Couples Review
12. Courtney and Scott:

As some of you already know, I dislike this couple. They are actually the ONLY ones that I dislike and shiver at the thought at. Anyways, one of the reasons as to why I do not like them is that we do not know what they like about one another. He said she is pretty and bossy I guess, and for her,......... whatr is there. If there is a reason, please post it in the comments. In Food Fright, she wants to be allies with him and then in Moon Madness, she feels something missing as a Scott bird comes in her view. They end up half-weirdly flirt and then get together? Wait, what sincere interaction  do they have with one another other than those 2-liners? Nothing. And now that they are together, they argue and break up, and make up, to only break up in the most ridiculous way, for Scott to STILL miss her after she is gone and blame Gwen for her elimination, though he went right along with it. They are way too rushed, shallow, and uninvestible for my liking. Too random also, ugh.

11. Mike and Zoey:

This couple I do not dislike, but I could care less about. I see why they like one another, and they do have action movies  in common, and they like that they are nice. They are already extremely clingy to one another, acting like they are a couple in Truth or Laser Shark, and she got so mad at Anne Maria for flirting with him, like they were in a committed relationship, which they were not until the VERY END. Mike tells Zoey that his personalities are an act, which gets in the way, and she gets mad because he cannot decide who he wants, and all of that. He finally tells her the truth and she accepts him, saying she likes oddballs. In All Stars, they are doing fine for the first 2 episodes, but she realizes he cannot change into his personalities, and his change of behaviour via Mal. She was warned by Duncan and Alejandro about Mal and sees some of the signs herself, but she still ignores it because she is hopeful. This couple is not too bad, but the 13-episode seasons are making it extremely rushed, and the fact that the characters themselves are flat and underdeveloped does not help the couple. Can't invest in uninteresting characters and the fact that they are probably going to be the finals for All-Stars after getting all the focus on ROTI is not making me smile with joy. Too shallow for my liking.

10. Duncan and Courtney:

Now let me just say this, I was a fan of this couple, and even after the Gwuncan kiss thing, but the I was watching an episode of Jersey Shore of Ron and Sammie arguing, and it reminded me of the constant arguing, and unhealthy relationship between Duncan and Courtney. Then I started thinking of the couple more and more and realized they would never work. While they are physically attracted to one another and can be a great team, it is clear that they like the sides that are similar to themselves (Duncans' good boy, sweet, neat side, and Courtney's bad, rule breaking, naughty side). Opposites do attract, but there needs to be some common ground that these two never had with one another, and there was also some resentfulness on both of their sides about their personalities. Courtney wants to change him, he clearly is more attracted to her bad girl side, and they cannot compromise with everything. Not to upset the Duncney side, but they are both too immature and different to make it work. Nicfe moments, but the negatives override the positives.

'''9. Dakota and Sam:'''

Honestly, there is not a lot to say about them. In the 2nd episode of ROTI, he is trying to flirt with her because he thinks she is pretty, which she tries to find something to compliment him on. They somehow becomes friends by the next episode (don't know how), and they say hi to one another and she starts falling for him, which she found strange since she never felt guilt and things like that. She helps him with fashion advice for a challenge, causing him to get eliminated, and they officially get together after she turns into a monster. Still don't know really why they like one another, but they seem a lot more authentic than Mike and Zoey. Probably cause of the lack of screentime. I can see them working it though and bringing the best in one another.

8. Duncan and Gwen:

I'll state the elephant of the room with this couple and Duncney, don't really care for them or the stupid triangle drama. Anyways, their friendship was paced well, and they have a lot of the same interests and such, and I do believe there was a small attraction for one another in Action, but it is kind of weird that as soon as Duncan returns, he goes and makes out with Gwen. I do believe Gwen brought the best in Duncan which was seen in All Stars, but clearly he did not bring out the best in her. They are attracted to one another, work well together, have nice conversations and moments, but I do not like how thier relationship formed by cheating. Now while I get what they were trying to do with Gwen in  All Stars, couldn't they have written the break-up better? Why would she break up someone she has been friends and a relationship with for a few years for someone she was becoming friends with? It just seemed too forced to me. Nice, but I like A LOT of the others more.

7. Owen and Izzy:

I actually really like this couple. Though their hookup was kind of rushed in TDI, thoughh there was the scene with the snake dance. In TDA, they developed this couple a lot more, and I think this is one of the things TDA did RIGHT. They can handle being apart unlike most couples, and have a great time when together. They are both gross, oddballs, fun and are a bit nasty, which they like about one another though having differences as well. They are seen to be doing well in WT as well, though they break up so suddenly but were the most consistant couple of them all up to that point (thanks executive meddling). I understand the message of not every first relationship working out, but there was no reason for them to break up, and were doing the best out of the others. They already had that with Harold and LeShawna, and Trent and Gwen. They never got that much focus, which is why I cannot put them higher.

'''6. Gwen and Trent:'''

This couple was clearly the main one in Total Drama Island, and I really like them. They are both artistic, down-to-earth, and nice people. She did not know if she could trust him, and they went through so much in TDI mostly thnaks to Heather. You could see the attraction for one another as soon as Trent got off the boat. While it is sad what happened to them, I understand both sides. Duncan is a known trouble maker, and was telling Gwen a bunch of ish, and would any of you guys leave your girl with Duncan?...... that is what I thought. He should have listened to Gwen though about not throwing challenges and about Duncan. He started going crazy, and clearly had unresolvesd issues to deal with. I just wished he was not in the series to solely be Gwen's love interest and tossed aside forever afterwards.

5. Jasmine and Shawn

I have to admint that I grew very fond of their relationship during the course of TDPI.They have a lot of common interests and their interactions were not forced and all lovey dovey in the first few episodes of the season. They are both adventurous, and very resourceful people who both have their own issues. It did get annoying when Shawn would not shut the hell up about his zombie gimmick, and that is why he can't get with her, and yda, yada, yada. When she was mad at Shawn for donig the challenge, I thought she was over reacting A LOT, and it was even more annoying that it went on for the next 4 episodes. When they finally amde up, they were at their best, and it was nice to see a couple actually work together and ally throughout the rest of the merge, but then the money issue came up. She expected him to share money with her if he won, and he bashed her dreams behind her back. But they handle their issues like mature people do. They are not my favourite, but they don't frustrate me with how bad they are.

'''4. Lindsay and Tyler'''

Yeah, I know, they are kind of underdeveloped, don't spend that much time together before they are making out, but they are so cute. Maybe it is because they are interesting as characters so it works for them unlike Mike and Zoey. These two can clearly do well apart, and are always on one another's minds. They like that they are cute, nice, bubbly, and clearly think one another are funny, since they were laughing under the dock about something in Dodgebrawl. I wish they had more time to develop as a couple, but of course were tossed aside to develop others, but you can tell they care for one another. They are a cliche couple, a bit lustful, and them not being that developed is why I cannot put them higher, though they are fun to watch and clearly care about one another.

3. Bridgette and Geoff:

They were my favourite couple for many years. I liked that they spend quality time together, they had so much in common, I loved everything about them. I guess what put them down a few spots is the break-up, make up thing. Alright, so they are almost instantly attracted to one another, and Geoff tries to impress her, making a bunch of cute and funny moments, but they eventually hit it off. They are down-to-earth, practically made for one another and like the beach. TDA they became too inseperable, constantly making out, then Geoff became fame-hungry, and Bridgette becomes trifling with cheating on Geoff. It is so easy to see why they like one another (down to earth, attractive, live for fun, nice, loves everything about the beach life), and they do bring out the best in one another. I am glad that they are not in All Stars because I would not like to see them ruined. They have nice, authentic moments, and their relationship feels real.

2. LeShawna and Harold:

I know, I am such a weirdo for having them this high. First off, I do not buy it when LeShawna says her and Harold are only friends, and she has no feelings for him. She is seen flirting with him for the last few episodes of her run on Action, and defending him when someone (Duncan) messed with him. And in World Tour  when they were reunited, she was a bit too friendly with him, calling him "Ginger Baby-cakes", and letting him cuddle up with her in that scene where Courtney is dissing Duncan and Gwen. She also excludes him from her sing "Sisters" about lying men. He clearly brings out the best in her, and she likes ot be treated like a Queen, which is exactly what he does, and he likes his  women curvy and with sass. Their scenes are always funny to watch, and she needs to stop with the games. No wonder why he is always hassling her.

1. Alejandro and Heather:

I like everything about this couple, from their interactions, to their small arguing, to the denial, everything. It is clear why they like one another; they have the same mindset, and are attractive. They were gunning for each other to get eliminated in WT because they are threats, but slowly start falling for one another, but want the money more. It is funny that even in All-Stars they feel a certain way when neither texted one another. They are very competitive, but I don't like the way she was eliminated though. Watching them in the finale was very interesting. You can tell they were overacting with being lovey dovey, but they are happy together without losing their personalities and identities.They are enjoyable, investible as a couple, deliciously evil and screwed up, and THEY are what interested me into Total Drama All Stars.

Total Drama: Pahkitew Island Review
Well, Total Drama: Pahkitew Island is over, and if you have read my review of all 13 episodes, you would know that I think the characters mostly used as gimmicks. I think that this season’s biggest issue is that so many of them seem like one season wonders, and the small minor details in storyline building holds it back from being more than good or decent. Yall know that I am gonna cover the fodders first.

 Beardo: Well, I was slightly annoyed with Beardo. He made unnecessary sound noises, and did not really help his team that much, and he SCREAMS fodder. I am glad he was the first eliminated, but I do not view as a character, so I do not think much of him, and he is………bleh.





Leonard : Leonard is delusional; I am not even kidding. He seriously thinks he has magic, he seriously thinks that he lives in the land of Disney, where you believe, and magic will appear. His voice sounds like he has a bunch of mothballs stuck in his throat, and his nostrils are very small. Not only is his design ugly and pathetic, but he is irritating, not funny, and just plain grating to watch.

Amy: Holy f**k, I never imagined to hate someone in such a short amount of time than I did before being introduced to lamey Amy. There is literally nothing to like about her. She literally has no purpose other than to bother her sister. She does not help in challenges because she is an untalented waste of scum, and puts herself above everyone else. It would be okay if she had DEPTH to her, to make her bi**ha**ness and sociopath-ness more deal able, but she does not. And I don’t f with someone who is so willing to literally encourage at the moment for their family to die. She literally interacts with no one but Samey. Pathetic and lame all the way. Congratulations Fresh, you wanted a mean, flat as a pancake b**ch, you delivered. Rodney: Rodney is unlikable in the way that he is a painful gimmick, and a painful gimmick only. I already got tired of his gigantic self and his gigantic gimmick from the moment I saw his audition. He needs to learn to speak properly, and to not be delusional. He is another contestant that is seriously delusional, and it is very scary that he thinks that he is officially dating someone he never spoke to. Anyways, he was useless for the entire season, and was an annoying mess to watch. Glad this gimmick was gone in the quarter way mark.

