User blog:WreakerOfClash/ My ranking of the 55 TD Contestants.

I first want to say that I am not including RR. I for 1), don't know if RR is canon or not, 2), don't consider them TD contestants; it's like saying that the kids from Skatoony are TD contestants, and 3), I have not watched the full season, so I can't exactly rank people I don't really know about. With that said, I will try my best to give explanations on where they are ranked, but don't expect detailed descriptions on those characters that I just place in the mid positions. So here are my rankings of all the contestants.

52nd: Dave (Gen 3). Ugh where do I start. Dave had the worst derailment of all the contestants, aside from Courtney. He was smart and strategic, but just turned into a whiny, annoying, wimpy crybaby. His voice was annoying, and was like a horribly written Cody. His character is the main reason I hate PI so much. The writers made most of the season about him and Sky, but then he didn't even go that far, considering the contestant count.

51st: Staci (Gen 2). Stupid, annoying, slow, bad at challenges, Staci was the equivilant of giving a rock as a contestant to the Toxic Rats, and I feel that she is still the worst competitor to this day, in terms of competiton.

50th: Blainley (Gen 1). Blainley was just added to block others like Beth, Noah, and Tyler from joining the game, and got out Owen, who really shouldn't have gotten out in her place.

49th: '''Sugar (Gen 3). '''   PI needed to have a villain, but I guess that they thought they needed three? Sugar is just a combo of Owen, except even more revolting, and Heather.

48th: Beth (Gen 1). Beth was hands-down the most forgetable winner in Total Drama. Beth was just a mediocre player, and was just a floater, hiding behind a wall of other targets, like Courtney and Heather.

47th: Geoff (Gen 1). Geoff is a character that I really liked in TDI. He was kind, funny, and charming. But he had two derailments; one in TDWT, and one in RR. Now Geoff is just a complete annoying moron, and lost all the charm I used to like about him.

46th: Sam (Gen 2). Sam was to most unnecessary AS there was. He just filled up a slot that could've been for other's like Cody and Owen, or Brick and Anne-Marie from Gen 2, and although I felt like he was an All-Star, he was the only "All Star" that didn't make the merge, and still hasn't.

45th: Leonard (Gen 3). Leonard actually managed to impress me on how bad he did. After competing in two seasons, he only competed in 3 episodes, and has never won a challenge. I don't really understand why he was in RR to this day.

44th: Beardo (Gen 3). Beardo was just an unlikeable version of B. But unlike B, he was utterly useless in challenges, and even managed to do worse than Leonard did, but at least he wasn't in two seasons.

43rd: Justin (Gen 1). Justin was probably the worst "villain" in all of the seasons, if you could even call him one5. He rarely eliminated anyone, if he did at all, was a mute in the first season, and, like Beth, just floated to his ranking.

42nd: Trent (Gen 1). I actually wonder if the writers wanted to ruin Trent as much as they could. Trent just became flat-out creepy in TDA, destroying the little faith I had in him being a good character.

41st: Dakota (Gen 2). Dakota was just an...odd character. I didn't understand the reason of bringing her back later in the season, and although she could've been a good character, she was just poorly written.

40th: Rodney (Gen 3). Rodney wasn't funny with his akward love triangle, and he acted like a 4th grader. Like Dakota, he was a nice concept, but awfully written.

39th: Eva (Gen 1). Why do people want her back? Eva just has no potential to be anything better than a butch with anger issues. If she does return, her elimination would probably be really early on anyways.

38th: Ezekiel (Gen 1). Ezekiel basically murdered himself in both seasons he competed in, and was only a contestant in 2 episodes, the lowest amount of everyone. Zeke wasn't going to be eliminated, but had to make the remark about women, and in WT, he was just arrogant and stupid.

37th: Sky (Gen 3). Sky, like Topher and Dave, was really likeable. But Dave dragged her character down along with himself. She started to derail with Dave, except she derailed slower, and was more painful to watch. Her overcompetitive-ness got in the way of any really good character development, and was basically stabbed, crushed, and stepped on in the finale.

36th: Mike (Gen 2). Mike was pretty much the reason AS wasn't that good. The plot was way too oriented around him, making it obvious that Mike and Zoey would be the finalists. It wasn't Mike himself, it was more of Mal, who was responsible for way too many eliminations in the season.

35th: Zoey (Gen 2). I freaking loved Zoey in ROTI. She was such a great character. But, like Mike, she ruined TDAS for me with the intense plot-orientation around her, making her not that likeable for me anymore, and I'm just sick of the Mike/Zoey plot.

