You need a character who has more to him than a handful of funny moments, Scott doesn't have that much meaningful substance in the season aside from that. And he wasn't a good pick for 3rd/4th place, he coasted to that spot. At least in ROTI he worked for it. The extremely awkward and totally random pairing known as Scottney didn't help his case either. I'd be more forgiving if he 1) Was more consistent with his actual self, 2) Actually played more of a role in the season to justify his overly long run and 3) Was not placed in such a random pairing if they insisted on showing his softer edge.

So for me, he was just a very awkward part of TDAS, and that's not really much better than a flat out bad part of TDAS. Boy, I hate that season.
