Did you finish the S2 of the Total Drama Reboot (all the eps are out already) ? I did and while the season started strong the ending flopped badly imo.

Incoming spoilers (and long rant) if you haven't watched it yet:

The winner is not it I'm sorry. Wayne is a cool character but he had zero stand outs moments to justify his win. They tried to recreate Owen's win in Island but at least Owen was really strong in some challenges (including destroying the main villain Heather in the final 3 challenge). Wayne literally flopped hard in almost all of the challenges this season and then got hard carried by his best friend's boyfriend in the final 3 for his win. Also I don't understand how he got so many enthusiastic supporters when Raj and Bowie were the only characters he interacted with from that group, especially cause he didn't even need them as Bowie literally did almost all the work for him by himself.

Julia dominated this season but it felt hollow, she quite literally had no opposition left after she got Bowie booted off. Imagine if Heather got booted in the middle point of World Tour and Alejandro just freely dominated his way into a final 3 with the likes of DJ and Cody (which he somehow would've still lost just to have one of the good guys win). That's pretty much how I felt about the final 3 from this season. Mkulia (and their cheating conflict with Bowraj) did carry the first half, so I'm gonna give them that.

Priyaleb literally got turned into a Skave 2.0 with their flip floppity mess drama just without the "Keith" plot point at the end to bomb out their relationship completely. They turned Priya into a Courtney knock-off who's more obsessed with revenge and winning (even tho she already won a season) than her own boyfriend. She even seems to despise Caleb's personality and is only in love with the idea of having a hot boyfriend (just like Courtney seemed in love with the thrill of being with a bad boy than Duncan himself and we know how that relationship ended up). Honestly if they bring up this couple for another season they're def gonna have a huge messy break up, I just don't see them lasting with the way they've been portrayed in these last S2 eps.

Ngl but I actually enjoyed Ripaxel, even tho they were just the gross comedic relief side couple. Surprisingly Ripper treated Axel like a Queen (unlike Caleb who just kept embarrassing his girl over and over on international tv) and Axel stopped abusing him completely after they started dating, so they're unironically one of the healthiest TDI couples so far. And even tho they're the horny couple at least Ripper really does seem to have genuine feelings for her unlike Priya for Caleb.

And I really hated the Hockey Bros flanderization this season. Last season they were dumb himbos but they were still very competent in the team challenges, heck arguably the best overall from their team. But this season they literally got turned into man children who probably wouldn't be able to cross the street without Bowie around to take them by their hands. Which literally didn't make sense at all when this season was supposed to focus more on them than the last one.

They really had Millie go crazy in that one ep and almost kill Damien just to win a challenge, but honestly I kinda dig that. Her team was so boring that they needed at least one (secretly) unhinged member.

Bowie was clearly weaker as a character this season but he still served. Scary Girl was technically in only 2 episodes and you know she still SERVED. I didn't really care about the other characters this season tbf.

So overall it might still not be the worst season (I mean All Stars and Pahkitew still exist) but season 1 of the Reboot was def superior imo. While I'm not opposed to at least some of this cast coming back in a future season I really hope they create a new cast beforehand if they get the greenlight for new seasons cause they're already exhausting all the plotlines for this one and some of them already started to become flanderized. At the very least they should add new characters and change the location to shake things up if they still want to go ahead with this cast.

So Yes, I did finish Season 2

And much like season 1 I found it mid. I think Season 1 ended stronger, but started pretty weak. While Season 2 was the reverse

I did think it had a promising start, I even liked how Priya and Kaleb were set up for the drama. But after the reveal it kind of... fizzled out. Like they could have milked the drama more and Priya had a right to want revenge but Priya was never such a super angry revenge person before and it felt weird.

They turned Caleb into a complete idiot after they resolved the arc. He was smart, just not game show savvy. That was his thing.

I wouldnt call it anywhere CLOSE to the atrocity that was Skave. But it was a lot less fun. At least Priya calmed down at the end.

But the moment the season went down hill for me was when Damien got eliminated.

I really felt they were setting him up for something good in the character arc department but they didnt. I knew he was doomed the moment he found the immunity idol but it would have been a nice inversion to have HIM use it.

And lets be real, I didnt care about the final 3 at all, I knew Julia wasnt going to win because lets face it she is basically Diet Heather.

They even did something to her hair like Heather.

As for Wayne winning. I didnt care, it was going to be him or Caleb.

Season 2 could have used more Scary Girl. Every scene she was in was gold.

I also appreciated the tasteful cameos of Owen. MacArthur and the Tennis pros.

