== Guesses about the fan film ''[[
== The final episode will end with the revelation that the whole thing is scripted and staged and all participants were just actors ==
Knowing the show, this outcome is almost too good for the writers to pass up.
* [[Jossed]]. {{spoiler|Owen wins in the end.}}
** The Joss was [[Jossed]]. There is now a season 2 with all of the TDI campers <s>in it</s> appearing.
Line 34 ⟶ 33:
== Cybernetic implants are widespread in the Total Drama Verse. ==
Based on the above [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]] WMG, most of the contestants and crew are [[
* Heather's hair did not grow back at all during TDA because it's artificial (the herbal tea thing was likely denial at work). She had it replaced between TDA and TDWT and opted for shorter hair, thinking it would be less vulnerable.
* Ezekiel had some upgrades installed to make him a more effective farmboy. A lack of proper maintenance caused his degeneration in TDWT.
* Alejandro's home country has developed into a major technological center. This made it feasible for him to have himself enhanced to the level of a [[Villain Sue|Villain Stu]] in a misguided effort to live up to his family name.
* Cody is a pure human, so his injuries last longer than those of the other contestants. He'd have died in "Phobia Factor" if not for the aforementioned advanced medical technology.
* Courtney was a pure human in TDI. She had several upgrades installed for TDA, but [[Cybernetics Eat Your Soul|Cybernetics Ate Her Soul]] and in the end she had to be downgraded following complications resulting from whatever she did with Duncan after the TDA finale. By TDWT she was in stable condition, if somewhat irritable.
* Justin has a holoprojecter installed on his body to present the image of each Woman's perfect looking man (with a computer added to his brain that probes there minds for that data) unfortunately (for him) Courtney's implant's allowed her to see though the projection
== Chris McClean has connections to [[The Government]]. ==
And so, they look the other way when he does things of dubious legality and then broadcasts them on international television.
* This one has a bit of evidence supporting it thanks to the Area 51 episode of season three, "The Ex Files."
== The campers were all chosen because they're metahumans; the show is designed to force their powers to activate. ==
Line 49 ⟶ 48:
** this explains the super hero flick episode. Chris was testing them to see if any would recognize their potential.
* Justin - [[Mind Control]]. He just ''thinks'' people listen to him because he's good looking. That's why it's more effective on girls, but that's just a mental block.
** It might be the power of heart. It may not be a lame power after all.
*** It's not Heart ''per se.'' Heart can only be used for good.
*** Besides, DJ has the power of heart or something like it.
Line 77 ⟶ 76:
** Maybe for him it can be self inflicted and self regernerated. Like how he gets a rather badly sprained ankle in Action, then it's better five minutes later.
** Wait, I got it! Trent is a contortionist, super double jointed all over his body and made of rubber.
* Noah - Teleportation. Ever wondered why we never saw him jump off the cliff?
** I ''would'' say something along the lines of superhuman intelligence, but that seems a bit ''too'' obvious.
** This explains how he dodges the lasers. He teleports around them.
* Bridgette - [[Blessed
** Or Eris from ''[[The Grim Adventures of Billy
* Heather - [[Reality Warper]]. If she looks like she is going to be out, then "Hey, look! I got the chest with invincibility!" This explains a LOT about ''Haute' Camp-ture''; in it, she used her powers on Chris to bring up the horrible, ''horrible'' logic and made everyone into idiots (hate the vote off, blame Heather). Chris got '''SO''' ticked off that she messed him up that he got her out on ''I Triple Dog Dare You.'' Unlike the others, however, she ''knows'' she has this power.
** No, she's a telepath, like Emma Frost. See how she slices up the apple in Broadway Baby with her nails? She just temporarily became made of diamond. She seems to have a level of control over other campers because she can read minds to know exactly how to manipulate them. This also explains why she isn't affected by Alejandro's stolen mind control.
* Gwen - Waterbender. She somehow managed to find Geoff's camera after she threw it into a great big lake and then acted as if it was nothing. She can bloodbend, too, as evidenced in "Basic Straining"; all the other campers got high from the blood rushing to their head, but Gwen was mysteriously unaffected.
* Ezekiel - [[Hate Plague]].
** Possibly he infects peoples minds on a large uniformed scale. Unfortunately, he hasn't figured how to make them feel good about him instead of bad yet.
** Actually, seeing the clip of the Ezekiel shapes cloud of vapor in the aftermath, I'd say he's got intangibility and can phase through objects like a ghost. This is how he gets back on the plane, why nobody spots him and how he sneaks into Chris's hot tub. He appears so confident at the beginning of world tour because he found out he had powers. He's not very good at using them yet, but is testing them out as a stowaway around the plane.
** I'd guess his power is morphing into the feral state he spent most of World Tour in but unlike most of the others he has no control over it. I noticed that he seemed to be much stronger and nimbler after losing his mind
** Zombie!Zeke is his [[Super
* Lindsay - Guess.
** She can shut down parts of her brain at will, for hibernation or something. It explains a lot of her stupidity. Come on, nobody's ''that'' dumb.
** Or possession. By shutting down her brain, she take control of peoples bodies and make them do or say things they wouldn't normally. This explains all the character derailment in Action, it's all a result of her shipping different characters with each other. So Lindsay is really the ultimate manipulative bastard, which is why Heather tries to keep her close and in check.
** But in Action she tried to do too much and ended up leaving her intellegence so low she accidentily voted herself off.
* Beth - [[Blessed
** Okay, this sounds like an ''awesome'' idea for a fanfiction.
** This explains how she ended up with the evil tiki rock. Villain magnet at work.
** Actually, I'm thinking firebending with those flaming batons. She causes quite a bit of damage for just randomly waving around.
** She might be able to create illusions, like she created the illusion of Brady (he's imaginary) to show up Leshawna and Heather
Line 103 ⟶ 102:
** Also manages to borrow Tyler's extreme flexibility, right after the episode where Tyler's flexibility was revealed.
** Unfortunately, he also managed to take Tyler's buttmonkey-ness and the usually surefooted Alejandro rams himself into a hurdle.
** Possibly, he can also give people powers and so swapped DJ's animal familiarity with Bridgette's impossibly bad luck.
* Sierra - Chi manipulation. She can touch certain part of your body to paralyze, heal or generally effect the body (poor Cody is her guinea pig when testing this)
** Also super speed. When motivated, she paddled a swan boat for six all by herself to the finish line in record time. When frightened by a lion she blazes a trail about a mile away.
Line 119 ⟶ 118:
If Total Drama Drama Drama Drama Island is any indication, we may need to add Justin to the [[Evil Is Sexy]] list when Season 2 comes around. He might be more of a bastard than we think.
* No offense, but this is obvious as heck.
** Yet still Jossed. Huuuuuuh.
== Izzy and Owen are the parents of [[Recess|Mikey]] and [[Class of 3000|Madison]] ==
Because it makes way too much sense. Also, Izzy is a young [[The Magic School Bus|Ms. Frizzle]].
* Wouldn't that make them [[Brother
== Ezekiel is the BEST camper. ==
Line 130 ⟶ 129:
## It's wild mass guessing. When did tropers need proof?
##It beats saying that Ezekiel is a time lord.
== Chris is [[Satan]]. ==
The contracts? The "remote controlled" hail cloud? The storms in "camp castaways?" For the later two, <s> Chris</s> Satan didn't use any tools or
== In the last episode, '''''everybody''''' will break up and get with different people. ==
Line 144 ⟶ 140:
* '''Trent/Gwen''': This pretty much already happened.
* '''Duncan/Courtney''': As said in a below guess, Courtney could just be pretending to like Duncan. Courtney has <s>slowly</s> become more bossy and the like, and threatens to sue at any time, and even gave Duncan a giant list of things he has to do (it was either the episode "Top Dog" or "2009: a Space Owen"). My real guess is that Duncan is a cover up because Courtney ''really'' has an even more strange cruch...
* '''Tyler/Lindsay''': Thanks to the [[Flanderization]], this is obvious. As stated in [[Wall Banger
{{quote|
'''Tyler''': It's not as good as it sounds. She forgot who I was.
'''TD fan''': ... }}
** Depressingly, they have probably one of the least dysfunctional relationships out of all the contestants
Line 153 ⟶ 149:
* '''Geoff/Bridgette''': Again, this nearly happened in canon, and they even broke up at least once. And if [[Flanderization]] as right, Geoff became a jerk.
* '''Ezekiel/Eva''': '''''THIS IS ALREADY NOT A CANON PAIRING''''', ''sheesh''.
* '''Cody/Noah''': '''''THIS IS NOT CANON EITHER'''''. It is the cannon-ist of the cannons.
* '''Katie/Sadie''': '''''AGAIN WITH THE NOT-CANON'''''.
* '''[[Cargo Ship|Owen/Mr. Coconut]]''': Ugh.
Line 162 ⟶ 158:
Think about it. All 22 campers are teen stereotypes. Almost every vote off is a wall banger... because the writers '''want''' them to be. [[Power Up Comics|It is an intentional so bad its good, and we just don't realize it.]] Notice how much [[Narm]] is boiling inside ''every'' use of the word "drama". And finally, ''just look at the title''. If that doesn't scream "stealth parody", then nothing does.
* It isn't a [[Stealth Parody]]. It's an open parody. They don't make any attempt to disguise any of the facts you listed above.
== Training camp ==
Twenty minutes into the future. Parents send their kids to the 'reality show', as a form of boot camp. Nobody wants to go to boot camp but if they think they are on tv...then why not. The first four or five contestants to go were plants so everyone is guaranteed some juicy time of being taught how not to be jerks.
== '''All''' of this is a day dream by Owen ==
Line 181 ⟶ 168:
** Hmmm, you may be on to something here. Maybe the contestants are actually people he knows from school, and Izzy is just a girl he has a crush on, fantasizing her in a bikini.
== Along with this being a [[Stealth Parody]], Gwen and Courtney are [[Parody Sue
* Trent definitely, the others not so much.
** Actually, Courtney turned into a massive [[Jerk Sue]] in TDA. Then again, [[Fanon Discontinuity|we wish that TDA never happened.]]
Line 197 ⟶ 184:
This was something Heather ''didn't'' know, after the head shave, she got rid of the very little hair she had left. This is why she was facing ''many'' problems later on.
== Chris has an upgraded [[Portal (
That can shoot invisible portals, have portals in the air, and change the size of them. This shows how Izzy and Owen had a '''much''' longer run to leave the woods and how the diving board reappears. And for {{spoiler|the secret about the island? Two of them (islands, not portals), one with ''nobody'' but the main cast on it (c'mon, it ''can't'' be the same thing, other episodes contract this.), and the other one.}}
Line 204 ⟶ 191:
* But who with who?
* And that's the tricky question: There are very obvious friendships to make team, like Katie and Sadie, and of course, we got the canon pairings, but only until we know how the relationships end up in TDA I would dare to make some predictions.
** Simple,
** pairing the teams up by romance/friendship is boring, make enemies teams! like Harold/Duncan and Gwen/Heather
** this is pretty much jossed because of world tour
Line 233 ⟶ 220:
== Justin ''was'' a really genuinely nice guy... ==
Until he was wrongfully eliminated by Heather. When that happened, he had something of an internalized [[Freak
* You know what? That's exactly what I always thought, and I think an experience like that would be specially frustrating to him (Because everybody was so nice to him until that moment). To most people wouldn't be a big deal, but to someone like him would be almost traumatic, since he's just to used to get whatever he wants
** ... [[Draco in Leather Pants|Justin in leather pants]], much?
** Maybe...[[Even the Guys Want Him|and I'm a guy...]]
== Trent is a follower of [[Warhammer
The REAL reason he's obsessed with the number 9.
* Jossed in a recent episode of a "spin off" series "created" by Geoff and Bridgette, wherein Trent reveals it's due to something about his grandpa and trains or something. [[Stop Having Fun Guy|Sorry...]]
Line 264 ⟶ 251:
* Gwen's own vote off (caused by her messing up the chalange for the team because she felt guilty that Trent helped her out on an earlier challenge, even though they where on different teams) in the second season was because the writer has nothing left to do with her and wanted to give her the vote off equivalent of a [[Heroic Sacrifice]]...
* ...And after that, it started to focus on Duncan/Courtney...
* Owen's vote off was not supposed to be looked at as a [[
* Maybe the way Courtney treated Duncan in action is the author's way of saying "don't you think Duncan deserves better?, like Gwen?"
* ''The ending to TDDDDI people, the ending to TDDDDI.''
Line 271 ⟶ 258:
* It sure as hell explains why Heather is getting so much crap.
* World Tour's {{spoiler|lack of Trent, return of Noah, and Sierra}} makes it look like a very {{spoiler|Cody-centric}} [[Fanfic]]
* {{spoiler|Sierra does look a lot like a [[Mary Sue]] from a [[Self
== Based on the above, Total Drama is a spoof not of reality shows or teen dramas, but of specific elements in bad [[Fan Fiction]]. ==
Season 1 established the series. Season 2 took that series and added plenty of [[Character Derailment]], [[Die for Our Ship]], and Flanderization. The derailed have since been rerailed and the Flanderized elements have been toned down. Season 3 appears to be [[Parody Sue|sending up]] original character [[Mary Sues]]: Sierra is an [[You Suck|unsympathetic]] [[Audience Surrogate]] with [[New Powers
== This may sound like a wild guess, but Ezekiel will become the next [[Big Bad]]. ==
This ''is'' a wild guess, as the only evidence is Total Drama Drama Drama Drama Island, where he allied with Lindsay and Beth. Now they're only two so far (Heather and Justin), but out of them, 100% of the previous big bads allied with the same people.
* {{spoiler|this could actually happen, due to the fact that he is lurking in the shadows in the Japan episode}}
== The show is set in the same universe as [[Drawn Together]] ==
Line 289 ⟶ 276:
== Chris will develop a 'relationship' with one of the contestants. ==
He's already shown very little regard for set rules, and there have been 'illegal alliances' in the past. Not to mention that he's gotten to see the [[Love Makes You Crazy|craziness that]] [[Love Makes You Evil|love inspires]]. How could he ''resist'' stirring up more chaos? ''Especially'' since getting somebody to fall for him would stroke his already massive ego ''and'' let him prove that he's just as alluring as the other ''handsome guys'' on the show. The main question remaining is who...
* Lindsay seems likely, given all the Chris/Lindsay [[Shipping|Ship Fic]], and given that {{spoiler|Tyler returns}} in ''The Musical'' and he's seen just how much drama [[Love Dodecahedron
* Chris' voice actor has confirmed that Chris is flirting with Lindsay
Line 295 ⟶ 282:
Globetrotting, regular musical numbers, and a primarily Caucasian cast seems to be just asking for trouble.
== [[So Bad
Mainly a comparison between ''William Country'' and the ''Total Cartoon'' series, but think about it:
* Lordryu
* Wrties script
* Writes works out of the
* Stone
* No [[Original Character]]s (mostly), yet [[Crossover]]--[[Original Character]]s, no crossover.
* Likes a major character (Duncan)--likes a minor character (Cody).
Line 309 ⟶ 296:
* Speaking of pairings, ships cannon ones (mostly)--ships [[Crack Pairing|crack ones]].
== Izzy is famicon/ghxyk2 and made ''[[
Search "Bart the General" on youtube, and you can see that it makes too much sense. It's not that Izzy is crazy enough to think that BTG ''makes sense'' and is a good idea, but that she is trying to [[Mind Screw]] everyone. [[Naruto
Also:
Line 327 ⟶ 314:
Her profile from season one outright says that she has no friends in her normal life, and the way she ends up acting (unreasonable jealousy, an inability to tell friendship from cheating, ridiculous rules to try making things work) make ''so much'' more sense when you view them as the actions of a girl who has no clue how a relationship should work and who ends up going very overboard trying to force it into what she thinks a perfect loving relationship is supposed to be like because she doesn't understand that you can't plan out romance the way she does everything else in her life.
* Hey, that actually makes a lot of sense. Thanks for pointing that out, it saved Courtney's character for me.
* Thank you! You just saved Courtney for me as well, and that makes a LOT of sense.
== ''Total Drama'' is a series of [[Play
Chris Mcclean's player is the GM and runs the forum, and the rest of the cast was made up by their respective players to take part in a [[Reality Show]] parody, complete with a colorful avatar. Some are self-parodies while others are parodying common reality show stereotypes. The show as we see it is adapted from their [[In and Out of Character|IC logs]]. While it was generally agreed that this would be a "non-powered" campaign as it was set in something close to "reality", they still put their avatars through considerable amounts of abuse.
Line 336 ⟶ 323:
== Courtney's settlement included an agreement to bring more drama into the show. ==
Yes, it sounds like an [[
Plus, part of the whole ''theme'' of ''Action'' is '''acting'''. Something Courtney may be quick to remind the others of during the lead-up to ''The Musical'', or the third series proper. Now, whether or not she's ''believed''

