* TheBabyOfTheBunch: Played with. Abby is treated like this (partly due to her strict parents giving her a sheltered upbringing) but she, Blake and David are all 23, with David being the youngest by a few months.

* BigBeautifulMan: Philip is heavier-set than the rest of the cast, but is no less handsome than the others.
* BiTheWay: Blake and David are both openly bisexual. [[spoiler: Emma]] is starting to realise that she might be too.
* CastFullOfGay: So far three of the main cast (Alan, Blake and David) are confirmed to be LGBT. Ashton's sister Taylor is a trans woman and has a girlfriend. Other characters seem to be exploring their identities, in particular [[spoiler: Emma and Abby, who are implied to be bisexual and asexual, respectively.]]
* DefrostingIceQueen: Alan is an "angry stick bug" and at first acts like a primadonna, but he does begin to warm up to the other castaways.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Mara can be selfish, rude and petty, but she cares deeply for her family and the other survivors and soon acts as more of a CoolBigSis.
* HappilyMarried: Julia and her husband Nicholas, although the stress of adopting a child has put pressure on their marriage. Not to mention the fact that she's now stranded on a deserted island with no way to contact him.
* HiddenDepths: Most characters initially come across as stereotypes, but are revealed to be deeper throughout the comic. This is most obviously shown when we learn why they entered the reality show for the prize money in the first place:
** Ashton is a CloudCuckooLander and seems like a stereotypical twenty-something [[TheSlacker slacker]]. In actuality, he spent most of his savings funding his younger sister's MTF transition and wants the prize money to help kickstart the music career he put on hold.
** Mara initially comes across as a vain HardDrinkingPartyGirl, but she wants the money to buy the café that she works at that's closing down, especially because she's close with the pensioners that go there.
** Julia is a social worker who comes across as a SternTeacher, micromanaging the household and the chores. She wants to adopt a child from South America with her husband because they both see so many children in bad situations through their work.
** Craig comes across as a DumbJock despite being a police officer. It's later revealed that not only was he injured in the line of duty, but he needs the prize money to pay off his ailing mother's debts.
** Philip acts like a ClassClown, but has remarkable emotional sensitivity and observational skills, being able to calm Rachel down from a panic attack and noticing her methods of self-comfort.
* {{Robinsonade}}: Starts off like this, with the cast struggling to build shelters and forage for food. Later they come across an abandoned house with canned food, mitigating the ManVsNature element, although they still struggle with being cut off from society.
* ShipperOnDeck: Mara, especially for Philip and Rachel. It's even mentioned in her character profile.
* TeamMom: Julia ends up largely taking on this role thanks to her organized nature and experience as a social worker.
* TheBabyOfTheBunch: Played with. Abby is treated like this (partly due to her strict parents giving her a sheltered upbringing) but she, Blake and David are all 23, with David being the youngest by a few months.
