Lindsay

Lindsay, labeled The Dumb Princess, was a camper from Total Drama Island on the Screaming Gophers team. She is now a cast member on Total Drama Action on the Killer Grips.

Total Drama Island
She is considered the prettiest girl on the show, but Mother Nature made her as sharp as a frosted cupcake. She enjoys looking at herself in the mirror, trying on new outfits and hanging out with boys. She tries her best at the challenges and actually makes it far into the competition despite her naivety and sheep-like mentality, but she is lacking in physical endurance. She is afraid of bugs or anything that crawls. Although she can be a little self-absorbed, she tries to be a friend to everyone (even ugly girls, she claims, which is evident in her close friendship with Beth), even her enemies, though she's often unaware of their animosity. She is actually very athletic. She is MVP for her school's gymnastics team which makes her flexible and quick. She has a crush on Tyler, who also likes her back starting in Not So Happy Campers - Part 1. Their relationship quickly progressed to the point where they were making out by the fifth episode; much more quickly than any other relationship on the show. They hid their relationship from Heather and Courtney, both whom saw the relationship as a threat to their respective teams, though Heather was the only one who took action and actually injured Tyler multiple times for being near her alliance mate.

Lindsay is also a member of Heather's alliance and considers her a BFFFL (Best Female Friend For Life), though Heather never felt the same way. She is somewhat scared of Heather, but shows some independence from her when she helped lock her in the fridge in If You Can't Take the Heat (she even admitted in the Confessional stall that she would like to kick her off the island that episode). Heather threatened that she would cut off Lindsay's hair while she was sleeping if she betrayed her again (which backfires much later on when this fate befalls Heather on behalf of Lindsay in I Triple Dog Dare You!, resulting in Heather getting kicked out of the competition). This is because Heather betrayed Lindsay earlier in That's Off The Chain! when she convinced her to finish the race last and didn't share invincibility with her, resulting in automatic elimination from the contest for Lindsay. Finally realizing what a conniving, manipulative person Heather was, Lindsay snapped. She flicked off Heather and insulted her with a stream of obscenities (or PG-level insults, depending on what version of the show you watch). At the Dock of Shame, she befriends LeShawna, Owen, and Gwen, saying she will miss Owen the most.

Despite the disappointing way she was eliminated, she grew to love Playa Des Losers and even said if she knew of the place beforehand, she would have tried to get eliminated in the first episode. She was also able to reunite with Tyler, though she suddenly forgot which camper Tyler was. She believed Gwen should have won the contest and was on her side in The Very Last Episode, Really!, but sold out and switched sides when Owen said he would use his money to throw a party for everyone on a yacht.

In Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island!, she teams up with Beth and Ezekiel to find the case containing one million dollars. She has not forgotten what Heather has done to her in the past, rejecting her when she offers to be on her team, and even getting her name wrong (the irony being that Heather is one of the few campers whom Lindsay always gets the name right). Because of her oblivious nature, she almost passes by the case without noticing at least twice. However, she (as well as Beth and Heather) qualified to compete in Total Drama Action. Unlike most, she seems to be excited about the prospect and aspires to win the money so she can buy France and become its queen.

Total Drama Action
Lindsay returns for Total Drama Action with Beth as her new BFFFL (Best Female Friend for Life), and shares a bunk bed with her. She appears to be smarter, as a number of girls actually think she has some good ideas and she has learned from her past mistakes to avoid Heather. However, she is still a little clueless on some degrees as in Alien Resur-eggtion, she says "two words... Geoff and Bridgette" even though she is holding up three fingers (though she did say three words). She also told Trent to pick Tyler for a team member (forgetting that he wasn't in the game anymore). In Riot On Set, Lindsay is chosen to join the Killer Grips, since Trent is jealous of his girlfriend, Gwen, for choosing Duncan on the opposing team. Lindsay is overjoyed and says that without Heather, she can be a better addition to the team as she has a lot of hidden potential (although her suggestion is for Tyler to help the team, despite his not being there).

During Beach Blanket Bogus, Lindsay and Beth's friendship begins to strain as both girls compete for Justin's affection. At breakfast, Lindsay offers Justin bacon, followed by Beth's offering of Facon (a tofu substitute for bacon). When Beth says Facon is good for Justin's body, Lindsay tries to one-up her by saying bacon is good for his hair. During the surfing challenge, Lindsay says cheers for Justin and Beth follows suit, causing Lindsay to call Beth a copycat. Beth then calls Lindsay "tanorexic", but quickly apologizes and offers a friendship bracelet.

