Total Drama Island Do-Over


MY FAVORITES BASED ON SEASON
TDI=

FIRST GENERATION RANKINGS
Ezekiel, labeled The 'Homeschool'  24th - Ezekiel started off normal... as we all know. He sparked interest in the fandom after his participation in Island. For some reason, which I have yet to understand, he became wildly popular. My favorite fanfiction writer, Kobold Necromancer, simply ADORES Ezekiel. I want to see what he sees, but I don't. But even Kobold will agree... Ezekiel is completely messed up now. If I didn't like him then, imagine how much I dislike him now. He is a joke. After turning into a feral monster, we have witnissed the decimation of a character. Why does he place at the very bottom of my list, though? Well, many fans had sent in letters requesting Zeke getting more screentime. These letters were sent some time between Island and Action. The writer must have gotten them... because boy, does he get his fair share of screentime. He represents the distrust I have in these writers.

Owen, labeled The 'Funnest Guy Around'  23rd - Owen is clearly the writer's favorite character of all time. The big man even sports the symbol of the show's origin. He's a walking, talking, farting, advertisment for Canada. Blaineley even blatantly calls him the "fan's favorite" in Niagara Brawls. What angers me about Owen is... He's. Not. Funny. The producers of this show THINK they know what we all want. Well, I certainly don't want Owen. He spent three seasons farting on screen, and that pretty much sums this tub-o-lard up in a nutshell. Farting. I am baffeled as to how many fart jokes these writers can muster up. It's uncountable. Owen has always made me question the intended audience of this show. Maybe the producers think we're kids? I mean, THREE seasons of farts!? He was used solely for humor, the problem was, his humor stayed EXACTLY the same EVERY EPISODE. Oh yeah, screen hog too.

Courtney, labeled The 'Type A'  22nd - Gosh. I really want to like her. I really do. The main issue is... I can't. Every time I find something admirable about her.. BAM. That one likable quality has been wiped from existance the very next episode. I found her crush on Duncan cute in Island, it was played for irritable drama throughout TDA. I started liking her sweetness in TDWT, until the love triangle story arc obliterated that as well. And of course... TDAS managed to concoct every Courtney Fan's worst nightmare. A pure, whiny, vicious, and outright pathetic Courtney. She spent all season redeeming herself. She broke up with Duncan, mended her friendship with Gwen, and even found new love... then Sundae Muddy Sundae happened. She suddenly turned sour again, all thanks to the poor writing of.. well, the writers. I despise her because I feel like I don't even know who her character is anymore. It's constantly changing! The continuity of her character is so bad, that she's landed a spot right here on my list.

Trent, labeled The 'Mysterious Musician'  21st - Trent was the original Mary Sue. I looked back as his and Gwen's relationship after people starting comparing Mike and Zoey to them. Yuck. I saw that it was true. Trent is bland. He has no character to him whatsoever. He litteraly was there for Gwen, and Gwen only. I was dissapointed with what I saw. It hurts to see a character you once adored being revealed for what he really is, drama fodder. Proof that he's dependant on Gwen is Action. As soon as she left his team, Trent started romanticising Gwen. He became obsessed. Having this much dependancy on a girl is unhealthy, and I'm glad Gwen and Trent broke up. That was a good message the producer's sent. Sadly, they never repeated that message with Mike and Zoey, who need to break up, like, now. Anyway, Trent will always be the original Zoey to me now. He's dependant, crazy, and likable for no other reason but the character he leeched off of and for being "relatable".

Gwen, labeled The 'Loner Goth'  20th - Same as Courtney, I wanted to like Gwen, I really do. This show has made that too tough for me to do. I can't pinpoint what it is I like about Gwen because she's inconsistant. She has a different motive every season, and it never seems to be winning the money. It's always centered around one subject. Boys. Gwen is always having boy trouble. She squees over Trent in TDI, breaks up in TDA, gets with Duncan in TDWT, breaks up with Duncan in TDAS. Who's next on her list? Really... they could go into depth about her sad family life. Her single mother, her brother, her lifestyle and her inspiration to be goth, but NOPE. Boys. All about boys. Well.. except for Courtney. Gwen and Courtney get a LIIITTTTLLLEEE too close in TDAS. ... And then just split apart in miliseconds like nothing ever happened. She's inconsistant, boy crazy, and a bit too friendly cheeryton to be related to the cool girl she was on Island. She's changed, and not for the better.

Sadie, labeled The 'Nice Girl'  19th - Sadie and Katie were pure elimination fodder. They could have had a deep storyline. Sadie could have easily developed without Katie around. She could have become independant. Heck, I wouldn't have complained if she had won, had they played her right. But instead, she doesn't speak a word for every episode Katie is gone. She only talks THE episode she is eliminated. I was majorly dissapointed. They built these two up just to leave an incomplete project lying at our feet. For shame.

Katie, labeled The 'Nice Girl's Friend'  18th - Same as Sadie, Katie was thrown away for useless reasons. Yes, useless. It would have been useful if they had actually done something with these two. But alas, they didn't. I like Katie more because she did a sweet job participating in Dodgebrawl. She was a decent team player in that episode. I'm confused as to why they chose Sadie over Katie when at elimination. I mean, Sadie was clearly useless, while Katie stood her ground in previous challenges. Overall, these two got my hopes up for nothing.

