teen comedy
Youth-focused comedic film
A teen comedy is a comedic film or television show centered on adolescent characters and their experiences—high school drama, first loves, social hierarchies, and coming-of-age struggles.
The genre trades in familiar types: the jock, the nerd, the popular girl, the outcast.
We stayed up watching teen comedies from the nineties.
The tone ranges from raunchy to heartfelt, often both.
