The Drama Brothers



The Drama Brothers are a boy band that was formed sometime between Total Drama Action and Total Drama World Tour. This band consisted, originally, of Trent, Justin, Harold, and Cody. Currently, Sasquatchanakwa is in the band replacing Cody, since he is still competing in Total Drama World Tour. They have one known hit single entitled "When I Cry" which topped the charts. The band's songs and albums sold out stadiums and rocketed the boys to stardom.

The Drama Brothers took the world by storm for a short time. They were total pop celebrities: groupies, publicity, and parties. But due to a birthday party where they all jumped in a pool naked, the group was forced to do community service. However, things were going seemingly well for a while until an interview with Josh, where some problems with the band became revealed. Trent got annoyed by Justin "playing" the guitar and snatched it, possibly because they were in the middle of an interview or because he was offended by his attempts. Justin says earlier in the episode that he can't play an instrument, but the fans don't seem to care, as they seem to admire his beauty instead of talent.

Trent stated that their problem was the music, to which Harold rebutted "You mean the beatboxing," but Trent stated that this was due to not "giving the fans what they want," suggesting touching fans on an emotional level like Trent himself does, although Harold insists that lots of fans want him to make a solo album based around his beatboxing too. Trent sighs, mentioning to Josh that "You just can't bring up the beatboxing around him." Cody asked Justin what he thought, but he didn't hear him since he was breaking up with a girl via text message, which Trent asked Justin to do to his girlfriend, too. Later that day, Harold decided to leave the band and go "LO$O" (solo). They were then shown promoting their latest albums at a record store, with Justin, Trent, and Cody at one table, and Harold at the other. Neither the boy band or "H-bomb" were able to sell any albums, and they broke up what was left of the band.

On the red carpet in Celebrity Manhunt's Total Drama Action Reunion Special, they revealed that they were getting back together, only to release their final album, despite Harold's tell-all book about the band. Harold and Cody later advance on to Total Drama World Tour, while Trent and Justin do not.

The band reunited once more in Aftermath: Bridgette Over Troubled Water with Sasquatchanakwa replacing Cody. They perform a music number called, Baby and are later chased off by a yellow bus full of school girl fans.

The band is seen playing back-up in the song, Save This Show in the Aftermath: Revenge of the Telethon.

The band is seen again in Aftermath Aftermayhem, this time playing back-up in the song, Her Real Name Isn't Blaineley. For this song, Trent is playing a balalaika, Harold is playing a tuba, and Sasquatchanakwa is playing the accordion, instead of their usual instruments. Despite this, Justin still plays the tambourine, due to the fact he cannot actually play any real instrument, unlike the other band members.

In Hawaiian Style and Hawaiian Punch, Harold, Trent and Justin all cheered for Cody to win Total Drama World Tour, most likely because he's a fellow band member.

Trivia

 * Both have a member that wears glasses (Although when they are playing, everyone in the band has glasses).
 * Harold's book is a reference to In His Own Write.
 * This is the second band to be mentioned in the series, as Courtney also had a band called the "Type-A Psychotic Crazies," but they broke up, because all 5 of them wanted to be the lead singer. The third band mentioned, Der Schnitzel Kickers, which Duncan was in, was mentioned in I See London... and the third aftermath.
 * Harold is the only member of the band to compete in all three seasons.
 * All the other members of the band competed in two seasons.
 * If you notice the picture of the band jumping into the pool, you can see Sierra standing on the side of the house spying on them, and Sasquatchanakwa is in the pool.
 * Harold's "H-Bomb" nickname might be a reference to Ocean's Eight - Or Nine, after Duncan calls Harold and Heather "the H-Bombs" in a confessional.
 * H-Bomb leaving the group could be a parody of Totally Boyband, a boyband project produced in the United Kingdom that was shown on MTV.
 * Cody is the only member not to make it to Total Drama Action.
 * They have all been rejected by a girl they were attracted to on an occasion, or were broken up with the girl.
 * Justin was rejected by Courtney.
 * Harold is broken up with LeShawna.
 * Cody was rejected by Gwen.
 * Trent is broken up with Gwen
 * It is evident that Trent has become somewhat hardened from either the band or his break-up with Gwen, because breaking up over text message is something that the sensitive and sweet Trent from Total Drama Island would not be expected to do.
 * A majority of the band members were on the Screaming Gophers.
 * Harold is the only Killer Bass, Screaming Gaffer,and Team Victory member in the band, while the other members are from the Screaming Gophers while in Total Drama Island (Justin, Trent, and Cody), Killer Grips in Total Drama Action (Justin and Trent) and Team Amazon in Total Drama World Tour (Cody).
 * This means that Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot is the only team none of the band members have been on.

 * They all made it to the merge once. Trent in Total Drama Island, Harold and Justin in Total Drama Action, and Cody in Total Drama World Tour.
 * They all hate Duncan, and Trent and Justin had a problem with Heather. Cody and Harold didn't, because she was their friend.
 * Sasquatchanakwa appears to be a member of the band, or even friends with the band, as he takes Cody's place during the aftermaths, and in Celebrity Manhunt's Total Drama Action Reunion Special, he attended their party.
 * All of the members have been eliminated by at least one of the main antagonists of the series, and, with the exception of Cody, have been eliminated by two different antagonists at one point or another:
