The Canadian intern testing out the final challenge in Total Drama Island.

Interns are people hired by Chris and the producers to aid in the production of the show. They perform a variety of tasks, such as testing out challenges, researching info to aid in a challenge, and even pampering Chris. Occasionally, Chef Hatchet is forced to serve as an intern by Chris.

Throughout the Total Drama series, Chris frequently subjects the interns to getting injured, some even dying. A running gag throughout Total Drama is having interns test out challenges to ensure that they are safe enough, only for them to die or get severely injured during testing. Nonetheless, Chris will consider the challenge as safe, regardless of the state the interns are after testing it.

Appearances

Most of the interns are prototype designs of the contestants, mainly the ones of Duncan, Cody, DJ, and Tyler. Each season has its own featured intern(s) who appear(s) the most throughout the season.

Featured interns

For Total Drama Island, the main intern had an orange bandanna, long brown hair, a white shirt, baggy green pants, and orange sandals. The intern's appearance was the prototype design for Duncan, which was later used for Cody in the original promo (right after Camp TV had been changed to Total Drama Island) and then recycled again into an intern. He first appears as a pizza delivery man in The Sucky Outdoors and last appears as a cameraman for Celebrity Manhunt. This intern also appears on the cover of a tabloid magazine Chris holds up in Not So Happy Campers—Part 1. He also has several appearances in Total Drama Action and is one of the only interns to appear in more than one season.

For Total Drama Action, the main intern had Tyler's original design, with blonde hair, a white sleeveless shirt, khaki shorts, and sandals. A second intern, featured in both seasons, is DJ's original design. He is a large man with a goatee, red cap worn backwards, a tan and red jacket, and matching shorts. He most prominently appeared in Total Drama Action but had a very brief cameo appearance in Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island.

For Total Drama World Tour, there are three main interns. Two of them are noticeably very large and well-built. Both of their outfits also resemble Chris' outfit with shorts and sandals, except one wears a light blue shirt and is blonde, while the other is darker-skinned, has shorter hair, and wears a red shirt. The third one is also tall but fairly leaner, and initially seems to be simply a taller version of the main intern of Total Drama Action. His outfit also resembles the outfit worn by Chris and the other two interns.

For Total Drama: Revenge of the Island, there are five main interns. Three of them are male, another one is female, and eventually, Dakota wound up becoming an intern at the end of Ice Ice Baby. All of the interns except for Dakota have pale skin and black hair. Interns of this season also wear special outfits unlike in previous seasons, which consist of red shirts (again, similar to Chris' outfit), and either khaki shorts or pants. One intern is a short, large intern with glasses and short black hair; one is a tall, skinny intern with a goatee and long black hair (including bangs that cover his eyes); one is a fairly well-built intern with spiky hair; and the female intern is short and skinny with a unibrow, headset braces, and a shirt that is dramatically wrinkled due to not fitting her well. Although the spiky-haired intern (named Josh) is mutated in The Enchanted Franken-Forest and never returns again and Dakota also noticeably disappears after the fourth season, the remaining three interns are also featured in Total Drama All-Stars and Total Drama: Pahkitew Island.

Total Drama Island (2007)

CheftheIntern

Chef being forced to work as an intern.

Owen mentions at the beginning of the first challenge that shows like Total Drama Island have to have interns test the challenges to make sure they are "survivable." They then show a clip of Chef reluctantly testing the challenge, where Chris says that all of their interns are "in the hospital already."

In The Sucky Outdoors, Chris mentions that he "lost a couple of interns" to the bears living in the woods of Camp Wawanakwa. In addition, the bandanna intern appears as a pizza delivery guy who arrives at the Screaming Gophers' campsite with a pizza and has a brief line when he asks who the pizza is for. The Gophers then find out that it's only for the camera crew, much to their dismay.

In Who Can You Trust? during the cooking challenge, the bandanna intern jumps from the ceiling of the main lodge, spins in mid-air, and lands behind the podium like a stunt double. Immediately after, Chris pops up and the intern crawls away showing who was doing the impressive jump.

In Camp Castaways, Chris mentions the number of interns he had lost for a specific project, namely moving his sets into place. Also, while having fun with Chef, Chris considers sending the interns that are in the hospital a picture of them having a good time to insult them.

Snapshot 2009-02-09 16-31-47

The intern from the version of The Very Last Episode, Really! that aired in the United States.

In The Very Last Episode, Really!, a new intern is needed to test the final challenge, as Chris claims that all of their other interns had already died. However, while he is testing the challenge, he falls off and gets attacked by sharks.

In Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island, the bandanna intern has his hot air balloon hijacked by Courtney. Courtney also sees a man in a drive-through who later becomes an intern/cameraman. Both interns return in Total Drama Action.

Total Drama Action

In Riot on Set, two of the cameramen (the bandanna intern and the large intern) quit after the names of Gaffers and Grips are made fun of by the contestants. The bandanna intern speaks once more, angrily declaring, "I'm tired of getting no respect around here!" They do, however, return by Masters of Disasters. In Full Metal Drama two different interns (both of whom are apparently twins and dressed as orderlies) drag Izzy to the Lame-o-sine after her elimination and roughly throw her in.

In 3:10 to Crazytown when Chef is shown testing the horse-jumping challenge, the intern's hands are only shown on screen, but his screams are heard as Chef pushes him off of the platform. He was most likely injured or killed. In Masters of Disasters, the two cameramen from Riot on Set return despite apparently quitting and get close-ups of Owen after his jaw is broken.

Aftermath intern

An intern who has appeared in three of the Aftermath Episodes.

Starting with the The Aftermath: I, a new intern (who is actually Tyler's prototype design) is introduced and becomes the second season's most prominent intern. He is most commonly seen in all of the Aftermath segments with the exception of the final one. In the first, he is shown in a never-before-seen clip to be frightened of Izzy after she kicks Chef. Later in the same episode, he flees the stage when she reveals that she would hurt him the same way she hurt Chef.

The same intern is seen again in The Aftermath: II with a wheelbarrow of Trent's fanmail. Also in the episode, the large intern and the bandanna intern are seen in the rafters above the stage attempting to drop a spotlight on Geoff when he criticizes the lighting on set.

The blond intern has a line in The Aftermath: III when he is backstage telling Owen that he was supposed to be onstage. The intern also appeared in Mutiny on the Soundstage controlling the Monster that Duncan had to face in that episode. He does not appear in The Aftermath: IV, making that the first and only aftermath he did not appear in.

In Get a Clue, the two interns seen in Riot On Set and Masters of Disasters return once again very briefly, and both play zombies in Chris's badminton movie when both Lindsay and Duncan are watching it as a reward.

Manhunt20

The intern in Celebrity Manhunt's Total Drama Action Reunion Special.

Several interns from past episodes return in Celebrity Manhunt's Total Drama Action Reunion Special, and are seen to serve several different purposes. In the introduction for Celebrity Manhunt, several interns are seen, including the Canadian intern from The Very Last Episode, Really! even though he had supposedly died, as well as the large intern. On the set for one of Izzy's movies, the blond intern from the aftermath episodes returns and apparently is a director of photography. Izzy then goes ballistic (for apparently "no reason") and curses at the intern. He ends up running away crying. It is revealed by Josh and Blaineley that this intern had to go to therapy for months after this incident. In the first half of the special, the intern with the bandanna is a cameraman for Celebrity Manhunt and gets his own camera shoved onto his head by Eva during one of her outbursts at the paparazzi. In addition, he rides a skateboard all the way to Ezekiel's home on the farm. While there, he is heard speaking once again when he gives Ezekiel a little advice on how to be a true gangster. Later on, he is seen to supposedly be one of the contestants in Total Drama Dirtbags before it was revealed to be fake.

Also, the intern with the bandanna briefly appeared in an exclusive clip from Total Drama Action. Taking place after the events of One Million Bucks, B.C., Heather had successfully stolen a lock of Courtney's hair and, in the confessional, attempted to stick it to her head using some of the tar she had fallen into earlier. However, the intern suddenly rushed into the confessional and started wrestling Heather to get the lock of hair back, as the show had to obey Courtney due to her suing them. Although Heather resisted strongly, the intern eventually wrestled her down off-screen, snatched the lock of hair, and walked away.

Occasionally, the arms of interns are seen applying makeup to the contestants during their confession. In One Million Bucks, B.C., an intern applies bandages for Harold after he was attacked by giant beavers. In Dial M for Merger, an intern knocks Harold out cold with a nightstick while he is hiding the confessional.

Total Drama World Tour

Intern fanning chris egypt

An intern fanning Chris.

Starting this season, it seems that all interns wear an outfit similar to Chris' (with different colors) if they are not in a special costume for a challenge.

In Walk Like an Egyptian—Part 1, two interns appear when the cast arrives in Egypt, carrying Chris and treating him like a pharaoh. Later, one of the interns fans Chris with a giant leaf. The intern that is doing this looks like the intern from the aftermath shows in Total Drama Action.

In Walk Like an Egyptian—Part 2, the two interns were still treating Chris like a pharaoh, such as letting Chris sit on one of them like a chair. When Chef drops the urn full of scarab beetles, one intern runs away, while the other gets eaten alive by them. Later, when both Chris and Chef are at the finish line on the other side of the Nile River, Chris is seen with his feet on the dead intern's skeleton and using it as a footrest while Chef is similarly resting his feet on the back of the other intern who is still alive.