Duncan, labeled The 'Delinquent'  17th - I still kinda DESPISE this jerk. He was outright cool in TDI, a jerkface in TDA, and a diabolical ogre in TDWT. I can't get over how ticked off he made me in all of his time on the show. He ruined Courtney, and Gwen's characters. He made them awful and made himself look worse. He tore apart the fanbase and nearly slaughtered all good writing. Since Duncan was arrested, I finally feel that he's received his karma. He's paid his bill. Now that I know he's been properly punished, I can look back on everything he's done and appreciate what he does for this show. He adds drama, excitement, even if the thrill is negative, it's thrill all the same. He's clever and funny too, even if at the ire of others. I can honestly say that I respect this character more than I do enjoy him. However, he's received special treatment every single season. He's a writers pet, and he's far overused. The only season he hasn't received good treatment is in TDAS. And let's face it... NOBODY got good treatment in TDAS.

Cody, labeled  The 'Geek'  16th - I enjoyed Cody a lot. He was funny when he flirted with Gwen, which pretty much sums him up with me. I LOVE Sierra, I just didn't like Cody more than her. I felt that he coattailed her all the way to the finish line. I also feel that he kinda contradicted himself a lot as a "nice guy". I found his advances on Gwen to be hypocritical since he didn't like Sierra's advances. I guess it was a joke since he stalked Gwen in a way... just to get stalked in season 3. I'm ok with him mainly because he did manage to keep me laughing all throughout TDWT. All of his tidbit references in TDAS were hysterical as well. I enjoy every Sierra comment she makes about Cody, and I enjoy every Cody comment made about Sierra. It's a toxic relationship in the TD universe, but here, it's a symbiotic relationship... in the funny department. It's horrid in reality. That's why it's funny. Let's keep laughing at the poor kid. His pain is our jest. My main reason for putting him this low... is his fans. As soon as a rabid Cody fan sees that Cody ISN'T number one on your list, you'd better come equipped with the vaccine for the bite you're gonna receive. Rabid Cody fans SUCK.

Tyler, labeled  The 'Sportless Jock'  15th -The writers made a great choice in bringing back Tyler in TDWT. He was given something I never imagined him having after TDI. Development. I like Tyler because he was a beacon of light and possible hope for future development in TDI. He was a mere joke in TDI. They brought him back and REMEMBERED everything about him. They used continuity too. A whole season without this guy, you'd think these writers would forget everything. Nope. I hope they continue to turn this slapstick character into a jock, with a heart for his darling babe, Lindsay. Might I just add how spectacular this relationship is now that I know they're BOTH stupid. It's so endearingly adorable. I can't get over how perfect it is. Despite being a dimwit, Lindsay maintains a relationship for all this time. I can only hope Tyler and Lindsay are still together, and that the writers can keep bringing back characters that DON'T receive much limelight. However, he's a very one-note character without a lot of depth to him overall. I do appreciate him however. I'd put him hogher on the list, but I like everyone better. Everyone on the list BELOW Tyler bothers me. Tyler is the beginning of the characters I genuinely like.

Leshawna, labeled The 'Sister With 'Tude'  14th - Leshawna is a timeless character who has as much history as she's got back. Honey, I love Leshawna. I love reflecting on all of her quippy and loud shoutings in TDI. She was truly an All Star. I enjoyed every minute of her back on the island. The major problem and reason why she's so low on my list is her Action and World Tour performance. She wasn't at all like she was in Island when she was in Action. She lied, bad-mouthed her friends, and even rejected poor Harold. I still can't tell to this day whether they're together or not. It baffles me. My biggest complaint is why she attacked Heather in Slap Slap when they resolved their conflict in Action. It was a MAJOR continuity error, and the first of many to follow, and not just ones revolving around Leshawna. Everyone would suffer from this in the latter seasons. I disliked her performances, but I still like her as a character. It balances out to me, so she's... okay, I guess.

DJ, labeled The 'Mama's Boy'  13th - DJ was highly entertaining in Island. He was a perfect combination of funny, goofy, and friendly. He wasn't ALWAYS being a wimp back on Island. I liked that about him. Then came Action. DJ had began acting more wimpy, thus starting the Chef alliance story arc. I did enjoy the story arc because it involved Chef. Chef is amazing. I can't say Action was HORRIBLE, because DJ got closure at the end of it, finally proving he's tough when he stands up to Chef. That's what I like to see, a story arc that closes up and leaves no trace, other than remnant memories the contestants have of it. I hate when a story arc is cut off halfway or just leaves the competition in shambles and just stops. World Tour was different. This was what differentiated DJ from a lovable character, to a likable character. He was ALWAYS a wimp in that season. Every second of it. If they had shown that he had taken something from Chef, like confidence, I would have been okay. But he didn't, therefore he's only "ok".

Alejandro, labeled The 'Arch Villain'  12th - He was a decent antagonist. He actually managed to cause a lot of eliminations. I think he was the way the writers envisioned Justin would be portrayed, but ultimately failed. Then they tried again, and ..."HOLA" we have Al. After seeing how much of a failure Justin was in Action, seeing a maniuplative male villain was a marvelous sight. I only wish they would have been a teensy bit more clever with their antagonists. Last season, Courtney established herself as a Villain Sue. As great as Al was, he too was a Villain Sue. Everytime he pulled a random ability out of his butt, I wanted to pull a handful of hair out of my head. Just because your brothers are good at something... DOESN'T mean you are. Jeez. His godplaying was annoying. But overall, I enjoyed his relationship with Heather and found it cute. Cute because I never envisioned Heather being in love, and lo and behold, Al. Thanks Al. I began liking him more when I reflected on World Tour. He was exactly the kind of villain we needed. So thank you, Al.

