The main problem is that people love to compare past contestants with future/current ones. Remember before Total Drama: Revenge of the Island came out? I'm pretty sure most if not all the contestants were compared to at least one person from the original cast. Dakota was the "New Heather", Dawn was the "New Gwen", Anne Maria was the "New Leshawna", Scott was the "New Duncan", Lightning was the "New Tyler", Mike was the "New Cody" and etc. Those are just some of the few I can name off the top of my head. The same thing is happening with this cast. Sky is the "New Zoey", Dave is the "New Noah and Mike", Beardo is the "New B", Leonard is the "New Sam and Harold" and etc. It gives people comfort because they're really curious to get to know the new contestants.

As for the characters themselves, I personally like Dave and Sky (though no one tops Sugar). I usually tend to like what people consider to be the "boring" or the "bland" characters (Bridgette, Trent, Zoey are all guilty pleasure characters for me, haha. DJ and Samey? Not so much). Anyways, I totally agree with this blog, Ryan. I love your blogs because they're so full of detail and you back everything up. Great job!
