#Bridgette was one of my favorites in tdi why are you doing this to her.....

[softichill]

Wow. I knew the writing was gonna be different going into Total Drama Action but this hurts

[twiixr4kidz]

random romantic headcannons of your favorite total drama character/s go !!

– bat anon 🦇 >:]]

oh hell yeah!! >:)) here's a couple of my favs <3

tdi dating hcs for my fav characters!!

cody (literally my all time favorite i love him):

he's kinda a dumbass

but a lovable one

he panics at any advances you make

he tries to act suave and totally fails

HE DOES THAT THING WHERE HE COMES UP TO YOU AND TRIES TO LEAN ON THE NEAREST OBJECT WHILE MAKING EYE CONTACT WITH YOU AND THEN HE FALLS AND YOU HAVE TO RUSH HIM TO THE ER CUZ HE JUST SHATTERED LIKE 7 BONES AND STARTED SPEAKING IN TONGUES

his love languages are physical touch and acts of service

aka he's super clingy and he does literally everything for you even though you don't need his help

he's a sweetheart :(( i love him

he is the type of mf to not make you a playlist, BUT BURN SONGS ONTO A CD FOR YOU AND USE SHARPIES TO DOODLE ON IT

he loves making little artsy things for you

izzy:

this bitch is batshit crazy and that's why i love her

imagine a calm, quiet life inside a cabin in the woods

okay, now throw that entire dream away

because izzy is so far from calm and quiet

this girl is an OUTLAW

she's always on the run and going on these bizarre adventures (LOL), and she's going to drag her wonderful partner with her

skydiving, jetskiing, face-planting off of a 70 foot tall mountain into a giant pool of cotton candy

you name it, she's going to do it with you

she's also very clingy; even when you're warm, she's going to be hanging off of you like a baby koala

she's bad at expressing her love for you but she makes you feel it through the things she does

she gives you like, awful nicknames

like they're just TERRIBLE but she thinks they're funny and likes the way you cringe when she calls you them

you have gotten called a "pookie wookie boo bear" in front of your entire close family and you still aren't sure if they realized she was being ironic

bridgette:

she's one of the most nonchalant partners you could ever ask for

she's so sweet? literal queenshit

she's a naturally pretty sporty person and she loves to share her passions with people she cares about, so you're going to play sports with her regardless

even if you totally suck, she's going to help you do your best

a sucker for having her hair played with

it literally puts her to sleep

run your fingers through her hair, brush it, style it, whatever

totally hogs the sheets though

loves doing skin care with you

the two of you are going to be sitting on her floor with face masks on while she paints your nails, and there's probably gonna be some shitty reality tv program blaring from a laptop and that's okay

duncan:

he's a risk-taker and a half

he loops you into all kinds of trouble, but intentionally and unintentionally and as duncan's partner, it's something you've gotten used to

he gets you lots of stuff

sometimes he pays for it, other times he doesn't, but that doesn't matter (or so he says)

"babe, are you sure this is safe?" "not at all, would holding my hand help?" "WHAT"

he's bad at words and awkward when it comes to physical affection but he does try

he loves spending time with you, whether it's late-night drives with the music blaring or WALKING through a mcdonald's drive-through

everything is better with you there

and even though he sucks at communicating it, he tries to show you how much he loves you all the time

even if it's not obvious

dj:

so vocal abt how much he loves you

words of affirmation are indeed his shit

he makes you feel so loved and appreciated; you're literally the person EVER in his eyes

and he's going to make you feel like the only person in the world

LOVES paying for like, super fancy outings for the two of you

he can and will find a reason to celebrate every saturday just so you two can go to a fancy upscale restaurant that you really like

he also adores spending time with you outside

just laying on a grassy, flower-covered hill in the sunlight, pointing out the shapes of clouds, or sitting on the porch before dinner as it pours

OH SPEAKING OF FLOWERS??

this man is like, a bouquet connoisseur

shows up to your house on random occasions and gives you flowers

why?

because he can <3

gwen:

WOAH

pretty goth girl <3

homegirl gives you so many snacks? you go over to her house once and you're completely loaded

like she's got a minifridge and everything

she can and will do your makeup too, if you want her to ofc

draws all sorts of pictures for you

she'll give you pages out of her sketchbook, little doodles on your arm, full-blown painted portraits of you, the whole thing

she also writes a lot so you can bet she's written at least 5 poems about you

she's like lowkey clingy? so she definitely texts you A LOT

BUT NOT IN A SCARY "TEXTING YOU 500 TIMES EVERY 10 MINUTES" KINDA WAY

she steals your clothes all the time

and if you're the same size in clothes? you guys are gonna be trading clothes all the time

she just loves dressing you up and buying you stuff she's so cool

owen:

LITERAL SUCKER FOR GIVING YOU THINGS

you're like, the only person he'll willingly share his food with

he also loves making food for you? and he's a really good cook

he's perfectly fine with having nights in the house; just chilling on the couch and watching movies and stuff like that

but he also loves leaving the house

he's a really chill person, and he's super fun to be around too? so while your relationship is pretty lax, it's also super hyper

just literal chaos

his love language is words of affirmations

homeboy talks you up and down about how attractive you are, how great you are to be around, how he wouldn't be complete without you

it's sickeningly sweet and you couldn't ask for anything else

HE PROBABLY TEASES YOU A LOT TOO??

