User blog comment:VeryUnknownFan/The Seasonal Rot of Total Drama Action (Part 2)/@comment-4742462-20141124045727/@comment-1037137-20141124183120

There are good filler episodes when they're kept well within their limits and are still fun and focused in their own right, shows like Avatar have proven they can be done right. But this season unquestionably has far too much filler. So little of what happens on screen really matters much and everything it so poorly paced and so lacking in energy that it inevitably comes off as filler. I know they had problems making this first sequel, and it wasn't necessarily going to be as good as TDI even if it had been a decent season, but this is called Total Drama Action. Why is there so much padding in a season parodying movie genres?
