User blog comment:Epic~00/Why Total Drama All Stars Was Such An Abysmal Season (PART 3)/@comment-22535514-20140905234535

The brain sequences Mike had for all of the second half were DEFINITELY an issue and showed to me that NOTHING ELSE mattered but f***ing Zoke, and their rehashed plot from ROTI, but instead of Anne Maria and his other personalities being the villain, this time it is Mal. ALL of the TDAS competitors should have been there for the finale for the exact reason you and everyone else said. None of the other characters had proper cloesure to their plots, and it is simply not fair and inexcusable.

Scottney was a badly handled plot, Gwen and Courtney was a badly handled plot, Gwuncan was a badly handled plot, Aleheather was a badly handled plot, Cameronierra (don't know the official ship name) is a badly handled plot. WTF were they thinking?
