The Total Drama series

Cast seems cool for the most part.

That Sky reminds me of Drasna.◊

Sugar's like an eviler girl Owen, I'd be honestly surprised if she gets development.

Jasmine is literally my favorite character in Total Drama now. Okay, maybe up there with Noah. But Jasmine is SO COOL AAH

The only character I really want gone now that Leonard's out is Amy. She just seems too annoying for no reason. At least all the other villains were pretty cool...

Amy's out! That gambit Samey pulled off was marvelous. As Jasmine so eloquently put it, "Ah, the old switcheroo. Good one, Samey!"

Speaking of those two, I gotta say, their friendship is just so amazing. Jasmine and Samey provide perfect foils to one another.

I'm pleasantly surprised they're not taking the Zoke route for Skave. It feels more like a Cody/Gwen thing, except the feelings are kinda sorta reciprocated by Sky.

So I did read up on the spoilers and Sky really does come off as the Master of the Mixed Message.

I kind of want Samey to do a Face–Heel Turn, since we're sort of short of decent villain options. (I like Max, but come on, he's not really Big Bad material for this kind of show, and Amy is herself a lesser version of characters we've seen before.)

We all kind of knew the twins were either going to be eliminated simultaneously or get switched, right?

Apparently Shawn is also Peeta from The Hunger Games. I didn't think they'd reference that.

Also, way to go, Samey!

Like, the actor, or modeled after the character?

I think Explosivo just means in the sense that he pulled the same trick.

Although, I'm pretty sure painting yourself to look like the background is common enough to be a trope.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

It was a direct reference, though, because he mentioned that he got those skills from working at a bakery.

Oh, I didn't pick up on that part. Comes of not being that familiar with the Hinder Games beyond seeing the first movie.

I was going to say, isn't that guy played by Thor's brother or something? That would be a big coup for a little Canadian show like this. So far, it seems the most recognizable cast member for me's been Cameron was voiced by the Blue Tricera Ranger, and was nearly the same character, minus the levels of badass given by being mentored by Dr. Tommy Oliver. But I digress.

Well, goodbye Ella. Felt like it would go that way.

Definitely the way to go, though.

Ella totally rocked that elimination, and I'm super happy she went out in stride. She has got to return for the next musical season, seriously.

Did anyone else notice that one of the things the bear coughed up was Cody's shoe?

I think I'm really going to warm up to Sky. She's prettiful. Just hope they don't make her too unappealing.

Yeah, I thought that was pretty interesting. Maybe that's a nod to how he got mauled by the bear way back in season 1?

I'm kinda sad to see Ella gone, but I'm really happy that she went out on such a good note. Now I'm just hoping Sugar's next and that Jasmine and Shawn get together already.

Sky kind of feels like the new Zoey to me. She's someone you get the sense you're supposed identify with because she's "normal", but in the process gets stripped of any personality traits that might have made her interesting.

I have to agree with you there. I guess Sky's a BIT more interesting, but not enough for me to really care.

She has a bit more going for her than Zoey, in particular the fact that she is not literally Zoey and thus can't be accused of hogging the spotlight for two seasons, as well as the fact that her athleticism seems to actually come from her background instead of magically being granted to her because she got angry about something once.

Still, even in this season she's overshadowed by the similar-but-more-entertaining Jasmine, and I feel like Dave is being wasted on his romance with her.

While I'm going to stick it out to the finale, I think the series may have finally lost me. Feels like a lot of this set is either elimination bait or generally not that interesting, and the lack of a villain kind of removes direction from the plot. Everyone's kind of paired off with one or two characters they'll bother interacting with, giving not a lot of sense of what the main point of the season is.

Catchin up on some episodes on CN on TV.

It's moderately entertaining. But in the end it's just more of the same from season 1 just with different characters.

I think Shawn is an expy of Ezekiel/obvious

How so? The toque is the only similarity I've seen...

I think them meeting would be interesting though, would basically take his zombie fears to an entirely new level.

As for Topher going this episode, eh, predictable end to his arc.

I think that from this point out, any appearance by Ezekiel should be preceded by Chris getting a call from a frantic intern, that he's gotten loose again and is hunting him. I've a sort of headcanon that at this point, Ezekiel has only two thought in his mind, getting that million dollars he deserves, and killing Chris Maclean. Anything else, he's basically an animal at this point.

I'm waiting to see if they bring any Season 1-4-whatever characters back.

For whatever Final season they should bring back people from all casts. Or just have literally everybody on the show and eliminate a few people each episode.

So how is Pahkitew so far?

Is it better than All Stars?
