Island was easily the best season. Every character fit their archetype perfectly, Chris was cool and not insane, and there were no bad derailments. Plus every challenge felt realistic enough and the general vibe of the show felt more carefree compared to other seasons to make it feel authentic.
I agree. Everyone says World Tour is the best, but with Team Victory, Mutant Ezekiel, Noah and Tyler being underrated and the LOVE TRIANGLE (Or better: some of the best characters' derailment), I think it's one of the worst seasons. (This is my opinion)
@@nick0911 idk about that, I've gone through a stage rn where I've binge watched all the seasons (im part way through all stars right now), and I can say tdwt was my favorite so far. with the catchy songs every episode and the traveling all over the place with many differently themed challenges based on cultures, I feel like it is one of the best. yes, Chris is spiraling into insanity after island and action, but I feel like world tour is my favorite. I don't know, maybe I'm biased because that's the one I remember most from my childhood, who knows, but that's my take
@@nick0911 Yeah I liked World Tour but it had it's fair share of flaws. Still a hood classic tho, I'd watch it again and enjoy it. Island just hits different and everyone feels perfect. I would not call it the worst tho.
The funniest part about Geoff going through the camp sewage system was the fact that he only got cologne for it; he was definitely a much better sport about that than I would've been if that happened to me 🤣
@@zaylendaniels in truth I think Pahkitew Island & All-Stars can be fix you just have to know what characters your given with. Plus if he could make on “What If Mal Won All-Stars” I think he could fix both Pahkitew Island & All-Stars.
My favourite episodes are the Triple dog dare episode, brunch of disgustingness, dodgeball, fear factors, cooking showdown, the dirt bikes and the paintball hunting.
I was absolutely blown away by how amazing the Geoff and Gwen friendship played out, best part of the show in my opinion, what I didn’t like though was how a few episodes later Gwen was going over everyone in the confessions and Geoff wasn’t even part of the “normal” people she met there. She grouped him with everyone else who she despised
THANK YOU i've always thought this too. the writers just forgot they ever even bonded which i'm not sure only makes next seasons with them disappointing (i haven't finished any of the other gen 1 seasons yet), but it's definitely disappointing watching the finale that comes SHORTLY AFTER and them throwing that episode away.
As a duncney fan, Basic Straining is easily my comfort episode and the best imo. After that would be Haute Camp-ture but in all reality, I love every episode of island cause it's the superior season :))
Personally, I would like to see you rank the songs from World Tour. Those are always interesting to me, because you can sort of learn people's taste in music from those videos.
Very interesting ranking. I do agree with most of it though, especially the episode you placed in first place. I agree with your thoughts on the episode with the guys abusing Harold, I do agree that they took it too far. He got them back great IMO with the Courtney elimination. Total Drama Island is also my favourite season in the series, every episode is a delight to rewatch. There were many things in the season that I wish were expanded on, such as Gwen & Geoff's friendship, and to a lesser extent, Owen and Heather's interactions. All of their interactions were hilarious, especially in the tri-armed episode. Not Quite So Famous is probably the episode I remember best from my childhood, Heather's lines were great and comedic, and the comeback from Gwen with the red ants is still hilarious, lol. Izzy is probably my nostalgic favourite character from this season. She truly had some great scenes and lines in the show, and her comedy was always great. Camp Castaways and Wawanakwa gone wild are 2 additional classic episodes this season. Solid episodes all around. But, the one where Lindsay stood up for herself was even better. I loved seeing her stand up for herself, she is one of my favourite characters. The special episode (which you ranked as the best) is a great way to end the season. The interactions in this episode were all great, but Team E-Scope was my favourite. I wish that team got more screen time, they were golden. I love this episode. Great video as always man, looking forward to seeing how you rank the Total Drama Action episodes.
I definitely agree with 26. It's like Lindsay's elimination where the writers had no idea how to properly eliminate the person that they just shoehorned it in in the worst way possible that made no sense.
Heather Gwen Duncan Leshawna Owen Izzy Geoff Lindsay Harold Courtney & somewhat DJ made the season very tolerable for me as well as Bridgette & Trent are ok to tolerable at best.
My siblings and I loved when Total Drama Island premiered. We watched it religiously over the summer, went on the website to play the games and check for any news, laughed and enjoyed it. It’s a memory that I can now treasure
Personally I enjoy World Tour more than island but it’s a very very close race. I would like to see your thoughts on the episodes of Action and World tour though. And I’m morbidly curious as to how you would rank All Stars and Pahkitew.