34th: Sadie (Gen 1). Sadie is just boring. Both her and Katie as a duo are nice, but I'm more interested in Katie than Sadie, because Sadie without Katie is just Zoey without Mike(?).

33rd: Amy (Gen 3). Amy is just a snot-nosed little brat. I think the main reason I hold a grudge against her is the miserable way she treats Samey, because it just doesn't feel right. It reminds me of a dad that would abuse his children.

32nd: Izzy (Gen 1). Izzy never was appealing to me. She was a funny character, but didn't really feel like much, with no serious plot development. I lost even more respect for her after dumping Owen, but at least that inspired the best TDWT song.

31st: Scarlett (Gen 3). Scarlett was an evil-Izzy. Wild, spontanious, but a strong contestant. But I feel that Scarlett was never really competing, but more of hanging around with Max, and just kinda felt like she didn't belong on PI.

30th: Tyler (Gen 1). Jesus Tyler was stupid! Like, it was comedic for a bit, but it just got freaking ridiculous. His plot line with Lindsay was nice, but he didn't do much in TDI, and was decent in WT, and was overall a forgetable character.

29th: Courtney (Gen 1). This just is sad. Courtney with Duncan was amazing it TDI, and although it was sad to see her go, I was fine with it. But she was horrible in TDA. She was so rude, annoying, and was SUCH a brat. WT she didn't really do anything that stood out to me, except ruining the Duncan relationship. But AS was god-awful for her. I loved the relationship with Scott, but that didn't last. I could go on and on about Sundae Muddy Sundae, but I feel I should end it there before I get too mad.

28th: Jo (Gen 2). Jo just stayed in the shadow of Scott in ROTI, and only interacted with Cameron and Lightning. She was just bad in AS, because of all the true vilains, she was definietly the weakest, leading to her early elimination.

27th: Anne-Marie (Gen 2). Easily the most un-PG character, her weird Mike thing didn't feel right, and her elimination was down-right ridiculous, selfish, and idiotic.

Halfway through the chart. All of the remaining characters I genuinely enjoyed, so the choices will be harder to make.

26th: Katie (Gen 1). The more enjoyable of the duo, Katie doesn't have enough development to go much farther. She was out fifth and only competed in one of four avaliable seasons.

25th: B (Gen 2). B was one of the smartest contestants in the entire TD universe. The main issue with him, like Katie, was out early (third), and didn't have enough development. He was also a mute, which doesn't really help him.

24th: Ella (Gen 3). Ella was eliminated so unfairly by Sugar. Although not that many people like her, I thought that she was a well-developed character. If she was involved in a bit more, or had a bit of a dark side, then she would've been in my top 5, but she was just too happy.

23rd: Sierra (Gen 1). I liked the concept of an obbsesive fan of one of the characters, and Cody was a great choice. I thought she was really well developed, and was on my top 3 until I watched AS. Her character was horrible and annoying, with taking obsession to a whole new level, but I still have her far up because of WT.

22nd: Duncan (Gen 1). Duncan is one of the staples in TD, but he is just over-used. Top 5 three times, with a win, and merge is a bit too much. After a while, his character just gets boring, just waiting for something special to happen, which was nice in WT, but his love triangle was just bad in AS.

21st: Samey (Gen 3). Samey is one of the best characters in PI, but she was eliminated too early. I didn't like how Amy ruined her chances of winning for her, and Chris treated her unfairly with something that she couldn't control.

20th: Gwen (Gen 1). Gwen suffers from the same issues as Duncan, being over-used. I would've liked her better if she had more interaction with Cody than Courtney in WT, and the whole being upset about losing Courtney was lame.

19th: Lindsay (Gen 1). Lindsay was just way too stupid in WT and AS. Her elimination was stupid in WT, but AS was BS. How does someone forget basic motor skills like that? Anyone knows how to push a cart! She never has done that good for being in four seasons anyways.

18th: Cameron (Gen 2). Cameron, like Mike and Zoey, were way too focused on in AS. But I always preferred Cameron over those two. He wasn't as shoved in your face as those two were, and his "relationship" with Gwen was cute.

17th: Heather (Gen 1). Heather was a strong villain in TDI, and WT, but not in TDA or AS. In TDA, she was just weak and mellow, and in WT and AS, Alejandro was better than her in most ways.

