User blog comment:CF12/Owen - Why do some of you guys hate him?/@comment-1284355-20090816032342

I agree completely with Freehugs. I really can't believe that he won the first season. What, did he only win one challenge for his team? In fact, he only had two 'good' performances - Brunch of Distugstingness and Dodgebrawl - everything else was average or bad. He's comic relief, and the same relief in every episode - over-exited, eats a lot, farts a lot, nice to everyone. Is there anything else to build upon his character? No. It seems as if his humour is based for the younger audiences of the show. I don't even find his lines entertaining, whether he's eating or ogling over Justin.

The finale - how did he even make it that far - was completely disappointing. The underdog got crushed by a strategy that once again showed no character development, only his fondness for food drove him on.

Let's rate his performances - cliff jump? Took him a while, not really impressive either way. Brunch? Same role as always - eating makes him win. Can we get some more development? No! Basic Straining? Average performance. Finale? Same role as always - eating makes him win. Dodgebrawl - Just went crazy and hit them. How he didn't get out easily surprised me, as he's a bigger target than the rest of the campers combined. Paintball? Recurring theme with him failing epically. Triathlon? Same role as always - eating makes him win. Dares? Some eating challenges, but mostly was just enthusiastic.

He has no development over TDI or TDA, and his only recurring jokes is that he ogles over Justin, eats a lot, farts a lot and says "Awesome". That's why I hate him.
