User blog comment:Asriel Meemurr (Ellafan4evr)/Which TD season is your favorite and why?/@comment-25027229-20150619032955

I don't think there's ever been a perfect season, but Island and World Tour tie for first for different reasons. While Island was realistic with it's setting and challnges while the characters were simple and not gimmicky, only a handful of them developed as characters and the humor was way too dependent on barf and fart jokes. World Tour gave us great plots and development for a few lesser characters, including my favorite, Noah. The locations were varied and the show never got stale. While I liked the love triangle as a realistic, grey area plot, the way it darkened the season and took away the humor was a bit iffy. The antagonist was also very weakly written and wasn't likeable in the slightest to me.

Second is Pahkitew Island. The characters were fun and developed, even some of the fodder characters, and those who didn't develop were used for some good jokes instead of plain, annoying fodder. While the post-merge failed miserably and took too many big moves for it's own good, the Island-esque pre-merge was the best the show had been since World Tour's pre-merge.

Fourth is All-Stars. I really enjoyed the back to basics challenges and fun interactions between the casts, as well as the jokes which made it one of the funnier seasons. The plots, while short lived and inconsistent, were fun for the most part and gave needed development to Duncan, Scott, Alejandro, Scott, and Gwen. The villain was decent and more interesting to watch than some others, but fell flat with a letdown of a downfall. Only two eliminations ticked me off, so I'd call that a record.

Tied for last are ROTI and Action, both of which carried no weight with their forgettable characters and plots that seemed to loose traction after the first five episodes. I'll have to give the point to Action for making Courtney awesome and giving Justin and Beth some development, but bringing back Owen and booting the best characters takes that point right back. ROTI failed because of a boring cast and a terrible boot order. There were some great jokes, but way to many gimmicks and running gags. Also, the theme was terrible.