 I decided not to put Samey in the “fodder” category, because she actually had a plot going for her, and grew. I like how she was a bit weak at first, and her growing friendship with Jasmine, which was a nice aspect for the earlier episodes of the season, but her plot revolved entirely around her sister. When she finally snapped in Episode 3, I was cheering for her, but…….the entire “Twin Switcheroo” plot is executed horribly. How is it that when Amy was eliminated, they looked like their normal selves (and NO ONE told the other apart when they have been around them for a few episodes) but no one could tell that Samey was lying when she pretended to be Amy. This is a bigger issue because she DISGUISES HERSELF as Amy by putting a blueberry on her face. I already described it into detail in my episode reviews, but they took out so much logic to make this plot work, and it really ended up going nowhere anyways. Her and her sister are dependent on one another, and everything they do revolve around that issue (even her friendship with Jasmine is about her conflict with Amy).

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;"> While I would love to put Topher in the “fodder” category, he lasted 8 episodes, and did have a plot going for him. His stereotype is literally “Chris Wannabee”. How in the hell is that even as stereotype? Just from that I know that his entire existence will revolve around Chris. My issue with Topher is that he is completely irrelevant to the game. He literally did nothing in half of his episodes (in the LEAST), and did not interact with a single person (other than Jasmine, to compete in a challenge, but it was still minor). How is it that someone that spoke to virtually no one and did virtually nothing make it past the half way point? Is he putting up in the production room? Anyways, his “replace Chris as host” plot was not interesting or engaging to me, because we all know that it won’t happen, and the result from it way before the plot fully starts.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;">

<p class="MsoNormal"> I feel like it is appropriate to lump Ella and Sugar together. Ella and Sugar had this intense one sided conflict (on Sugar’s side), because she feels like Ella is trying to get more attention, and is more pageant like than she is. At first I did not mind it, but then Sugar started to go way over the top, and it was not funny in any way. Ella did literally nothing to warrant her wanting her to die, but Ella is voted off before things got overly brutal and ridiculous. I will get into Sugar’s performance after Ella’s departure after, but move onto Ella. I have said this from the beginning, and I will say it now. Why would I want Ella, when there is the REAL Snow White? I am not saying that Ella is bad, and I do not really mind her, but she is a knock off and a gimmick. Her singing does get annoying at times, but is also very pleasant at other moments as well. She sung with animals, and basically did everything Snow White did but cook. Ella also had this minor attraction to Dave in Episode 5 and 6, and I am glad they did not engage into it too much, as she fell in love with him from the Cinderella moment, but Dave putting her shoe on him. She soon finds out in the next episode that he does not like her like that. She is soon disqualified, and her elimination is great. Now onto Sugar’s performance in the second half of her duration (her last 6 episodes) where I will summarize her as overly gross, overly grating, overly dumb, and overly unentertaining. She was a bunch of fart, poop, and food jokes, but also trying to be an antagonist. She was ridiculous, and got even more painful as each episode went. She is like an icon for TDPI, and is the new Owen, so I would be expecting her to return again. Her elimination was great for her though.

Now onto Max and Scarlett’s duo plot. Now that I really think about it, they are really the only people they have a significant interaction with. Anyways, Max went around saying he is overly evil as soon as we see him, and tries to come up with evil inventions, which ultimately fails. Scarlett assists him, and makes many of his machines work, and spends a lot of time talking to him. They get along great for the first few episodes, but there is an issue; Max sees Scarlett as his assistant, whereas Scarlett is the real brains behind the duo. Scarlett eventually gets mad at him referring to her as an assistant, and letting her think of their plans, that in Episode 6, she orchestrates his elimination. I really wish Max went with Ella in this episode, but I will dive into that a bit later and my small issue with them. People on the island think they are a couple, which came out of nowhere, but still a bit funny. Max and Scarlett’s duo continues to fall apart in Episodes 7-9, but things take a turn for the worst in their final episode, as Scarlett reveals that she really is evil, and was about to blow up the island and kill everyone, just to get the million dollars. I never found Max funny or engaging, as his gimmick got old fast, and while I do like Scarlett, I really wish they gave her more episodes to do something evil and antagonistic. With it all taking place in one episode makes it a bit cluttered. They are eliminated together, because Chris does not want evil on his island.

Now it is time for the extremely major plot points of the season; the two attractions in this season, but I will start with Sky and Dave. Dave quickly falls for Sky in about Episode 1 or 2, and considers her to be the only other normal person on his team. His attraction to her becomes known when she calms him down form having grease all over him. Sky soon realizes that he has a crush on her, but she is not on the island to meet boys, but to win the money. In the next episode, she is gawking about his hair, eyes, and smile, and he is gawking about her eyes, and…pretty much everything. They do speak to one another, and she does tell him why she wants to be an Olympian, and their interactions in the first 5 episodes or so are really cute. Sky tells him that they cannot go out because she is there for the competition, and something else, but here is the problem. Dave almost NEVER listens to her and takes in what she is saying. He always cuts her off, leave things out, or throws an insult (accidental or not). This will come to bite him in the ass because not only does it frustrate Sky, but he LOSES IT when he finds out that she has a boyfriend (revealed in the finale). Dave is actually pretty selfish, and always thinks he is entitled and better than everyone else, whether it is his teammates or Sky. I liked him in the beginning, but he went downhill with how he handled everything, and his obsession with Sky. I get it when you have a crush, but he is too creepy, too obsessed, and does not focus on ANYTHING else, like the game. He even goes onto say that nothing is important but Sky and her NEEDING to go out with him. His germ phobia is pretty damn funny at times, and it does give him an extra something to his character. Now onto Sky. She wants to be an Olympian, and is all about teamwork and being a good leader, and winning fairly. This is an honorable trait, and she does honor this most of the time, with the no foul play thing, with the exception of Three Zones and a Baby, where she does it to not be distracted by Dave. Even after Dave is gone, she is really focused on Dave and what happened to him. Because she is in this mind state, she is pretty much a non-factor or irrelevant in the next few episodes after his elimination, with only her last minute conflict with Sugar bringing focus to her. She KNEW she has a boyfriend, but went in the confessional to gawk over ANOTHER MAN, flirt incessantly with the other man, and attempts to kiss the other man, to only kiss him in the finale. Yes, she tried to tell Dave, but she slapped her boyfriend (who she KNEW he would be watching) in the face with all of this. Disgusting. Their non-relationship did give the show drama though.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;"> Lastly are the main (and only) couple of the season; Jasmine and Shawn. I was honestly a bit worried with how this was going to go, but when I saw their interactions in the woods in the second and third episode, I was pleasantly surprised. They are adventurists, like the forest and the outdoors, both have great survival skills, and both sleep on trees. I really like their interactions, and I was a total shipper. Shawn suddenly does not want to like her, because it will distract his focus to get rid of zombies, and he might turn into a zombie -_-. I get it that there are zombie conspires out there, but Shawn takes it to a WHOLE nother level, a scary and delusional level, and this is throughout the entire season, and it is not even funny to watch. So Jasmine is shown to overly care about Shawn getting eliminated in Episode 5, but when he is shown to have not been missing, he yells at her, calling her a zombie as he hits her off the platform. This small event causes her to hate him for 4 EPISODES. They really dragged this out, and it did get a bit annoying. She was going to throw the challenge for him anyways. I get it that for some reason she thinks that he was an opportunist and only built up her feelings so he can take her down, but it does come off as really contrived. They make up in Episode 9, as he saves her from the other “zombies” and sacrifices himself for her, and it is a cute moment. In Episode 10 and 11, their relationship is in a really good place, as they share their first kiss, and work together through the challenges. When Jasmine tells him about her dream about a half flower and half cage fighting shop, and that they should split the money for whoever wins, he bashes her dream in the confessional many times, and says that he is not splitting his money with her because he wants it to build an area to escape zombies. This causes a bit of drama for the last episode, but they make up. Jasmine is a really good character. She is very kicka**, and nice, but she is also unintentionally intimidating, is claustrophobic, and has notable flaws. Shawn’s zombie thing gets really annoying at times but otherwise, he is a good character as well.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;"> I have said before, I like this season. I really do. The storylines were handled decently (though there are a few small mistakes that could have been avoided that makes some of them crash and burn), the characters had many more interactions amongst the cast, creating an interesting dynamic, the challenges were pretty good, there is a lot of effort put into the season, and it is fun at times. What I will say I that it is hard for me to like most of these characters, as with the way they are written, they are written like on season wonders (though many will be in future seasons), and are too gimmicky for my liking. The little things caused big issues (to me) in the season. Not one of my favourites, but not one of my least favs either.

Total Drama: All Stars Review
I was excited for this season (though knew it was a mere excuse to have the screenhogs from both generations to be together). This season dissapointed me on many levels, though there were a few <span class="v76710v" id="v76710v_2" style="border-width:1px;border-style:solid;border-top-color:transparent;border-right-color:transparent;border-left-color:transparent;list-style:none;float:none;text-decoration:underline;color:rgb(0,153,0);cursor:pointer;display:inline!important;">good things  about it. I am gonna go over all of the characters, storylines, and all of that.

Lindsay : There is not really much to say about her. Though I knew she was a fodder for <span class="v76710v" id="v76710v_7" style="border-width:1px;border-style:solid;border-top-color:transparent;border-right-color:transparent;border-left-color:transparent;list-style:none;float:none;text-decoration:underline;color:rgb(0,153,0);cursor:pointer;display:inline!important;">elimination  before the show even aired, she was really lazy in the episode she was in. All of her story arcs were finished (relationship with Tyler, being somewhat smart, Beth), so I am kind of glad she left early. There was not anything else to do with her, and she made it far in the first 2 seasons.



