"Total Drama Island"

Posted by Estee on 06-05-08 at 08:00 AM
Cartoon Network's first reality series premieres 6/5 at 9 p.m. Eastern. (Yes, Canada did it first. Yes, the North already knows who won and now. We'll just have to deal with it.) If casting gives us a bunch of two-dimensional characters, at least there's a built-in excuse...

I can't say that I have ever watched an episode myself, but my son was a huge fan!

Any series which announces it's about to hit its contestants with the most boring book in the world and promptly starts reading to them from The History Of Canada -- pop-up edition -- has something special going for it.

I would take offense to that if it wasn't so true.

All right: Heather can go home any time now. Any. Time.

WTF?

They get down to individual play, and then they bring back Eva and Izzy? and they then show the confessional votes?

Ai ya.

If you pay close attention to Izzy and Eva's evictions, you'll notice Chris doesn't tell them that they can never come back, ev-er...

He never got the chance for Izzy's because she ran from the RCMP..... supposedly.

Season 1 is over.

Owen ended up winning, but then during the after party Chris gives him a chance to win a million, risking the $100k to do so. The million is in a suitcase (which looks like it was stolen off of Deal or No Deal...) and a game of chase between various alliances ensues culimating in the suitcase being eaten by a shark, and 14 of the campers declared as tied for the win. The get to compete in Season 2: Total Drama Action, which Cartoon Network will start airing Summer 2009. The winner of Total Drama Action will win the million, supposedly.

The 14 continuing on: Owen, DJ , Heather, Duncan, Leshawna, Geoff, Bridgette, Gwen, Lindsay, Izzy, Trent, Beth, Harold, and Justin.

The other 8, will watch on the sidelines, and might participate in a talk show of some kind.... (probably something like Big Brother's House Calls)

Now waiting on the DVD set.

I feel Cartoon Network stretched out the airing schedule way too much: they should have just done it as one new episode per week, the occasional marathon to catch people up, and done. As-was, this took a month and a half longer than it should have -- which made it harder to track the series: after a while, I stopped checking back to see when the next portion was coming on. Given that, I'll take the events in one extended dose when they become available -- and if: CN isn't always reliable about releasing series.

Duncan without Courtney? There went half the fun. Plus Justin's a total waste of a slot, and no one should trust Harold enough to let him get past round one...

Courtney did find out that the "camp" was actually a backlot/zoo/something that had a wall near a fast-food drive-thru, though.

The rumor is that Courtney will fight her way onto season 2. Half your fun is back.

You shouldn't pay attention to rumors!