HE'S SUPER TALL SO EVEN IF YOU'RE LIKE, AN INCH SHORTER THAN HIM, YOU'RE GOING TO BE THE BUTT OF "LOL SHORT" JOKES FOR THE ENTIRETY OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP AND ONWARD

harold:

he is such a nerd.

IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE

super awkward but a sucker for intimacy

he does. the same thing as cody where he tries to act suave and then fucks it up

except he doesn't fall over his feet and trip, he falls over his words and then gets embarrassed that he forgot how to talk

so easily flustered

he teases you relentless too, so just look at him in a certain way or something like that and he's gonna be like "oh fuck oh fuck ohfuckohfuckohfuck"

asks to play video games with you, and then kicks your ass

loves loves LOVES listening to you talk about your interests; he's super attentive and the sound of your voice is super comforting to him

he absolutely asks you questions about it too

[heathneycanon]

reasons why phobia factor fucking slaps

ok this lowkey just turned into me rambling abt phobia factor while i rewatched it. putting it under a read more bc it’s super long lmao

like, the entire first five minutes are the campers being friendly to each other?? and vulnerable, to a degree??? you know i love that shit

courtney and trent?? talk to each other?? like. okay they’re never in the same frame together unfortunately, but they do have like, two whole back and forth conversations.

also in that campfire scene at the beginning, cody and trent are sitting next to each other and there are some. good screencaps

“exSQUEEZE me?!” like cody. ur such a dork omfg

duncan vulnerability hours

lindsay asks what a standee is and trent explains it and doesn’t mock her/isn’t annoyed with her at all, in contrast to a lot of the other campers interacting with lindsay. i love them as friends SO much u all have no idea

harold’s little scene with the ninjas. i love him sm. why does he have nunchucks with him when he goes to the bathroom??

leshawna is afraid of spiders and she runs away screaming from. chef wearing a spider suit??? like i don’t love spiders but if a man i knew wearing a spider costume was calmly walking toward me i wouldn’t react the same way as i would to a real spider. anyway i think this is hilarious.

season one heather vulnerability hours.....

i mean, i really wish they’d actually shown her talking abt her fear at the campfire, rather than just having it told by gwen in the confessional, but i get why they did that. regardless that one scene right before the sumo wrestler charges at her where she’s literally shaking.... i want to give her a hug

side note i hope the sumo wrestler is okay he hit his head quite a few times

ok so. trent accidentally leaving gwen buried underground because he’s getting chased by a mime isn’t like. a sweet gwent moment. but it is one of their interactions that i remember most vividly from tdi lmfao

what is a cute gwent moment is trent like. kneeling next to her while chris is burying her. and the face he makes at chris when he jokes abt not digging her up..... i love them sm

also gwen sounds so fucking dramatic when they close the box she’s in like. “goodbye cruel world” gwen ur being buried for 5 minutes ur not dying sdfjlafskj i love her

duncan hyping dj up before he picks up the snake is so cute?? like he’s clapping for him and he’s got what i call “adorable duncan face” which is where his eyes are full circles and he’s smiling. i can remember him making this face at courtney, dj, and alejandro throughout the series and it’s just. ugh loving soft duncan hours

“ah! it blinked” “it means she likes you” sadie where are u getting this information

okay so i googled if this was true and the result i got was “snakes can’t blink” so first of all i have no clue where sadie pulled that fact from and i have even less of an idea of where chris got that fucking. blinking snake from. is that even a snake??

when dj picks up the snake and they all hype him up?????? i love the killer bass so much it’s unreal

more cute gwent moments... gwen and trent talking on the walkie talkies.. they’re so cute

when the mime pops up behind trent and he does that little scream.... it’s loving trent hours u guys

trent is so bothered by a mime literally just. being a mime. me too trent. me too.

duncan and the celine dion music store standee.... everything abt that scene

"DUDE SHE’S MADE OF CARDBOARD” tyler i love you

courtney genuinely saying that it’s okay if he can’t do it (when she was being harsh to dj about the snake earlier..... duncney is so good in tdi u guys)

and then theY HOLD HANDS GUYSSSS IM SOFT FOR THEM

and THAT is what gives duncan the encouragement he needs to go for it?? they’re so good.