Lightning : How is it even possible for him to be even more flat and annoying than <span class="v76710v" id="v76710v_5" style="border-width:1px;border-style:solid;border-top-color:transparent;border-right-color:transparent;border-left-color:transparent;list-style:none;float:none;text-decoration:underline;color:rgb(0,153,0);cursor:pointer;display:inline!important;">he  was last season? Wouldn't he have been more revengeful for losing and <span class="v76710v" id="v76710v_3" style="border-width:1px;border-style:solid;border-top-color:transparent;border-right-color:transparent;border-left-color:transparent;list-style:none;float:none;text-decoration:underline;color:rgb(0,153,0);cursor:pointer;display:inline!important;">his  father being disappointed in him (which was only brought up in the finale of that season and never mentioned before or afterwards). But he was all about his muscles and arrogance. Thank the LORD he left as soon as he did.



Jo : I think she is the one of the only one to be the same character she was in a previous season. Still the cut-throat, overly tough and <span class="v76710v" id="v76710v_8" style="border-width:1px;border-style:solid;border-top-color:transparent;border-right-color:transparent;border-left-color:transparent;list-style:none;float:none;text-decoration:underline;color:rgb(0,153,0);cursor:pointer;display:inline!important;">competitive  girl, and her minor conflict with Heather was entertaining enough. Threw Lightning under the bus after <span class="v76710v" id="v76710v_6" style="border-width:1px;border-style:solid;border-top-color:transparent;border-right-color:transparent;border-left-color:transparent;list-style:none;float:none;text-decoration:underline;color:rgb(0,153,0);cursor:pointer;display:inline!important;">making a deal with him, and her talk is better than her game (a bit pathetic as to how she was eliminated and now that I am thinking about it, her talk was as good as her game last season...).



Sam : I barely even remember him being in the season (probably cause he was a bad fit to be in the season), less so than his eliminated predecessors. I do remember him being the <span class="v76710v" id="v76710v_1" style="border-width:1px;border-style:solid;border-top-color:transparent;border-right-color:transparent;border-left-color:transparent;list-style:none;float:none;text-decoration:underline;color:rgb(0,153,0);cursor:pointer;display:inline!important;">punching bag  of slapstick humor until his elimination, his game console breaking being a non-factor, and him cheating which led to him going home. He had no storyline and was extremely forgettable.

Now that the elimination fodders that had no storyline are gone...We are going to settle and talk about the storylines chronologically.

The first storyline that was completed was Duncan and Gwen. They both were happy by the time TDWT ended, and were locking lips at the boat scene in TDROTI. Now Gwen is starting to get unsatisfied by Duncan, who desperately wants attention and to make Courtney jealous, as she is ignoring him who has been her friend since TDA for Courtney's forgiveness. At first, she wanted Duncan to tell Courtney to stop glaring at her, but he did not care since it did not involve him -_-. I don't see why at this point he wants Courtney's attention and I WOULD be more invested in Gwen's storyline more if her and Courtney had a friendship in TDWT like Leshawna and Gwen did, or Bridgette and Courtney, but that is not the case (they were friend-ish). Duncan saves her from being shot in the third challenge, but does not care that he got dumped 3 episodes later -_-, really? The actual breakup scene is extremely rushed and lacked any explanation. Duncan is struggling with his good guy actions, and ultimately going to jail for proving that he is still a badboy. While Duncan is one of my least favourites, I will give him that he did not annoy me much this season.



Now let's move on to Alejandro and Heather. In the second episode (after she was shocked by his return and the uncomfortable feeling of the robot), they both felt a way when neither bothered to text each other since TDWT (ignoring the scene where he is hugging her on the boat scene in TDROTI), and I found this very interesting. They tried to manipulate one another's feelings to bother one another and to see if they care (with him ignoring her, and her being extremely nice in that Moon challenge). This was very interesting and liked how they interacted, seeing it lead up into them finally going together, but then Episode 6 happened. They form an alliance so they can vote one another off. Heather finds the immunity idol, and after she hides it, he finds it and uses it for himself after she convinced everyone in the team to vote for Alejandro. His vote only counted, meaning she was gone. He proposed to go steady at the Flush of Shame, but she refuses in anger of being voted off. She did not really do anything other than that, and Al's plot with Mal will be discussed later, if you counted his arrogance after she left a plot. So this storyline which clearly had some importance got thrown under the rug so badly, though they are now together in the finale, but the point is still there.



Sierra 's Cam-Cody fiasco. I was looking forward to her returning the most, and seeing her do her independent thang in the first 2-3 episodes was really getting me interested, liking where it was going. She was more cooperative, less obsessively crazy, and more authentic moments (especially with Cameron). Then her phone broke, with her sanity, as she became more and more delusional, thinking the others were Cody, calling and treating Cameron like Cody, acting creepier and more whiny than she EVER was, and was even stalking Cameron when he switched teams. In the end of TDWT, she was more calm, likable and all, and they continued that for the first few episodes, but then her plot turned back to Cody when he was NOT EVEN THERE. Speaking of Cameron, he annoyed me in the last episode. He was friendly enough to share his money with the entire cast of ROTI, and used his intellect of facts instead of cunningness to win but in his last episode, he followed Mike's disgusting plan to break Scottney up by kissing Courtney. How would he not know something was up with Mike when he studied him ALL LAST SEASON, and he would feel extremely guilty for having to do something like that,. This act kind of derailed him in some ways, and brought him down as a character to me.

Now here is where the major plotlines start, and here is the one I dread the most.

They are my least favourite couple for many reasons. First, it came right out of nowhere. She asks for an ally which really goes nowhere, than an episode later she says something is missing in her life and conveniently a Scott bird shows up -_-. He likes her because she is pretty and bosses him around; WHAT, he LOVED being in control and got mad when he was controlled or had no power in ROTI, where did this come from. Anyways, she likes him because.................. no explanation, and they start caring for one another in an episode. Another reason why this does not work is because they have no genuine interactions with one another (their first kiss was extremely contrived and awkward in a bad way). There are no bonding moments for them, no substance, nothing. Not only does the couple not make sense, but the circumstances of the Cam-Courtney kiss is weird too. Why would she run up and kiss Cameron after her and Scott fell into the ditch, and he is right beside her? Wasn't she making fun of Cameron a few episodes prior? So they break up and hook back up, though he is still clearly upset through the next episode. In her last episode of the season (easily the worst of the entire season), she makes the chart, showing him as a rat. He is pissed at that and wants to vote for her, because he is sick of her trifling ways. After she is gone, he misses her and says she was not bad -_-. This couple makes no (...use your imagination...) sense.



Now that I already started talking about Courtney, might as well finish off her other plot ; Gwen. I never really gave two cents about the whole triangle thing, and never understood why people said "Oh, why would she do that to her best friend?"; they were not even friends (friend-ish, but not friends). So for the first 3-4 episodes, Gwen tries to apologize to Courtney, but it seems like she is tampering with her evilly. Gwen apparently misses their friendship (twitches eye) as she ignores her biggest friend since TDA. So from around Episode 5-7, Courtney is slowly starting to like Gwen again, and their friendship is official in Episode 8. They start to act extremely girly and stuff which would be fine, but neither of them are really that girly; they are not Katie and Sadie. Since when do they care about one another's looks? They are happy they are BFFS but the Cameron kiss puts a halt to it, since Gwen thinks Court is a hypocrite. Courtney later talks to her and they are all good....for an episode. Court's chart has Gwen 3rd place, making her upset and has no friends. Gwen asks Courtney to vote for herself to prove their friendship means something to them, and NOTHING IS EXPLAINED. I can not even believe they were not in the finale. Another plot point gone down the toilet with little to no explanation. I am not even going to mention the derailment of the two characters and the inconsistencies.

Now we are at the most prominent and least interesting plotlines of the season; Zoey 's relationship troubles with Mike thanks to Mal, and Mal himself. So Mike and Zoey are extremely happy with one another, and he embraces his MPD. They are good for the first 2 episodes, until Scott hits him over the head, causing Mal to erupt. Mal starts to break things like Sam's game console, Sierra's phone, and more and Mike has trouble changing personalities. This happens up until like mid-season. During this time, Duncan recognized Mal as the head honcho of the juvie he was in, which leads to more questions than answers. HOW did Mal end up in prison? HOW did Mike deal with Mal for these years? WHAT is Mal's ultimate goal? WHAT about a backstory to Mike period? Anyways, Ducnan warns Zoey, as she has her doubts too, but she chooses to ignore them, and that is....it with Duncan and Mal juvie thing. Anyways, Zoey is winning challenge after challenge, god-playing (this makes somewhat sense with Al and Sierra because they at least EXPLAIN their surprise skills they have), with no explanation to where she got these skills from. Mal takes control from Mike permanently in Episode 8, creating an alliance with Alejandro, and making Cameron his next target. So Al finds out about Mal being evil via sneaking into the production room, and hides the evidence that Mal tries to plant on him that he rigged the votes for Cameron to go home. This puts him on Mal's hit list, and he fights to remain in the game. He warns Zoey, who is too mad that he did whatever he did, and believing that thanks to Mal. So that is 2 people who warned her so far. Anyways, she eventually finds out about the disk and FINALLY knows that Mal is controlling Mike. Not only are they extremely bland, and you don't give two cents about them, but there are so many loopholes and unexplained things. So the finale comes and Mike wins -_-. I know I skipped a few things with them, but their blandness and all of the other frustrating ish above about the season are tiring me out. Mike's entire plot and backstory has no explanations, Zoey becomes the biggest Mary-Sue in Total Drama, and....... (goes crazy in room). I am so sick of these two.

This season has so many problems; derailment of characters, awful continuity, lack of explanations, abrupt storylines ending quicker than a wink. This season had potential, but took every flaw from TDI, TDA, TDWT, and TDROTI and made them worse. This season is the failure of Total Drama. I use to dislike TDROTI, but the ONE thing this season taught me is to appreciate TDROTI (I should watch that to calm myself down). Good things about it.......... AleHeather are together, those one-liners are funny sometimes, there is no winning and losing streak of teams, and the triangle is FINALLY put to rest. I needed to vent.

Total Drama Revenge of the Island Review
<p style="font-size:14px;">When Total Drama Revenge of the Island aired, I was not feeling it like I was the other 3 seasons, and it was NOT because they had an all new cast. A majority of it had to do with the 13 episode format that it introduced to the series. Another was because of the lack of interaction between the characters and the fact that a majority of them are flat and underdeveloped. After watching Total Drama All Stars, I learned to appreciate this season A LOT more quality and entertainment-wise. Let's start with the eliminaiton fodders.

<p style="font-size:14px;">

<p style="font-size:14px;">Staci : She was literally made for us to be annoyed with her so she can leave and no one will miss her, and in that retrospective, a job well done. All she does is say that her family made and invented everything, which are all lies. She is a bad joke.

