Overview

Total Drama: Pahkitew Island features an all-new cast of fourteen at an all-new location. They are split into two teams: the Pimâpotew Kinosewak (Floating Salmon) and the Wâneyihtam Maskwak (Confused Bears). Pahkitew Island is completely empty, and the new contestants must rough it in the wild. Every episode, the winners may receive invincibility and a meal from a sponsoring restaurant, and losers may be sent home via the Cannon of Shame. Once again, teen freaks, geeks, egos, and cowards smash, crash, and bash their way through horrifying challenges with one goal in mind: winning that one-million dollar prize!

Format

  • All-New Cast: This season features fourteen new contestants.
  • Out in the Woods: For the first time, the contestants don't live in predetermined cabins or trailers, forcing them to build or look for shelter, while also not being provided food.
  • Teams Determined by Luck: Before they got to the island, the contestants were given random parachutes to jump off a plane and land on the island. The ones with parachutes formed the Pimâpotew Kinosewak, while the ones with fake parachutes formed the Wâneyihtam Maskwak.
  • Merge Composition: The merge consisted of seven members.
  • Elimination Challenge: Both during the final four and final three, the contestant that lost in a challenge would automatically be eliminated.
  • Finalist Helpers/Hinderers: In the final challenge, the two finalists were each given an eliminated contestant to act as their helper, Midway through the challenge, the two helpers became hinderers, working against the finalists with the opportunity to split the money between themselves if neither finalist completed the challenge.

Notes

^a Although Ella was warned she would be disqualified if she sang, she did it in order to tame the bear for the team and save Dave's life. Sugar told Chris about it by writing an anonymous note, cancelling the elimination ceremony for the Pimâpotew Kinosewak.
^b Scarlett was disqualified by Chris after she tried to blow up the island and claim the million-dollar prize money.
^c After a psychotic Scarlett was eliminated, Max gloated about how he was the only true evil left on the island. Fed up with "evil" contestants, Chris disqualified him as well.
^d The ending varies depending on the location.
