Fresh TV wants to include LGBT characters (The older fandom would eat it up no matter how dull/boring it would be) unfortunately, Teletoon and Cake (The British entertainment company that distributes Total Drama to the rest of the world) won't allow it

"the characters react uncomfortably. Every. Single. Time"

Just like the majority of people

"I don't want gay jokes"

Unfortunately, that's all you're going to get (Total Drama is a comedy, it's supposed to make jokes at the expense of people)

"You're saying we deserve to be made into jokes rather than characters?"

You don't, but Total Drama is a comedy, it is supposed to make jokes rather than characters

"I want a gay character taken as seriously as the rest of the cast"

Most of the cast isn't taken seriously