Audition tape
In her audition tape, Lindsay mentions all her good traits, says she has a bikini for every season (even those not on the calendar), gets along with everyone (even ugly girls), and is self-considered "bi-languagal" (meaning to say bilingual). She says she speaks fluent English and American, being unaware that the languages are the same.

Camp TV
Like many of the campers, Lindsay was featured in the prototype series of Total Drama Island. She also was one of the main characters of the show (as a number of campers seemed to just be supporting characters). Like the current show, Lindsay was portrayed as being a dumb rich girl, as in the promo she is called The Spoiled Brat. Lindsay still has a relationship with Tyler, one that seems to be similar to Geoff and Bridgette's in Total Drama Action (as they are seen making out in a number of pictures). Lindsay and Tyler are also the only relationship portrayed in Camp TV that remained the same in Total Drama Island. Lindsay also seemed to be really close to LeShawna (as they are seen in a number of scenes together even putting on nail paint). Lindsay also had a much different voice than her current one. While she has a young and high pitched voice today, in Camp TV she had an older sounding voice similar to a movie star. She also recites a line in the Camp TV promo that she would later say in TDI's second episode: "I thought this was going to be a talent contest!" just before diving off a cliff in both instances.

Lindsay's design today does not greatly differ from her current design. Outside of the obvious change of art style, Camp TV's Lindsay's bandanna has white polka dots, she has sandals instead of boots, her hair is slightly shorter, and her underwear is showing.

Trivia

 * Lindsay returns as a competitor on Total Drama Action.
 * Lindsay looks very similar to Kristen of 6teen.
 * Her voice actress, Stephanie Anne Mills, voices Kirsten of the same show (who looks very similar to Kristen).
 * Along with Katie (who has the same voice actress as Lindsay), Sadie, and Courtney, the three voice actresses compose the entire Khaki Clones trio of 6teen.
 * She, along with LeShawna, Heather, and DJ, did not officially have a Campfire ceremony.
 * There is only one episode Lindsay does not appear in, or is mentioned in, and that one is Wawanakwa Gone Wild!
 * Despite being clearly dumb, Lindsay does seem to be perfectly capable of building a bicycle (something that both Heather and LeShawna were clueless about doing, though Heather may have just been lazy or didn't want to get dirty).
 * Though her eyebrows were a dead giveaway from the beginning, the TDI special confirms that Lindsay is not a natural blond.
 * She and Owen are the only campers to curse at another camper.
 * She has suffered a near-death experience:
 * Sinking into quicksand along with Trent in Up The Creek.
 * In Total Drama Action, she and Beth seem to have taken Katie and Sadie's role as BFFFLs, as during the trailer for it, they are seen gleefully bouncing up and down.
 * She has a problem with remembering names, as evident throughout the series. Even if the person was a close friend of Lindsay, more often than not she would get their name wrong, sometimes more than once.
 * Chris McLean: At first she could not remember his name at all and later called him Kyle. She then called him Chip in No Pain, No Game. Gwen: Called her Greta in That's Off The Chain!, but has called her by her proper name in the past (Not Quite Famous), as well as after this episode (Haut Camp-ture). Trent: Called him Todd in Who Can You Trust?, despite getting his name right in at least one episode prior to this one (namely Up The Creek). She confuses his name with Tyler's in Beach Blanket Bogus. Heather: Called her Hannah in Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island!, but this may have been on purpose. Beth: Called her Belle in Paintball Deer Hunter. LeShawna: Lindsay had two names for her; the more commonly-used Lequesha, as well as LaFonda in Not So Happy Campers - Part 2 and Haut Camp-ture. Eva: Lindsay may have simply mispronounced her name as "Ava", as that is a commonly-accepted pronunciation of the name; just not in this particular Eva's case. She called her this in No Pain, No Game. She has correctly pronounced Eva's name before, particularly in The Big Sleep. Duncan: Called him Doug in X-Treme Torture. Tyler: Called him Taylor at the end of Phobia Factor, but quickly corrected herself. She confused Trent for Tyler in Beach Blanket Bogus. Owen: Called him Omar in Beach Blanket Bogus, despite always getting his name right in the previous season.