In Anything Yukon Do, I Can Do Better, two interns downstream get frozen in the icy Yukon river waters, as they were supposed to rescue contestants that fell into the water.

In Broadway, Baby!, a new intern is seen massaging Izzy in the first class compartment. The intern has blonde hair, a unibrow, green khaki shorts, and a shirt, very similar to the one that Chris wears but in a lighter tone.

In Aftermath: Bridgette Over Troubled Water, a brand new intern is seen along with the one from the previous episode. He is wearing the exact same outfit as the other except he wears a red shirt and brown shorts. They restrain Blaineley after she throws a temper tantrum and force her out of the aftermath show. These two interns are seen to be very strong and powerfully built, as both are tall, have gnarled faces, and were able to withstand Blaineley's brutal blows (one was kicked in the groin, and the other was punched in the face, but neither seemed fazed and they escorted Blaineley out of the show.

In Can't Help Falling in Louvre, a new intern appears painting Lindsay's toenails. His hair is brown, and his clothes resemble Chris'.

InternJMS

A female intern serving Chris and Chef.

In Jamaica Me Sweat, an intern tested the "Bobsled of Death" track, but Chris said he would be "out of commission" for ten months. He then briefly appeared in the infirmary along with Gwen and Owen, completely wrapped in a full body cast. His size and body shape made him appear to be the same intern from the Total Drama Action Aftermath episodes (and most likely was), even though he was mostly covered. He lied on a hospital bed moments before the heart monitor started issuing a long, monotone beep, implying that his heart stopped and he died opening his eyes upon hearing it. Several interns also appear to work in the infirmary where a dark skinned intern pushing Gwen in on a gurney inside the infirmary tent with Owen and Izzy. Outside, a female intern serves drinks to Chris and Chef. Her design is based on Katie's original design and the female avatar from the Best. Game. Ever.

Greece chris interns wrong information

Chris is upset that the interns gave him the wrong information in Greece's Pieces.

In Greece's Pieces, two interns are blamed for Chris being misinformed about the origin of the Olympics - which they are recreating - being in Italy. One is the intern who was seen in both the first Aftermath and Jamaica, and the other appeared to be the same one from the Total Drama Action Aftermath episodes, except much taller. Chris tells everyone to grab on to something except for the darker-skinned intern, the one who was apparently more responsible for the misinformation and was promptly thrown off the plane. The other intern is told to go gather some information from Greece, which is their new destination, and stands next to Chris the rest of the episode only to take the Drop of Shame at the end, as he was "eliminated" by Chris' choice. The Total Drama World Tour website only lists him as "This Intern," as similarly stated by Chris right before he pushed the intern out the door.

In The EX-Files, Heather talks to a bored looking intern in first class. This intern is identical to the one eliminated in the previous episode.

In Picnic at Hanging Dork, the same two interns from Greece are alive and well and back on the show once again. They bring in the emus for the first challenge. An emu pecks one intern's head and he glares at it in response. Later, two blonde identical interns come in to take an injured Sierra away on a stretcher.

In Aftermath Aftermayhem, an intern prevented a bear from following Gwen during the Aftermath. The dark skinned intern, along with the blonde intern with the unibrow were seen giving the contestants a Chris-in-a-can to do a challenge. During a game, Beth was forced to find an intern dressed as Jack the Ripper. Beth angrily chased the intern and had successfully captured him and this causes the intern to run away from her in fear. After Blaineley had won the challenge after she accidentally shouted the answer to what was Duncan's favorite band, Blaineley had refused to go on the total drama plane by saying no can make her go. That is, until she sees three interns with a bat, a sack, and a rope. Blaineley then runs off, but the interns managed to tie her up and put her on the plane.

In Niagara Brawls, interns were seen dragging contestants into the cargo hold so they could be ejected over the Niagara River.

Africa intern

An intern is shot by Chris as a demonstration.

Two interns appear in African Lying Safari. The first one is shot by Chris with a tranquilliser ball, to demonstrate its effects. He was later attacked, then dragged off by Ezekiel. The second was a cameraman, accidentally hit by Duncan while trying to capture Ezekiel.

In Rapa Phooey!, the two burly interns help Chef lift up the Easter Island statue that was knocked over by the plane's landing. However, when Chris calls Chef for assistance on the walkie-talkie, Chef drops the rope tied to the statue, causing it to fall back over and crush both interns.

In Awwwwww, Drumheller, Chris scolds the interns for accidentally burying the jet's oil supplies instead of the barrels of snakes and spiders they were supposed to dispose of. As punishment, Chris tips the barrel onto them, sending snakes and spiders all over the terrified interns. One intern escapes while the other is attacked by the animals.

