YMMV / Total Drama: "Soar Losers"

• Alternative Character Interpretation: Were Caleb's supporters conflicted whether or not to shoot Wayne with shirts because, unlike Julia, he's Loved by All, including them? Or because they're aware of his status as an underdog Butt-Monkey and they figured he'd likely struggle with the challenge on his own anyway? Perhaps for both reasons?
• Angst? What Angst?: Even if Nichelle is rich enough to pay the fine for quitting, you'd still expect her to be more upset her career was ruined and the contract was a fake, but she hates Julia no less than the others. There's also no mention of Ripper now owing the show a million dollars due to him quitting either, with him just being as supportive of Wayne as the rest of his teammates.
  • In regards to the million dollar fine, this is assuming that the contestants didn’t get new contracts for the second season of the reboot that did away with that rule, or that Chris wasn’t just lying to Damien back in the first season. After all, that specific rule is never brought up again after Chris tells Damien that he doesn’t have the choice to just up and quit the show.
• Catharsis Factor: Despite Julia being a popular villain, she is still a mean Alpha Bitch who cheated and manipulated her way to the finals, so it was still very satisfying to see her get a Traumatic Haircut and lose yet another chance to win the million dollars.
• Hollywood Homely: After Julia ends up with a mullet due to the raptor grabbing her hair and ripping it off, everyone acts as though she's become utterly hideous, with Chef even asking before she’s revealed if they can even show it on television. In reality, her hair just looks a little messy and a decent amount shorter and once Julia styles it a bit, she'd no doubt look fine. Many fans have even said they think her mullet is a good look on her.
• Rooting for the Empire: In the lead up to the finale's release, many fans openly admitted they were rooting for Julia, the reboot's primary Big Bad, mainly due to her plotline this season (her Villainous Friendship with MK) being easily the most popular thing to come out of it as well as many agreeing that she did ultimately play a winning game, even if most of it was off screen. Caleb being stuck in an unpopular Romantic Plot Tumor storyline with Priya (and thus failing miserably at his social game too, as he only bothered trying to get on good terms with Priya) and Wayne spending most of the season as an Out of Focus Butt-Monkey who Took a Level in Dumbass and lost his competency also helped, with many fans outright declaring that Julia was the only one who actually deserved to win for not only being in focus, but for having a plot line people actually enjoyed watching.
• Unintentionally Unsympathetic: Caleb's meant to be sympathized with when his supporters were only really helping him just to stick it to Julia, but considering that he never attempted to make bonds with anybody other than his girlfriend and his questionable actions, it shouldn't have come off as a surprise that his supporters weren't really on his side.