Line 367 ⟶ 354:
== As mentioned on its own WMG page, this series and ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'' take place in the same fictional universe. ==
Thus explaining why they both have sapient but non-talking animals, advanced technology and really weirdly-shaped heads. Also, [[The Intern|Carl]] and Harold are related. There's just something about them that makes me think they must be.
== Izzy is related to/grows up to become [[The Magic School Bus|Ms. Frizzle]]. ==
Come on, they even look alike.
* Both are awesome too!
** That's actually a funny idea. Granted, the Frizz is less manic than Izzy, but perhaps even she can calm down as she grows up? And goes back to using her actual
*** Uhm... fr'''izzle''' to '''Izzy!''' Its not even a fake name it's just a shortening! Either way this is my new canon :)
Line 378 ⟶ 365:
In [[Word of God|interviews about the first season]] they said that the reason Heather was the only really villainous contestant (Chris and Chef not counting since they're outsiders from the ground) was because they interviewed tons of kids in the age demographic they were aiming at about what they liked in reality shows, and one of their major dislikes were your standard [[Reality TV]] villains. This one villain trend kept up in the second season, with Justin at the beginning then switching over to Courtney as they decided that he didn't really work.
So, ''if'' Justin had kept scheming away Courtney would have kept the role she had when she first got back into the show, as the disgruntled [[Straight Man]] trying to keep [[Surrounded
== Speculation for World Tour. ==
Line 409 ⟶ 396:
* Ezekiel will be a contestant, but he will make another foot-in-mouth comment and he'll be the first one booted off (just like in Island). {{spoiler|Sort-of confirmed, as he gets ''voted off'' first by his team for doing something stupid - losing his stick.}}
* Trent will get a new girlfriend, which will make Gwen jealous.
* An [[Unrequited Love Switcheroo]] between Cody and Sierra, possibly in Paris.
* Courtney will become a [[Shipper
* The Woolly Beavers and the Stymphalian Canada Geese will make another appearance (probably in the episode when they go to [[Jurassic Park|Costa Rica]])
* More Cody/Noah [[Ho Yay|undertones]] - {{spoiler|Jossed. They've had no interaction all season and Noah has now been eliminated.}}
** No interaction all season? Someone clearly missed {{spoiler|the Alps episode. Sausage, anyone?}}
Line 444 ⟶ 431:
* Blaineley will become a contestant. {{spoiler|Confirmed. She unintentionally (and unwillingly) 'won' a place as a contestant during an Aftermath challenge.}}
* A Sierra/Cody/Gwen [[Love Triangle]].
** Jossed. Gwen ended up in a triangle with Courtney and Duncan instead.
*** It's probably better to say there was a big [[Love Dodecahedron]]: Sierra==>Cody==>Gwen==>Duncan/Courtney==>Alejandro==>Heather. And that's not even if you count the fake Courtney==>Tyler or all of Alejandro's other crushees.
Line 450 ⟶ 437:
* Heather and Alejandro will form an aliance, totally intending to double cross the other in the end with [[Gambit Index|gambits]], but will then [[Becoming the Mask|Become The Mask]] with one another and appear to fall in love. In the end, Alejandro will be hoisted by his own petard by Heather, when he dosen't have the heart to follow through, and votes her off as planned (but she will anyway). Heather will go on in the final two - probably agaisnt Noah or Cody (I really hope Noah, considering the Noah gambit mentioned above, but the show so far is centering on Cody so he is more likely). She will lose to whichever and get back together with Alejandro in the end(who forgives her because he likes manipulative bastards, seeing as he is one). If this happens, including the Noah gambit from season 1, Teletoon will not only be forgiven but hailed as my new religion.
* There will be a Pirate/carribean episode for whatever reason and Alejandro and Heather will star. Seriously, he's got and eyepatch and she's got a gold tooth. They are becoming pirates!
== Speculation for the season after World Tour. ==
Line 502 ⟶ 489:
* just let the little fangirl believe
** That comment has made my day.
** Mine too. Worth posting the rebuttal in the first place.
== Gwen could/will turn out to be the new antagonist in Total Drama World Tour ==
Why is she hanging out with ''Heather and Courtney'' of all people in the trailer? They were the bad guys from ''Island'' and ''Action''. And they're her worst enemies! And in one picture, she's throwing a glare at Sierra while everyone else (Heather, Courtney and Cody) is smiling. I don't think she'll get along with Sierra because Sierra will likely see her as a threat to her crush on Cody. If this happens and she takes over the previous roles of Heather and Courtney (dueling with Alejandro?) how far are the writers gonna <s>take</s> throw her character off the rails this time?
* She's hanging out with Heather and Courtney because they're all on the same team, and even then she's seen glaring at them on occasion, as for the Sierra thing, this troper thinks that it's either the Cody issue or that Gwen just doesn't like Sierra because of her enthusiastic/spazzy personality.
* Gwen as an antagonist? Actually this isn't a bad idea, in this troper opinion.
* Gwen could be cheesed off with Sierra for losing her team the challenge, or maybe she could focus her attention on Cody after doing the whole [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy]] Shtick with Duncan, although this is unlikely to happen due to [[Cartoon Network]] heavily promoting the Courtney/Duncan/Gwen [[Love Triangle]]
Line 524 ⟶ 511:
== Sierra is either a sadist or CRAZY. ==
I'm not talking about [[Crazy Awesome|Izzy-crazy]], I'm talking about regular-crazy. Did you guys hear that creepy leitmotif she has in the first episode of ''World Tour''? Or how she seems to love Chris and Heather despite knowing what they've done in the past two seasons? Or the fact that she basically radiates a creepy, "I-sometimes-sneak-into-your-house-and-wear-your-clothes-while-you're-asleep" aura?
** let me guess, Gwody shipper?
*** Nope. I'm just giving a WMG that Sierra's secretly insane, at least I didn't say she's a Time Lord or something.
**** depressingly You're probably right, although her affection for Chris and Heather could be just good old [[Draco in Leather Pants]]-ism
*** this is pretty much confirmed in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjJH6Pyvtjs this teaser]