In Planes, Trains, and Hot Air Mobiles, two of the interns load up the truck with the animals rounded up.

In Hawaiian Style, the dark-skinned burly intern is seen bringing Blaineley, who is in a body cast because she failed to open her parachute during the Chinese fake out episode. He is later seen bringing tea to calm Bruno the bear down. During the challenge, the dark skinned intern is seen tying up the Doberman Heather picked. The Doberman then barks at the intern, causing the intern to get scared and jump into the water in fear. The dark skinned intern along with the blonde intern are seen at the end bringing the prize for the contestants.

SplashedbyLavaIntern

An intern is splashed by lava in Hawaiian Punch while testing out the challenge.

In Hawaiian Punch, an intern in a heat-resistant suit put out the fire on the platform Cody and Alejandro fought on. He then sunk into the water on the sinking platform. Either this same intern or one in an identical suit threw a sample effigy into the volcano, getting splashed by the lava and running off screaming. He last appeared after the commercial break, bandaged head-to-toe and pushed in a wheelchair by Chef. Additionally, one more held up one of the large ice cubes on his back so that its coolness, blown by a fan, could keep Chris and Chef cool.

Also, the Duncan-prototype intern cleans the camera lens after Dakota kisses it, though he doesn't appear in any episodes.

The first intern (Josh) of the season appears in Bigger! Badder! Brutal-er!. This intern is wearing long khaki pants, a shirt like Chris's, but in red, and has spiky hair. Chris then takes the coconut juice that the intern is holding on a tray as a giant tentacle rises out of the water and smashes down onto the dock, taking the intern with it, though the intern survives the ordeal offscreen.

Toxic rat

The intern gives Lightning his team's animal.

In Truth or Laser Shark, a male intern gives Lightning his team's animal, the toxic rat. In Ice Ice Baby, Dakota returns to the competition due to her father bribing Chris into letting her return, but as an intern. It seems that all the interns in this season, including Dakota, wear the same outfit, which consists of a red shirt and green pants.

In Heroes vs. Villains, the Canadian intern from The Very Last Episode, Really!, implying that he survived the sharks that episode, appears as the demonstrator for the challenge. When he does the challenge, he gets scared of the shark-infested waters but Chef forcefully kicks him off the cliff. As he goes to the carriage, he has a bunch of scars on him. When he walks towards the carriage and falls in it, the intern from Total Drama: Revenge of the Island that has long black hair appears, moving the carriage to the left.

Chris holding the hungry interns.

The male intern with long black hair over his eyes and the female intern with a ponytail appear in Sundae Muddy Sundae having been starved by Chris when he "forgot" to feed them. Chris refers to the male intern as "What's-his-name" and the female intern as "Whozzit". The contestants were given the task to prepare ice cream sundaes for the interns to eat. In a twist at the end of the challenge; however, Chris says that the contestants have to eat their own sundae. One of the famished interns collapses onto the ground, though considering that they are later seen in following episodes well and healthy, it's likely they were fed afterwards.

Several interns appear in The Final Wreck-ening. The first intern is ordered by Chris to bring the un-shot contestants down; however, they get blown away just before he can do so. The interns last appear floating on a table out of the main lodge when the island sinks.

Total Drama Island (2024)

Sally is fired

A new intern named Sally is fired, allowing MK to come up with a new strategy.

The new interns introduced in the previous season of the reboot continue working this season. One of the interns helps Chris to land his helicopter in the Dock of Shame by providing directions but Chris crushes him with the door when he leaves the vehicle. Later on during the challenge, a new intern named Sally is quickly fired in The Pink Painter Strikes Again for using pink paint for the challenge as opposed to red like Chris wanted. Sally losing her job is what inspires MK's new strategy for the season.

In Taking It to the Rim Reaper, Chris states that six interns who had tested the bonus fourth slide for the challenge "didn't exactly survive," with that likely being the reason it was named "The Death Boot." After the challenge is over, MK sneaks to the production crew's area and steals the uniform which used to belong to Sally in order to pose as one of the interns.

MK at the morning production meeting

MK infiltrates the production team's meeting to gain advantage in the challenge.

In You Poor Saps, MK uses Sally's uniform and a fake moustache to attend the morning production meeting, where Chris and Chef tell the interns about what the challenge is going to be. This lets MK get a load of sap remover, stash it in the forest and then use it during the challenge on her teammates, letting Team Skunk Butt score their first victory through cheating.

In Fun Fight at the O'Cake Corral, the interns present the cooking ingredients.

In Haulin' n' Ballin', the intern Chris crushed in the season premiere retrieves Wayne when the fish supplier of Camp Wawanakwa arrives with his truck and reveals that Wayne was found by his boat floating adrift. The intern's name is revealed to be Bob by the supplier.
