''TDWT Reducks Redux'' is a FixFic for ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama World Tour'' by Creator/TheKoboldNecromancer, the FandomVIP best known for his ''Fanfic/TotalDramaComebackSeries.''

The seventeen contestants who originally qualified for ''World Tour'', plus Katie (now having to compete without Sadie for the first time), return for the third season to compete for $1,000,000. However, things are going to go quite differently from the canon season, with new storylines, no mandatory musical numbers, a new elimination order, modified team compositions (Katie now joins Team Amazon while Duncan and Ezekiel have switched teams), and plenty of shocking swerves along the way. If you're a fan of Harold, Bridgette, or Ezekiel, you will definitely be happy to know they are not the first ones eliminated this time. However, brace yourself however if you love Chris [=McLean=] and the way he runs the show.

You can read the story [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6376407/1/TDWT_Reducks_Redux here]]. Sadly, the fic died after its eighth chapter (which completed its version of the fourth canon episode) and has not been updated since 2013. While the author did announce plans to do a remake, nothing came out of it, and to this day, this version remains the only one.

----

!!This story shows examples of:
* NumberOneDime: Apparently, Ezekiel's hat has a lot of sentimental value to him, as it previously belonged to his grandfather and he gave it to Ezekiel before he died.
* AccidentalKiss: In the Yukon, Bridgette has one echoing her canonical incident with Alejandro, but this time it's with Ezekiel.
* AdaptationExpansion: Katie is added to the season's participating contestants.
* AdaptationNameChange: Team Chris is Really Really Really Really Hot is called Team Chris is Really Really Really Ugly in this fic, due to Izzy coming up with the name in response to Chris' mistreatment of Ezekiel rather than [[LoonyFan Sierra]] coming up with it.
* AdaptedOut: The mandatory singing element is removed outright, as Duncan uses privileges he earned from winning the previous season to veto Chris' proposal for mandatory musical numbers. However, the contestants do engage in song just for fun during the Yukon challenge when Lindsay suggests they do so.
* AmicableExes: [[spoiler:Owen and Izzy]] become this after the former decides the latter is too much for him to handle. [[spoiler:Izzy]] has no problem with the decision and is happy to remain friends.
* AndThereWasMuchRejoicing: When [[spoiler:Chris is eliminated]], the contestants celebrate and all begin to enjoy their time on the show much more greatly.
* AscendedExtra: Ezekiel, Harold, and Bridgette go from the first three contestants eliminated in the canon season to being some of the most focused characters in the story.
* AuthorAppeal
** The author ships Noah/Katie. According to WordOfGod, Katie's main role is to be TheHeart of Team Amazon, which is wild with emotions.
** The Bridgette/Harold, Bridgette/Ezekiel, and Ezekiel/Izzy ShipTease (despite the fact that Bridgette is still with Geoff in the story).
** Kobold clearly enjoyed [[spoiler:setting Chris up for a great fall]]. No KarmaHoudini there!
** Let's face it: half the reason this fic exists is just so Ezekiel fans can get a real season with him instead of that "Feral Zeke" storyline.
* BetterAsFriends: Ezekiel and Bridgette become this, due to the former having gotten over his feelings for the latter and now falling for Izzy instead. [[spoiler:This also occurs between Owen and Izzy]].
* DeadFic: As of July 2013, as confirmed by WordOfGod [[http://thekoboldnecromancer.deviantart.com/journal/TDWT-RRR-What-Was-Planned-349215010 here]], with him explaining that the project would be dropped in favor of a new version with the ''Revenge of the Island'' cast being among the season's newcomers (and Katie being removed in their place). Unfortunately, nothing came out of this new plan.
* DemotedToExtra: Alejandro and Sierra get far less focus than in the canon version of the season, same with Heather and Cody.
* FixFic: Of ''World Tour'', a season Kobold despises primarily for what it did to Ezekiel, his favourite character. However, other elements he has issues with are "fixed", such as the treatment of Team Victory (especially Bridgette and Harold, two other favorites of his) and the character of Alejandro (whom he despises with a burning passion).
* FunetikAksent: As in his previous fic ''Fanfic/LoveAintEasyItsEzzy'', Kobold writes Ezekiel's thick Canadian accent phonetically.
->'''Ezekiel:''' So, according to Izzy, girls woo'd love to have these... but fur some reason, I doo'nt think Bridgette woo'd really go fur them, eh.
* HumanSnowball: Tyler accidentally causes one in the Yukon that swallows up all of the contestants and their sleds.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: In the fourth chapter, [[spoiler:Tyler reluctantly agrees to end his relationship with Lindsay so that she can replace Chris as host and fulfill her dreams of hosting a TV show (since she cannot have any relationships with the contestants while hosting ''Total Drama'')]].
* InterspeciesRomance: Katie/Panda Cub ShipTease in Chapter 5, and Cody/Camel earlier. Neither is meant to be taken seriously, though.
* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: Chris [=McLean=], in spades. Kobold’s vehement loathing for the character shines in the massive amounts of humiliation and abuse he puts the character through, from getting fired as host to being eliminated from his own show. And WordOfGod is that things would have continued to get worse for the (ex-)Host with the Most were it not for the story becoming a DeadFic.