his “okay, okay” right before going for it... duncan’s voice acting is so good in this episode omfg

THE MUSIC THAT PLAYS WHEN HE HUGS THE STANDEE AND THEN EVERYONE CHEERING ITS SUCH A GOOD SCENE

THE DUNCNEY HUG

“duncan, you’re awesome!” and the look of shock on his face at both the fact that he did it and that courtney’s hugging him...... have i mentioned i love duncney yet?? bc i do

i can’t believe i used to dislike duncney omfg

then when courtney realizes that she’s hugging him and steps back jafksdfjlsa she’s so cute

and then the rest of the bass come over and hype duncan up more like. i love how supportive they all are in this episode!!

trent is so excited when he finally gets the mime to leave him alone fakjldjfl like he didn’t have to ROAST the dude. but he did.

chris somehow owns a remote control hail cloud?

lindsay getting excited about the “baby cloud” and calling it over?? she’s so cute omfg

trent fucking. hates geoff. gwent has geoffphobia in tdi ig

when they dig up gwen and she throws the walkie talkie at his head but he doesn’t stop smiling..... your honor i love them

owen and izzy getting out of the plane and kissing the ground together..... adorable.

cody with a fucking. watermelon on his head and covered in trash scares bridgette out of the woods. that will never not be funny to me

THAT ONE FUCKING SCENE. WHERE SADIE AND LINDSAY HYPE EACH OTHER UP. THAT MAY BE ONE OF MY FAVORITE SCENES IN THE ENTIRE SERIES. I LOVE THEM SM

the only bad thing abt this ep- tyler should have gotten the fucking point. he completed the challenge. i love courtney, but realistically, she should have gone home this ep and tyler should have stayed.

bridgette hyping tyler up...... im soft they should be friends

“quit being such a girl” courtney im sorry but the only reason you’re still in the game rn is because ezekiel made sexist comments in episode one. what are u saying lmfao

tyler and heather’s reactions to their fears rly make me think. bc like. most of the other campers have a more outward, loud reaction, maybe scream and run away. a couple are just a little wigged out. gwen gets a little snippy and is clearly super freaked out as well. but tyler and heather just. completely shut down. like, curled up in a ball, nonverbal, and shaking. makes u think.

why did cody need a calculator to figure out that the score was 7/3....... cody is canon lgbt+ bc he can’t do basic math without a calculator confirmed

also regardless of how little sense that made. at least that screencap gave us commie cody

when gwen starts trying to psych courtney out and heather like. gasps and looks shocked..... i like to think that heather feels a little bad for courtney here. heathney real.

duncan and bridgette hyping courtney up..... i love the killer bass so much omfg

courtney looks so sad when she walks away from the jelly.......

and then in the confessional right after?? she’s like. crying a little bit :( and she’s beating herself up abt it like..... :( courtney no

LITERALLY she’s like “how could i be so weak” “i deserve to go home” “you’re pathetic” (to herself) and then tells herself to show some confidence and then. she just starts crying again. and then slaps herself?? GOD I FUCKING LOVE COURTNEY SHE’S SO HARD ON HERSELF

owen just. hangin out in the tub of jelly. i love u, u wild dude. fuckin sit in that green jelly. loving owen hours

the little look that courtney and tyler give each other when they’re the last two without marshmallows..... half solidarity half “i don’t want to be the one going home”. i love them sm :(

i KNOW i said this earlier but. tyler should NOT have gone home this episode!!!!!! only bad thing abt this ep

all the fuckin chicken puns are a little bit funny tho

“he won’t be flying high tonight” bridgette chickens can’t fly

when courtney goes ���okay, that’s enough” like. tyler’s not even there at this point but she’s defending him. maybe it’s because she still feels she should have gone home instead? maybe it’s because of that little bit of solidarity she felt for him when they were the final two without a marshmallow? maybe i’m reading too much into this? but idk. i think it’s sweet

okay no i have another complaint. what the fuck was the whole boat ride for tyler?? like when sadie gets eliminated the surprise she gets is that katie is on the boat. when tyler is on the boat, CRYING, after literally none of his teammates came to see him off, after he LITERALLY COMPLETED THE CHALLENGE BUT DIDN’T GET CREDIT FOR IT. the fucking. CHICKENS POP OUT?????? tyler deserved better

also some of the challenges were a lot easier, or at the very least, harder to fail than others this ep. i love it but come on. lindsay and sadie vs like. gwen vs owen and izzy vs dj. there were very different time limits, actual fright level, ability to back out once they were doing the challenge.... not a fair challenge

also uhm. if we’re being technical tyler and heather had the exact same reaction to their fears, so why did heather get a point and tyler didn’t? if the chicken had run at him, would he have won? smh

i do love this episode so much but. i had a couple complaints

okay finally lindsay’s little confessional to tyler where she blows him a kiss.... they’re so adorable lyler rights!!