<p style="font-size:14px;">

<p style="font-size:14px;">B : Well a common complaint about him is that he is a godplayer and silent, and.........that is cotrect. He is flatter than a pancake (personality wise, not physically) and only there to irritate Scott enough to be his first target. Next.

<p style="font-size:14px;">

<p style="font-size:14px;">Dawn : Yes, while she lasted 5 episodes (equivalent of 10 episodes in a 26 episode season format), she does not have a story arc. She reads a few people's auras (Dakota, Zoey, Mike, Scott, Brick), and helps in challenges  but the problem is, she is to give insight on others and not herself. Her aura and her wicca stuff are interesting, but never adds any depth to her or make her more important to the show.

<p style="font-size:14px;">I am gonna cover the storylines buy the amount of importance and focus it gets, so I am gonna read Lightning now.

<p style="font-size:14px;">

<p style="font-size:14px;">One of my issues with Lightning is that he is a finalist, but had no plot (except his conflict with Jo and Cameron), but the issue is that those plots last 2-3 episodes at the most. I guess it is to make him an antagonist after Scott left, but the exeution is really bad. For the other 8 episodes, he does absolutely nothing but be a bad comic relief and stay under the radar. His Jo-guy thing got old really fast, and lasted from episode 7-10, so he has half a season of doing nothing. Him not being given any depth until the finale where they expose him consantly trying to impress his dad (which was ONLY brought up in the finale and never mentioned again) does not help. He should left way before he did.

<p style="font-size:14px;">Now that I brought up Jo, might as well get her and her plots over with (conflict with Brick and Cameron).

<p style="font-size:14px;">When I originally saw her, I thought she was gonna be a carbon copy of Eva and in some ways, she is. The difference is that Jo is more calm, a strategist, and a bit insecure about her sexuality, giving her some depth. Her and Brick bump heads because they are strong competitors, extremely athletic, and wants to be in control. There are certain things that implicate that they hae a minor attraction, but they focus on the healthy competition. The difference between the two of them is that Brick is a lot more noble (being his downfall in the competition) and Jo is more cut-hroat and underhanded. The conflict between the two is very well done. Brick is easily the most interesting character of the cast (though he is not supposed to be coughMikeandZoeyCough). He wnats to be in control and tough because he was picked on a lot in his childhood, but is noble instead of agressive, which ultimately makes him the better person. These two have more depth than most of the cast.

<p style="font-size:14px;">I thought of talking about Cameron `s conflicft with Jo above, but it is more about Cameron`s character than Jo`s. Cameron`s entire arc is about him making it out int he real world and out of his bubble and mother, which si done well enough... I guess. The biggest thorn to this arc is Jo, who constantly taunts him about being weak and will never make it through the season (meaning he will of course win). She uses and abuses him, until he catches on and votes her off with Lightning; beating her at ehr own game of throwing people under the bus. His conflict with Lightning in the last 2 episodes do not work because they never interacted until episode 10, and Lightning never wanted to get at Cameorn until Episode 11 where eh stole his invincibility (after he broke his promise to Cameron). Cameron is fascinated with butterflies, biology, and psychology, which helps him study Mike and finds out about MPD. My only issue with him is that he never really had a conflict with how harsh things were for him, or it was not that focused upon.

<p style="font-size:14px;">

<p style="font-size:14px;">I think it is the right time to talk about Dakota and Sam. While I do like the concept of them, it seems to lack substance. So their first interaction happens in the 2nd episode where he htis on her and tries to impress her, while she thinks he is weird and unattractive. So she is voted out in said episode and comes back an episode later as Chris`intern. Now she is suddnely attracted to him....okay. In the 4th episode, he falls into a hole she dug up, and a bunch of animals eat him up as she walks away, not liking the feeling of guilt. He asks her for fashion advice in the 6th episode; they beocme a couple in episode 8. Apparently the base fo thie relationship is about them being technially dependant on technology -_-; I think the issue pseaks fo ritself. As individual characters, Sam is kind of a generic video game addict, but Dakota is better than I thought. She is a spoiled princess, but is not a witch and does not want daddy to do everything for her. She has big plans and plans outside fo Total Drama, using it as a platform to do anything involving fame (one of the only outside of Heather to do this). She is one of the better charactes of the flat cast.

<p style="font-size:14px;">

<p style="font-size:14px;">Let's talk about this season's antagonist Scott. It's like he is supposed to be a serious, imtimidating antagonist, but also a silly one (thanks to the Shark gag). So his method is to sabotage his team at each challenge and frames the other contestants to get the team to vote off said target. This plan is unique compared to his predecessors who formed alliances and manipulated others, and actually trying to win challenges. This si alright but he does not clean up his plan as well as he thought, and wouldn't people find his lack of effort in challenges, and constantly accusng others of sabotage and other things; catching on to hsi suspicious behaviour. Well no one thinks he is bad except for Dawn (who he gets rid of), and Zoey. Mike and Cameon had a bad feeling about him, but nothing more. As a character, he is not he is not one we love to hate because he is not that deceptive or engaging. We get little comments about him being a farmer, but it adds no depth to him. At least he was intimidating enough here and his plan worked, as he became so different on his second season. He is smack dab in the middle of the antagonists.

<p style="font-size:14px;">

<p style="font-size:14px;">And now we get to the dreaded love triangle. So when we first see the couple Mike and Zoey, they are already heavily flirting with one another. The only thing we know they have in common is that they like action movies -_-. It is glaringly obvious that they are supposed to be the second generation replica of Gwen and Trent, but the difference is that Gwen and Trent are not entirely (for Trent I said entirely) dependant on one another and have interesting things about them individually. Both of them though are extremely bland and boring, barely having substance. Actually, Zoey 's is about her being alone all her life and stuff, being a small town girl, but that gets focus in like the first 2 episodes, and her final episode; being completely overshadowed by her relationship with Mike. This relationship composes of her being a damsel in distress, always geting saved by Mike (and being the only trigger for him to regian comtrol of his body -_-.) How can you have 2 people who have 1% of substance and expect an engaging relationship. The other thing that gets in the way of being with her is his personality disorder. He has 4 other personalities (ALL more interesting than Mike), and he can not control it, so he lies and gets Cameron to help him cover it from Zoey, which makes her minorly not trust him. I have mentioned many times that the portralal of MPD is deplorable, so next.

<p style="font-size:14px;">

<p style="font-size:14px;">I know that is not Vito, but whatever. So the incompetent relatoinship of Vito (The Situation) and Anne Maria (Snooki) is about her thinking Mike is an act, as Vito only appeared when they were alone (false). This is to create drama, but even 3 year olds know how this will turn out, since Vto is an asset fo Mike. As soon as she is gone, it is never settled properly and dissappears. Anne Maria herself is all about her looks and being tough. She is neither antagonistic or selfless, but she has a few moments of where she shows concern and appreciation of others. She is more interesting than the 2 above, but has absolutely no substance, and is a flat character to be a mere plot device. This entire plot was handled badly.

<p style="font-size:14px;">

<p style="font-size:14px;">My biggest issue with this season is that it lacked any heart and substance. It is hard to get invested when there is practically nothing to invest in that is not black and white. Despite that, most of the plotlines are concluded properly, it is consistant, there are no derailment of characters, and some developed. Also, there is no bond with the cast, and barely any interaction between them that could build into osmething mroe (conflict, friendship, or relationship). While it is kind of entertaning and did wrap up the main storylines properly, the characters were developed and likable (only some of them), things were clear that they were not the same from the earlier days of the series.

Total Drama World Tour Review
This season is known to be the second best season of the entire series (some say it is the best). It is definitely drama-filled, which could be used as a complaint. They spiced it up with adding 2 new contestants and a grown woman to the show. There are some consistency issues as well as it getting too dark at times, but the story lines are held well. Now to the elimination fodders.



Ezekiel: It is extremely sad as to what happened to him. He was at first a hip-hop wannabe (from the TDA special), but still annoyed his fellow campers. After he got voted off, he stayed on the plane for the entire season to get the money, though he never leaves the cargo hold or try to bargain. He eventually turns into Feral Zeke, not knowing how to speak and barely human. This is so backwards development.



Harold: He did a whole lot of nothing on his time this season. He annoyed everyone with his knowledgable facts. He was convinced to quit by Alejandro because he let his team down. He feels a way when LeShawna flirts with Al, but he still has a hold on her. Him and LeShawna flirt a lot after they are eliminated.



Bridgette: She really needs to stop thinking with her hormones. Anyways, she is originally sad about Geoff not being there (for half an episode) and then she does not miss him at all, because she is too busy fantasizing about Alejandro. So she cheats on him (after she hit him when he looked at a girl) and her male mistress gets her voted off, being reduced as one of Alejandro's pawns. Her and Geoff resolve everything and they are closer to their TDI selves. Not her best season.



LeShawna: This season is easily her worst season. She was seen as the leader of her team in a few challenges, but she got too carried away with it. She missed Harold a bit when he left (playing with his yoyos), but she (like Bridgette) thought with her hormones and listened to everything Alejandro said, about seizing the day. This causes her to beat up Heather for no reason. She now thinks all men but Harold are bad, and it will not be shocking if they got together. She was too full of herself this season.



I guess I should do DJ now, though he is not necessarily a fodder, as he had his own plot. He was really annoying this season; whining more than anything, not helping his teammates as much as he could have, and became extremely irritating to watch. He got wimpier and wimpier as each season went, while he was at least honorable in the other 2 seasons, here, he became more and more of a crybaby. I am glad that he is gone, but he was not really that memorable to begin with.

These two were the most forgettable characters in this season; I am dead serious. Izzy did absolutely nothing for most of her time on the season. She fawned over Alejandro in the Germany challenge, and broke up with Owen. I guess she was the exact same as the other two seasons, but she was the character that was in the background the most out of the entire cast. Owen was forgettable too, he was just.....there. Sure he had his friendship with Noah, but other than that, he was the target of Alejandro's annoyance and him hurling insults. What I MUST discuss though is their poor break-up. Thanks to executive meddling, the most consistent couple in Total Drama broke up out of nowhere, when a few episodes earlier, they were shown to be extremely happy. There was no suspense or buildup to it in previous episodes, and it is never mentioned again. I don't see the point of them breaking up; At all.



