Line 265:
* Pinky (played by [[Jennette McCurdy]]), on ''[[True Jackson, VP|True Jackson VP]]''.
* May Phelps (played by Laura Aikman) on ''[[Casualty]]'', who also has elements of the [[Defrosting Ice Queen]] trope too.
* Banning Miller in the ''[[Firefly (TV series)|Firefly]]'' episode "Shindig" definitely qualifies, complete with posse. She is very satisfyingly put in her place by a distinguished old man in true [[Gentleman Snarker]] fashion after she sets her sights upon Kaylee in her store-bought dress.
* Rhonda from ''[[Sister, Sister]]'' (played by Bianca Lawson) was 'prom queen three years running' and consistently Alpha Bitchy until the 4th season episode 'You are so Beautiful', where the character is played by male actor Larry Wrentz to imply (to a ridiculous degree) that Rhonda had lost her looks over the summer (along with her bad attitude). The character is never heard from again a la [[Chuck Cunningham Syndrome]].
* The BBC TV series ''[[New Tricks]]'' has an episode where Detective Superintendent Sandra Pulman was afraid to go to her High School re-union, eventually revealing that it was because she was the school Alpha Bitch. A colleague persuaded her to go, assuring her that people forget these things over the years. However, when she arrived, someone had drawn a devil's horns & beard in red lipstick on her photo in the lobby and she left in a hurry!
