History DethroningMoment / TotalDrama

* Tropers/{{toadgamer80}}: Same episode as mentioned above, but Mal and your friendly neighborhood MarySue, Zoey, making the final two. Especially when a trailer outright spoiled that [[spoiler: Mal would revert back to Mike]], even if it wasn't obvious, plus neither of them are original contestants which makes it completely pointless for ''All-Stars''. And Courtney, who would have been a prime candidate to win, was completely destroyed in the span of a single episode. Despite most of the Internet despising Zoey, she has tons of younger fans because she's "nice" and devoid of a personality, she's most likely our official winner this season.

* JCHTropeFan: I'm bias because I'm a Dawn but Backstabbers Ahoy is one. Scott, becomes a VillainSue, somehow steals everyones things from off their bodies. How does he do that? Also framing Dawn, getting hated InUniverse. Dawn was likely the Favorite of most viewers and it was awful to see her stuffed into a Garbage bag and flung into the sky. This Episode is the epitome of why Scott was TheScrappy of the season when it was airing.

Even though it's not technically a Creator/CartoonNetwork show, you can expect several unsatisfactory [[DarthWiki/DethroningMomentOfSuck moments]] from this [[CanadaEh Canadian]] import.

* No ASSCAPS, no bold, and no italics unless it's the title of a work. We are not yelling the [=DMoSs=] out loud.

* Tropers/{{Baronobeefdip}}: For ''Total Drama World Tour''-esque DMOS, look no further than [[TheScrappy Sierra]] revealing she had been [[ManipulativeBastard manipulating Cody's emotions]] in order to get close to him at the end of the episode in Paris. Now, for the most part, the episode is decent enough. However, throughout the episode Sierra is acting all [[{{Wangst}} wangsty]] after finding out that Cody doesn't like her. And Sierra sings quite an EarWorm of a song about this as well. So, Cody pretty much works his ''ass'' off trying to cheer Sierra up until he finally snaps and admits that he finds her [[StalkerWithACrush creepy stalker behavior]] more tolerable than her constant weeping. Sounds like an attempt to develop Sierra's relationship with Cody and [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap save her from her "Scrappy" status]] right? Nope. Turns out she was "playing hard to get" so that Cody would start "liking" (or "tolerating", in this case) her. It pretty much cemented Sierra's "Scrappy" status for me right there. Not to mention that, earlier, Chris yelled at Cody to make Sierra stop crying. Um, Chris, you find Sierra to be unbelievably annoying as well, remember? Or did you forget she wouldn't stop talking about your most embarrassing secrets ([[BerserkButton like being in a "boy band"]])? If anything, it just made the aforementioned reveal of Sierra playing [[ManipulativeBastard "manipulative bitch"]] to Cody all the more unbearable...and I'm not even that big of a Cody fan to begin with.

** Bleddyn: My DMOS from that episode and thereafter was definitely the treatment of Ezekiel. Look writers I don't care how much you hate the home-schooled prairie for making a ignorant sexist commemt that can be assumed he made just because he was home-schooled and never really encountered other people his age before. But for first '''that was 2 seasons ago'', I was not even a fan of this contestant and I felt that watching Ezekiel mentally degrade into a wild child that has more capabilities to kill then Izzy is just plain distasteful and disgusting for an already underdeveloped character that had WAY more potential then that.

* Rocker1992: Lightning winning the Million Dollars in ''Revenge of the Island'' instead of Cameron in the US, I mean he was leading in the polls, that is until one of the producers of the show had to ignore the votes and had to go with Lightning's ending instead, making this an instance of TheBadGuyWins, and if that wasn't sucky enough, he keeps every last dollar of the prize money, that's right, he doesn't share with every contestant that competed in the season, he keeps ''all'' of the prize money to himself, and Jo was very upset, yelling that she "Cheered Lightning on for nothing!", I mean this was not only the first time that the Male Vs Female finals tradition was broken, but also the first time a BigBad wins.

