8	!!''Betty en NY'' provides examples of:
9
10	* AdaptationNameChange: Betty's name is given as Beatriz "Betty" Aurora Rincón Lozano. This is based on the original Colombian version, where Betty's name is Beatriz "Betty" Aurora Pinzón Solano.
11	* BilingualDialogue: Most of the show is in Spanish but it also has a large amount of subtitled English due to it taking place in New York.
12	* ButNotTooForeign: ''Betty en NY'' is an American production that is in Spanish. This explains why the characters live in NYC.
13	* GreenEyedMonster: A lot of it going around, but mainly is Marcela being jealous and distrusting of Armando and whatever women he's with (with good reason seeing his long list of lovers and flings)
14	* {{Jerkass}}: A lot of the characters like Daniel, Ricardo, Patricia, Fabio, Romina, Jenny Wendy, Efrain, Hugo and Marcela.
15	* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk; Daniel and Ricardo are some of the worst and take advantage of the people close to them even when they know it's wrong
16	* LadykillerInLove:
17	** Armando is a well known casanova, that flirted left and right with the models and other beautiful women he encountered, which he stopped after getting engaged to Marcela. However, the trope won't enter in full effect until he falls in love with Betty.
18	** PlayedWith in the case of Ricardo, who was an even bigger casanova than Armando (and cared even less about feelings) and for a time he thought himself to be in love with [[spoiler: Marcela]], but the relationship went nowhere and he ended up bitter about it falling back into his old habits.
19	* LoveTriangle: As per any good old telenovela there are plenty to be found here but the main one is Armando - Betty -Marcela
20	* RaceLift: Betty is Mexican-American, but the telenovela is mostly based on the original Colombian version of the franchise (not its Mexican counterpart ''La Fea Más Bella'').
21	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Armando's dad, Roberto, is the one person everyone agrees to listen and work with.
22	* ToxicFriendInfluence:
23	** Both Patricia and Ricardo are rather toxic influences on their friends Marcela and Armando, but out of the two Patricia is the least dangerous.
24	** Sometimes the Squad can be rather abrasive and pushy with one another and instead of helping they rather enable some behavior that is questionable.
