Best: Erika Strobel. Her episodes were pretty good for the most part and she was the only Island writer to pen more than one episode who didn't go on to do any of the later seasons most of the other writers that season.

Worst: Terry McGurrin. Say what you will about Ed, but at least they fired that lazy fool. Meanwhile, Terry's the editor for The Ridoncolus Race and he's somebody who gets progressively worse and worse with each passing season. I've always hated his writing on this show even he wrote for World Tour (most people from what I've seen didn't begin to hate him until All-Stars or Pahkitew Island) and his writing for this series has also heavily tainted my enjoyment for both 6teen and Stoked (where he's one of the main voice actors). He's only got one good episode under his belt so far which is So, Uh, This is My Team? (though mostly because it was a clean slate meaning there wasn't anything about these characters he could ruin yet).
