This episode almost conviced me to give up all my hopes for this season, mostly because of the way too weirdo cast (except few likable surprises like Jasmine, Samey and Shawn) and, AGAIN, the challenge which was another random idea that had few of the "reality show effect", but not so bad as the ones seen in TDA and TDAS, actually. Luckily, the second episode made me change idea, but this is another matter.

The thing I liked the most was the comeback of that "Island chills" thanks to a location that seemed finally wild, realistic and adventurous, like the original Wawanakwa (imagine my disappointment when I discovered it was ROBOTIC -.-) : most of all I liked the (original) idea that the team had to build up their own shelters, something that fitted for the two experts of survivalism, Jaz and Shawn. Samey gained immediately a spot in my heart, she was one of the few I felt as a real person with her shyness and inferior complexes, instead Amy was immediately a crap Heather clone I hated from the beginning. Ironically, the three characters I liked for their designs, Dave, Topher and Ella, all revealed to be either boring or pesky, and Sky reminded me a mix of TDAS Zoey and TDA Beth...brr! Her character maybe the most normal but she isn't realistic and at contemporary isn't funny or interesting, she's really a blank book. A

bout the rest of the cast, GOD, how many gimmick weirdos! Beardo's jokes failed to make me laugh, he could have been used better to be a rumorist, Leonard was annoying after 5 minutes same Shugar, Rodney...oh, Rodney... better skip on him, Scarlett was absolutely uninteresting, and Max, another clown like Scott.
