I'll copy over what I said on the talk page:

Maybe, but I have a different theory which seems to fit with every season. The more heroic/nicer contestant is the one who wins.

TDI: Owen won as he is the lovable and friends with everyone, as opposed to antisocial loner Gwen.

TDA: Beth being the awkward, nice girl definitely triumphed over ex-convict Duncan.

TDWT: We had a villain finale, however as Heather had reformed and became an antihero, she was the lesser of two evils up against Arch-Villain Alejandro.

TDROTI: Cameron the kindhearted nerdling up against arrogant jerk jock Lightning.

TDAS: Zoey who is the sweet, kind, bland, all-loving heroine is the obvious choice over "The Malevolent One".

Now I'm not sure who qualifies as nicer in TDPI. It could go either way: it could be Shawn as he selflessly saves Jasmine, and helps his team, while Sky betrays Dave. Or it could be Sky as she's a nice girl, with Shawn being a dirty coward causing him to appear mean to Jasmine.

Regardless, it still fits the trend.
