"Everything goes faster in fan-fiction."
Total Deviant Art Island is a series of Total Drama fanfictions. The first season, Total Deviant Art Island, was written by Toongenius, author of World Domination. It is about 39 campers split up into three teams: The Rabid Wolverines, The Vengeful Squirrels, and The Killer Bunnies. Romance, drama, and laughter all ensue on Camp Wawanakwa as teenagers compete in challenges in the hopes of winning the cash prize.
Years later, Asujoll
took over the project and wrote the second season, Total Deviant Art Action. Twelve campers from Season 1 and 12 new players are split into two teams: Rabid Dreamworks and Killer Disney, in another attempt to win a million dollars. The veterans struggle to keep their friendships alive, while the new players struggle to fit in in an environment where they're the underdogs.
A third season, Total Deviant Art Reloaded, features 12 returning players and 12 new players. It was cancelled after the third episode.