Bridgette, labeled The 'Surfer Chick'  11th - I was dissapointed with Bridgette's performance in TDA and TDWT. I HIGHLY enjoyed the Aftermath shows, and keep Bridgette and Geoff here solely for that purpose, and their TDI participations as well. I always shipped Gidgette and find it strange that some people despise it for the reason "They kiss alot". Couples do that, people. What do you want them to do? Stare into eachother's eyes all day and ...I dunno... be more like Zoke? *vomits* Just be thankful this show is kind enough to leave us a healthy relationship. Frankly, after TDWT, TDROTI, and TDAS, I'm grateful for these two. They trust eachother, have faith in eachother, and are incredibly deserving of one another. A lot of people would put Bridgette low on their list, but she's a decent middle character to me. I know she's kind of bland, but what separates her from *coughZoeycough* is that Bridgette allows more interesting characters to have their spotlights, as opposed to hogging it all for herself. That's why I like her...... Plus she's hot. *runs*

Beth, labeled The 'Wannabe'  10th - Beth made a HUGE comeback in TDA. She started developing FAST after she got her braces off. I was enthraled by how well they began to let Beth blossom in season 2. Many people found her annoying, yet I find her endearing. My main reason for liking Beth so much is that people compare her to Zoey, saying she's just an ugly Zoey... that's not true. Beth has an intricate backstory. She wants friends, she openly TRIES, but fails because she lives on a farm and doesn't know how. She doesn't insult the boys at her school and call them "juvie rejects" and "morons". She's an actual sweet character. The kind of character that SURPRISES you when she acts sassy or mean. That's what made her big mean moment in the finale so shocking. Beth stays true to her friends and is always open and honest with them. She knows who to fear and doesn't rely on one boy. She juggles her love life AND her time in the game. She's responsible and clumsy at the same time. She never godplays, and she's beautiful in her own adorkable way. Zoey's trash. Beth is awesome. Stop comparing the two, please.

Justin, labeled The 'Male Model'  9th - Justin was a very promising antagonist after Total Drama Drama Drama Drama Island. He was cunning, deceisive, and bold. He remained under the radar for the first half of TDA. We all thought he would strike and rein supreme in the competition. Would this antagonist live up to his name?... No. He never did. Justin was the worst antagonist in TD history... okay. Second worst. Worst being Mal. But he never truly accomplished anything. But why would I like a character like this? Simple. Because he's funny. Justin managed to become a very comical character after Courtney arrived. His jokes were all funny and the physical harm brought to him was more humorous due to the fact that he's a male model. I admire how they didn't COMPLETELY ditch him after they decided he wouldn't be a bad guy. I preferred his talkative and whiny TDA self over his quiet and myseterious TDI self. This character is a horrible antagonist, but an entertaining character.

Lindsay, labeled The 'Dumb Princess'  8th - Lindsay is lovable. She is cheered for because she's so... so.... so lovable. Her idiocy is played well, and not entirely for laughs, but sometimes it creates drama too, which is good. It makes her a character, not a spur of the moment. Behind her idiotic demeanor, she held sincerity. I've always admired how they've been balanced out in this character. Lindsay also set a good message about losing. Friends are way more important than money, don't trust people who force you to be who you're not, and ... why am I trying to find a moral in her All Stars elimination? That season HAD no morals. It promoted self harm, which is why I'm glad she got the HECK out of there. Lindsay didn't need to be contaminated by that season. Without her, it lost a very important feature, morals and entertainment. I miss her, and hope she's safe and not flying into the sun. I will always admit that while her dumbess was overused at times, she NEVER stopped me from laughing. She was brought down to this one cardinal trait in All Stars where she was as dumb as a doornail. That made her fall on my list a tad.

Eva, labeled The 'Female Jock'  7th - Eva has a charm to her that no other short-lived character has. And by short lived, I mean ONE season of participation from this girl. I don't have much to say other than I lover her tantrums and find her comedic. I think it's childish, but I sometimes enjoy a good laugh from my inner child. I like seeingthinsg smashed and punched and yelled at. Eva never failed to make me laugh. I liked short-lived characters and hope that they one day bring her back.

Sierra, labeled The 'Uber Fan'  6th - She's a cartoon. Sierra is probably the most cartoony character out there. I adore how absolutely wacky she is. I have a deep appreciation for a character that can go as wild as she can. Her storyline with Cody is so funny. Just... so funny. Every comment the two make about eachother just makes me chuckle. It's a horrible relationship, but it's a cartoon, and it's funny, therefore I approve. Her insanity makes her incredibly unpredictable. I want to know who freaking raised her. This girl is out of control. Courtney was not the new Izzy in TDWT, Sierra was. I felt so bad for Cody all of those times, but Sierra has been the best thing to ever happen to his character. He would have been out in episode 3 if it wasn't for her. She's not only whacky and finnicky, but she's tough too. She beat up a pack of wild apes for Cody. But the number one reason why I love Sierra is... her voice actress. Sierra has a MARVELOUS voice actress who is SO incredibly talented. Her laughs are bone chillingly spooky, and her pronunctiation of EVERYTHING SHE SAYS is spectacular and fluent. It's the best voice acting this show has. I hope they hire voice actors like her in the future. Annick Obonsawin must have devotion, cause she sounds perfect. TDAS made her awful... but then again, who WASN'T awful in TDAS?