Now it is their turn. Lindsay now thinks Tyler will never return and when she sees him, she calls him a bunch of other names. He gets disappointed and a but mad at this, since she starts to get impressed by Alejandro. Somthing suddenly starts itching in her brain, sand she suddenly remembers him, making him more than thrilled. They are now back, and they want to be around one another non-stop. Their interactions for the next 2 episodes are in character and very nice, but of course she has to be booted in Paris.She is still in his mind, and they seem to be very intimate after his eliminaiton. As individuals, Lindsay was the saving grace in Team Victory after Bridgette left, and became somewhat fo a leader; almost winning a challenge all by herself. She was pretty cool and typical her this season. Tyler was pretty developed more so than before here too; he is very daring, a daredevil (though not as good at it), a likable man that most get along with, and is strong, but clumsy. He proved that he can hold his own as a character, which I could not say for Trent if he was ever without Gwen. He was also the plot device to blow the secret about Duncan and Gwen's affair, not being able to keep secrets.



Noah did alright this season. He was very sarcastic and not as lazy as he was in TDI. He does not put up with a lot, and proven to be very entertaining. He was more of a team player, and proved to be of help to his team. His friendship with Owen showed that he is not that bad of a person, and his beef with Alejandro was fun enough. Though he did not last too long because he had no plot really. The way he was ousted SUCKS. They should have won, and Duncan should not have been allowed to vote, since he just came there. It was like Chris wanted Noah to go home.



Great, now it is time to talk about the love triangle that split the fandom for 3 years. In the beginning of the season, both Courtney and Gwen have feelings for Duncan, while he is too annoyed with everything for us to see if be likes either at this point. Their bickering and them having to sing causes him to quit in the first episode. While he is gone, they click over wanting to get rid of Heather initially. They then start to become tolerable acquaintances in the London challenges, when they bind over the research they both did on Jack the Ripper. This is very realistic and in character for both of them to bind over. Also, they both think they see Duncan a few challenges prior, which only makes Courtney's suspicions about Gwen grow. As characters, both were pretty well at this point; Courtney was a lot more calmer and was a team player, and Gwen was learning to work with her team, and getting closer to Cody. Both were entertaining and likeable. Then Duncan returns. Why could they not have put him on Team Victory initially and have this mess of a love triangle okay out there, and he be the last player of the team to be eliminated? But NO, he HAS to make it far AGAIN. So they bring Duncan back to the plane for reasons unknown, and Chris seems them the winner because they found Duncan -_-. So Courtney lectures Duncan about skipping out and bailing out on his responsibilities, which gets him upset, but she hugs him and says she just missed him. He looks at Gwen while hugging her, saying that he missed her or something like that; Im paraphrasing. He knows she is in the confessional and opens it, causing her to get butterflies all over. He grabs her hand and they lean to have a long kiss, which Tyler witnesses. Instead of skin the honourable thing and break up with her, he threatens to beat Tyler up if he spills, meaning he was pretty much thinking of having both. Well, him and Gwen sing about what to do, but she finds out in the same episode and dumps Duncan. Duncan and Gwen (who felt little to no remorse or care since she almost had a mental breakdown when she found Heather and Trent kissing) officially hook up. They hate Courtney and Courtney hates them. Gwen looks really bad, Courtney is extremely whiny, extremely pathetic, and to be honest, this entire thing makes them all unlikable (which I thought was impossible to make Duncan more unlikable).

Now we talk about Sierra and Cody's plot. Sierra is a Total Drama blogger and knows everything about everything on Total Drama, and they do play with that, but they focus MUCH more on her obsession with Cody. What I find interesting about this is that Cody is obsessed as well to Gwen and wants a girl to fawn all over him. Sierra starts to steal his belongings and sniffs it and his body, creeping the crap out of him. This causes him to vote for her each and very single time whenever he is at an elimination. She cried initially when this happened, but as this continued, she blocked it out. Around the merge, she starts saying that they are married and such, and makes him drink a love potion (which only makes him sick). Around the end I the competition, they become friendly with one another and he considers her one of his closest friends (since they can have an actual and decent conversation when she is calm). This did not feel rushed of contrived actually. My only issue with this is that it develops Sierra a lot more than it develops Cody; he never really does anything on his own, barely helps his team, did not form other relationships (he did become closer to Gwen at the end of her one on the show though), and Sierra helped him through the competition ALL THE WAY THROUGH and as soon as she could not help him any more, he is eliminated. He was still enjoyable and likeable, but did not get as much development as I thought he would. Sierra can be a bit too much at times, but she did not deserve what she got at the end of the season. At least she is better now.



Oh, I forgot about Blaineley. She is not Blainerific. Dramatic, ruthless, but not Blainerific. NEXT.

Now here are the two who carried the season. Alejandro is kind of an expy of Justin, but the difference between the two is that Alsjandro is not acraid of getting down and dirty, and he is very educated and uses his brains to carry him through a majority of the time. He gets rid of a majority of the contestants by his quick thinking. He is the typical Spanish hottie. He is not afraid of getting a bruise and constantly worrying about his looks like Justin does. Anyways, he used his charm and seductions to get further with the ladies, but he uses charisma to win over some of the males. He was seen as a team player which made people like him (unlike Justin). He is very talented, and is the son of a diplomat and an educated family. His insecurity about his brother gives him depth as well. A downfall to him is that he is a villain sue. He is constantly given these traits out of a random just so he can have the upper hand compared to others, but what I will say is that at least it is explained by him learning from his highly skilled family (unlike Zoey where it has NO explanation). While being a villain is not into play, his other plot is Heather. He knows she is smart and is onto him, but he becomes attracted to her because they are so much alike, and he likes a challenge. He tries to seduce her (to which she declines) but when something happens to the other, they feel a way and worried about one another. They got jealous when the other is flirting with the other, and they have some weird friction between them. They then get to a point where everyone knows they like one another and they both deny it, getting annoyed with people saying that and them acting too much alike. They slowly become the only ones in the competition and they battle it out, but she gets sad that he is about to leave her life and they have a moment where they declare their love for one another, until she chooses the money over him. This is greatly written. Heather is put into the position of being the hero (though she was manipulative and went back into her roots). Her conflicts with the others have grown, and she is not the ultimate target like she was in the previous season. This season made me like her A LOT more, giving another side to her. Most of her plot I already discussed.



While there are some issues with the season (some players changing characters too much, a lot more people godplaying, the dark theme that took everyone on the last half of the season, all of the storylines are eventually wrapped up properly (the love triangle being debatable), and it improved on most of the characters. It is more consistent and enjoyable than the other three.

Total Drama Action Review
So, this season is seen as the worst season overall, for being boring, non dramatic, and it leads up to nothing except for Gwen and Trent, and....... that is kind of true. We have for the most part, the same characters that made it far in TDI and if they were not derailed, they had a bunch of plot points that were resolved so quickly, making it seem like nothing was going on in the show. It als does not help that everythig that happened here was dropped in the future seasons.

Bridgette and Geoff were voted off first in the season, but they did have their own plot in the aftermaths. Initially, they were reduced to horny teens who only made out, and that got on everyone's nerves. They were shown turning into this from the TDI Special and Haute Campture. Now Geoff does a 180 and becomes this egotistical jerk who cared about nothing other than ratings, willing to wach everyone get urt, and became a pain in the ***. This makes thigns harder for Bridgette, andf they almost break up. By the finale, they are all good and we last see them in te production about to WooHoo, turning back into the horny couple they were in the beginning of the season. It is like they did not really have their TDI personalities and barely any personalities outside of each other this season.

Honestly, DJ did not do anything outside of the plot he had with Chef Hatchet. He was a bit of a coward TDI, but never to this extent (though him getting scared got him booted off int he last season). So Chef was forcing him to do a bunch of things, DJ was feeling bad about it, and then he stood up to Chef, growing some balls. This would hve ended his cry baby arc, and made him stronger and more honorable. Though they had to derail him in TDWT. Overall, this was his greatest season.



Well, if any characters stayed the exact same, it is Izzy and Owen. Izzy was her crazy, delusional self, and Owen was his farting amchine, It was nice to see their relationship develop and to see how they worked off one another. Izzy created her ultimate egos and it was getting old. Thankfully they never kept her arouind for too long, even when she did return. Oh, Owen had that debt storyine, which was an excuse to bring him back. He was supposed to stir drama, but it failed in every single way. If he was nto there, Lindsay and Harold would have still been voted off. Nothing would have changed. We were seeing a negative interpretation of him, but it was forgotten by TDWT.



Heather did not really have much of a plot or an arc this season. She ahd to suffer fmor ehr actions in the previos season, dealing with notbeing liked or trusted, completely on her own. She was planning on making an alliance with Harold, but it is NEVER BROUGHT UP AGIAIN. She had to be a team player to make it through the season, and she was always on the chopping block and was the most expendable. She did not change at all, which is a problem for a decent amount of the characters. This is her worst season to me.



This is clearly the main and the big event that happened in this season, but it ALL happens in the first quarter. This is the complete destruction of Trent's character, and proved that he was nothing other than to be Gwen's love interest. So he gets jealous with Duncan and Gwen's blossiming friendship, and is annoyed that Duncan starts picking on him. Gwen is getting creeped out by his posessive and jealous behaviour, and then he becomes crazy with his 9 obsession and wanting to imprint a hot G on him. She was worrying about his health and breaks up with him. The media blows things out of propoprtion between the two of htem. Gwen comes off as a jerk, and Trent comes off as crazy and posessive, which was NOTHING like how he was on TDI (he was the normal guy).

These two were all over the place this season. One moment, LeShawna is lusting over Justin and wants nothing to do with Harold, and in the next, she is clinging onto him and flirting with him. LeShawna had her lie and badmouthing plot going on, which caused everyone to hate her, for almost her rest of her time on the show. This was kind of OOC for her. She feels bad and tries to make it up to them. Her and Harold make amends, and while he is not doing that, he is battling it out with Duncan and feuding with him. He is taking none of Duncan`s crap, and we learn more and see another side of Harold that is likable, compared to TDI. Harold and LeShawna kind of went nowhere this season.

This section is going to be long.It is time to discuss our initial antagonist Justin. I liked where they were going with him, flirting with and usinfg his looks to manipulate Lindsay abnd Beth, and I liked how he got Trent and Gwen booted, but afterwards....... he became more and more pathetic. He was too afraid to get down and dirty to get stuff done and in challenges, so he became lazy. With his alliance, it always seemed like he needed them more than they needed him. He became really annoying and really obnoxious. I am glad they did better with his replacement Alejandro.

