I don't care what happens to these people."
Contrast:
* [[Necessary Weasel]] - An unrealistic trope which the audience expects to be there.
* [[Stylistic Suck]] - Making a work/art style etc. bad on purpose.
* [[Who Writes This Crap?]] - When a show's writing is criticized [[In-Universe]].
* [[They Just Didn't Care]] - When the audience feels that the creators weren't even making an effort.
* [[Intended Audience Reaction]] - An attempt to intentionally evoke a reaction from the audience.
Not to be mistaken for [[Writers Suck]], which has more to do with [[Butt Monkey|Butt Monkeys]] than bad writing.