Geoff, labeled The 'Party Dude'  5th - I have always enjoyed Geoff. He's this high on my list because there's never been a time where I've disliked him. He's ALWAYS come through in the story arc department. In TDI, he developed his crush on Bridgette and became close with his bros, DJ and Duncan. In TDA, he made out with Bridgette and found that life outside the game suits them better. In the TDA Aftermaths, he let stardom go to his head before Bridgette pulled him back into reality. In TDWT, he was jealous that Bridgette had cheated on him, but forgave her when she was sincere. In the TDWT aftermath, Geoff was distraught when Bridgette was sent to Siberia, so he got his revenge on Blaineley. He ALWAYS has a storyline. And guess what... they ALL HAVE MORALS. They all teach good lessons about how to deal with relationships. Be HONEST, be FORGIVING, be HUMBLE. No other couple in TD has EVER gone into all of these fields. You'd never suspect such good life lessons from a party dude. Party on, Geoff.

Harold, labeled The 'Dweeb'  4th - Harold can't really be explained. He's goofy, he's enjoyable, he's relatable to nerds everywhere, he's an underdog, he's a fighter and a passionate lover nerd which is a freaky, yet hilarious combination and he's... well... GOSH! The Napoleon Dynamite refereance doesn't go unnoticed. Personally, I am a huge fan of Harold for his underdog status. He is bullied by pretty much EVERYONE on the show, and against all odds, manages to stay sane. He doesn't let what others say or do get to him, and he fights back in his own ways. He's a good example, outsmart your enemy, and defend those you care about. I LOVED when he punched Duncan in the face... that was wonderful. I hope he and Leshawna are still together. Harold DESERVES a loyal girlfriend. I love everything about this character.

Heather, labeled The 'Queen Bee'  3rd - Heather is the ultimate All Star. Nobody is a better player than she is. I feel she deserves the most amount of respect as a villain AND a player of anybody in this cast. She's HIGHLY entertaining and HIGHLY motivating. She takes down her enemies and looks good doing it. She has captured the hearts of EVERYONE during World tour and is the first villain to be redeemed and made relatable. I found her marvelously funny in TDA, especially in her bald craze with lines such as "Loser shaman!" "I'm not crazy, I'm just bald" and "Nice to have your hhhaaaiiirrrr" To see such a force go through slipping of her sanity, to ruling the third season is amazing. I love how her character has been to hell and back, and once again... still looks good. I was devastated with her TDAS elimination and feel she deserved the All Star status ONE MILLION TIMES more than Zoey and Mike. How did Heather put it in her cameo? "I have a policy of not talking to losers" No wonder Zoey, Mike and Heather never interacted after that. Ha. I love you Heather. You are truly the queen of Total Drama.

Izzy, labeled The 'Psycho Hose Beast'  2nd - Izzy is so childish, how can anyone like her?" I simply reply, "Well I must still be a child, because that girl is freaking hilarious in my opinion". I laughed at her antics in 2007, and I'm still laughing today. I don't care what others say, Izzy is amazingly funny. The writers need a character like Izzy. Personally, she is just an enjoyable and fun character to watch. Her randomness and giddy attitude was adored by me and she always had the best things to say. She is almost, never doing nothing. People say that Mike was her replacement. Nobody is her replacement, especially not Mike. You don't find a character as fun as Izzy. I was heartbroken when she was removed from World Tour, and even worse, she didn't return again. She is that perfect sprinkle of insanity that makes this show. She's there if something random and wacky needs to be said, they know who's mouth will say it. Izzy, I love you. Live on and BOOM BOOM!

Noah, labeled The 'High IQ'  1st - Yes. Who else? I mean, if anybody has ever chatted with me and we started talking about Total Drama, you'll hear me compliment how amazing Noah is. Reasons? He's a real piece of animated humor at it's finest. Noah is clever, funny, and makes jokes that I am willing to laugh at. He broke the cycle. The original cycle was that the writers find ONE thing funny. Farts. Noah didn't do that stupid stuff. He wasn't a stupid character. His wit and snarkiness captivated the fans. Plus, Cody isn't the only one with a huge female fanbase. Noah deserves his fanbases, his fame, and all of this attention. The potential in Noah is astounding. I love his dry humor and sarcasm. I could'nt get enough of him in World Tour, before Duncan returned and ruined everything. His character devolopment was absolutely marvelous in Season 3. From his friendship with Owen, to his feud with Alejandro, he was one of those characters you can't wait to hear from. He always had the best lines. Despite being short lived on the show, Noah has made every moment of his worth watching. I don't give a single **** about what the writers think...he's an All Star to me.

SECOND GENERATION RANKINGS
Mike, labeled The 'Piece Of Garbage'  13th - ... Mike is disgusting. Wanna argue with me? Read this first. http://decoller.tumblr.com/post/68961477314 Someone with an ACTUAL mental disorder wrote this. They poured their heart into this letter they wrote. You wanna whine about how adorable, cute, and funny Mike is?... keep it to yourself. Read this first. Mike is officially my LEAST favorite TD character in TD history. He's WORSE than Zoey. He's WORSE than Duncan pre-TDAS. He's WORSE than Courtney. He's... just... the worst.

Zoey, labeled The 'Piece Of Garbage's Girlfriend'  12th - She had the same storyline for two seasons straight. She claims she likes oddballs yet treats Sierra, Dakota, and Dawn like they have two heads. She's obviously just a ploy to get fans to like her through relatability when she's really just the blandest character on the show. Needless to say, their plan worked. I find it dumb how they say she's "indie" yet does nothing to indicate that. Everyone says "well she's awkward, and that's funny". No she's not. She clicks with everyone she meets. She is the least interesting character in this show. The worst part is that she's a boring screenhog. I could deal with Duncan, Heather, and Owen because they were interesting, or at least Owen was borderline funny. Zoey has NEVER been funny. She's the worst female on the show too. She attempts to kill herself to get her boyfriend's attention. She acts like a jerk to people when her boyfriend tells her too. She's such a typical example of how any misogynist views woman. She's helpess, stupid, and obediant to Mike and a hollow shell of a character to everyone else.