Lindsay proved that she can sometimes flirt, but she is still a loyal girl to her boyfriend. I liked that she wanted to be better and smarter, and I liked how she proved that she is a serious contestant and is somewhat smart. It was sad to see her forget about Tyelr though. Her conflict with Courtney was great to watch, and I liked how her friendship with Beth has depth. I like watching them together. She left with dignity though. I was shocked as to how much I enjoyed Beth in this season. Sure, she was kind of boring at times, but she proved that she is quirky, flirty (she flirted with Jusitn and Harold as she was in a relationship), resourceful, and a charming girl that is easy to root for. She held her own this seaosn and used her friendliness, skills, and brains to make it far without being deceiving. I hoped she won, and I was fuming when Duncan won. I am gonna get to him and his loser girlfriend in a moment.

Ugh, Duncan and Courtney. I never really liked them to begin with, but this season made me despise them. Duncan is such a pathetic loser that he has to insissantly bother Harold because he is bored, but eh has somewhat of an excuse. I did not like how he treated Trent and stirred the pot in their relationship. I did not like that he was not a tema player and felt he was better than his teammates. I am annoyed that I had to deal with him for an entire season. I am annyoed that he WON. He cheated in a few of the challenges. He is disgusting. Now onto Courtney, she needed to take some pills. She ended up being this rage-a-holic, spoiled, entitled brat who called her lawyers for every damn thing. I did not like how she treated her teammates, and I do not like that NEITHER owned up to the crap that they did. She was annoyign in TDI, but she became a god-playing monster. She debuted midway through the competition, and I am glad that she was on the chopping block whenver she did not win. And as to their relaitonship, filthy. This season showed that their relaitonship was moreso off of beligerent lust and attraction than anything else, because neither really cared about what the other had to say, and never treated one another right. A contract. She is out of her damn mind. I am sick of them.

This season just came off as a rehash; the same characters that made it far in the first season are here (except fro Courtney, Harold, Beth, and Justin), storylines being rehashed and barely concluded. Most of the change and the events that came out of the season happened earlier in the seaosn, character derailment, and hard to unvest into plot points. It is not as bad as TDAS, but it is a flawed season.

Total Drama Island review
Total Drama Island is the best season so far, and it is not because it is the first. It is because they handle storylines the best, with balance, and everyone got a chance to shine somewhere fdown the line. The cast was the most likable, and it as not too over the top like a lot of the later seasons are. It is still a cartoon, with realistic and relatable characters. Let's get to the fodders. Ezekiel: He is the perfect example of a fodder that you don’t like. Not only were his sexist comments rude (don’t care if he was homeschooled), but he is gross and unfunny. Oh well, he is the first eliminated, boo hoo. Eva: While her outrages can be funny, other times, it is disturbing. She is a hit or miss character because while she knows she needs to fix it, she never really does. There is only so much you can do to excuse her behavior, and unlike Jo, she has no hidden depths or insecurities. Noah: Bleh. He was in 4 episodes as a competitor, and when he was not memorable, he was an annoying prick. Don’t care for him, and never found him funny in this season. Justin: Nothing really to say here. He is silent……and is a good looking person…..nothing else there. Cody: He was decent. He is a good person, and his failed attempts to win over Gwen can be funny, but then again, it gets old because you know nothing is gonna come out of it. He was not really that memorable to me, but I do not have any disdain for him in this season. While DJ was in 19 episodes as a competitor, he was still kind of fodder. He really did no do much other than be Geoff and Duncan's friend, and was not really that memorable on his own. He is a cool guy, and it is nice to see him with his pet bunnies, but I wish he did more. He could have definitely been eliminated earlier, and there were many who could have been eliminated after him, but were eliminated earlier.

Now that the fodders with no story is gone, I am going to discuss the ones that had stories, but with the least significant being focused on first, and then we will get into the most focused on storylines for last. I feel like Katie and Sadie were the first big missed opportunity of the season. They really only got focus on The Sucky Outdoors, and even when Sadie was by herself, she did not speak for 3 episodes. It would have been nice to see her get more focus without Katie. Now Katie and Sadie are alike, but Katie is more athletic, and Sadie is more smart and goofy (though still not a genius). I was not annoyed with their friendship, though I do wish that they did more, and they gave the plot of their best friendship more episodes and focus. They are still decent though. Tyler and Lindsay's relationship is one that was also a missed opportunity with the way they ended the plot in this season. Tyler just goes home after Courtney loses them the challenge, and he had to deal with his fear 3 times. There was buildup that they would be the Romeo and Juliette of the show, with the teams refusing for them to see one another, and they will get rid of the other, but nothing. Tyler and Lindsay do seem like a shallow couple that just touch and make out with one another, and lust over one another. Outside of that, Tyler was a bunch of slapstick jokes, as he is the failed athlete, and was quickly disposed of. I will discuss Lindsay's alliance later. Now it is time to talk about Harold and Leshawna, and their failed, halfassed relationship, which they should have put up more buildup for their relationship if they wanted them to hook up so badly. I give Leshawna credit for breaking up with him because it was a "spur of the moment" thing. Now Harold as his own character is great. The odds were against him from the very beginning, with no one seeing him as a valuable player, to Geoff, DJ, and Duncan (mostly Duncan) picking on him for no reason most of the time. He showed that he was useful at times, and shocked many people when he showed his skills and won a few times for his team. I also liked that he always stood up for himself, which is rare for nerd and geek characters, and that he got his own revenge before leaving with his head held high. Leshawna is simply one of the baddest b**ches in the club, and I love her for it. She always stood up for people who needed to be stood up for, and when someone got all up in her face, she had no problem defending herself. She is a very good friend to those who needs a friend and for those she cares about, and she is one of the most liked characters in this season. I am glad that she stopped referring to people's race when addressing them early on. Her friendships with most of the cast, and her conflicts are really entertaining, and I like that they made her a nice ghetto girl, and not one who is just a pain in the ass. She is strong competitor with a strong social game.

First Generation Character Explanations
25. Justin



Justin is dead last for a few reasons. One is that he is just pathetic; very pathetic. He constantly is worrying about damaging his looks, and uses it as an excuse to get out of things. He knows he has no redeemable traits and likability outside of his looks. A part of this is because he is too lazy and dumb to be an antagonist, which is why he is one of the worst. If he was ugly, he would probably end his life because he knows he is unlikable. There is no reason for us to sympathize for him, and is extremely irritating with his bad humor, constant whining, vanity, and all of that. Just ugh.

24. Ezekiel

In all of his appearances, my major annoyance is that he is annoying. He is annoying in TDI with his naïveté, and his sexist remarks were more than disrespectful, and U cannot believe that people forgot about that, and his relationship with Anne Maria does not prove any different. Then in Action, he shows that money is more important than anything, which he shows when TDWT comes on. After he was the first voted off AGAIN, he became obsessively determined with winning and he becomes more vengeful. His character took a turn to the worst physically and mentally, though he did not deserve what he got, and it is sickening that it is used as a joke in ROTI and AS, and he had the worst fate. Otherwise, I think he is ignorant, and needs to get his life together.

23. Courtney

She is ONLY below Duncan because of TDAS when he did not annoy me much, while she annoyed me immensely. What I dislike about her is that she whines way too much. She whined about other people not doing the challenges well, she whined when things did not go her way, she is just a spoiled brat. What made me start to dislike her was how she handled Sadie in TDI. Then in TDA, she became this monster, who used loophole after loophole, god-playing in the challenges, and became extremely irritating. She was revealed to be a selfish, entitled, bratty, ungrateful person who cannot accept when they lost. She can be likable, which annoys me even more about her. She would kill anyone to get ahead for a million (which is not even too much today). Even when she had happiness, she would toss that aside for small chump change. To me, she is inconsistent, a coward, and a CU#$. I felt sorry for her when she was cheated on (though she did not treat him the best) but the way she handled it, ala flirting with Tyler, using it as an excuse to yell to hear her own voice made me dislike her even more. She is digging her own grave. There is little to nothing that can make me be on her side.

22. Duncan

I do not like the "Juvelile Delinquent" type of people, so why would I like a cartoon that is this? I do not like how he pushes people around and bully them for absolutely no reason (Harold, and a few others minorly). He thinks he can do whatever he wants because he is cool. I was already iffy about him in TDI, but what officially made me dislike him is when he voted off Geoff because he did not vote off his girlfriend Bridgette. WHO DOES THAT. Anyways, he also cheated in challenges a few times, which is not right. He CAN be sweet, and he CAN be a loving person to others, but the most important thing to him is to be a bada, and a deadbeat. WHY am I supposed to sympathize with someone who wants to be a loser in society. I did not like it when he was not a team player in TDA and taunted others, did not like it when he could not have the DECENCY to dump his girlfriend before making out with his side chick, threaten others MANY times, constantly throw people under the bus, and the most frustrating thing about it is that he almost NEVER gets his comeuppance. People excuse him because he is "hot" and "cool". At least he went to jail. I do not like him constantly being on my screen, which is one of the only reasons why I enjoyed the last 5 episodes of TDAS.

21. Blaineley

Ugh, I cannot even believe she is even considered a contestant. Well, her celebrity diva attitude was funny at first in the aftermaths, but she soon got annoying, then she became a plot device to expose everyone. We learned that she was fat and hairy. She is just blah.

20. Eva

Eva is probably the least important character in the first generation, which is sad because unlike Katie and Sadie, she wants to compete. Anyways, one reason as to why I dislike her is because she is flat. All we know about her is that she is European, and has anger issues. Even the twins are given more depth than she is. Another is that her anger outbursts are not funny, but disturbing. She does not take much responsibility for her actions, but she wonders why people hate her. She is not likable in any way to me.

19. Noah

While I do like that he is sarcastic (since I am sarcastic too), he is not really that interesting as a character. He does have those quick one liners, has a defined personality, and it was nice seeing him being a team player, he is still extremely lazy. He does not really go through that much or make me laugh (since I don't think he is that funny) for me to like him. Maybe he should have been a bit more developed.

18. DJ

My opinion on DJ is that he is in between; don't like him, don't hate him. In TDI, he was just Geoff's and Duncan's friend, who never really had any plot whatsoever. He helped his team and was a sweetheart, but still boring. In TDA, they gave him a plot with Chef Hatchet forcing him into an alliance and making him into more of a man. This actually works well, as DJ quits with integrity, and stands up fro himself, not being afraid of everything. Then he gets completely derailed in TDWT when that stupid curse plot that made his team lost happen. He became extremely wimpy, whiny, annoying, irritating, weak, non reliable, and a real pain in the a. TDWT made him worse and unlikable as a character who was boring in the first place.