Yeah I definitely agree with this list with I Triple Dog Dare be higher personally the heather punishment was sooo worth the wait and watch also please rank the other seasons eps it’d be really cool imo

The Very Last Episode Really! 20. No Pain, No Game 19. Wawanakwa Gone Wild 18. X-Treme Torture 17. If You Can't Take The Heat 16. Are We There Yeti? 15. Hide And Be Sneaky 14. The Big Sleep 13.

The Sucky Outdoors 3. That's Off The Chain! 2. Total Drama 4× Island 1. Hook, Line And Screamer
I’m just now getting back into rewatching total drama as I haven’t watched it since I was a kid, thanks for this, I’ll use it as a reference for my watch through.
honestly, that argument towards the first season being the best one is beyond understandable, World tour is definitely my favorite season but there are some issues that left me either disappointed or still asking, why? all the characters, the interactions, the drama, the challenges, etc are what left me in a positive result on how i love this series so much.
I dont even think I could properly rank these episodes. That's how good and consistent season 1 was. Like yeah I have some favorites but even the ones I don't remember as well are still good.
i would love to see you rank the episodes of the other seasons. and my favorite episode is camp castaway. i just love how the final four consestants end up in a castaway scenario, while chef and chris have some relaxing bonding time. it's funny to see them bond while the contestants think tgey ended up on a deserted island and try to fend for themselves when they actually are just an island over from camp wawanakwa, it was hilarious. plus mr.coconut was an hilarious addition, along with Owens dramatic transformation into an actual island survivor in like a day.
My ranking is: 26: Camp Castaways. I regularly forget this episode even exists. 25: Up The Creek. First of the 'Sadie lasts way too long without contributing anything to the overall plot' episodes. If it weren't for the overall funnier jokes, this one would be in 26th place. 24: The Sucky Outdoors. Average. But the start of Geoff/Bridgette was good. 23: Are We There Yeti? Average again. Just a bit better than The Sucky Outdoors. 22: Paintball Deer Hunter. Cody getting mauled was annoying, but Beth standing up to Heather was nice. Plus Duncan/Courtney. Again, Sadie lasted too long without adding anything. 21: Dodgebrawl. Noah was hilarious, if a bit frustrating, in this episode, but everyone else was really good. Justin should've been eliminated here, fight me. 20: Not-So Happy Campers - Part 1. The first episode. My main complaint is how slow it is. 19: Hook, Line and Screamer. Just fine overall. Not much to really add here, but the interactions are nice. Also, some funny Owen/Izzy moments. 18: Search And Do Not Destroy. Pretty good Gwen/Trent moments here, and generally a pretty good episode. Also, Heather definitely was a good antagonist here. 17: Phobia Factor. Sadie should've been eliminated here, and Tyler or Noah should've gone in Who Can You Trust instead. Otherwise, pretty solid. 16: Not-So Happy Campers - Part 2. The first challenge, shows nearly everyone pretty well (save for Noah.) 15: No Pain, No Game. Like Brunch of Disgustingness, this one sets up the dynamics going into the merge. Along with adding Izzy as a wild card. Eva coming then leaving immediately was fine. 14: Wawanakwa Gone Wild. Very good at bringing us into the end-game, even if this was the perfect opportunity to get rid of Heather. 13: Hide and Be Sneaky. Minus a few dumb challenge rules, pretty good. 12: Who Can You Trust? SADIE IS FINALLY GONE! Along with that, good interactions and sets Courtney up as a threat. 11: If You Can't Take The Heat. Definitely a good episode. I still have the Sadie grudge though. 10: Brunch of Disgustingness. Sets up the merge really well. All of the dynamics are great. 9: X-Treme Torture. Pretty good. Harold is hilarious in this one. 8: That's Off The Chain! Another dumb challenge rule, but Lindsay standing up to Heather was way better than Beth doing so. 7: The Big Sleep. Definitely the best starting episode. Sets up lots of dynamics - such as Gwen/Trent, and Heather's alliance. 6: Trial By Tri-Armed Triathlon. If Gwen wasn't such a big jerk in this one, it'd be higher. 5: The Very Last Episode, Really! A great finale. Each of the finalists getting help was great, even if Gwen's side was just Leshawna, Trent, Cody and for some reason Eva. 4: Not Quite Famous. Starts up more dynamics, and a fun challenge. Overall pretty fun. Now for the top three, I re-watch these a lot. 3: I Triple Dog Dare You! A really satisfying ending for Heather, and a really good challenge. 2: Basic Straining. Great challenge, and Harold's vengeance on Duncan was definitely pretty good. 1: Haute Camp-Ture. The interactions were great, Noah was very hilarious, Courtney chasing after Harold, and the start of the 'Are You Tyler?' running gag. Leshawna's elimination was dumb, but still, the rest of the episode is S-Tier for sure. Total Drama Drama Drama Drama Island is a mid-point episode between Island and Action. So I wouldn't rank it with the regular Island eps.
