Total Drama All Stars

OK so we got All Stars which gave us a closure to the Duncan, Courtney and Gwen Storyline. Although the two finalists wasnt the best choice. It was kind of based more around the newer cast sadly. honestly there are characters that are so annoying and they did Lindsay NO JUSTICE. Why wasnt Leshawna here? she deserves to win a season. However after all Stars we have the Atrocious Pathikew Island. Yes it was horrible and thats why i had to take a Star Away. no i know these were separate seasons, but it seems that they are together on this app so- Pathikew Island was so bad i couldnt even handle one episode. This is when Total Drama died. Like they could have done so much with the og cast. And i normally like the newer stuff. Honestly they should have had a season where Eva got more screen time.

This review encompasses Total Drama All Stars and Total Drama Pahkitew Island. Both series were alright but felt like they ran their course and rushed character development.

All Stars: Consists of a mix "original" cast members from Seasons 1-3 and the next generation, Revenge of the Island. This season seemed more tied to its roots of Total Drama Island with character dynamics and overall plot, but the execution was rather dull. Chris McLean ends up sucking the show dry of normalness. Disappointing use of characters like Mike and the original cast who are largely underused.

Pahkitew Island: 14 brand new contestants on a new island with familiar traits from Total Drama Island. Characters were either pretty interesting or just plain annoying. Chris McLean sucks and Chef is basically nonexistent. Challenges at first appear very interesting but somehow are not very useful for the storyline. Things stayed exciting towards the end with a few enjoyable moments, but the remaining cast becomes rather disappointing and limits the potential of the ending.

Unless you're a dedicated camper (Total Drama fan) neither of these seasons are particularly worth watching as they don't really add much to the series.

Another season of Total Drama with all the things we want from it.

I was a little put out hearing that it was just going to be at Wawanakwa again but I found this to be another enjoyable series pitting classic cast members against the Revenge cast.

It might have worked better if the revenge cast had been more established but it's still tons of fun to actually see two different casts collide even if there are missed opportunities in there.

The arc of Gwen and Courtneys developing relationship was the season's most memorable aspect but we got a formidable antagonist that kept things way interesting even among all the other former bad guys. The "good guys vs bad guys" gimmick really helped make the show seem like more than a rehash as we really see character relationships come to fruition.

They only problems for me were things it missed, but what is there is good.