16th: Bridgette (Gen 1). Being probably the most normal and sensible on the island, Bridgette was one of my favorites. I thought that her elimination was random and out of place, but TDA and WT, she was just cheated out. Geoff and Bridgette got eliminated for the most ridiculous reason, and WT kinda made me mad at Alejandro for a bit.

15th: Lightning (Gen 2). Another example of bad derailment in AS, Lightning was just a villain version of Lindsay, and was annoyingly stupid. This was dissapointing as I was expecting him to at least go a bit farther than where he was eliminated.

14th: Max (Gen 3). Max had some very cute moments, like in the episode, "Three Zones and a Baby". His character was irritating when he was all "evil", his friendship with Scarlett was lame, and he was so stupid with his elimination, but he was good for the most part.

13th: Leshawna (Gen 1). I loved the attitude that Leshawna had, the relationship with Harold, and the friendship with Gwen. The only issue I really had with her was how she was eliminated in TDI and WT, and how she was annoying some times.

12th: Noah (Gen 1). Since I loved Leshawna's 'tude, then I defintely would love Noah's. He was really rude and unlikeable in TDI, but in WT and RR, he was funny, and had that perfect mix of charm, nerd, and snark, and it was just great. His BFF status with Owen was also a plus, cause they were true opposites.

11th: Brick (Gen 2). I think Brick would've been a way better fit in AS than Sam was. Heck, he even placed higher! Brick's wimpy-ness was nice and bad for me at the same time, but his great strict, but kind leader persona was fantastic.

10th: DJ (Gen 1). DJ was the nicest contestant on the show. He was practically friends with everyone, but his eliminations were all never fair. He was respectful, a great cook, and a strong competitor, with a great mellow side for animals, which also made Duncan's character more likeable.

9th: Alejandro (Gen 1). Alejandro was the strongest villain by far. With his amazing maniuplation, charm, and skill, he made it really far in both seasons he competed in, and he even knew about Mal before the reveal. I don't know if this is good or not, but the only part I hate about him is how he eliminated practically everyone, even people on the other team!

8th: Shawn (Gen 3). Shawn had a great relationship with Jasmine, and was insanely unique. He felt genuine and realistic. He did screw up with Jasmine occasionally, but he knew how to handle the competition quite well, and pulled of a win!

7th: Owen (Gen 1). THe most lovable character in TDI, when I think TD, the thing I think of (besides Chris) is Owen. With his humor, toughness, and willing-ness to do pretty much anything, he proved to be a very strong contestant, being one of the few making the merge in every season that he competed in!

6th: Topher (Gen 3). If you want a real in-depth story about my opinion on Topher, then check my profile, but I still feel strongly of Topher, with his intense handsome-ness, and charm, and watching Chris struggle with him was AMAZING!

5th: Scott (Gen 2). So in ROTI, I didn't really care for Scott, eliminating pretty much his entire team, but in AS, he was the absolute best character! His relationship with Courtney was a refreshing one, and he was nicer and more helpful in AS than in ROTI.

4th: Jasmine (Gen 3). With a nice Aussie accent, Jasmine was really so nice to pretty much everyone. Her friendship with Samey was just amazing, and her with Shawn was practically the best relationship so far. She was really skilled and I wouldn't be suprised if she will win a season soon.

3rd: Harold (Gen 1). Harold was the nerd that this show needed. He was cunning, funny, smart, and an overall good contestant. Dating Leshawna was super funny, and although his elimination in WT was sad, it was cute of him to sacrifice himself for her. He did amazing in TDA, and his loyalty to Cody in WT was charming.

2nd: Dawn (Gen 2). Dawn was so amazing in ROTI. Her kind nature was refreshing, and her persona was what made her my 2nd favorite, and she was out fourth! I feel that she should've done better if it wasn't for Scott, but she is so nice, and I for some reason can see Dawn with either Scott or Cody in the future.

1st: Cody (Gen 1)! Cody is the best character in TD, and possibly my favorite TV character of all-time! His childish behavor, great personality, kindess, skill, charm, and his crush on Gwen make me feel so much like him! I think the fact that he was so underestimated in WT and made it to the final 3 was great. If one thing could happen in the next season, I wish it would be him making it far. His friendships with Gwen, Sierra, Harold, Heather, Owen, and others really make me enjoy all of their characters a little bit more.

Wow that took like, 5 hours! Please leave feedback that is constructive. I would love to hear your thoughts on this list, as I put so much effort into it. Thanks and have a great day!
