User blog comment:VeryUnknownFan/The Seasonal Rot of Total Drama Action (Part 1)/@comment-24466939-20141114013234

Ugh. This season was so boring I stopped watching after Full Metal Drama, and only saw the last half after World Tour had aired. Most of these plots had great potential like you said, but all of them either fall flat on their face or feel sloppily done due to the bad writing. Even if you dislike World Tour, you cannot possibly say it was as dull and uninspired as this... thing. It is basically filler between Island and World Tour in my opinion.

In Action's defense, a few episodes were as great as the Island episodes, and it was the most realistic for the most part of all the seasons. The middle is much more entertaining than the end and beginning.