[prettyboylovemail]

Thoughts on Gwen from Total Drama? Is she really the worst character ever?

 Hi there~ Thanks for asking! :D

I have a lot of thoughts on her, so I hope you don’t mind a long answer, anon ^^;;;

I honestly don’t understand why so many people hate Gwen so much. I really like her a lot. She was always my favorite (along with Noah) ever since I first watched TDI. We have a lot of things in common, so I relate to her a lot. I’m not going to say she’s perfect, but... she really didn’t do anything wrong?? Sure, she made some mistakes, but she’s human. And I don’t think it’s right to demonize her so heavily because of the drama she was involved with.

Season 1 Gwen is the best. She’s sarcastic and witty, but also has a soft side. Her relationship with Trent was my absolute favorite TD OTP. They were so sweet together and it’s a shame that Fresh TV had to ruin them in Season 2 (I’ll get to that in a sec). Gwen came on the show with a gloomy attitude and didn’t intend to make any friends, but watching her bond with Leshawna, Bridgette, Cody (despite him trying to hit on her), Duncan, and later on, Geoff, was all really heartwarming. I especially love her friendships with Leshawna and Geoff. Season 1 Gwen really was Top Tier and I feel like most people in the TD fandom agree.

Then came Season 2 and suddenly everyone started disliking her, both in-universe and also in the fandom. She started off the season really well, dating Trent and doing well in the challenges. But once Trent started getting really obsessive with her (as well as his dumb Number 9 tick, that was AWFUL), he started throwing the challenges for her and letting her team win. Gwen didn’t want him purposefully losing for her and the fact that he was starting to go crazy was really getting to her, as it should have. So she did the responsible thing and broke up with him. Sure, it was sad, because their relationship started off so strong, but what else was she supposed to do? He was the one getting way out of hand, and it’s realistic that she would’ve broken things off with him because of it. She didn’t want for him to be voted off, but when she was cornered by Trent’s team, she felt like she really had no choice but to let them get rid of him. But what really frustrates me is that the team continued to make Gwen feel bad about it and blamed her for Trent throwing the challenges, when it really wasn’t her fault at all! She tried to tell Trent to stop, but he wouldn’t listen to her. The entirety of the Season 2 Gwen drama was Trent’s fault, and his sob story about why Number 9 is his lucky number is NOT enough to make up for everything else. None of that was Gwen’s responsibility. She did what she was supposed to do and everyone hated her for it. Also, Courtney started her “Gwen is trying to steal Duncan from me” vendetta this season for literally no reason and that’s bullshit. Gwen and Duncan really weren’t a thing until Season 3, but the show tried to pretend that Gwen was crushing on him because they were friends and they chatted like three times onscreen.

Now we’re onto Season 3, where everyone despised Gwen because of the love triangle. I should start by saying that the Courtney x Duncan x Gwen fiasco is really poorly written and was completely unnecessary. I hate the way they went about it and if it were up to me, I’d get rid of it entirely. But the reasons why I don’t like it are kinda different from the rest of the fandom’s opinions. I don’t think Duncan should’ve been with either of them. I loved Duncan x Courtney in Season 1 because they had a really good buildup with great chemistry and the two of them worked really well with the “opposites attract” trope. But they were completely ruined in Season 2 when Courtney became super overcontrolling and tried to change Duncan into the boyfriend that she thought was “good enough”, which is already a completely toxic mindset and that put me off of Courtney for the rest of the show. She was already pretty bossy and annoying in Season 1, but I liked her because Duncan helped to balance and mellow her out. But alas, she ruined it and any good chance of a relationship between Duncan and her shattered. Then, Gwen came into the picture and things did not get any better. Instead of just keeping Duncan and Courtney broken up, they pulled the “off and on” bullshit between them, having them break up and then putting them back together again like 3 times. However, when Gwen and Duncan start their relationship in Season 3, Courtney and Duncan were not together. When Duncan returned to the show, Courtney automatically assumed that he’d just take her back and began acting like nothing had ever happened. But Duncan was very clearly not interested in her, and had his sights set on Gwen. While yes, Duncan never explicitly told Courtney off and that he wasn’t going to date her and yes, that is absolutely on him, he didn’t really act like a boyfriend to Courtney at all and went out of his way to avoid her. So when he and Gwen kissed, everyone acted like it was Gwen’s fault and that she’d “stolen” Courtney’s boyfriend, when really, they weren’t dating in the first place (something that Gwen later points out in All Stars).