17. Katie

Yes, she is flat as a character and never returned after her early elimination in TDI, but she never annoyed me as much as she did to others. It is clear that she is the more athletic one out of the duo, and a bit less weird. She is here because she was barely seen, and all she was was a groupie to Trent, Justin, and the Drama Brothers, which is a shame because they had potential. Their dependency on one another is really annoying though.

16. Sadie

She is up here because she made it farther than Katie. Like her BFF, she is flat as a character and never returned after her early elimination in TDI, but she never annoyed me as much as she did to others. She is the more quiet and awkward one of the group, as she was silent after Katie went, and she somewhat befriended Harold. She is also a bit smarter than Katie. Again, she had potential, but became a groupie and her dependency was annoying.

15. Cody

I never cared for him in TDI. He was just that creepy kid who thought he was hot and tried to get with Gwen. He never lasted long enough to make that much of an impression on. He was likable as well in TDWT, but I still never cared for him. I understood him being creeped out by Sierra, but he was still doping the same thing to Gwen. I also did not like how he was so dependent on Sierra to make it through the competition. As soon as she could not help him anymore (even after she was eliminated), he got eliminated. I guess I am kind of eh about him because he was barely useful, and not that memorable to me. Not annoying, but I do find him a bit boring.

14. Izzy

I like Izzy. She is crazy, eccentric, adventurous, and never gives a crap what others think of her. Why is she in the middle? She never gets focus. Sure, she gets 3 seasons, but all she does other than be comic relief is hook up with Owen, and that is taken from her. We learn she has a criminal past, but does not go out to be a bada* like Duncan does. She is really enjoyable to watch, and I love how her and Owen interact, even her interactions with Owen are fun. Her charm did fizzle off me over the years, and I see a lot of comic relief instead of a character now, which is really sad. She is interesting, but used for comic relief instead of being a character too much for my liking.

13. Owen

I honestly really enjoyed him the first two seasons. I never thought he deserved to win TDI, but he was always a joy of energy, and made things easier for everyone else by being in his presence. He developed in TDA with his relationship with Izzy, his food cravings, and his family being broke, and this made him more than a consistent joke; then TDWT came. In this season, him and Izzy were the most forgotten characters, so they randomly give them the plot of them breaking up. All he does is be a target of Alejandro's insults, and a fart joke. All of his character went out of the door, so he can be comic relief, which stopped being funny in 2009. Whenever he was not making a joke, he was always just there, and he was just there, because he was always in the competition. When he was ousted in TDA, he was brought back to only nbe a useless intern. I am glad that eh was not in TDAS, since there was nothing for him to do. His ship has sailed, though he is still likable.

12. Gwen

She used to be one of my favourites. I loved her loner personality, her don't gaf attitude about what people think about her, also her vulnerable side, and found her relatable. Why is she in the middle now? She is inconsistent. Her attitude changed her into a nervous wreck in TDA, and then a man-stealer with no remorse in TDWT, and in TDAS, she was a bunch of things. Girly, cares what everyone says, her character went left and right. I am not going into the details about the irrelevant triangle drama, but it is so rushed, and makes her look like a fool. What I will say about her, is that out of the end of TDAS, she came out on top compared to Duncan and Courtney, making friends with the trio of ROTI. She is still likable, but too all over the place.

11. Tyler

He is really likable and enjoyable. He is kind of strong, but really, really, really, really clumsy.In TDI, he was just Lindsay's boyfriend, but he held his own in TDWT. I guess he is this high because he never irritated me. His clumsiness was funny, actually kind of helped in challenges, and we actually learned he is an idiot too, and not some horny athlete who wants to cop a feel. There is not too much to him, but he is enjoyable enough. He moved to sports because he was strong, but has no coordination. I...don't really know what else to say about him.

10. Trent

I really liked him and even today, I have a positive consensus about him. He is a talented, down to earth, chill guy, and I liked how his trait was that he was an inspiring musician. His relationship with Gwen was really great to watch. He made a few friends, and he was a target for slapstick, but he was still a defined character. People say that he is bland, and... I can see some of their points. His entire character and his plot has revolved around Gwen, and when that was done, he has never returned to the series. He had a lot of potential with his issues with his family, and his jealousy of Duncan, but that was tossed aside so quickly. He is too dependent on Gwen and was never given a chance to grow, though there was something there. He is so much better than Duncan. He does needs to go to therapy to work out all of his issues though.

9. Sierra

Yes, she is over the top, kind of creepy, and gets obsessed over things, but I really like her. One of the reasons is that she is a blogger, just like I am. If they focused on the blogging and her knowing the dirt on everyone, she could have made a sick antagonist and character, but they chose to focus on her obsession with Cody. Sometimes, she got too creepy for my liking, like throwing a marriage on him, forcing him to drink a love tea, but she got better at the end of the season. She continued to be independent, calmer, and more open and likable to others in TDAS, until the stupid Cam-Cody came in the way. This made her drop considerably in my rankings and made her a whole lot more unlikable to me. She became delusional, distracted, and more annoying than she EVER was. All of her development and such put her back to step -1. If she is going crazy after not being around someone that is implied that she is with, she seriously needs to go to an asylum. She just became so ridiculous this season, and she went home 2 episodes too late. She cannot be redeemed.

8. Harold

I really like Harold. He knows he is weird, he knows he is a loser, and he embraces it. He is not trying to be a cool person like Cody is, and I like how he never bows down to anyone. He is not a wimp who lets someone run all over him, but he stands up for himself. He really does have some skills, which is used for comedy. It is refreshing to see a character to love his weirdness. His relationship with LeShawna and how they interact is comedic to me, but she does bring out the best in him. What I will say is that he should not have quit in TDWT, and rubbed in facts like a know-it-all like Noah does. Him being in the Drama Brothers actually adds more character and interest to him, and because he is at his best, I would be okay if he did not return. He sure stuck it to Duncan, who is in jail and will probably be lonely, he is the cool one right now. He was at his best in TDA, but then came back to his best when he was eliminated.

7.Leshawna

I don't care what anyone says about her; I love her. I like how she keeps it real, how she is a good friend to the ones she cares about, defends the one that needs defending, and is never afraid to call someone out on their bull*. Her friendship with Gwen, conflict with Heather, and her other interactions have always been entertaining, as she was very useful in TDI, and is such a likable character. She could have been the typical yelling, ratchet, gold-digging ghetto girl, but she has a lot more heart and is not as hood she is supposed to be. I always liked her great contrast with Harold, and I do think they bring out the best in each other. She was smack talking in TDA, and I am glad she got called out from it. She did get brought down in TDWT for not being the nicest and acting the worst she ever has been, being overly bossy and careless. What I do not like is that she plays all of these games with Harold. She has had a good run, is flawed, and I wont be mad if she never returned again. She had the perfect screentime. 6. Alejandro I am actually shocked with how much I like Alejandro. When I saw the concept of him being released as TDA was finishing airing, I knew he was a Justin copy and in some ways, he is Why is Justin my least favorite and Al one of my favorites then? Well Alejandro actually has depth. He comes from a privileged his family, and he has a strained conflict with his brother, which is why he always wants to upstage everyone. I like his shady commentary towards the cast, and he has this confidence about himself. I like watching him. He is more than just a looker; he is smart, manipulative, athletic, and he fits the Latin Lover stereotype, and he embraces it. What I do not like about him is that he is a villain-stu. This takes away any accomplishments he does make, but at least it is explained from the fact that a family member taught it to him. His relationship with Heather is great, and I like it when he interacts with people. I dont like how in TDAS, he became more like Justin, with being overly obsessed with his looks and getting injured. It was ridiculous and irritating. He is still one of the best villains on the show. 5. Lindsay

I have always liked Lindsay. For some reason, I liked how her and Tyler were so sweet, and fell in the "teenage lovers separated by their groups", which only lasted about 7 episodes. Then she was just a dumb follower of Heather, causing her to even turn on Beth (who she agreed with, when it came to Heather), and eventually found out that Heather was a bi*h that was just using her. I liked her plot in TDI. She was always nice, and had the best intentions. In TDA, she had the plot of her not being a complete dumbass, and that was done really well. She became more of a leader instead of a follower, and flourished through the season with her developing friendship with Beth. From TDWT and on, she was used just for comic relief. She did have her story with Tyler, which was decent enough. All of her stories were done by the time TDAS came, so I am glad she got the early boot.

4. Beth I don't care what anyone says; I like Beth in TDI, she was nerdy, but not overly nerdy, and she wanted to make friends. She naturally got along with Lindsay, and seemed like the normal one out of them and Heather. I liked how she eventually backed away from Heather and stood up for herself, and humiliating Heather. It was sad that she went in the next episode though. In TDA, that is where she shined. She was her own person, became a love-struck fool, but eventually broke away from it. I like how she was a bit confused between which man she could choose, and it was really easy to root for her. She worked so hard to get as far as she did, and she dominated in the last quarter of the season. She has the right values, and she did have flaws, and was actually awkward and quirky (unlike Zoey). I have grown to really appreciate her as a character, and her friendship with Lindsay was really great.

3. Heather Heather, Heather, Heather. I hated her in TDI, but she made things interesting and was a good, interesting, and realistic antagonist (unlike others). Then I realized, I  love to hate  her; instead of just hating her like many of the other antagonists. She was so determined, and did what she had to do, and what I respect so much about her is that she  owns up to her sh**, unlike others (Courtney). In TDA, she became forgettable and a bit stale, as no one trusted her, she made it a bit too far, and she had nothing to do, as everyone was always watching her. Her making amends with LeShawna was shocking, but I liked it (thank the lord they are enemies again). Her intense feuds with LeShawna and Gwen are some of the best conflicts in Total Drama. She became so much more likable in TDWT; maybe because it was because she was having a relationship/feud with Alejandro, or the fact that there were so many more unlikable people in the season. She was decent enough in TDAS. She managed to make me a fan.

2. Bridgette I don't know how I feel about her being in this position, but here she is for now. I guess she is here because she has never bothered or irritated me. She was very likable, and I like her relationship with Geoff very much. It was very natural in TDI, and I liked her friendships with Courtney and later Gwen and LeShawna. She helped her team, and I supported her vegetarianism and environmentalism. She had her own character, and was not afraid of it. In TDA, she did go downhill, as she was just used to be elimination fodder and made out with Geoff. In the aftermaths, their issues in their relationship was nice at first, but it became more and more repetitive and annoying. I am glad they made her f*k up with cheating on Alejandro, because up until then, she was always the perfect one in the relationship. She learned from it, and she became her own character as well, with her relationship with Geoff growing. I think her time on the show was used well.

