Bored teenage girls

From TeeVeePedia, the Internet TV Encyclopedia.

Bored teenage girls are considered one of television's most vital demographic groups. This particular demographic group combines 3 vital factors of interest to television show producers: a great deal of free time, rabid fangirl interest, and unholy skill at dialing cell phones at high speed. This combination makes bored teenage girls vital in the broadcast of American Idol and other reality television programs. The whining and complaining skills of this group makes their parents more likely to give their disposable income to a show's sponsors, increasing their value still further.

Occasionally, shows about bored teenage girls (such as My Super Sweet 16 and around 79% of the programming on the Disney Channel) become hits. The reason for this is still under investigation.

Bored teenage girls may also belong to other subgroups such as the Whedonites. Thanks to the increased popularity of cosplay, some may even dress up as Japanese schoolgirls, although without the powers of a typical Sailor Moon character.