And then comes Season 5: All Stars. This is not a good season. Everyone’s characters are messed up and the entire narrative is a mess. But, Gwen in this season did everything she could to make up with Courtney. She (rightfully) dumped Duncan and then spent every day trying to do nice things for Courtney in hopes that she’d see how truly sorry she was for hurting her and damaging their friendship (which wasn’t even Gwen’s fault in the first place and she had no reason to apologize, but whatever, go off I guess). But again, it was Courtney who kept refusing to forgive her and kept holding onto her delusional grudges. They did eventually make-up, but even that was short lived as Courtney still planned to get rid of her in secret, so that was essentially useless.

I apologize this got a lot longer than I had expected it to, but I have a LOT of thoughts about this show that I never get to talk about lolol. I really appreciate you asking and thank you to anyone who read through the whole thing XD

Anyways, Stan Gwen Total Drama

[mamawolfblood]

Though he didn't know it yet Chris Mclean was in for a shocking revelation. One of the campers is not exactly just some rando kid. This camper is his kid and she is out to expose it.

Name : Iris  Escalona

Age 16

Eye color green

Caramel skin

Black hair that she keeps in a high ponytail. A Cherokee rose on the left side of the hair tie.

Iris is 5ft 8",135lb

Out fit-White tanktop with the alchemists symbol blue acid washed jean shorts black converses

Iris has a dark sense of humor. She loves horror,pranks,is resourceful. Iris is not above smashing some skulls together. She is not quick to anger but Heather pushes a lot of her buttons.

All her life she just wanted Chris to know she was alive. Her mother never gave the reason why she left. She is the oldest of seven children.

____chapter5pt1____

Chris: Last time on Total Drama Island… The Killer Bass finally dodged their pathetic losing streak against The Screaming Gophers. There were bruises, tears, risky moves, and dangerous alliances. And in the end, it was Noah the know-it-all who didn’t see it coming. This week, another challenge will send one more camper on a cruise to Loserville. Population: Four. Who will sink? And who will stay afloat? Find out right now on Total. Drama. Island!

Iris walked back into the cabin after a shower. "Oh no this is bad. Im out of fake tan already." Lindsay said concerned. "Then go ger a real tan." Iris said putting her stuff away. "Oh its so tragic" Gwen said sarcastically looking a little more alive today. "Now I have to actually, like, suntan. In the sun! Do you realize how shriveled and wrinkly that can make your skin? Oh, you totally do." Lindsay said now by Gwen. I roll my eyes placing my hair in a ponytail. "See you ladies in the mess hall." Iris said leaving the crazy. "Oh off to find your delinquent boy toy. " Heather tried to get under my skin. "He at least I have a joystick. You should find one maybe you wouldn't be a stuck up bitch all the time." The girls laughed as I left. "That white girl is alright in my book." Leshawna said.

 [over loudspeaker]: "All right, campers! Enough beauty sleep! Time to show us what you’re made of!" Chris said

The campers made it to a make shift out door theater.

(Confessionals)

Iris

"I actually have a good feeling about this. Ever since I was little Dad and mom would take me to see musical and plays. I grew up a theater kid just something about it made it so magical."

*static*

(End of Confessionals)

Lindsay: Are we gonna see a musical? I love musicals. Especially the ones with singing and dancing. Heh." She asked amazed. I had to chuckle at this poor girl.

Trent: Gwen! Saved you a seat." He said moving aside for her. That is adorable I'm happy for them.

Gwen: "Thanks." She said sitting down next to him.

Cody: "W-W-Whoa! Uh, heh." Oh Cody you poor soul. She wont go for you give up already.

*Lindsay blows kiss *

Uhoh someone is braking the rules hahaha poor girl can't see the bitch she is helping.

*Heather turns and waves her ponytail in Lindsay's face. *

As I said bitch.

Lindsay: Oh! [spits out a wave of Heather's hair] "Hey Lindsay come sit with Me and Duncan." I said she got up and sat with us.

Chris: Welcome to our brand new deluxe state-of-the-art outdoor amphitheater! Okay, this week’s challenge is a summer camp favorite. A talent contest!" This made me happy.

Owen: Yes! Awesome!

Chris: Each team has eight hours to pick their three most talented campers.[Katie and Sadie squeal.] These three will represent them in the show tonight. Sing, dance, juggle. Anything goes, as long as it’s legal.[Duncan snaps his fingers.] You’ll be judged by our resident talent scout, former DJ, VJ, and rap legend, Grand Master Chef, who will show his approval via the Chef-o-Meter.[ding ding ding ding ding ding] The team that loses will send one camper home tonight. Good luck.