*** Face it, [[Gwenx Trent]] ship [[Ship Sinking|has the same fate]] of the [[Otokatachi No Yamato|glorious Yamato]], but not that glorious ending
== Alejandro is an utter bastard because [[Lady Gaga]] broke his heart. ==
He's so vain, I bet he thinks [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niqrrmev4mA this song] is about him.
== Sierra is a [[Stepford Smiler]]. ==
She used to be all lonely before Total Drama first started. Then when she realized that the contestants were all just as strange as her, she developed a huge obsession and started blogging about them. In her mind, she sees them all as her friends and sees Cody as her boyfriend. When Cody finally breaks her heart, she will reveal that she knew he never liked her, but she just wanted it to be real. * Sniff*
* That'd be an ''awesome'' fanfic, but way too dark for the show.
** It might actually happen due to Sierra saying "Who needs friends when I have a Cody!?"
Line 552 ⟶ 539:
* She has already shown to be very multi-talented, for example she can sing like and angel. And she clearly knows what to look for during the challenges, while at the same time appearing to be a ditz.
* Sierra named her team Chris! That should raise alarm bells right there.
* There is a devious mind behind that sweet face of hers.
* She knows that Heather will make an alliance with her and stab her in the back when she is now longer needed.
* So, Sierra will use Heather first.
* Sierra will make it a game to see how far she can push Heather over the edge.
* Before this is over, Sierra will drive Heather stark raving mad. And we will have the fun in watching it happen.