1. Geoff I never expected for him to be a favourite of mine. I am SO not a party boy, and I DO hold grudges. He is always happy, optimistic, wanting to cheer everyone up, and living life to the fullest. I liked how he was shy when trying to talk to Bridgette in the beginning of the series, and liked his friendship with DJ and Duncan (though I was annoyed when they picked on Harold). He is not cocky or arrogant, and his relationship with Bridgette was handled well. I even liked him when he was acting like a prick, and that was because I knew the old Geoff was still there, and it did show that he is not all happy, and he is somewhat insecure, as people expect him to be something. He has a defined personality, is not all smiles and sunshine, and cares really hard for the ones he likes, and even all people anyways. I remember when we all thought Geoff was going to cheat on Bridgette (especially with what they showed in TDA special), so I feel for him when he was actually the one that is cheated on. He did not automatically take her back, and showed some dignity. He had a right to feel the way he was thinking. I liked seeing him in the aftermaths, and the aftermath did SO much to Bridgette and Geoff. He is likable, and never fully irritated me. Though he never got too much screentime, he got enough. If he ever competes again, I will be rooting for him.

2nd Generation Character Explanations
13. Lightning

I find no likable traits about him. He is not funny, he is not charming, he is not caring, he has no depth, and is only an arrogant prick. My dislike for him is probably so strong because he was in every episode of TDROTI and a few episodes in TDAS. He did absolutely nothing in his premiere season but confuse Jo for a guy for 3-4 episodes, have a conflict with Cameron for the last 3 episodes, and that was ALL in the second half of the season. Otherwise, he does nothing but lust over himself and calls his team a bunch of losers. They add the tidbit about his father in only the final episode. NEVER mentioned before or afterwards. He is a flat, unlikable character who is too irritating. He even became more delusional in TDAS.

12. Mike

He gives me a headache. Okay, I was completely bored withhim in TDROTI. All he was in that season was a character who's MPD and his relationship with Zoey defined who he is. We know NOTHING about him other than that and he likes action films. We can't even say he is nice because he NEVER does anything nice nor mean. And his MPD is used as an obstacle to get over to get Zoey. We don't know the psychological isssues he has about it and his last regarding to it. I never liked how his personalities were used as a joke. In TDAS, he became dumber and ridiculous; throwing a huge rock over your head instead of telling Zoey about Mal? REALLY?. His Mal plot was boring and not investible, since he barely did anything. Mike probably has the least personality traits and things known about him. At least some of the others have depth from their biographies. He has zilch. I don't care for him, his MPD is portrayed horribly, and he is a flat and blank character overall. This is a huge issue, since he has been a major character for the last 2 seasons.

11. Staci

There is really not much to say about her. Her entire existence is to annoy the audience and competitors enough to want her to go home first, and so no one will miss her. She is not funny, and she is nothing but a bunch of lies she told to get attention. I cannot like someone who has no character other than that, and only competed in an episode. She is pathetic.

10. Zoey

I found her mediocre and boring at best in TDROTI. I liked how she wanted friends and such, but that was focused on in her first and last episode competing in the competition. What did she do otherwise? Fought with Anne Maria over Mike, and her relationship with Mike. Oh, she made friends with Cameron after Mike was eliminated. Her relationship with Mike is so half a***d because they almost never have genuine interactions and get to know one another, like Geoff and Bridgette, Trent and Gwen, etc. Most of their conversations are about them being nice, and Mike screwing up having a chance with Zoey. They almost never spend genuine time together where they just hang out of have a heart felt conversation. In TDAS, all she does is become worried about Mike and is confused about if he is Mal or Mike. In the previous season, she is a damsel in distress and in TDAS, she becomes a Mary-Sue godplayer which EVERYTHING goes her way, and with no explanations. She is dumb without supposed to be dumb. She is bland, all over the place, not a stereotype,  Mary-sue, and a badly executed character. She wants friends, but pushes most of them away when they try to befriend her.

9. B

His defining traits are that he is smart and silent. That is it. He is not unlikable, but I know nothing about him. It is clear that he is fodder not only because he does not speak and is the third eliminated, but because he was not in the initial draft of Total Drama Reloaded. He is decent, but has no depth or really anything likable.

8. Scott

I never liked him and I still do not like him. Not only do I find his voice annoying, but he is pathetic. In TDROTI, he is so called "the devious one" and he is a decent antagonist, but his strategy is so ridiculous. Try to lose every challenge. He could have gone home at any time (especially because he never contributed much) but because the plot requires him not to, he stays. It was like we are supposed to take him seriously, but he is also a gimmick for a bunch of slapstick with Fang. I just hated him this season. Everyone for some reason likes Scott in TDAS, but he was the EXACT OPPOSITE of who he was in the previous season with no build up. Since when does he like to be controlled and bossed around? He HATED that in ROTI. He became even more of a bumbly fool, and barely did anything devious. His relationship with Courtney made me squeal and shiver in disgustingness every time they were on screen. He is a pathetic character who only has his farmboy shtick as something consistent in the 2 seasons.

7. Sam

Sam is just a boring character. I have never been a gamer, and find gamers boring, so having a gamer stereotype was not interesting to me. His only plot was his relationship with Dakota, which was better than Mike and Zoey.......but not by much. If their main connection is technology withdrawal...... I think it speaks for itself. He does sometimes say some gamer lingo, but he never really did anything interesting, though he is somewhat likable. In TDAS, he was nothing but a punching bag for slapstick. I still do not know why he was in TDAS. Probably to bring Brian Froud back. Sam has just never been interesting, bland, or irritating.

6. Dawn

It amazes me with how overrated she is. I am not trying to say that Dawn fans suck, but she never did anything. She read a few people's auras, but that was to give them depth, NEVER to give her depth. Other than that, she became a pawn for Scott to eliminate. She is mysterious, likable, and has right intentions, but she never does anything interesting. Her possible Wicca is interesting and how she got it or what not, but it is never explored, just like she is.

5. Cameron

I am shocked that he got this far, but he has some depth and did not irritate me. I really liked him in ROTI, which changed in AS. I liked his underdog plot, and I like how he was not a stale character. He is very intelligent and fascinated with butterflies, and had to learn as he goes to make it through the competition. He had character, and it was very easy to root for him. His friendships with Mike and Zoey was decent enough, and his arc was perfectly executed and summed in Revenge of the Island, but that is kind of the problem. In TDAS, he had nothing to do but that  grating Cam-Cody plot. He escaped elimination twice, for almost no reason. His friendship with Gwen was good enough, but his final episode RUINED him. So the person who studied Mike ALL last season, and the ONLY winner to share money would willingly try to destruct a relationship when he knows something is wrong with his friend? Derailment at it's best.

4. Jo

I usually hate people like her, but there is something that I like about her. I like that she is insecure about her sexuality (not being gay or anything, but about girliness and such). This gives her depth that makes her stand out from Eva. She is such a shady person and can come up with the best nicknames, so I like that. She is very funny. Her interactions with Brick and Lightning were really funny, and her conversations with Brick COULD signify that she likes him. I wish she could have loosened up a bit and LET herself be cared about by others. She is a bada**, and throws people under the bus like no other.

3. Anne Maria

It is so weird; I disliked her until a few months ago. So what changed my mind? I realized she was not that bad. Sure, she is not that smart, kind of tough and a bit selfish, but she is not an antagonist person, and actually does care about someone else's safety and basic human rights. There is a few times where she defends others, and I like her "if you come for me, I will come for you" attitude, and she is a tough cookie. She embraces her sexuality, and can be a good person. I just wished that she had more depth to her, and was not just used for the somewhat love triangle. She is full of personality, but not full of depth.

2. Dakota

I was surprised as to how much I really like her. She is pretty nice, and kind of socially awkward. It is hard for her to care for others because she had not been loved and given affection for, so it was weird of her to receive such attention from Sam. She became nicer and sweeter as the season went on. Her relationship with Sam was eh, and she was funny as an intern. Dakotazoid was extremely sickening to watch, as she did not deserve it, and because it was LITERALLY Chris' fault, and it added no purpose. I wish she appeared in the show more, and NOT as Dakotazoid. FYI producers, NO ONE likes Dakotazoid, and NO ONE EVER found it funny.

1. Brick

There is so much to like about him. We learn that he is a HUGE mama's boy and a family boy, which I can definitely relate to. He has some need to be dominated and controlled, but he believes that he is large and in charge. He is extreme heroic, nice and fun without being a stale person like so many others. He sticks to his moral code, and that is an honorable trait in a person that many more people need to follow. His interactions with Jo are very funny, and they could get along, but their morals clashed a bit too much. He was definitely used as a slapstick for a few times, and he is kind of clumsy. He is one of the best and most likable characters on the second generations.

Third Generation Explanations
14. Amy

I absolutely hate her. I do not respect nor will I ever tolerate someone treating FAMILY like that. She is such an unlikable, talentless, useless b**ch that it is unbelievable. She literally takes credit for everything her sister does because she cannot do s**ton her own. Her entire personality is based of of making her sister miserable. Listen, I do like some b**chy characters, but her b**chiness and meanness is completely over the top and exaggerated, and it is an issue because it is not funny, and she has absolutely NO depth for us to give her a bit of slack or a legitimate explanation. There is literally no reason to like her, and I have never been so infuriated with a character on the show  before. I am at least glad she was fodder.

13. Max

Not only is he ugly in every single way imaginable, his "failing to be evil" schtick is NEVER funny, which is an issue because he is in 3/4 of the season, and it is ALL he does. I never found it entertaining, and I found him stalling the season with his failed humor and his utterly ridiculous character. I do not care about his evil schtick; I can barely look at him without wanting to throw up or gauge my eyes and ears up. He literally is useless, and was grating to watch. His interactions with Scarlett is funny and is the only redeemable thing about him, but he is really delusional.

12. Sugar

<span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color:rgba(0,0,0,0);color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;">I cannot believe that the network is seriously trying to promote her as the icon of TDPI. I liked her in the first few episodes, but that soon flew out of the window. I did not like the overly brute way she treated Ella, and it was never funny at all, because it is overly ridiculous with how mad she is for a nice gesture. That issue I have with her is miniscule compared to her performance after Ella's elimination. She is literally a walking and talking gross bomb that is ready to explode. She was used for flatulence <span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color:rgba(0,0,0,0);color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:19.5px;"> humor, food humor, being overly dumb, and was attempting to be the new Owen. It was overly gross, and it only made her trashier than she already was. She was painful to watch.