[whistle blows]

Heather started saying she was the captain. "Who said this Chika" I asked Gwen second it. "Beth and Lindsay"She said crossing her arms. "Fear is not the way to go Heather." I said and everyone backed me. "We shall see halfbreed." She said as I sat down .

It was Trent,Heather and Iris in the talent show for the Gophers.

For the Bass it was Courtney, DJ, Geoff.

Why we were killing time watching the other talents. Heather got ahold of some secrets that she was about to spill.

Cody: What you got there, a journal?

Gwen: Beat it.

Cody: Oh, I get it. Yeah, it’s private, huh? I’m down with that, yeah. It’s cool, brah.

Gwen: What part of beat it don’t you understand?

Cody: [sniffs]

Gwen: What are you, some kind of freak?

Cody: Y-you just… smell… really… pretty.

Gwen: It’s just… soap.

[guitar playing]

Gwen: I won’t even ask.

[guitar playing resumes]

Heather: Look! The first hook up of the season.

Gwen [sarcasticaly]: Oh yeah. We’re going at it big time. I need a swim just to cool off.

[door slams]

[door slams]

Cody groans

Trent: Gwen, wait up! I’ll come with you.

Gwen: Sure. I mean… whatever.

Chris [loudly]: It’s the TDI Talent Extravaganza! [normal voice] Welcome to the very first Camp Wawanakwa… Talent Contest. Where six campers will showcase their mad skills and desperately try not to humiliate themselves. First up for the Screaming Gophers… is Iris.

Iris walks out (a outfit that looks like Melanie from pokemon 2000. The Island maiden.) She started to play on her Ocarina my heart will go on.

It got a seven on the Chef-o-Meter.

Chris: First up for the Killer Bass… make some noise for the big guy! DJ!

[clapping]

Tyler: Woo-hoo!

Katie and Sadie: Yaaaay! Wooo!

[spiritual music]

[swirls]

[whips]

[thud]

Duncan: Ooh-hoo-hoo…

Katie: Gah!

[stretching]

[snaps]

Chris: Dainty and yet masculine. Let’s see what Grand Master Chef thinks.

[ding ding ding]

Chris: Not much.

Chris: So, with two down and four acts to go, it’s the Screaming Gophers… screaming ahead. Next on deck… Trent. Take it away, my bro.

Trent: This one goes out to someone special here at camp.

[guitar playing]

[Trent]

They say that we’ve only got summer

And I say that’s really a bummer.

But we’ll swim in the sun and have lots of fun…

It’ll just be the two of us…

Nothing to do… just hang…

So let me say only this…

Stick around… for just one kiss…

[clapping]

[ding ding ding]

Chris: Nice work! I’m liking your style, dude. And so does Grand Master Chef!

[clapping]

Chris: All right, quit hogging my light, buddy.

[objects tumbling]

Chris: Three down and three to go and the Killer Bass are totally sucking so far. Let’s hear it for Bridgette!

[clapping]

Courtney: Are you sure you can do this?

[stomach rumbling]

Bridgette[with her stomach rumbling]: Ooh. Definitely. No, uh, I’m great. Really. [She burps a few times]

[splash]

Screaming Gophers gasp and moan

Bridgette moans and projectile vomits loudly

Courtney and Heather gasp

Owen: I’m hit! I’m hit!

Bridgette projectile vomits loudly

Katie screams and vomits

Bridgette projectile vomits loudly

Lindsay [loudly] :Hey, puke on your own boyfriend!

Heather: On your own what, Lindsay?

Lindsay [quickly]: I didn’t say, boyfriend.

Chris [nasally] :Clean up in aisle three, four, five, and six! [normally] In the meantime, we’ll take a short break to hose the joint down.

[elevator music]

(Confessional: Bridgette)

Bridgette: Going home won’t be so bad… I-I can always work at the surf shack.

(Confessional Off)

Chris [loudly] : Welcome back to the TDI Talent Extravaganza! [normally] Welcome back. Okay. So in a strange turn of events, Bridgette’s chunk-blowing fest registered two thumbs up by Grand Master Chef. But, it’s not enough to pull ahead the Screaming Gophers, who held the lead with Trent’s love song. So, without further delay, here she is for the leaders… Heather!

[clapping]

Heather: Originally, I was going to dance for you. But instead, I want to celebrate team spirit, with a collaboration.

Iris saw what was in her hand. She started sweating.

Heather: So, with words by Gwen, performance by me, enjoy. [clears throat] Originally I thought he would be different. Even though mom says that my father and I are alike I don't see it. He said I remind him of someone her knew long ago but she left. I found that odd because I was alwats told he left. It doesn't matter either way because I know that Chris Mclean is 100% my biological father. " she said then handing my birth certificate to Chris who looked at me shocked. I got up and ran. Thats not how I wanted him to find out.