Line 565 ⟶ 552:
== The Writers Thought Beth Would Win TDA ==
Think about it, Beth said that if she won she'd take Lindsay with her to Paris. The TDA specials starts by showing us the two of them in Paris, and later Beth is seen losing a wheelbarrow of money while a convenient voice over says, "Beth's parents had to sell their car to make bail." The writers were so sure that Beth would win that they wrote the special as if she'd won, which also explains why Courtney and Duncan are having dinner together, something they said they'd do in the alternate ending where Duncan loses. So the producers did an awkward voice over to hide the part about Beth losing the prize money and kept quiet about Duncan, hoping we'd assume he'd just lost the money somehow.
** Just a guess here, but the writers probably wanted Beth to win because she's a girl, and it would ''keep the playing field even'', as well as keeping away those pesky [[Moral Guardians
== Nobody Wins In The End ==
Check this out:
* Owen won season one but he had to give up his money to compete in season two, which he didn't win.
* Duncan won season two but somehow lost the money (Or the writers are going by the alternate ending where Beth wins, in that case Beth loses the money when she has to pay bail in Paris) before season three.
* Spoilers reveal that at the end of Season three {{spoiler|Alejandro throws the money into a volcano, meaning that, once again, no one gets it}}.
So what I think is that none of the original 22-campers ever actually get to keep the money (except maybe Beth since she used a tiny portion of the money to fund her trip to Paris) and so every season everyone loses and Chris just makes money from the entire thing.
Line 579 ⟶ 566:

