Gwen and Owen

This article focuses on the interactions between Gwen and Owen.

Overview
Gwen and Owen were put on the same team in the first season. Initially, Gwen was constantly annoyed by Owen's odd and frequently disgusting behaviour but they become close friends as the season progress and eventually, they make it to the final two after teaming up and subsequently getting rid of the biggest threat. Owen is one of the five contestants Gwen viewed as sane, despite his various personality quirks that have annoyed or disturbed other contestants, including herself at certain points. It is hinted that Owen is a little attracted to Gwen as he constantly calls her a hottie throughout the series. After Total Drama Island, the two of them remain as friends despite being on different teams during both Total Drama Action and Total Drama World Tour.