Heather: Thank you.

Courtney: [to Bridgette] That was so mean.

Bridgette: Seriously.

Chris: Well then, it’s down to the final act of the night. Can Geoff and his rad stunts turn it around? I seriously doubt it. Let’s find out.

[crashes]

Geoff: Whoa… that kinda wrecks the ride.

Bridgette [nervously] : Now what?! We have to send someone out there or we’re going to lose this!

My Choice- I’m just using seasons 1-3. I haven’t re-watched 5 since it aired, but I don’t think it affected these standings. Ridonculous Race didn’t affect these either

1- Duncan- Duncan has been my love since episode one. So he was definitely getting a top three spot. We got so much characterization from him though, making the merge every season. Of course characterization is how I like you or not. Plus I just loved his bad boy but secretly good side, it was a fun line to see throughout the seasons.

2- Noah- I love his sarcasm. He’s been my favorite for about five years or so, whenever I started becoming really sarcastic.

3- Lindsay- Honestly, I’ve been re-watching and really love Lindsay. I wanted to bump her up higher, but I love the other two as well but for longer. Though just saying that Lindsay could honestly have made a contest for number 1 (Sorry Noah you were either 2 or 3), if I hadn’t loved Duncan since episode 1. Her TDI elimination deserves it’s own spot.

4- Heather- If you asked me to make this in 2008, now way would Heather have been anywhere but the bottom. Season 3 though with the introduction of Al made it so you wanted Heather to win, at least for me to win. As I rewatch the first season, I do have to respect her playing the game for all the times except for Lindsay’s elimination, because as Duncan said “that’s cold”. I do like her manipulation tactics in the game.

5- Gwen- Gwen I always felt was the sane character of TDI when she was first introduced. Which to childhood me, was not what i thought of for goths. I thought of them as scary (like everyone’s reaction to Ennui and Crimson’s outfits in the air guitar challenge from RR). She just seemed like an honest, relateable character.

6- Al- Al is like Justin 2.0. I felt like Justin disappointed me as a villain (more in his section), but Al improved. Al was able to take his looks and his words to turn himself into a threat. He also knew how to play the game as well as Heather, if not better. He made me start to cheer for Heather, something I used to think impossible. At the same time, I was cheering for him. What can I say, he did his job good.

7- Owen- I loved Owen as the comedic relief. Though sometimes I thought the fart jokes were over used, he provided some other great examples, like Mr. Coconut (The real number one of this list. I forgot to add him and renumbering is too much work). Like Gwen, he seemed like a relateable guy that you might hang out with in real life. I mean I love Duncan, but he’s not the kind you’d hang out with. Owen you would. I also loved to see him in all of the alliances or friendships he had.

8- Cody- I loved Cody season three. He turned into someone I came to love that I was rather indifferent towards earlier. After Duncan got eliminated, I wanted him to be the winner. He’s just a fun, awkward, dork, and who doesn’t love someone like that?

9- Izzy- Can’t deny that Izzy was whack. That’s what made it fun to watch her. She started off as slightly crazy, and even season one had her as on hte RCMP list. I also really love how she was able to cheat the system to come back in season two by competing as E-Scope, not Izzy. My only problem was that you knew she was always going to be eliminated and come back, after the first season. She was never a competitor that I felt you honestly would think would win. She was fun to watch, but because of that fact, it limits her.

10- Leshawna- I loved Leshawna and Heather’s fights, mostly in season one. I felt like that was where they were the strongest. Throwing her off the cliff was great.

11- Geoff- Geoff was a bro, and not like the douchy frat-boy bro. He was the relateable one that you could probably be friends with. I don’t like him as much as the ones above, but he’s nice and relatable, so he’s got to be higher up.

12- Harold- Harold was someone I grew to like over re-runs. I used to like Courtney, so he was disliked for quite a while for eliminating her. I actually like that now, not because of my stance on Courtney. I liked that because it made Harold seem like he could have actually been a threat to others in the competition with doing that. Sadly he gets eliminated the next episode and doesn’t get a chance to act similar to this again. I would’ve loved to see a new direction of him to be an evil dork, but it wasn’t done.

13- Courtney- I know some people will hate this, but Courtney is my middle. She’s not here because I’m indifferent towards her. She’s here because sometimes I like her, like most of TDI, and other times she would get on my last nerve. I’d think about it for the week after the episode. She’s a character that I want to like when I see season one, but in the other seasons I start to lose that interest. So 13 was halfway since she’s either liked or my bottom.

