6. Total Drama Action: Fueled By Nostalgia
I remember as a kid, I would watch Total Drama a lot. Whenever it was on, I would watch. Every single new episode. I saw every single episode of TDI as it came, and ALMOST every episode of TDA as soon as it aired (darn you, breaking TV!), and as a kid I didn't realize how boring TDA was. I pretty much only adored it because I beyond adored TDI. Looking back, there were some great things about TDA, like Aftermaths and Leshawna's arc, and my favorite: Harold and Lindsay's arcs, but there were some bad parts too, like the large amount of filler via reward challenges and Owen's floating, as well as Justin being a...bad villain. You know, you can usually tell which half of a season of TD is better; for example, TDI was pretty solid throughout, so nothing there, but I suppose it got even better after the merge (barely though, it was great from the beginning), and the first half of World Tour (Walk Like An Egyptian to I See London...) was superior, the first half of TDRI (Bigger! Badder! Brutal-er! to A Mine is a Terrible Thing to Waste), and though TDAS was terrible, it was better before the merge (although the merger episode is my favorite), since the post-merge episodes were some stinkers. The first half of TDPI was better as well. But with TDA...I can't really tell. The challenges were more interesting and fresh in the first half, but Courtney really pumped things up a notch or two with her arrival.

5. Total Drama Revenge of the Island: People We Knew For 5 Seconds
After I only watched the first half of World Tour in it's first airing (I've seen the entire season like twice now), I didn't watch Revenge of the Island. When I decided to watch every season again, I also watched TDRI for the first time and I was pretty disappointed. Interesting characters like B, Dawn, Brick and Anne Maria were out way too early and Scott's plan was just...bad. The 13-Episode format was too short and we never really got to know the characters. WHY does Staci lie? We even knew Ezekiel's story! A lot of characters were bland and shallow, and the gimmick of mutant monsters was just a lame grab at hype for kids who were into that kind of stuff. Weird season. This was a mess of a season, but not as much as TDA. I liked the cameos.

4. Total Drama Pahkitew Island: The Fresh Slate
I like how the series decided to try a fresh start. No sign of any first gen or second gen characters, we got complete focus on our new batch. Also, Chris toned down his sadism, yay! The only problem with this season was that the characters were wayy too gimmicky, almost all of them except a select few, like Jasmine, Sky and Samey. Although I wouldn't mind seeing some of them again. The challenges in this season weren't bad either, they were pretty creative.

2. Total Drama World Tour: Everything Refreshing
Total Drama World Tour was nearly a completely perfect season. Everything about it was so well-conceived, well thought out and executed. Well, almost. Sadly, every season has it's down points. Some seasons less than others. In World Tour's case, I felt the derailment of Courtney, the love triangle, Noah and Tyler's elimination and Duncan's return were annoying. However, there were so many plus points. Alejandro was a billion times improvement over Justin. Heather's development was flawless. Noah and Tyler got such excellent development that now they're my favorite characters. Noah and Tyler in TDWT actually got the "TDA Lindsay" treatment, in the way that they were both amazing in their respective seasons but were robbed in the end. The Aftermaths were pretty entertaining this season as well, as was Blaineley, especially when she got onto the show. Sierra was an excellent addition to the show as well; her voice actress is simply brilliant at her job. Cody getting to the Final 3 was something that, I think, made nearly every fan very happy, whether they were a Cody fangirl or not. But my absolute favorite part of the season was...the songs! Yes, the songs were my favorite part of the season. I loved how catchy they were, and how they ranged from romantic reggae (Oh, My Izzy) to Swedish Pop (We Built Gwen's Face) to love ballads (I'm Sorry) to techno (Versus), Rock and Roll (Stuck to a Pole and Shear the Sheep) and my favorite song...Blainerific! Yes, the vainest song of the season is my favorite! It's so catchy! Anyway, without further ado, here's the

Episode Rankings:

1. Total Drama Island: Cannot Be Described In Words
This season is a beautiful season. A lot of shows have a first season that starts out rough, but that is definitely not the case with Total Drama. This season is a beautiful tapestry that tells the story of these 22 characters in such a way that they all connect, they all form together to create a season that is truly a masterpiece. I can rewatch this season a billion and one times and I still won't get sick of it. That's just how good it is. It's actually hard for me to rank the episodes, because they're all perfect. It's genuinely hard for me to believe that Total Drama Island and Total Drama All-Stars come from the same show. This season is the show at it's prime. When the creators try their very best, put their very heart and soul into the show, this is the result.
