- Adaptation Displacement:
- Even if you are aware of the series, you're probably not aware of the fact that it started life as a competition microsite on the Cartoon Network UK website.
- Because most people who've seen the show did so for the Total Drama and Jimmy Two-Shoes characters, even fewer people are aware that the show was originally British and that the appearances by characters from Teletoon shows are actually exclusive to the Canadian edition.
- Character Rerailment: Gwen and Courtney act more like their Island selfs, Ezekiel is not a feral animal and Dakota isn't a mutant.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: In "Quizoo", Bridgette is sent to Australia when she's eliminated. A few years later, it would be stated by her boyfriend Geoff in Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race that she was unable to join him in the competition due to being in Australia!
- Just Here for Godzilla: The Total Drama and Jimmy Two-Shoes characters for the Canadian version. In fact, it seems the vast majority of people aware Skatoony exists do so solely because of the Canadian version's usage of characters from other, better-known cartoons.
- They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: Every Jimmy Two-Shoes character who appeared on the show was eliminated in the first round, with the sole exception of Beezy. Compare that to the Total Drama characters, most of whom made it to the second round (with the exceptions of Jo, Dakota, B, Lightning, Chris McLean, Katie and Sadie in their first appearance, and Leshawna in her second appearance).