14- DJ- DJ is a fine character. I liked seeing him in the guys’ alliance. Though I did get confused why he’d help or be okay with pulling pranks on Harold then later turned into the ultimate sweetheart. Like it almost seemed out of character, but it’s how it started. It could’ve worked if he saw Momma and she told him she was disappointed with him, thus why he turned more soft. But it sometimes seemed like that edge of him was gone. I mean you can pull a prank but be an over all nice person, but the 2&3 seasons didn’t want that to be for DJ.

15- Sierra- Sierra was an alright character. I mean I understand her obsession with tv characters, but sometimes it got annoying. Since she only appeared in episodes with Cody, we didn’t get much to see her without that. Yeah she’s a X generation basket weaver, but that’s not personality. I know 5 dealt with that more, but I’m not including that here. She’s also middle because she only got one season of the original three to develop her. If she had more, she might have moved positions.

16- Tyler- I loved him with Lindsay, or the time before when he tried to flirt with her. Dumb jock who was a comedic relief when he got the pain. I just felt like he got sent home so early in season 1, and didn’t compete in 2 that it limited his character. He got to grow in 4, but he didn’t get enough.

17-  Bridgette- Bridgette I used to really like when I first watched the series, mostly in the time of season one. I lost that attraction as time went on and never gained it back. I don’t hate Bridgette, I’m just not necessarily a fan of hers. She’s nice, but eh, I don’t feel her.

18- Trent- I used to love Trent, especially season one. Well until that Heather kiss. Yes Heather kisses him, but he melds in, no rejection. Had he pushed her away I would’ve liked him longer. I loved that ship as a child. Also season two I didn’t like the whole number nine thing. I think it would’ve been cool if it was executed better. You first see Trent’s obsession and he’s eliminated the next episode later. I felt like it was thrown in last second as a reason to get rid of him. Good idea, execution not so much. Also the fact that he wasn’t cool with Gwen and Duncan being friends. Like yeah I know that was a jump from last season, but that was only two days after the last special. Clearly you would’ve all been at playa des losers, and seen it grow. (You the longest since you were the first eliminated out of the three). Like there wasn’t really much space for them to hide and start anything without you or the cameras. Plus in a house of 22 teens, no one would’ve seen anything (Looking to Tyler at season 3). Had Trent stayed calm like season 1, I would’ve liked him more. 

19- Zeke- Zeke I don’t necessarily like. As himself he’s pretty neutral. Yeah I didn’t appreciate the sexist comment, but you do see him realize his mistake by the episode between seasons 1 and 2. He can agree to not be sexist to be part of a team. So he does get growth. Obviously he’s always eliminated first episode so not much characterization is given to him so he can’t be high. I just liked the transformation he got as a fun thing to watch. It brought in fun to the series. 

20- Beth- I don’t really have anything for or against Beth. She’s not my favorite but is in no way a bad character. She’s here because everyone else I like more (well except when I don’t for Courtney), and basically everyone below I dislike. Just need some neutral ground here. She’s the bottom here for the ones I’m fine with but don’t hate because I’ve just never got into liking her. Not like dislike form of not liking, I just don’t necessarily care for her one way or another.

21- Eva- Eva actually seems like she could have been a fun character to watch. Never someone I’d probably like, but her anger was fun to watch. Only problem was she basically never appeared in the series, and all she was only ever angry. Katie and Sadie could be dumb but have a fight, but Eva didn’t get the chance. She had potential and didn’t annoy me so she’s up here.

22- Katie- Katie and Sadie are two characters that pretty much equally annoy me. They were tolerable for like the two seconds they were introduced or whatever but not really otherwise. Katie is ranked higher only because from one of the later episodes when she calls Sadie too fat for the bus, it made me laugh. Just gave me one line to like her more so she’s just so slightly higher.

23- Justin- I just never felt anything with Justin except annoyance. I mean season one he doesn’t speak and is a theme song and was tolerable for not lasting long, but season 2 I just remember being annoyed by him. He was someone I was open to liking, but it came off to annoy me. Only because of Katie’s one line making me laugh, thus a moment of not annoyance is why she’s higher.

24- Sadie- Sadie along with Katie, are just frankly annoying and irritating. Sadie had more screen time and failed to impress me in any way, shape, or form.

25- Blaineley- Blaineley’s here because she wasn’t on the show that long. She’s appeared in ten episodes on the series and only spoken in six. Only two of these was she a contestant. I live in America, where we never saw the aftermaths (You had to know they were online and I didn’t. Never saw in reference to being on tv.) So her speaking lines for me were shorter. I just felt like with Celebrity Manhunt she was boring, and I only got two more speaking episodes from her. She didn’t wow me with her words enough to be higher because she didn’t have much of a character, though more than Justin in TDI.
