User blog comment:JIMBOYKELLY/Pick Your Side! - Which is the best couple? Courtney and Duncan or Gwen and Trent?/@comment-22317052-20170106132322

Never really liked either.

Gwen and Trent were cute and I liked them in the TDI finale, but they were never too exciting. Perhaps it was because we never saw them go through any real hardships before TDA, or it was because only one of them had a personality. I'd say that I appreciate its contribution to Gwen's development in TDI, but, to be honest, her friendhips with people like Leshawna, Cody and Bridgette seemed much more influential. I do like that they're still friends though.

Courtney and Duncan are, in a way, Gwent's antithesis. They were always exciting, but a lot of times they were dysfunctional. Duncney might just be TD's most unhealthy relationship. Or second to Sky and Dave. Both Duncan and Courtney have strong personalities and are Total Drama's iconic characters. The way they broke up was a mess and I assume they're not on speaking terms.

For me, it's a tie. I'll give Duncney a point for entertainment value and good TV, and I'll give one to Gwent for being mostly mature about their relationship.