* ccarlson85: To provide an ''All-Stars'' moment (as most of my other problems with the show have already been listed), I'd like to add the ending of the episode "Food Fright". Now, as much as I like Sam and wanted to see him go far this season, I don't have problems with him being eliminated as much as I do ''the reason'' why he got eliminated. [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome After Sam owns Alejandro in the challenge]], causing the Villains to go to the elimination ceremony for the third time in a row, Chris reveals that Sam had actually cheated by stuffing some of the pancake his team was supposed to eat in his pockets. Sam says that he saved it because he was worried about going to Boney Island again and wanted to save some food just in case. Not only is this [[OutOfCharacterMoment out of character for]] [[NiceGuy Sam]] (unless he was saving it for whoever went to Boney Island that night), it seemed like a major AssPull, in the episode's ''final few minutes'' no less, to get him eliminated. Why SnapBack such an awesome moment for a character that had spent the first three episodes of the season as TheChewToy just to make him look like a somewhat selfish [[CheatersNeverProsper cheater?]]
* Tropers/MightyMewtron: I'm sacrificing "The Ex Files" for "Sundae Muddy Sundae", because the latter's [[CharacterDerailment destruction of Courtney's character]] makes the former's look tame. So after ten episodes of building up Courtney's friendship with Gwen and relationship with Scott, having her appear to develop, she undergoes a rapid FaceHeelTurn into her ''Action'' personality. Not to mention the continuity errors (despite stating this was the furthest she'd gotten, being in the final five, she was in the final ''four'' in Action, and she specifically stated having a strong stomach in ''World Tour'' and ate Al's food for him, yet couldn't eat her own gross ice cream). And her [[spoiler:elimination]] was so sudden and predictable, it didn't even offer a good conclusion for her time on the show! This episode may possibly hold the record for "quickest CharacterDerailment for ''Total Drama'' ever."

* {{Tropers/Woddor}}: I was close to putting "Hurl and Go Seek" here, but instead I'll choose the finale, "Lies, Cries and One Big Prize." The episode pulls a Sundae Muddy Sundae by completely making the season pointless by ruining Sky & Dave and Shawn & Jasmine's relationships, with Dave being catapulted into TheScrappy territory by going from a insufferable whiner to a abusive psychopath. The episode killed my interest in Total Drama, even after I made it through Hawaiian Punch, Sundae Muddy Sundae and The Final Wreck-Ening.

** The episode was "If you can't take the heat". It's stated that Harold has done this many times, complete with a "skid mark", and their frustration is understandable, especially as he denies it, despite all evidence pointing to him. Nonetheless, they went way too far, and as the OP said, it was uncharacteristic of Geoff and DJ to enjoy tormenting Harold so much, showing no remorse once their revenge was complete.

'''Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race'''
* Tropers/{{saundersaur}}: The fact that [[spoiler: Geoff and Brody]] get to return two episodes before the finale and and then win the season. Coming back so late into the game only to steal victory from contestants who worked harder and competed all the way through is just so incredibly unfair, especially since neither of them had much development. [[spoiler: Sanders and Macarthur]] absolutely deserved to win over [[spoiler: Geoff and Brody]] because they worked their butts off the entire season and grew together as partners and friends. Sure, [[spoiler: Geoff and Brody]] are nice guys, and I don't have anything against them, but that doesn't mean they deserved to win. [[spoiler: Sanders and Macarthur]] are far more well-rounded characters with many more heroic qualities. ([[spoiler: For example: During the semi-finals, Macarthur, despite her win-at-all-costs attitude, actually went back to help her worst enemy Josee when she was in danger!]]) In my opinion this marks the fourth season where the finalist who most deserved to win lost to a less-deserving character (the most deserving character being the one who had the most character development, worked the hardest, and showed the most heroic qualities). The other seasons would be [[spoiler: ''Island'', in which Gwen deserved to win over Owen, ''Action'', where Beth deserved to win over Duncan, and ''World Tour'', where Heather deserved to win over Alejandro.]]
** Also, in both Canada and America, out of seven Total Drama seasons (counting ''All-Stars'' and ''Pahkitew'' as separate seasons and ''Ridonculous'' as a season), only one female has ever won a Total Drama competition. In the "official" Canadian endings, there were ''five consecutive seasons'' where a male won (including a season that had an all-male finale!) before a girl was allowed to win. ''The Ridonculous Race'' had the chance to give not one more, but two more women a victory on this show, but nope! They just ''had'' to bring two dudebros back after they were already eliminated so they could win. The ratio of male to female winners doesn't have to be perfectly even, but it's simply unfair how unbalanced it is.
** Tropers/{{Julayla}}: To be honest, I can agree with this. I don't know if it's because they don't think women are good enough or something, but at least ONE female, likable or not, should at least deserve to win the finale season. I hate it that the writers favor males more just to screw around with females. I mean I would've even been fine with the Ice Dancers to win just to see Josee's reaction with glee. But this is just making me wish that the series was cancelled all together.