because he's Chris and he [[Screw the Rules, I Make Them|does what he wants]]

That one scene in season one has spawned tons of fangirls, so the directors will begin [[Pandering to

== The creators of the Total Drama series were fed up with fans telling them to follow in the [[Total Drama Comeback|Koboid Necromancer's]] footsteps, so as a take that, took his favorite character, Ezekiel, and turned him into a Butt Monkey as a Take That. ==

** I wanted to post this first!

Line 605 ⟶ 592:
His manipulating skills will fail to work on a contestant he considers a threat, and as a result he'll assault them, breaking their jaw and arms in order to stop them from telling. The audience won't be shown this, and believe they got into an accident. We won't know until the contestant heals and tells everyone. It will be Aljeandro's [[Moral Event Horizon]], and he'll be a [[Karma Houdini]] since he'll do it while the plane is over international waters, or try buying his way out. Or it'll be his word against theirs, and being the son of a diplomat his will be taken.
** My money's on Noah
*** But hasn't Noah already fallen for Alejandro's manipulation? If anything, team Amazon is the only team that doesn't admire Alejandro, so perhaps it's Cody instead?
*** Noah's smart enough to see through his deception after a while, also Cody has a good chance of facing Alejandro's wrath
*** You may be right, in the third episode Noah doesn't seem all that impressed with Al's monster movie idea like the others are, and perhaps Cody's conflict with Alejandro is what's foreshadowed by Al knocking him down in the TDA special?

He's already gone through quite a bit of [[Break the Cutie|cutie-breaking]], with the horrible new [[Running Gag]] about hurting the very same cuddly creatures he so adores.

After injuring one too many cute animals, he'll completely snap and decide that, if he ''has'' to cause pain, to cause it to somebody who '''deserves''' it. (Related to this: Chris may get an equally epic [[Oh Crap]] moment...)
== Sierra, Alejandro and Ezekiel are all Chris' [[Unwitting Pawn
Sierra and Alejandro, as 'fresh blood', are meant to make the third season more exciting; Ezekiel, on the other hand, was deliberately selected because he's so incredibly irritating and stubborn enough to stick it out despite everyone hating him. In the wrap-up special following ''World Tour'', Chris will reveal that the whole season was testing to see how receptive audiences would be to a newer cast, and whether or not the 'old guard' -- such as
''Including'' Sierra and Alejandro, as he'll declare that both of them will have worn out their gimmicks: Sierra's [[Stalker
This, of course, will lead to a mad, jealous scramble by the cast to 'deal with' their replacements, as in the ''Celebrity Manhunt Special''. This may or may not end with a few of them earning the right to compete alongside the newbies in ''Reloaded''; either way, this will all be playing right into Chris' hands.

