User blog comment:Flagator24/Is Pahkitew Island better than Revenge of the island?/@comment-1037137-20180517070435

People still hate hard on Revenge of the Island, I don't get it. Yes, it gave us Mike and Zoey who are pretty bad in hindsight but then you got petty complaints like "The island is radioactive, that's unrealistic". Give me a break, dudes. More legit complaints can be levied on the decision to have Lightning face Cameron in the finale instead of Jo or Dakota mutating.

But this season still had excellent challenges, some standout players both major and minor (Brick, anyone?), and it still had better focus than say something like Pahkitew. Which couldn't even give the twins' story any proper closure and pulled the villain card with Scarlett far too late in the game. At least in this season things mostly came in a full circle and the finale was entertaining and felt like a proper finish overall.

As far as bad seasons go, Revenge is not one of them. Yes even with Mike and Zoey, you got enough good elements to balance out against that. I don't get why the hate for Revenge is still so vocal. To compare it against TDAS and TDPI is both unfounded and unfair. You all know Revenge easily could've been far worse.