** Tropers/RA2 I would've been ok with this one if they actually tried to make any minuscule semblance what so ever of explaining who voted for whom, hell I would have been happy just to know who the swing vote was - there must have been one person on the fence else the alternate ending would not exist. But no, they just announce the winner and we're supposed to accept that. Also, it's very strongly implied that Harold voted for Duncan. What? The guy bullies him, physically and mentally for two entire seasons, and then Harold not only forgives him, but votes for him over Beth to win the million? If it walks like a WritersPet…

The ratio of male to female winners doesn't have to be perfectly even, but it's simply unfair how unbalanced it is.

** Tropers/GravityFalls I think that Harold voted for Beth, since she had three votes and the fact that DJ and Justin were confirmed to have voted for her. Because Owen and Courtney voted for Duncan, this leaves Gwen and Heather as Duncan's other votes, as Izzy voted for herself.

* Tropers/{{lasalle28}}: The biggest deal breaker of the third season for me was the episode "Greece's Pieces". The episode opens up with Courtney and Gwen talking about Duncan's return. Gwen, who [[YourCheatingHeart kissed Courtney's boyfriend yesterday]] after she finally befriends her, shows a grand total of ten seconds worth of guilt in the confessional and then contradicts herself by saying she won't tell Courtney about the kiss until it happens again and following it up by saying that she is looking forward to kissing him again and [[CaptainObvious asking into the camera if this makes her a bad person]]. Meaning she is still going to see him behind Courtney's back and won't do a thing about it until they kiss again. So much for the [[AesopAmnesia "As long as you're up front, nothing can bite you in the butt" girl from the previous season, right, Gwen?]]. Meanwhile Duncan, whom cheated on his girlfriend literally behind her back, is busy threatening Tyler to keep quiet about the kiss and then he is seen in the next scene mutually "eye-flirting" with Gwen with Courtney [[DarthWiki/WallBanger standing right next to her]] and Gwen lies to her face about it. At this point in time it's safe to say that [[TookALevelInJerkAss Duncan's]] JerkWithAHeartOfGold status he has is pretty much an InformedAbility from this point on, as is Gwen's supposed "guilt". The next scenes leading up to the ending is just Courtney [[ProperlyParanoid being suspicious about Duncan and Gwen]], Gwen pitifully trying to change the subject whenever Duncan is brought up, and Duncan being forced to sing (and one of his songs included saying that he does not regret kissing Gwen behind Courtney's back). When Tyler is forcibly told to spill the beans about Duncan and Gwen, Courtney gets understandably pissed, but what does Gwen do? Does she make any kind of attempt to apologize or accept any kind of responsibilty for her actions? No! Instead she [[CharacterDerailment cowers when Courtney gets mad, cries when they want to vote her off]], and starts cheering when Cody wins the challenge for her so that she [[KarmaHoudini can't get voted off]]. The scene that took the DMOS award goes to the ending. The episode's Crowning Moment of Disgusting for me was when Courtney, the show's JerkAss Tsundere [[SmallNameBigEgo Baxter]] is seen [[TearJerker crying uncontrollably]] while being comforted by [[ManipulativeBastard Hea]][[AlphaBitch ther]] of all people, while Gwen is doing what? Starting a confessional at the end of the episode by talking about how great the kiss was while smiling and topping that off by saying that her [[WasItReallyWorthIt sole regret]] was that [[ItsAllAboutMe she (Gwen)]] and her "[[YourCheatingHeart new]] [[JerkAss boyfriend]]" are going to be eliminated now...[[EliminationHoudini except he wasn't.]] How you ask? At the elimination, when it was unanimous decision to vote off Duncan, Chris, in all of his jerkass glory, announces that he is going to outright [[ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem ignore the votes and keep Duncan on the show despite the votes]] because Duncan is bringing the drama right now. Then the episode officially ends with Gwen cheering when Duncan doesn't leave and Courtney tearfully shouting 'I hate you!' at Gwen and Duncan. Duncan and Gwen in this episode were so [[CharacterDerailment derailed]] here, it was disgusting. They had no remorse for what they did, both were incredibly selfish, Duncan's JerkWithAHeartOfGold trait is officially an informed attribute from this point on, and Gwen went from being the OnlySaneMan to being [[NotSoDifferent just as bad as Duncan, Courtney, and especially Heather.]] This episode marked the beginning of everyone's character derailment and the last episode of this season (and maybe the series) that I ever watch.

