History Characters / SchittsCreek

* {{Hunk}}: Alexis notices just how hunky Ted has become after he returns from their honeymoon, which he took solo after she dumped him, having worked out the entire time.

* BadassInANiceSuit: Downplayed, but he's a once-successful business owner who wears a very nice suit.

* MarryForLove: Moira may have absolutely relished Johnny's money, but she makes it clear on numerous occasions that she married for love and will always love Johnny, no matter what.

* PunnyName: "Roland Schitt" sounds a bit like "roll in shit". His ancestor's name, Horace Schitt, is even punnier.

* ShesGotLegs: Catherine O'Hara is in amazing shape for ''any'' age, and it's safe to say that none of the other town council members were prepared for Moira to turn up for her first day in office wearing an above-the-knee skirt and lace tights. Roland isn't even the only one staring; he's just the only one not trying to be somewhat discreet about it.

* ShesGotLegs: Alexis has long, beautiful legs that she shows off via her short skirts, short shorts, and mini dresses.

* ShopKeeper: Along with Patrick, owns the only store in town, Rose Apothecary.

* ShopKeeper: Along with David, owns the only shop in town, Rose Apothecary.

* ValleyGirl: Her voice especially, and she often slips into this, but the show makes it clear that she has layers beyond that.

* HollywoodNerd: He's objectively a gorgeous human being, but he is played quite nerdy in the first season. Mutt even tells Alexis that back in high school he used to shove Ted into the lockers all the time because Ted always said hi to him.

* WhoWearsShortShorts: Alexis likes to show off her legs, including in short shorts. She wears a pair when Mutt gives her a bike and she cuts off a pair of scrubs to make them short shorts.

* SkirtOverSlacks: Often wears man skirts over pants, usually in black.

* OneHeadTaller: At 5'11", David is much taller than Stevie, who is 5'5". He's also taller than his boyfriend Patrick, who is 5'8" but that isn't quite as significant.

* DramaQueen: Moira. Rather more literally than usual, considering she used to be on a {{soap opera}}.

--->'''David''': I am ''remorseful''...

--->'''David''': My special day...
--->'''Patrick''': ''Our'' special day.

* PassingNotesInClass: Takes the blame for a note passed by another girl her first day back at high-school, causing herself embarrassment but winning some friends.

* TheSocialExpert: While Alexis is very BookDumb, her socialite background has made her a master of social situations. To capitalize, she starts an event planning company eventually pursues becoming a publicist.

-> '''Portrayed by:''' Sarah Levy

* PsychopathicManchild: He usually annoying and trying to punish the Roses, but he seems to be immature and childish, especially shown when he starts working at the Rosebud.

* ManChild: Roland also frequently falls into PsychopathicManchild when he's annoying or trying to punish the Roses, but generally he seems to be immature and childish, especially shown when he starts working at the Rosebud.