Sam, labeled The 'Gamer'  11th - Gaming isn't a personality. That was pretty dumb of the writers. They were trying to play to the gamers who watch the show. Once again, fan bait. His All Stars appearance was also pathetic. There is NOTHING to this guy. WHY was he in All Stars anyway?

Lightning, labeled The 'Athletic Overachiever'  10th - I don't really know why... I just like him. He's funny. He used to be REALLY ANNOYING in TDROTI, but I've learned to appreciate him after TDAS. He left an impact. He actually kept me laughing! I don't know WHY they get rid of funny characters so quickly. And anyway... I guess I can understand why they offed him so early in TDAS. He's a GREAT short-lived character. But he's a TERRIBLE FINALIST.

Staci, labeled The 'Liar'  9th - I don't care what y'all say, Staci is funny! I kind of like imagining every time she opens her mouth, she sings the trololololol song.....that's just me though.... www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Z4m4l…Though, same as B, She had so little screentime, that I can't put her above the others.

B, labeled The 'Silent Genius'  8th - Like Dawn and Noah, B was short lived. But he was interesting. Everyone had low expectations for him when they first heard of "Silent B". He surprised everyone with his inventing and creative mind. This character attribute is what made his character someone to look out for. Hopefully, if there is another season, he doesn't speak and turn out to be like Justin. Sadly, I have him this low on my list because I don't have the heart to put anyone else above him... below him. He's a good character, but not great. He was WAY to short-lived to be considered anything above this spot in my rankings.

Jo, labeled The 'Eva 2.0'  7th - Disappointingly, it was obvious that Jo could have had much character development. They could have gone into her insecurities. They could have gone into a relationship between Brick and her. They did not do anything for her. Instead, she was a wannabe Heather. A very poor, wannabe Heather. I don't hate her. She's not frustratingly terrible. She's actually a stable character that just has a lot of haters, or at the very least, those who don't appreciate her. I did enjoy her time in All Stars, even though it led to absolutely nowhere, like all of the other plot lines of that season. Thanks TDAS. You suck at everything.

Dakota, labeled The 'Fame Monger'  6th - Dakota's mutation was terrible. But hey, we got a pretty decent storyline out of it. Dakota and Sam's relationship is adorable. Seriously, Jasammy was the next sweet and heartwarming relationship/friendship/bromance. Total Drama doesn't have a lot of those anymore. Go Dakota.

TBA, labeled The 'Bubble Boy'  5th - Cameron was that one little glimmer of hope and joy in Season 5 that kept the show upbeat. He was silly and kind of weird, but everybody on this show is, so that's okay. Season 5 was just a huge array of torturing of the new cast. While Cameron was beat up too. He was the only person in the final 7 who wasn't completely hopeless. Cameron is a perfect example of excellent character development. He started off weak, and truly ended the season as a stronger person. I loved seeing the things he did. He had flaws, but they made him more interesting. I found his taste in friends to be.....eugh. Terrible. I would have loved him ten times better if he wasn't a third wheel to the worst relationship in Total Drama History....Zoey and Mike. Other than those two failures, Cameron is awesome, he triumphed over both of them, and he beat Lightning. His ultimate fear. So good job, Cameron. Good job. He'd be higher on my list if it wasn't for Zoey and Mike dragging him down... ugh.

Anne Maria, labeled The 'Jersey Shore Reject'  4th - I rather like Anne Maria. She almost thwarted the awful abomination that is Mike x Zoey. Props for that. I don't care if she's based on Jersey Shore, she's funny and says some pretty hilarious stuff. I like how she contrasted with her whole team. She stuck out like a sore thumb. She's hilarious.

Dawn, labeled The 'Moon Child'  3rd - Dawn is mysterious in more ways than one. One way is everything she does on the show. Seeing auras, reading tea leaves. She does all the intersting things that people wish they could do. But the biggest mystery of all is how she became so popular before she even hit the screen. She maintained that popularity all the way to her shocking and horrific elimination. Like Noah, she is short-lived, but she has all those strange character attributes that seem to draw you in. What put her so high on this list is the fact that I don't know why I like her. I just feel like she has to be here. I admired her most because a lot of people say she was weak. She ordered her team around like a boss in the water episode. She also had an awesome fail-safe plan in case she was eliminated. That girl is tougher than people think. She's awesome. She shouldn't have gone so early, and I hope they bring her back.

Scott, labeled The 'Devious One'  2nd - Scott made a HUGE change from season 4 to 5. I used to be dismissive. He was widely popular mostly as a fluke. He didn't really deserve his fandom... NOW I believe he deserves one. He was HILARIOUS. THAT... or he was surrounded by horrible characters that made him look fantastic. Probably both. I used to only like Scott for how we has portrayed in everyone's fanfics... but with All Stars, our Scott's have become canon. Hooray for actual comedy and entertaining backstories!

Brick, labeled The 'Cadet'  1st - Brick was a great character. He was honorable and laughable at the same time. One dissapointing factor of his was the anticipation that he and Jo were going to hook up. Alas, that never happened. If it did, perhaps Jo would be more liked by the viewing audience. Brick could have been a Mary Sue. At first glance, he has the background of one, and could easily have been one. But the writers did an excellent job of keeping him funny, interesting, and amusing to watch. Brick is funny, and I liked Revenge of the Island....until he left. Then the show became stupid.

