Let's look back at this: Zeke became a zombie, Courtney was on the rebound but became volatile again, Duncan became unfaithful and frankly lost what goodness he still had in him, DJ had that coward plot going all over again, Bridgette became unfaithful even though she did later make up for that mistake, Gwen became a backstabbing liar who let her own impulses cloud her better judgements and didn't show remorse for it, Izzy broke up with Owen for what was essentially a throwaway gag, and almost everyone agrees LeShawna was no good in TDWT. Almost all of that was in the negative. A lot of it was highly inconsistent with their TDI personas and again, a lot of positive development ended up negated. And Sierra didn't really develop either. She's even more one-note now thanks to TDAS, but she was little better back then.

At least Island was consistent, and if you ask me, it preserved the characters and developed them well. I mean look at Lindsay too, she grew. Beth grew. Cody grew. And as the first season it couldn't develop every single cast member to the same extents. But its consistency was spot on.

Action really ruined a lot of character images. And All-Stars pretty much left things as is and did not add anything to the series. Even making things worse for some characters.