* KickTheDog: And while he's down for that matter! After [[spoiler:Leshawna ends her on-and-off relationship with Harold for good]], Duncan uses the opportunity to seize control of Harold's commercial for the challenge and direct it. The results entirely focus on Duncan bullying the depressed Harold and literally stepping all over him, as well as even kissing Leshawna right in front of him.
* KingIncognito: It turns out that [[spoiler:[[FanNickname Billy the Intern]]]] is actually [[spoiler:Chris’ boss pretending to be an intern]].
* LoveDodecahedron: If one takes those {{LoveTriangle}}s listed below and adds ShipTease with Tyler/Gwen, Duncan/Leshawna, Ezekiel’s crush on Bridgette and the fact that she’s still dating Geoff, Alejandro's plans to seduce Bridgette...
* LoveTriangle:
** The canonical Gwen/Duncan/Courtney one is present, albeit with much less focus (although Alejandro hints at some plans to charm Gwen into "following her heart").
** There are implications of Lindsay/Harold/Bridgette (although Harold acknowledges Bridgette's relationship with Geoff and begs for Geoff not to kill him in a confessional), Ezekiel/Bridgette/Geoff (although Ezekiel has much more respect for their relationship than he does in canon), ''and'' Ezekiel/Izzy/Owen (after Ezekiel gets over his feelings for Bridgette).
* MadeOfIron: Chef survives a fall from over 50 thousand feet into pavement and merely has to stay in the hospital for the rest of the day. He's perfectly fine once the contestants depart Japan.
* MoralityPet: DJ is this for Duncan, due to him being the only member of Team Victory he actually gets along with.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Bridgette and DJ both feel this way at the end of the Yukon challenge after accidentally kissing Ezekiel and hurting so many animals respectively. Owen reacts similarly when he accidentally breaks Noah's arm during the same challenge.
* MythologyGag: While in the Yukon, Bridgette tells Ezekiel that when her friends back home once dared her to kiss a pole and she got her tongue stuck on it, referencing what happened to her in canon.
* NoManLeftBehind: Declared by Tyler and Izzy in the third chapter when the two save Ezekiel from being eaten by crocodiles.
* OccidentalOtaku: This trait of Harold's is emphasized during their trip to Japan.
* OddFriendship:
** Sardonic bookworm Noah and BigFun optimist Owen, as per canon, although it's even more emphasized than it was in the canon season.
** Kindhearted BrainlessBeauty Lindsay and sadistic ScaryBlackMan Chef develop one as Chef guides Lindsay in running the show.
** Naive homeschooled farmboy Ezekiel and AxCrazy ManicPixieDreamGirl Izzy too, thanks to the two being on Team Chris together this time.
** GranolaGirl surfer Bridgette and nerdy Harold as well, largely over their mutual dislike of their teammate Duncan (who returns the enmity).
* OperationJealousy: Implied to be the reason why Duncan is hitting on so many girls other than Courtney.
* PowerTrio: Gwen, Bridgette, and Leshawna, who are always hanging together between challenges. Gwen even makes the two promise not to vote for Duncan if they lose, while Leshawna and Bridgette are concerned for how she is faring on the same team as Heather.
* RevengeFic: Has elements of this directed at [[spoiler:Chris]].
* ShipperOnDeck:
** Izzy for Ezekiel/Bridgette, despite Ezekiel's protests that Bridgette is already taken.
** Gwen ships Cody/Courtney, but it seems that she does it just to kill two birds with one stone.
* ShipSinking:
** Bridgette/Ezekiel, since Ezekiel didn't feel good about hitting on a girl who was already with someone.
** Like in canon, this is the case with [[spoiler:Owen/Izzy.]] Additionally, [[spoiler:Lindsay/Tyler is sunk, while Harold/Leshawna have the book closed on them for good this time.]]
* ShipTease: Over a dozen possible couples are teased, not even counting the {{Official Couple}}s in place at the start.
* ShoutOut: The blonde intern [[spoiler: and executive producer of the show]] is named [[VideoGame/Left4Dead William "Billy" Overbeck]].
* SongParody: In Chapter 8, the contestants sing a parody of Music/WeirdAlYankovic's "Skipper Dan" called "Yukon Sled Ride".
* SpotlightStealingSquad: Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, and Izzy get the most focus out of all the season's contestants, which is somewhat ironic given how the first three were the first contestants eliminated in the canon version.
* TheStationsOfTheCanon: DJ's animal curse plot still occurs (although it doesn't drag on for as long due to DJ eliminating himself early), Owen and Izzy still break up (although it occurs earlier and they become JustFriends), and Alejandro still schemes to get Harold and Bridgette eliminated in Japan and Yukon respectively (although his strategies don't pan out).
* TeamMemberInTheAdaptation: Duncan is put on Team Victory instead of Team Chris (and he's there from the start rather than joining at the halfway point, due to not quitting at the beginning this time), while the reverse applies to Ezekiel. Also, Katie (who did not participate in the canon season) is a member of Team Amazon.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Duncan for Team Victory and Alejandro for Team Chris.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Chris and Duncan are both much meaner and nastier than in the canon season, especially towards Ezekiel and Harold respectively.
* WelcomeToHell: [[spoiler:Chris says this to DJ when he captures him during his elimination.]]
* WhamEpisode: Chapter four, the end of the Egyptian challenge (a rare positive example). [[spoiler:Chris gets dethroned and Lindsay replaces his job as the host]].
* YouMustBeCold: Ezekiel to Izzy, after she jumps in the water during the Yukon challenge.
