User blog comment:VeryUnknownFan/The Seasonal Rot of Total Drama Action (Part 2)/@comment-24971793-20141124010445

I personally never really experienced the season as a rehash. And from the mentioned examples the only one I have a problem with is Duncan and Courtney, cause it reverses and repeats a storyline/development that already happened. Making their interactions in the previous season feel pretty pointless. The other examples individually don't bother me, but I get that if you look at the bigger picture (the sum of all these rehashes) and also keep in mind that there wasn't much new material to balance them out. Then I get why this is a problem.

Definitely agree on the filler and the winning/losing streak. Sometimes something that works in real reality competitions might not work in TD and I think those streaks are one of those things. In a real reality competition a streak would be very dramatic since it's strange coincidence. But in this 100% scripted show they usually end up making the show very predictable.