THIRD GENERATION RANKINGS
Amy, labeled The 'Evil Twin'  14th - I'm gonna start off by saying there isn't a single Pahkitew character I despise, or even dislike. Every one of them are entertaining and funny in their own way. What made me love this season the most was how every character seemed to have a story arc. EVERY character. Nobody was just kinda... there. In season one, Tyler, Izzy, Justin, Katie, Sadie, and even DJ were kinda just... there. In Revenge, B, Staci and Dawn were just... there. Everyone in Pahkitew had a role to play. Beardo had a short, but effective storyline. Leonard's legacy continued through Sugar, and then we move onto the twins.... ... Amy... the ONLY dislikable Pahkitew player to me. She's just a Heather 3.0. (Jo was 2.0). She was whiny, and utterly useless. The ringleader to all of Samey's cruelty. Anyone with a sibling rivalry is bound to dislike Amy. Boo on her. Let's move onto the REAL characters.

Dave, labeled The 'Normal Guy'  13th - Dave was GREAT up to the merge. Why do I like Dave? I personall see Dave as a middle finger to Zoke. We all expected Dave and Sky to end up just like Zoke. The fact that that DIDN'T happen really surprised me. I was genuinely pleased with the outcome of Dave and Sky's storyline. Had they ended up together on whim, just as Gwent and Zoke have done, I would have been annoyed and bored. They proved me wrong with this one. I was thoroughly surprised. Dave is a great character because despite his "relationship" with Sky, he has a solid character of his own. Everyone seems to believe he too has a mental disorder due to how strange his interactions were. Frankly, I think we need to put the dissabilities behind us and leave the offensive misinterpretations to Mike. But even if Dave did have a disorder, I'd be okay with that. You wanna know why? Because if he does, it's all up to interpretation, AS IT SHOULD BE. Mike was consistantly labeled "The MPD" and not his own person. Dave wasn't even labeled "The Germaphobe". He was labeled "The Nice Guy". He's not making fun of any disorders. Dave is a character that's making fun of boys who think they're entitled to girls just because they like them. THANK you Total Drama for that. Dave believed he was entitled to Sky, and he got what was coming to him. Well done.

Beardo, labeled The 'Human Boombox'  12th - Dave's only that low because his performance in The Final Wreckening was distasteful. I loved it... but that was seriously rank. Beardo cannot be any higher on the list due to how short lived he was. He lasted ONE episode. He has only appeared in ONE episode. That is not a lot of time to grow fond of a character. The fact that he left the island with a "IT WAS REALLY NICE MEETING ALL OF YOU" was perfection. I laughed, and I felt bad for him. The fact that Total Drama has made me feel empathy for the FIRST character out of the game is astounding. Staci left no impression on me during her stay. Beardo hit us all in the feels for his LAST and ONLY line of the season. Plus, his sound effects were hilarious and made me laugh. Beardo was elimination fodder, but he was GREAT elimination fodder.

Rodney, labeled The 'Lovestruck Farmer'  11th - Rodney made me laugh a lot. I really liked him. His consistant crushes were adorable. Everyone accuses him of being a generic boy who thinks they deserve all of the girls they want. Hello? Did you watch the same season as me? Rodney couldn't STAND the idea of liking two girls at the same time. Guilt tore away at him consistently. Rodney was such a short lived character. I laughed at almost all of his lines due to how emotionally unstable he was. Seeing everyone completely oblivious to his struggles was heartbreaking. His nonsensical babbling made for some great comic relief. Seeing all of the seriousness go down between the other contestants such as Amy and Sammy's rivalry, Jasmine and Shawn's love struggle, and Scarlett and Max's wickedness was always a tension filled fiasco... and then there's Rodney over there in the corner crying over his latest crush. He's so pathetic. He's hilarious.

Topher, labeled The 'Host's Apprentice'  10th - I don't have too much to say about Topher. He didn't come off as a compelling character to me. He was just a Justin 2.0. Literally, he was second half TDA Justin. His goals were the only thing that differed. Regardless, I really enjoyed his story arc. I found it to be something new. The last story arc that involved Chris was Chris and Chef's fight during the TDA finale. It's good to actually give Chris some content after three straight seasons of Chris just being a jerkwad. Topher nearly gave Chris karma. When the tables turned on Topher, i suddenly felt two strange feelings overcome me. I felt pity for Topher, and I felt happy for Chris. Topher became a great character who almost stole the whole season. I'll miss him. I have to give Topher a LOT of credit though for restoring my faith in Chris McClean. I used to despise Chris... now I despise him a tad less. Good job, Toph. OH, and how can anyone forget Topher's best line of the season? "Bring something nice." "I'll bring mai FACE!" That killed me.

Sky, labeled The 'Olympian'  9th - We all thought it. We ALL groaned when we saw this gal paired up with the Mike-color schemed rip-off, Dave. We all were scared. We all thought it was gonna happen again. *Zoke flashbacks* Sky was instantly painted my least favorite character. I hated her. I knew she'd be JUST like Zoey. I KNEW IT.... But oh boy, was I WRONG. Sky has proved herself to be an interesting, likeable, and dynamic character. She has faults and weaknesses, unlike Zoey. Jasmine helped Sky realize that her obsession with Dave was a liability. Nobody ever knocked sense into Zoey that MIKE was a liability to her judgement. Hello? Girl tried to kill herself for Mike. Anyway, back to a better cast with better characters. Sky made mistakes just as every other character did. She never godplayed, because being athletic was her forte. It justified all of her acrobatics. Well done, Total Drama. Sky didn't pull random abilities out of her butt. Sky's storyline with Dave ended in a shock, which made me so happy, since it strayed from the typical "lovey dovey" Total Drama couple tradition of every season. Sky broke the norms. Sky has relieved us of our typical "Total Drama sucks" mentality. Thank you, Sky. THANK YOU.