It wasnt anything awful, but i did find it fizzled out in the later half.

Thanks for the tags @authorjoydragon, @nanunanu22, @heavensweetheart!

1. Why did you choose your URL? I was a Teen Wolf blog for the longest time and Stydia is one of my all time favourite OTPs (i get mild Zutara vibes from them too btw 👀). So the banshee is Lydia Martin and her boy is Stiles Stilinski. 😌 Also it’s inspired by ‘The Horse and His Boy’ cuz I was reading Narnia at the time lol

2. Any side blogs? Yeah no way could I manage that. Y’all are all stuck with everything I wanna dump on here.

3. How long have you been on Tumblr? I joined around 2010/2011 I think? Took a very very long break after a few years and I’ve been back properly for about 2 months now.

4. Do you have a queue tag? No, I’ll reblog something when I see it and you guys can deal with the spam lmao I’m so sorry

5. Why did you start your blog in the first place? Hmm technically I created the account for HP, but I never really used it. A few months later I figured out how to actually use Tumblr and started as a Supernatural blog. (But I’ve always been slightly multifandom at least).

6. Why did you choose your icon? Hahaha Stydia again. I wanna update it tho, it’s been the same for YEARS. Might just change it to another Stydia icon tbf.

7. Why did you choose your header? Idt I have one.

8. What is your post with the most notes? I don’t really make my own posts much, although recently I’ve been dumping some of my atla/zk thoughts on here and y’all seem to agree???? OH wait, I checked, my top post is actual a SuperWhoLock thing so ummm kinda cringe not sharing lmao. Close second is this one and apparently this one is fourth by a very long gap.

9. How many mutuals do you have? No idea, but it’s a small enough number.

10. How many followers do you have? It’s 2k+ but I’m 100% sure most of them are dead blogs lmao, I’ve been here for a decade, remember?

11. How many people are you following? 82. Looking to follow more tho.

12. Have you ever made a shit post? Uhhh idts, like I said I don’t make too many original posts, unless my dumb atla opinions count

13. How often do you use Tumblr each day? Nanu said - “I think I’m addicted” and uhhhh MOOD (no really, it’s concerning).

14. Did you have a fight/argument with another blog? Uh I don’t think so. At best there’s been like 1 aggressive exchange of fandom opinions, but I try to avoid talking to people like that. I’m on this dumb website to hyperfixate on fictional characters so I can avoid thinking about my own life you know. It’s brain-off-time on Tumblr.

15. How do you feel about “you need to reblog this” posts? Meh. Kinda condescending, even when it is important info.

16. Do you like tag games? YES! Exactly what Nanu said above.

17. Do you like ask games? Yessss, I unironically love wasting my time on here.

18. Which of your Tumblr mutuals do you think is famous? Uhh most of my mututals (who are still active) are ATLA people and I’ve only been here 2 months so uhhhh idk who’s Tumblr famous here. But Joy mentioned a few who are also my mutuals so 😳 OH and @lotustiled follows me??????? I just really like their art ooof

19. Do you have a crush on a mutual? Hahaha I mean I love talking to you guys. And I’ve had one mutual for like 10 years now and they’ve been an IRL friend ever since so...friend-crush?

20. Tags idk i feel like a lot of you have been tagged already, so whichever moot sees this and wants to join in, go for it. Also since I already tagged @lotustiled above...do you do these types of things?

Thanks for the tag, @cacodaemonia!

1. Why did you choose your url?

The honest answer? I didn't have a clever idea so I looked to the right and saw my bookshelf (I was an avid reader as a kid and now) and then I looked at my cats, thus the name

2. Any side blogs?

Nah

3. How long have you been on Tumblr?

I'm not sure. I started it a few years ago, but wasn't very active until a year or two ago.

4. Do you have a queue tag?

No

5. Why did you start your blog in the first place?

I don't remember my original reason, but when I became more active it was because I wanted to be involved in the Star Wars fandom and have another place to inflict my fanfics on unsuspecting readers XD

6. Why did you choose your icon/pfp?

Because it's the best thing I've sketched and I'm stupidly proud of it

I just think it's cool

8. What’s your post with the most notes?

I don't really time it, maybe an hour or so?

14. Did you have a fight/argument with another blog once?

Nope, not about that shit

15. How do you feel about “you need to reblog this” posts?

I already have anxiety and use tumblr to escape. I reblog some that I believe in and want to help spread awareness about, but I don't like the pressure that comes from them

Y e s!! I love these!!

17. Do you like ask games?

I love those too!!
