No matter how good that stupid spinoff may end up being, ultimately it means we don't get a proper sequel to the show for years, and potentially never will solely because of it's existence.

And that's ''exhausting. ''There's so many unresolved plotlines and characters in the show and while it's one thing to write a character badly, it's another thing entirely to just abandon what you've built up in favor of aimless shennanigans. Like, goodness its a really depressinng reality to think that Dave getting mauled by a bear is the final ending we get.

I'd much rather have a bad traditional season of total drama produced since at least I have a reason to be invested in that stuff.

And, while I'll preface this by saying I have absolutely no ill-will towards the show's staff: it takes disasterous naivety to think this kind of thing would excite the show's existing audiance as much as a proper new season would.