Line 645 ⟶ 632:
That's the real reason why he mentioned that each challenge "''could'' end with an elimination" in ''World Tour''. He plans to, at the most [[Rule of Drama|dramatically appropriate moment]], have the losers vote somebody off, go through the entire ceremony, and then stop them from taking the Drop of Shame, saying something along of lines of "You ''would''... '''if''' this was an elimination round!" After all, he makes the rules, and he ''had'' mentioned this before. In all likelihood, he'll deliberately do this to make the benefactor a [[Elimination Houdini]] and create even more tension, as now the one who nearly got voted off will ''know'' they've been targeted, and the other teammates will be extra pissed that they got spared.
The most likely candidate? Sierra. She constantly compliments and sucks up to Chris, and so long as Cody's around, he'll likely want her there for the entertainment value. Cody might also be possible, as Sierra would ''flip'' if he gets eliminated before her, and since he [[Liz Lemon Job|acts as the lynchpin for Team Amazon]], he'd be caught in the crossfire even worse, desperately trying to maintain

Line 773 ⟶ 760:
* Actually, he's only biased against Team Victory. Check out episode 8; if Heather didn't get voted out, it should have been a reward challenge...but Team Victory didn't win a reward (other the first class thing, but that goes to the winning team every episode so it doesn't count).
== Chris is [[Haruhi Suzumiya
Or, alternatively, he is Kyon if he actually had grown up with the [[Reality Warper]] powers. Several reasons:
* Camp Wawanakwa, and probably the film lot as well (possibly the entire Earth that they do the world tour) is an alternate dimension that is only accessable by Chef - the [[Psychic Powers|esper]] or slider, who would be a mix of Koizumi and Kyon (since he plays the grumbling straight man to Chris), plus a whole bunch of [[Ho Yay]]. Ever wonder why we see no real people during the world travel sites or in the Aftermath studio? No laws about subjecting kids to this sort of torture? The people in these places are either in a different dimension (where they took Celebrity Manhunt with them) or Chris has bended the wills of those around him.
* Which brings me to my next point. The ridiculous, laws-of-physics-breaking nature of the show that we blame on it being animated could be accounted for by the fact that Chris WANTED it to happen (jumping off a thousand foot cliff or Trent falling five thousand feet without dying) so he could have interesting challenges without the contestants actually dying (as we saw in the ''Remote Island'' episodes, even Haruhi wouldn't wish someone dead). It would also explain the increased animal aptitude, the [[Genre Blind]] contestants, (as well as their adherence to their stereotypes), etc.
* Why? Because he was bored and used his powers for his own amusement, just like Haruhi. And, especially if he is a not-so-disillusioned Kyon, he would still be looking for supernatural beings. Chef, as above, would probably be the esper or slider. The world tour is to send the contestants throughout those places in order to look for aliens. The movie sets were actually [[Time Travel|different eras in time, such as the Western, space, caveman, and war genres.]]
* Finally, the ambiguous age is an indicator that Chris is not all that he seems. [[Word of God]] says he was 25 at the start of the show, but Sierra says he was born in 1978, meaning that he is lying to throw us off (since we also don't know the exact dates of the events in Haruhi-verse) to the actual year.
There, that's all I got. Feel free to add, disagree, or provide other instances of potential candidates for Haruhi within the younger cast.

== Zombie!Ezekiel isn't the same person as Real!Ezekiel. ==
Ezekiel was tossed out of the plane when it crashed in ''Jamaica Me Sweat'', hit his head on a rock, and was knocked out for a while. so he didn't get back on the plane after it left. Chris, noting his abscence, found a ''real'' zombie (maybe the zombified corpse of Jack the Ripper?), and used it in the ''I See London'' challenge. He thought that he would get more viewers if one of the characters apparently turned into a zombie, so he either stole Real!Ezekiel's clothes or found some that looked just like his, put them on the zombie, and was all "Whoa, hey, look, it's Ezekiel!" Noah realized that the zombie wasn't really Ezekiel when he was taken by him, and Chris was afraid he'd tell, which was why he totally screwed with the results of the challenge in that episode and then showed Alejandro the convenient tape of Noah slandering him, resulting in Noah being kicked off. In the finale, Zombie!Ezekiel will fall into the volcano, everyone will freak out thinking it was Real!Ezekiel. Chris will be like, "He was already dead! He's been dead for ''(insert amount of years older than Ezekiel has been alive here)'' years!" Courtney/Alejandro/Noah/Heather/Gwen (one of the smart campers) will point out that Ezekiel is only ''(insert Zeke's age here)'', and therefore that's impossible, and then the real, actual, non-zombie Zeke will walk up (possibly in his skivvies, if Chris stole his clothes) and be all, "Yo, why's everyone freaking out, eh?" Chris will claim he would never kill one of them for real, everyone will be all "Awwww! He does care!", and then Chris will be all, "I'd get sued!" and everyone will be all depressed.
[[Epileptic Trees]], maybe, but that's my standpoint. Because, seriously, how could Zeke ''really'' be a zombie? It just doesn't make sense!

== All of the [[Character Derailment]] in Total Drama Action was the result of the contestants clamoring for fame ==
To clarify, the reason so many people were acting so out-of-character was because they were trying to play to what they thought the audience wanted. After all, it was pretty much confirmed that this was the reason for Geoff's behavior in the Aftermath segments. Trent realized how big of a reaction his relationship with Gwen got from the fans, so he tried to make that the focus for season two, but took it too far and pushed Gwen (and the fans) away. Owen let the fame from winning Total Drama Island go to his head and amped the eating and farting jokes [[Up to
This might also be connected to why the Total Drama cast got snubbed for the Gemmie Award in the Celebrity Manhunt Reunion Special. The fans were extremely disappointed by how so many of the characters were radically different from how they were in season one, and this (combined with the absence of some of their favorites like Cody, Noah, and Ezekiel) led to the Total Drama contestants losing the Gemmie.

== The big secret that Eva was about to reveal during her second elimination in Island was that Izzy was selling gossip/secrets to Sierra. ==
During the Celebrity Manhunt Special at the end of Action, we're introduced to Sierra for the first time, find out her in-depth information source on all the cast was Izzy, and that Izzy was selling them because she needed the cash to pay off the RCMP.
The first time Izzy is "eliminated" in Island, she was chased off by the RCMP choppers, but we never see them again, despite the fact that they would know she was back on the Island as soon as she made her return. Why did they never try to capture her again, despite this knowledge? Because she had already struck a deal with the RCMP, paying off what she owed them, using the money earned by selling the juicy information. Slipping back into the show thanks to never being 'officially' eliminated gave her additional chances to spy on everyone. Seeing as she made it fairly far in both seasons, it's not hard to imagine she fed them a lot of juicy information, thus providing enough money to pay off what she owed by the special.

