Teenage Boss is an Australian TV series in which Eddie Woo lets teenagers take control of their families' entire budget for a month.

The series contains examples of the following tropes!"

  • Asian and Nerdy: Mitchell the math whiz plays this straight and presumably went on the show to meet Eddie.
  • Briefcase Full of Money: The entire premise of the show is built around this trope.
  • Brutal Honesty: Elinya was notorious for this.
  • Insane Troll Logic: When Ingrid purchased a blender:
    Ingrid: The blender's broken, so I found a new blender for $15. But see, because you saved $140-
    Elinya: Yeah, and now it's not that much, since you can't keep out of there!
    Ingrid: That's the only thing I bought, for me.
    Elinya: It's also the 3rd day, if you do that every 3rd day, pay $15, you know how much over budget we're gonna be? You're not using this, you're not having your smoothies just for payment.
    Ingrid: Oh, harsh!
  • Running Gag: The teens will always deal with an unexpected expense.
  • Sweet Tooth: Several of the teens have one. Hayley in particular bought a bunch of sugary treats, much to her Mom’s dismay.
