Hello Mr. McGillis,

My name is Tobie, and I have been an avid viewer of a good amount of shows developed by FreshTV for a large amount of my life; having followed 6Teen, Stoked, and of course, Total Drama since their debuts here in America. Now being 20, I, and a hefty amount of other viewers around my age, take no shame in saying that these shows have played, and continue to play, a major part in our lives; you and your team perfectly managed to channel all of the angst, confusion, and hectic "goingson" of being a teenager, and growing up in general. I would like to start off this email by thanking you, Jen, and all of the creative team, artists, voice actors, there at FreshTV for crafting a large part of our adolescence that we will fondly look back on. Total Drama is actually the series that inspired me to become a writer of both graphic novels and other works of fiction.

My reasoning for sending this email however, is because there has been a growing concern amongst the fan base of, arguably, your most popular show (and my personal favorite) Total Drama. It is no secret that the past few seasons haven't been very well-received, and I was hoping that maybe, since you and your team, helped craft the awe-inspiring masterpiece that was TDI; it truly was a great season that worked for a plethora of reasons, would maybe be so gracious as to take the time to hear our voice as to why the viewerbase has seen a decline in quality of the series; and maybe help to implement them or at least pass along our words. We care very deeply about the show, as I said it has gotten a lot of people through tough times and helped give us characters that we could relate to while growing up. We don't want to see the show go off the air due to complaints, failing ratings, people being offended, etc. We love the show, and it's very unique concept and diverse cast of characters (my personal favorite being Ezekiel; you know, when he was still sane), and we only want to see it reach the same level of praise and quality as it saw in Island and the first half of World Tour.

Again, thank you SO much for taking the time to read this email. I sincerely hope that we may have some beneficial correspondence. I hope you have a spectacular day; and look forward to your response.

Sincerely,

- Tobie