== Chris planted every animal that DJ "attacked" just to mess with him. ==
Line 1,098 ⟶ 1,085:
== Leshawna lied about being friends with Heather in the TDA Aftermath. ==
She probably did feel gratitude for Heather for not being mad at her with the reward incident in Action, but was it really enough to win her over after all the crap she pulled in Island? Even though Heather wasn't as bad in Action as she was in Island, she was still a snarky jerk. So why did Leshawna claim that the two of them were now friends? She did it as a [[Batman Gambit]] to merely keep close to Heather and make sure she wouldn't manipulate/hurt her friends again (Gwen, Harold, et al.)
Remember what she told Gwen when she convinced her to put Heather on her team: "Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer." She had this in mind when she got close to Heather as well. Despite professing friendship, she most likely believed that given the proper means, and as soon as her hair grew back, Heather would return to her eviler self.
Fast forward to ''World Tour''. Leshawna probably found out about the internet war between Heather and Gwen, which would be cause for alarm. Heather's attempts at trying to turn Sierra into an ally would also not go unnoticed. Then Alejandro swoops in, and the rest, as we know, culminates in Leshawna's elimination and Heather losing a tooth. And yet, we hear in the next Aftermath that she is proud of beating Heather to a pulp on the loosest of pretenses. Therefore, it's entirely possible that Leshawna's pride was not rooted in beating up her friend after being manipulated into doing so, but that now that she had beaten up Heather, she no longer has to pretend to be her friend just to keep an eye on her. She was proud that she would no longer be living a lie anymore.
== The writers are deliberately limiting Noah's amount of screentime so we'll keep asking for more of him ==
* This troper supports this theory. After all, he has more of a fandom than [[My Friends and Zoidberg|Tyler]], a similar popularity to [[Breakout Character|Cody]], while getting the amount of screentime as [[Base Breaker|Zeke]].
** On a related note, Noah's screentime is deliberately limited so that his fans (especially the ones who like him for relatability reasons, like me, who would be both [[Deadpan Snarker|snarky]] and [[Insufferable Genius|certain we were right]] about the complaints) won't complain about him getting derailed. A character with such a stubborn personality should not be very malleable, so the development should be limited to growth and dwindling of existent traits.

== Sierra was [[Genre Savvy]] enough to know that Alejandro was a [[Manipulative Bastard]] all along ==
Line 1,121 ⟶ 1,108:
Sigficant here is that in her search to find out all she could on the contestants, Sierra is shown to have hacked into government computers to do just that. That requires an ENORMOUS about of hacking skills and computer know-how, and that would be if you're a character in a spy genre; Sierra's just a teenage girl in high school. The fact that she was able to do this, possibly from a home computer, would lead to levels of absurd ingeniuty.

** Personally, this troper just thinks Heather will come back unscathed, Alejandro will come back with shorter hair and maybe a scar or something (he probably won't come as a robot, because Chris said it was just temporary until he could get the proper medical attention), Sierra will probably come back with shorter hair (like Heather did in TDWT), and Zeke...gee, I think Ezekiel's dead. If he did come back, however. . .he would be in some sort of a cage because, well. . .he's not really. . .human. That aside, everyone else will come back just fine!
Line 1,160 ⟶ 1,147:
== The writers of the show aren't trolling Ezekiel fans... ==
On the contrary, they're trying to make him a more sympathetic and tragic character. In the first episode of TDWT, Ezekiel is shown to be annoying, but at the same time eager and determined to win the grand prize, which could be viewed as admirable. When he's voted off, he clings to the wing of the plane, willing to risk life and limb for a second chance to prove himself. When Ezekiel ends up {{spoiler|becoming a Gollum Expy}}, it's meant to be a [[Tear Jerker]] showing how poor Zeke has sacrificed everything, even {{spoiler|his sanity}} just to stay on the show. His subsequent {{spoiler|attempt to get the money, only to fall into the volcano}} is obviously meant to be an [[Alas, Poor Villain]] moment for Ezekiel, showing that no matter how hard he tries, there's just no way he can win. So, in conclusion, the writers set out to follow in The Kobold Necromancer's footseteps after all and make Ezekiel more likeable, but their attempts ended up [[Gone Horribly Wrong|going horribly wrong]].
* I also started to doubt of this theory but for other reason: see, there are almost 200000 followers of TDWT in Facebook. Surely there are lots of bots, but, even so, there are much people that watch TDWT. And, we ask, how many of these followers read [[Total Drama Comeback]] (which incidentally has a page with exactly 4 followers)? Or better, how many of these followers know that there such things as fanfics? I'm not sure about the trolling part, but I'd like to know what the writers actually had in mind when they chose this path.

Line 1,245 ⟶ 1,232:
Some of the writers were still pro-[[Duncanx Courtney]].They could have gone with the other route of Duncan breaking up with Courtney then hooking up with Gwen.They were upset about the change that they decided instead to do a character derailment on both Gwen and Duncan so that Courtney could get much more sympathy from the fans.The reason why Duncan went away and came back was that he would lose sympathy with the fans after seeing Courtney do nothing but miss him in his absence.As for Gwen they made her get close with Courtney so that fans would lose sympathy with her as well when it was revealed she kissed Duncan.They also made sure that to not give any closure on why Duncan switched his interest from Courtney to Gwen.To make sure Duncan was even more unsympathetic the Pro-CXD writers made him more jerkier to Courtney after the break up and for Gwen they made sure that she never is able to apologize to Courtney.The more Pro-Gwuncan writers got back at them by making Courtney even more worse after Gwen is eliminated.They basically made her yandere for Alejandro and attempts to vote out Heather when she was getting near to him.So,basically this plot was made so that the Gwuncan ship would be forever tainted with that kiss so that people who be less supportive of it plus it would give Courtney sympathy after her abusive behavior on Total Drama Action.
== Courtney would have gone Yandere anyway if Duncan broke up with her first and then hooked up with Gwen. ==
The reason is that as we can see from when she reacted to Heather getting close to Alejandro,she would have flipped to find out her ex-boyfriend dumped for her budding friend.This would have broken her trust with Gwen as well because her fears come true of the two getting together. I also have a feeling she would try to vote both of them off as revenge.Although in this case she would have less support for her.

