The problem with Zoey is that she isn't a stereotype. Total Drama is a show that's supposed to have fun with how exaggerated and how funny a stereotype can be. Zoey isn't a stereotype, so her personality can't flow properly. Gwen isn't much of a stereotype either, but we can at least invested in her character and where it goes. Zoey is a one-way train of niceness. She isn't going to change, and nothing she's currently doing has any investment in me whatsoever. I don't care about what special skills she has. I don't care about where her relationship with Mike goes. The only way I'm invested with that is because of The Malevolent One. Other than that, I just don't care. She doesn't amuse me and she doesn't have anything going for her, so why should I care? Why should I put my interest in a character who has nothing to offer in terms of comedy or entertainment?
