Of course, character development isn’t just about change, but characters changing, thinking, growing is an important part of the process.

Payson, Kaylie, and Emily were pretty consistent across each season, whereas Lauren and Kelly changed the most. You might argue that Payson, Kaylie, and Emily showed just as much character development as Lauren and Kelly, but I just don’t see it as much as I do in those two. It’s interesting that the two girls who I think showed the most character development are the ones that started out as the most conniving. She, like Lauren, also pushes past her insecurities and makes an effort to change, and in so doing becomes one of the better characters on the show. However, in Season 2, where we see more of her, we find out that part of her nature is from her overbearing mother and the absence of her father, which makes us see her as more sympathetic. The viewer is automatically inclined to dislike her. Kelly, like Lauren, was a trash-talking and cut-throat and a generally mean and not very nice girl. In my opinion, Lauren showed the most growth, and therefore the most character development, out of all the four girls. This is further witnessed in Season 3, where Lauren became my favorite character because she actually took responsibility for her actions, confessed them, and asked for forgiveness. And it is when she confesses what she did to Sasha that I see that she is developing as a person, and as a character. The video that she sent to Ellen Beales with the cut footage of Sasha and Payson was a terrible thing to do, yes, but she did it out of that desperation and insecurity and not out of sheer malice. However, as the episodes progressed, I started seeing her hidden insecurity and desperation. She was manipulative, petty, and just an all-around brat.

Lauren was my least favorite character in Season 1 and most of Season 2.

Here’s two of those ‘some’ that really stood out to me: 1. However, it is those ‘some’ with which I am concerned. Sure, not every character was developed as well as some-Payson, for one, and to some extent Kaylie-but there was at least a little bit of development involved in everyone. If you say that there was absolutely no character development, that the characters were stale and flat, I will call you a liar. Let’s dive right into this, shall we? What MIOBI Did Right:Ī.) Character Development. Today I will be discussing what I think it did right. Yesterday I discussed what I believed Make It or Break It got wrong. Also, please remember that this post was written in 2012, so it refers to things current to that time. As a result, I’ve gone through and cleaned up the layout, getting rid of broken links and making things look nicer.
