They aren't goners but from what I've seen no one in Total Drama actually "Dies", if they did Scott and Alejandro would have been goners before TDAS. It's one thing to not have all of the eliminated contestants not appear again (which is stupid in it's own right, probably just a way to cut on both animation and voice acting in the PI and TDAS finales) but it was pretty dang insulting that it was impled that almost the whole cast died brutally and we're suppposed to care about that dumb zoke lovestory.

Bad taste pretty much describes it in a nutshell, and yeah they better be pretty dang embarresed. The way it played out it's like they were just trying to troll the fanbase because it's weird to think that they actually didn't expect backlash