Leonard, labeled The 'Wizard'  8th - Leonard. Oh, Leonard. You made me crack up. I can't even start to describe how hilarious you were. I absolutely adore this character. There's nothing else to say. He literally just made me laugh a lot. Leonard also made me happy since his relationship with Sugar was so strong. Sugar brought Leonard up like... at least every third episode. That was touching that the show was willing to remember Leonard like that, since we hardly got to see a lot of him. Normally, when a character is eliminated from Total Drama, they're hardly ever spoken of again. This season did a great job of not forgetting everyone... of course... except the finale. That was disappointing. I want my peanut gallery. I want my LEONARD. And thanks to Leonard, I can now properly protect myself from all the haters. *FORCE FIELD*

Sammy, labeled The 'Nice Twin'  7th - All hail the queen of sympathy. All of our hearts bled for Sammy. We were all heartbroken within the first five minutes of the first episode. Amy is terrible to Sammy. She's even passive about Sammy dying. It was then that we all gained a huge hatred for Amy. The angry mobs began, and the Sammy donation centers opened up. We all just wanted to hug Sammy, kiss her head, tell her everything is gonna be okay, and bludgeon Amy with a pogo stick. Sammy really stuck out as an underdog, just as Jasmine described. I genuinely enjoyed her friendship with Jasmine. It's ben a long time since Total Drama's had a genuinely sweet friendship blossom between two girls. I honestly can't remember the last time two girls have been friends on this show. What is it with every girl on this show HATING every other girl? Why does Total Drama like seeing girls fight? Who's writing this show? JOSH!? *catfights. MROW* The only friendships I can think of are Beth and Lindsay, Katie and Sadie... and NOBODY from TDROTI. Thanks, Sammy, for bringing that back. And we all rooted for you when you stuck it to Amy. Amy's return was a bummer. At least we got to see her launched out of a cannon twice. In the end, Sammy left the game with more confidence. In the future, Sammy isn't going to back down when Amy snaps at her. Perhaps outside the game, Sammy is finally taking control over her life again.

Shawn, labeled The 'Zombie Survivalist'  6th - I used to hate Shawn. I thought he was annoying. His zombie gag was tiring, and his ability to do flips and tricks felt a little like godplaying. Then I realized something... he's severely flawed as a character. He's socially inept, he's gross, and he's too paranoid to even bother sleeping in the same cave as his friends. Shawn's physically abilities are great, but his social abilities are piss poor. That's what made his interactions so adorable. Shawn, in the end, went through a lot of development. He was self-reliant, untrusting, and kinda secretive at the start. He really pulled through as a great character who underwent a lot of development. His relationship story with Jasmine was great! Shawn's zombie obsession didn't become the sole focus of his character, which is what worried me. Jasmine helped balance him out. Those are the couples I root for. I like couples who balance each other, but won't leave the other unstable should they walk away for a few seconds. I like independent characters who hook up and add to each other's personality. I hate couples that give each other personalities because both of them are blank slates. Jasmine and Shawn are SO far from being blank slates. Shawn, in the end, was willing to share the money with Jasmine, and felt genuinely happy for her. He went through loads of character development. Kudos, Pahkitew. You did it. He was a deserving winner.

Jasmine, labeled The 'Survivalist'  5th - Jasmine is a great character. She's tall, by the way. WHY IS SHE SO FREAKING TALL. I love her for many reasons. She has a lot of depth to her character, and isn't afraid to speak her mind. Most characters on this show are either doormats, or domineering jerk faces. All the nice people on this show are commonly seen being pathetic, wimpy, and having a shrill, quiet voice in a sea of characters. The mean characters, the villains, are loud, and demanding. There's almost no in-between. Jasmine is that rare in-between. Not only is Jasmine always willing to speak her mind, never batting around the bush or being delicate with others, but she's also self conscious, which is GREAT for a character. Jasmine is always worried about intimidating people. That's so sweet. There's always a pattern every single season before this one. A team leader steps up to take charge, and argues with the whole team and takes the position by force. Jasmine simply walks into the position without so much as a single objection. Rodney almost did... but he went googly eyed for her and dropped out. Anyways, Jasmine is tough, in control, and considerate as a leader. The best part about Jasmine is her depth as a character. Jasmine, as the season comes to a close, shows her true nature to Shawn and shades of it to Sammy beforehand. She's showed her compassionate side to Sammy, but later showed the full force of her true self to Shawn. Jasmine is fragile, and despite her intimidating stature, she's easil breakable on the inside. She weeps in the finale, but ultimately forgives Shawn. Shawn and Jasmine were great characters before they met each other. They were better after as well. They both helped each other come out of their shells to show their sweet and caring sides. Good job, Pahkitew.