However, there are several songs that lack vocals of the entire cast. It's simple: as long as you don't mention it (like DJ did in "Newf Kids on the Rock"), you won't get kicked out, as long as it wasn't a song in which someone WAS forced to sing (for example, "Greek Mix"). At least, that would explain why most of the songs are not sung by Cody...
* Wait, how does it explain why Cody in particular missed so many songs?
** Cody simply didn't worry about getting eliminated for not singing, and just didn't. Chris didn't call attention to this, and just left him in the game (because of Sierra, Gwen, his dislike of Duncan, etc.) I dunno, I just had a dumb little theory about why no one gets kicked off for not singing, despite there not being a lot of non-singers.
** Incorrect. If that were true, it would have been mentioned (via a confessional for example) and also, when he sings in the the very late ''Condor'' he's struggling to make lyrics for the song, meaning he actually cared about the rule at the time.
** Not really much of a ''wild'' guess, since even in the one episode DJ would seem to actually face consequences for not singing (Newf Kids), Noah still didn't sing. Then again, that whole sequence was more of a [[Deus Ex Machina]] to keep DJ in the game accidentally.
Line 1,268 ⟶ 1,255:
== Chef Hatchet is the animated reincarnation of Chef from [[South Park]]. ==
* One of them is a loud, [[Jerkass]], right-hand man to a sociopath who clearly hates all the campers, and the other is an [[Only Sane Man]] who loves kids, and more importantly, can actually cook. They're both black guys [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"|referred to as "chef"]], but the association ends there.
== There are many fan grabs about the old TDI contestants competing against the new TDROTI contestants, if they make a Season 5 of "Total Drama". ==
Line 1,276 ⟶ 1,263:
== Duncan wrote ''Total Drama Action'' ==
When you look at it like that, everything makes sense:
* Geoff's [[Character Derailment]] into a jerk is because Duncan got along with him best when they were torturing Harold.
* Trent turns into a [[Stalker
* Justin being ''Justin'' is because Duncan is secretly jealous of his good looks.
* Izzy, Bridgette, Lindsay's, etc. [[Flanderization]] is because Duncan never got along with them or knew them as more than one dimensional stereotypes.
* Owen being The Milestone is because Duncan is still angry at him for beating him in TDI when he lost the challenge.
* Leshawna [[Took a Level
* Courtney being a [[Jerk Sue]] is because Duncan liked her more when she was "bad".
I think that's all, but there may be more.
Line 1,295 ⟶ 1,282:
And halfway through, Chris will input a new rule: contestants that get voted off will [[Killed Off for Real|die.]] To circumvent lawsuits, he'll make the announcement (and any deaths) off-screen and make [[Ridiculously Human Robot]] copies of the dead contestants so nobody suspects anything. Because of this, nearly everyone will resort to desperate tactics to keep themselves or friends/boyfriends/girlfriends they care about from being killed. Naturally, this opens up a lot of opportunities for antagonists like Heather and Scott to exploit the game (e.g. threatening Gwen with, "if you don't make sure I win this challenge, I'll switch the votes and kill Duncan").

Line 1,329 ⟶ 1,316:
Like Samson in [[The Bible]], Heather's hair was the source of her power. When it was shaved off towards the end of ''Island'', she clearly lost her influence, forcing her to actually befriend the other campers during ''Action''. Even though her hair grew back in ''World Tour'', she still lacked the influence she had prior to "I Triple Dog Dare You", as she only had a short ponytail. By the time her hair grows back to its original length in ''Revenge of the Island'', she became full-on [[Alpha Bitch]] again.

== Season 4 is the creators' shot at [[Total Drama Comeback Series
I mean look at some of the contestants! Don't they remind you of some of of the newbie contestants in TDBG?
Line 1,387 ⟶ 1,374:
* Dawn, I'm pretty sure, is pretty popular, so she'll have an early elimination. Then, they'll bring her back the next season even better than before, pleasng the fans and raking in the ratings for the next season. It worked very well with Noah and Cody, so why can't they try it again?
** She's still here as of {{spoiler|episode 4}}, but the Noah Syndrome sounds like a great idea for a trope.
** {{spoiler|She was voted out in episode five, and it wasn't even her fault. So the theory is sound.}}
== Mike is/was suicidal, and a psych patient at a mental institution ==
Line 1,403 ⟶ 1,390:
** '''B''': ''Silent Bob''; see his page on the Total Drama Wiki for more information
** '''Cameron''': ''Michael Cera''; okay, look at his original design and compare the characters, both are obviously "woobies" with charming personalities
I haven't really figured out the rest yet but I'm almost certain that these are correct. It is difficult for writers to come up with all-new stereotypes, especially since twenty-two of them have been done already, and also, a lot of the characters that they think of may not fit in with the "reality show" genre. A few other TD fans have brought up a good point that Mike may just be a bunch of personalities the producers wanted to work with (but couldn't) crammed up into one guy. Plus, anyone else notice that Mike and Zoey are complete
* I think this can mean two things: the writers are changing the focus from the characters to the reality show itself, the fact that they're on a radioactive island can handwave this, they just want to throw eye-laser squirrels to see how the contestants cope with them, or they're focusing on the parody part of the show, so they used more expies this time.