'''General'''

* Troper8909: The fact that [[spoiler: none of the winners get to keep 100% of their money. In Island, Owen gives up the $100,000 for the chance to win $1,000,000. Nobody actually wins this money so it gets carried over to the next season.]] In the Celebrity Manhunt Total Drama Reunion Special it is stated that [[spoiler: Beth bought a holiday for her and Lindsay in France with some of her prize money. The two of them accidentally defaced the Mona Lisa and got put in jail. Beth's parents used the rest of the money to bail them out of jail.]] In World Tour Ezekiel steals the money from [[spoiler: Heather then jumps into the volcano burning the prize money.]] In Revenge Of The Island [[spoiler: Cameron decides he doesn't know what to spend the money on so he splits it between the other contestants.]] Sure he did it willingly but he still didn't keep it. In All Stars the winner isn't shown losing the money but the $1,000,000 probably got lost when [[spoiler: the island sinks.]] Finally, in Pakithew Island [[spoiler: Shawn splits the money 50:50 with Jasmine. Again, he was willing to do this but this does mean he wouldn't be able to build his zombie-proof house.]] The fact that the winners put all of this work in throughout the series to come out on top, mostly for nothing, is pretty unfair.
* Some_Person: Starting in ''World Tour'' the writers went a little [[DudeNotFunny too far]] with the comeuppance of the antagonists. In ''World Tour'' Blaineley [[spoiler: broke every bone in her body leaving her in a full body cast being unable to talk or move.]] Alejandro [[spoiler: got run over by the cast and then covered in lava leaving him so injured he is put in a robot suit unable to speak for a whole year.]] In ''Revenge of the Island'' Scott [[spoiler: got mauled by Fang leaving him unable to talk or move with out a trauma chair. Oh, and to make things more cruel the rest of the contestants (even Dawn and Brick) laugh at him.]] Next in ''All-Stars'' Duncan was [[spoiler: arrested for blowing up Chris' [[InsistentTerminology cottage]] and according to Chris he is now going to "Big Boy Prison".]] Then Courtney [[spoiler: lost her new best friend and boyfriend and no one missed her after she left. And in an exclusive clip two sharks throw up on her. She probably got the least cruel comeuppance but seeing as she didn't do to many villainous things that season it felt rather undeserved.]] And finally in ''Pahkitew Island'' [[spoiler: Dave was left on the island alone with a very angry Scuba Bear]]

* DarkShockBro: Scott's downfall. Just... all of it. Let's take this from the beginning, and explain why this is one of the worst Humiliation Congas I've ever, ever seen. First off, Fang. Look, I get that Fang was angry at Scott for taking his tooth, and that would be fine... if Scott was the one who intentionally took Fang's tooth! But, he didn't. After Fang bit Scott, the tooth got lodged in Scott's rectum, and you expect me to believe that Fang is the one in the right or even that Fang's stalker-like tendencies towards Scott make sense? No chance, writers. Alright, now let's get to part two of this Humiliation Conga. In Scott's boot episode, Chris says that the contestants will have a nice, easy challenge (which is so obviously a lie), before getting flung by a trap Scott put up into the port-o-potty. This wouldn't be so bad, if the blame wasn't entirely shifted onto Scott, even though the traps were meant to catch Fang, who was, need I remind people, stalking him! And after Scott gets the advantage, Fang continues to chase him, all over his damn tooth, and as Scott rightfully points out, Fang has hundreds, and sharks' teeth grow back! And guess what? This is why Scott doesn't win the challenge! And finally, we get to the most egregious sin in Scott's downfall; his elimination. Hoo boy, where do I begin? OK, first off, before the elimination, Scott was already put into a wheelchair as a result of Zoey (who was currently losing her mind) setting traps. Then, after Scott gets eliminated, the toxic marshmallow burns into his skin (not funny), and, surprisingly enough, Scott turns out to be a somewhat GracefulLLoser. Good thing Chris then punishes Scott for Chris himself getting accidentally caught in a trap that wasn't meant for him, and then proceeds to bring Fang out, which, again, Scott didn't provoke Fang's anger, and place Fang in the catapult with Scott! So, in case you missed it: none of Scott's HumiliationConga was his fault! Oh, but it gets worse! Then, we introduce the Trauma Chair, which means that Scott has been paralyzed by Fang's assault, and when he comes back for the finale in said chair, everyone laughs at him while Scott cries! ...I have no words. Although Alejandro's downfall caused me to realize the show was a shell of its former glory, Scott's downfall is what officially told me that the writers are beyond help, and need to be fired before poisoning cartoons with their garbage.

* JCHTropeFan: I'm bias because I'm a Dawn but Backstabbers Ahoy is one. Scott, becomes a VillainSue, somehow steals everyones things from off their bodies. How does he do that? Also framing Dawn, getting hated InUniverse. Dawn was likely the FanFavorite of most viewers and it was awful to see her stuffed into a Garbage bag and flung into the sky. This Episode is the epitome of why Scott was TheScrappy of the season when it was airing.
