Unlike most of you, I didn't actually even watch TDI when it first aired on CN, let alone being aware of its existence as I never really watched TV back then. But I did watch the special, and thought "Hey, this show's cool. I wonder what it is. I like the fat guy, and the dorky one. Why is that girl bald? And why does everyone hate her? Those people are jerks." I was quite naive about the show back then lol.

On the contrary, my sister was a huge CN fan and when I saw the promos for TDA, I knew it was the same show and thought "Oh, the special linked the two seasons together! It's a series of seasons called Total Drama! I know what to look up now! (leading to my first glimpse of this wiki, though I wouldn't join until TDA was over)" Later on I watched some of the last episodes of TDI and the first two episodes of TDA on demand (learning why that girl named Heather was bald), and back then the Cartoon Network website had the first season and I was completely caught up by the Gwent breakup episode (3:10 to Crazytown) and was finally hooked by watching the season regularly, while playing the online game the Best. Game. Ever.

The rest is history!

(PS: I still don't know why they haven't made a game like the Best. Game. Ever. for any other season, or why they haven't made it available anymore. It truly was the best game ever.)
