User blog comment:Gogogadget831/Final Review of Total Drama Pahkitew Island/@comment-25297892-20140815121236

"Hurl and go seek" was one of the worst episodes ever seen.Seeing the promo,I imagined it to be epic,and instead resulted just disgusting and scary,but not in an interesting way,at all.It ruined utterly the Skave development and wrecked Dave too much (I expected him in the top 5) to stay more.I never laughed or got interested in this episode,something that doesn't happen since "Full Metal Drama" and "Ex Files",also I found for the first time the Jashawn boring and forced.All those people sick like zombies...nah,too predictable.By the way,the title perfectly fitted:I hurled and felt sick when I watched it. The finale episode was epic except for the Skave parts,that really ruined both the characters over every immagination,and Sky lost rightly all my respect.Poor Dave,just poor Dave.

Speaking of the contestants,this is my rank:

Best:Jasmine,Shawn,Samey (the most realistic in my opinion being actually a simple girl)and Max (useless in challenges,but super funny). Interesting:Scarlett,Topher,Ella (these three needed a little more development,especially Ella) Acceptable:Sugar,Sky,Dave (the last two derailed after Hurl and Go Seek) No More:Amy (plot device for Samey,unrealistic queen be,pure meanie..Have to continue?),Rodney (dumbest senseless ever),Leonard (useless) and Beardo (pure filler)

Comedy and Drama:perfectly agreed,the only big flaw was the too gross comic role of Sugar (I felt really sick watching her sometimes) and the too crybaby drama given to Dave,that really made me mad towards the authors.

Challenges:some were very original (such as I love you Grease Pigs,Three Zones and a baby,this is the pits),others less,and again "Hurl and Go Seek" had the worst and most unoriginal challenge,being the disgusting pale copy of Hide and be Sneaky.

Writing:basically perfect that I alas thought they have returned to the old good quality of the first season...I changed slightly idea after "Hurl and Go Seek" but came back satisfied soon after again.So,the writing for this season was the best of the second trio (TDROTI,TDAS and TDPI),and the only one to be able to manage it well in only 13 episode.TDAS instead suffered totally of this disadvantaging number,while TDROTI just started the fall.

Realistic:only TDI and merely TDWT are to be considered realistic.TDA didn't respect its main theme (movies?They just changed set episode by episode for challenges very poor in term of originality and thematic -.-),TDROTI was wasted by the radioactive location,that really annoyed me,TDAS was a poor return for Wawanakwa (I'll miss the Island forever),and TDPI was really unrealistic,despite likable.TDPI had a cast that seemed just exit from the same mandatory of Izzy (XD) and signed forever the new actual direction of TD series,passing from a reality parody to a complete comedic cartoon.So this is THE reason of the lack of realism in TDPI.

Final Opinion:I really expected another horrible season,and instead I was very surprised by Pahkitew,above all by the cast.I placed it at number three after TDWT (2nd) and TDI (1st)
