Truly. And it has to stop, it's making everything far too toxic. You want drama fine, but if this is how you're looking to achieve, there's a serious issue in their understanding of how that works, most shows do not constantly make such reckless mistakes with their characters in achieving it. Yet this one has made that mistake repeatedly. They should know better about what tests an audience's patience. Fastest way to turn off your viewers. Total Drama used to be more than just drama, drama that has become increasingly pointless, lacking in finesse or intelligence, and even borderline offensive more than once. The damage is becoming too severe to ignore, there needs to be a serious reevaluation of how they do drama, and how they balance it out with everything else. They can't afford a repeat of the reset button fiasco or anything else on par with the Trinity.

Gwen's role in TDAS has eroded her fandom. Her personality is now thoroughly fubar no thanks to her wildly confusing and inconsistent character, which came to a head in TDAS. Becoming so close with three of the most hated characters in the show truly did not help oher, most do not buy that TDI Gwen would've been so eager to bond with those three especially. Plus she just comes off as both stupid and unsympathetic in that season. You won't see me calling her my #1 again anytime soon. Courtney is still very popular but also very loathed. Yes there are some that like her post TDA persona, oddly enough. But there are just as many who simply sympathize with how bad her character has suffered and others who see more to her. She gets both love and hate for her often over-the-top character, but plenty of people on both sides of the spectrum still are agreed that she has been derailed. Yet the side that loves her is still going strong, and she even gained some sympathizers who have had it with her derailment, while those who already hated her are only more resolute about it now, though there are those who don't justify what they've been doing to her.

Complicated, I know. X_X

Yes. YES, it would. I swear there is something about that guy and his methods. What was he doing when it was his turn to edit? And if he had that much say in the passage of the scripts we saw play out, then that explains a big part of why this sucked. He's not a guy you can entrust to work unchecked as of late with this particular series.

True. But you can tell this project was devoid of better judgement or regard for the viewers.

Thank you for saying that, Stryzzar. After all the grief and resentment that episode has caused me and so many others, I cannot just sit silently about it, silence just isn't an option for me. I'm very anxious about what may come of it, this is a landmine matter I'm tapping my foot on. But this episode bothers me worse than most others, along with the rest of the Trinity. Even now they still do, and I have to get in my word to make clear to them just what we felt after seeing it. That's why I hope it makes some kind of impact among those who read it.
