Total Drama Island: The Complete First Season

Total Drama Island: The Complete First Season is the first season of Total Drama on DVD. It was released on August 18th, 2009 in the United States and features all episodes of the season, excluding the special, despite the fact that both the box and commercial state it is included. The episodes are the edited versions played on Cartoon Network, to keep this series for a younger age limit, as the original copy shown in Australia and other countries contain some inappropriate language for a some younger audiences. The main menus of all discs feature all twenty-two campers in the group pose from the first episode and in a different location on each disc, with the series' theme song playing.

The Episode selection menus show only a few of the campers and have the instrumental version of the theme song (the one that always plays during an episode's end credits) playing in the background. The DVD set was distributed by Warner Bros. Entertainment under Warner Home Video.

Cast Interviews
The cast interviews are the audition tapes of the contestants. The tapes that did not air during the rundown (Lindsay's, Tyler's, Duncan's, Courtney's, Harold's Leshawna's, and Trent's) are shown here. The complete version of Beth's tape is also included, along with both of Izzy's audition tapes, her interview with Chris, and clips featuring Chef and Mr. Coconut.

Trivia

 * The screenshots on each disc are from the following episodes:
 * Disc one: Not So Happy Campers - Part 2. The shot of Tyler, Bridgette, DJ, Harold, Beth, Owen, Ezekiel, Gwen, and Leshawna all looking over the edge of the 1,000-foot cliff.
 * Disc two: Basic Straining. The scene where Duncan, Courtney, Geoff, Owen, Gwen, and Heather are hanging upside-down from tree branches, with Chef Hatchet below them.
 * Disc three: The Sucky Outdoors. The shot of the entire Screaming Gophers team (save for Noah, Justin, and Gwen) all being suddenly stopped up and bumping into each other as Heather stops and glares at them.
 * Disc four: Haute Camp-ture. The shot of Justin, Bridgette, Tyler, Geoff, Lindsay, DJ, Eva, Cody, Trent, Courtney, Harold, and Ezekiel all sitting around the pool at Playa Des Losers.
 * Notably, with the exception of disc three, each screenshot is from an episode on the corresponding disc.
 * Despite being the Cartoon Network version, some of the show's edits have been removed, and some of the Canadian dialogue is retained, including:
 * Owen screaming "crap!" in Not So Happy Campers - Part 2.
 * Heather's mention of "suck" while judging the Killer Bass' performance in Dodgebrawl.
 * Owen's last letter of the alphabet "zed" in Not Quite Famous.
 * In Australia, the season is sold in 2 separate collections, the first half and the second half, each containing 2 discs with the same episodes on each disc as the Canadaian version.
 * In Australia, the DVD shows the original uncut version of Total Drama Island, which is odd, due to the fact that the same episodes that were aired in the United States were aired in Australia, but the United States' DVD was edited.
 * Disc Four is the only disc that doesn't have seven episodes; it, instead, has only six.

Goofs

 * Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island isn't included in this DVD set, even though it is an episode and is implied on the case. Instead, TDI Rundown was in this DVD.
 * This is the same case for iTunes, as Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island isn't included on the Total Drama Island downloads. However, TDI Rundown is on iTunes.
 * Also, TDI Rundown is listed as being after the finale, even though it really took place in between I Triple Dog Dare You! and the finale.
 * In the disc one menu, Owen's leg is missing.
 * Strangely, the Canadian intern is shown in The Very Last Episode, Really! instead of the American one.
 * On the cover in the Australian DVD, DJ is not seen with the other campers.
 * On the disc one menu, "Not So Happy Campers Part 1" and "Not So Happy Campers Part 2" are lacking a hyphen.
