| 1 | A large cast of characters is [[Administrivia/PeopleSitOnChairs not a trope on its own]]. Loads and Loads of Characters may refer to one of the following tropes: |
| 2 | |
| 3 | * CastCalculus: Choosing the right cast size and splitting traits between them. |
| 4 | * CastHerd: Large cast split into groups. |
| 5 | * CastOfSnowflakes: All characters are visually distinctive, even minor ones. |
| 6 | * CrowdedCastShot: A scene or gag where the focus is on how they cram as much of the cast in it as possible. |
| 7 | * ADayInTheLimelight: An episode focused on a secondary character. |
| 8 | * EnsembleCast: The story spends a roughly equal amount of time on all or most of the characters rather than having a single protagonist. |
| 9 | * FourLinesAllWaiting: A large cast means that there are multiple simultaneous plots in a single episode/work. |
| 10 | * GirlOfTheWeek: A new LoveInterest shows up every week, and is usually [[TemporaryLoveInterest gone by the end]]. |
| 11 | * MassiveMultiplayerCrossover: A {{Crossover}} between three or more continuities you'd never think would ever meet. Ever. |
| 12 | * MonsterOfTheWeek: Facing an unrelated monstrous threat once per weekly episode. |
| 13 | * RotatingProtagonist: Each character (supporting or minor) has equal or significant screentime as with the main characters. |
| 14 | * VictimOfTheWeek: Someone gets killed or otherwise messed with every episode. |