Sugar, labeled The 'Honey Boo Boo'  4th - Sugar. SUGAR. Sugar. Sugar has interacted with EVERY character of the season? Did you know that? She is the ONLY character in Pahkitew to somehow interact with EVERY character. Sugar is ridiculous. She's like the love-child of Izzy and Owen. She's gross, disgusting, and vile. She's also whacky, goofy, and unfathomably random. But she's not some goofball without a brain, like the majority of the goofy characters before her. She's very capable of thinking for herself. She's not bubbly or friendly. We get a strange new mixture of this. Sugar is both silly, AND evil. Much like, Scott, only more odd and whimsical. She knows how to play the game, and she has her reasons for everything. Sugar's storyline with Ella is phenomenal. We wouldn't love Ella as much as we do if it weren't for Sugar, the same way we love Sammy if it weren't for Amy. (See what I'm talking about? Girls always fighting girls. No friendships in this show) Sugar says the most goofiest things and is seriously dimwitted. But socially, she's a tank. She picks her fights and knows when to run away. She knows what's she doing. Sugar's almost "Izzy-like" randomness kills me every time. I want to hate Sugar... but I just can't. Her best lines include "Choo Choo! Imma BUS!" "Why do puppets have legs? We all know they can't walk" and "There's no way we can lose. We have a WIZARD on our teAM". What people have to think about too, regarding the Ella conflict, is that Sugar's been in pageants all of her life. She suspects that Ella is just out to sabotage her. Isn't that sad... that Sugar mistakes kindness for having ulterior motives? Poor Sugar. Anywhozits... I LOVE Sugar. sHE'S TOO FUNNY TO HATE. And how can we all forget her song. That. Was. Glorious. Craptry forever. Love ya Sugar.

Max, labeled The 'Super Villain'  3rd - OH MY GOSH I did NOT think I would like this character! Max is HILARIOUS. There's really not much else to it. What I admire so much about him is his design. It's so... different. It's a lot of reasons why people dislike Max. But COME ON. There are some worse designs out there. Ahem... MIKE exhibit A. The hate people have for Max just drives me to like him ever more. Max is THE most ridiculous character on this show. It's hilarious how he believes he's so evil, but in reality is not for SO many reasons. He's inherently bad at it, and he's really just a nice guy underneath all of that "diabolicalness". "Yes, sir". Max honestly just cracks me up. He just fills me with so much joy. Anyone who hates Max just because of his design... shut up. Y'all some shallow fricks. "TIME TO EVIL!!!"

Ella, labeled The 'Fairytale Princess'  2nd - Total Drama has a habit of shoving characters down our throats who are "cutthroat", "manipulative", and "domineering". Total Drama has almost made it seem like the only way to be an empowering character and person is to step on other's throat. We've been dealing with Lightning, Jo, Courtney, Alejandro, Sugar, Eva, and Heather etc. People who use brute force to get what they want at times. Total Drama has multiple instances of girl's proclaiming that the only way to get what you want is to walk all over people. Boy characters do it. Girl characters do it. The show is just people walking all over each other. Ella is a WONDERFUL breath of fresh air. Most characters on TD are either super smart, but super mean, or too dumb to live. Ella shows that being kind is also an empowering tool. She does nothing but show kindness and love, and she gets to leave the island in the best way possible. She never loses her temper or strays from being anything other than calm. She sends a good message. That is another way to handle stress. Take life with a smile and good nature, you don't have to step on fingers or destroy people like 90% of the characters in Total Drama do on a daily basis. And yeah, it's a competition, but it's also filled with distinct characters with different ambitions and personalities. It just seems that 90% of the cast all share the same meatheaded mentality.

Scarlett, labeled The 'Nerd'  1st - Scarlett is a perplexing character to me. I simply adore the everliving daylights out of her for multiple reasons. She's witty and brilliant. Everyone else is tumultuous compared to her. There are a lot of dim-witted characters on Pahkitew Island (and I mean that in the most sincere way since most of the other's idiotic nature makes them funny) I.E. Max, Sugar, Rodney, Leonard, etc. Scarlett is the token normal character. We're expected to believe that everything about her is completely and utterly normal. The truth is, she's not. She's one of the most animated and chaotic characters on the entire show. She spends the entirety of her time on Total Drama being polite and borderline creepily intelligent. Hearing her endless babble of elongated sentence patterns is a cyclistic and wonderful sensation. She does something Total Drama hasn't done in a long time. She educates us. I have literally learned a lot from Scarlett. Everything she says isn't just nonsense to sound smart. Every line of hers is TRUE. The fact that its true shows me that the writers really put forth effort into making her instead of going ahead with making another bubbly goofball. Idiots are hilarious, but they're SO easy to write for. Making intelligent characters is difficult, because the writer themselves have to be intelligent. Scarlett proved that these writers were indeed intelligent. That's a HUGE relief to have after All Stars. Scarlett's journey to the darkside was phenomenal. Most people didn't know about the "evil Scarlett" rumors and were completely blown away by her shocking revelation. There were teeny hints as the episodes moved forward. Well, tiny in a kid/teen's show aspect kind of way. Her buildup was fantastic. I can't recall the last time Total Drama has shocked us like that. That was the first time in forever (FOOOR THE FIIIRST TIME IN FORRREEEVVERRR) that Total Drama shocked us without using an elimination. Most of Total Drama's plot twists consist of shocking eliminations. Rarely does it have major plot shifts that don't involve an elimination. Island didn't have that many. Action had none. World Tour had the big KISS. That sparked outrage. Revenge had ... basically none. All Stars ... I don't wanna talk about All Stars. Pahkitew was PACKED full of them. Or in this case, "PAHK'D" full of them. BA DUM BUMSCH! *crickets* ... Rough crowd. Anyway, Scarlett's shocking revelation lasts only an episode... but by the time the episode is down, you've lost your breath and can't even recall what just happened. But you're not left with a bitter taste in your mouth like the Gwuncan kiss did. You're really truly captivated and awed. I was IMPRESSED at how great Scarlet Fever was. It may have had a swift end to Scarlett, but boy was that worth the wait. That was one of the most hilarious and tense episodes I've ever seen. I loved it. I love Scarlett for making that happen. Since most of the characters in Pahkitew are whacky and goofy, Scarlett is a fantastic foil character to them. She balances out the craziness... and then she takes it all for herself in the end. Scarlett. Well done. I thank the selection committee for their time.