u know im at the begnining of this video and im thinking "really these episodes this low!?" but then i realize like every episode is solid and this show is just iconic and amazing
My Favorite Episodes are Hide and be Sneaky, Dodgebrawl, and Hook line and Screamer, and my Least Favorite Episodes are The Sucky Outdoors, Are we there Yeti, and Trial by Tri-Armed Triathlon
Isn’t karma something that happens to someone randomly for doing something mean technically Gwen and owen caused her elimination since owen spilt the freebies so obviously they’re gonna eliminate heather and heather mistakenly kicking the razor to shave her head that’s not karma imo it’s more revenge then karma
I completely agree that there was no bad Total Drama Island episode, and whenever I say “bad” while referring to total drama island episodes, I mean “least good”
I would have to switch the best and worst episodes from your list. Gwen is my favorite character, and her opening of TDDDDI is definitely the stupidest plot twist of the series. Also I loved that the Brunch of Dusgustingness had a one-off team realignment for a reward challenge. It was essentially the halftime show, and it felt like a nice change of pace from the normal "one team wins, the other team votes someone off" formula.
4:08 think this moment might of been better (or worse depending on who you asked) if part of the gag was it was a continuous gag heard in the background of scenes and had less jump cuts, but wouldn't want the actors to hurt in the eventm
I don't know how to rank these, but I'll say one thing - I loved Hook, Line and Screamer because part of my exams in my penultimate year of school was a genre study, and the genre was horror. The whole point of the challenge was to know horror movie tropes and survive from them. Stick together (if you watch Dream Warriors, Taryn and Will get separated from the group and die, but Kincaid, Joey and Kristen manage to stick together and survive the movie - yes, all of them die in Dream Master but they stayed together at the end of Dream Warriors and made it to the end, although the end of that dream was Kristen crying with Nancy dead in her arms). There's lots of dangers - keep the right ones (Heather in a face mask shaving her legs is not any cause for alarm). Don't take a shower alone (if you don't know this rule, watch 1960's Psycho). Don't answer the door. Don't leave the house. Don't answer the phone. But most of all, don't scream. (Yeah, I think I liked this episode because it had a lot of Scream elements about horror movie tropes that had been used in the 80s and 90s). Ironically, we watched no 80s horror movies at school - we watched Nosferatu, the original 1930s Dracula and Frankenstein, then Psycho and Night Of The Living Dead (from the 60s) and The Exorcist (1973). None of those uber-popular 80s movies that put slasher horror on the map (okay, so Psycho did it, but slashers were majorly popular in the 80s...we also skipped the sci-fi horror era of the 50s).
Hook Line And Screamer Was One Of My Fave Episodes Actually, Not Because DJ Got Eliminated But Because It Had So Comedic For Me That’s Off The Chain Is One Of My Hated Episodes Because Of Lindsay’s Elimination, I mean It’s The Most Robbed Elimination! Total 4 Dramas Island Is Also One Of My Hated Episodes, I Hated It Because I Hated How Gwen Gave Up Her 100,000 Prize Just to Get Booted Early For The 1,000,000 Prize In Action
It's been a while since I watched the series, so I'm surprised at how much I remembered! I definitely want this idea to continue for Action and the other seasons.
Dodgebrawl was great. I loved all the challenges in Island, I think TDA is super underrated, if you look past Beth being in the finale then it’s fine. Challenges are great, Justin is great, Harold Lindsay and Duncan are fantastic. Obviously ruining Trent was stupid too. Also More contestants should have got in too. One thing I did also love about Island is Chris and his interactions with the contestants, like Trent in Phobia Factor. Also World Tour was soooo good,I would have preferred Noah InThe second chances d Cody to shine without Sierra, but it’s still great, anyway Great Vid as always dude
10:02 I dunno. I feel like Courtney getting booted in action because duncan was too sleepy from reading the list she gave him to be a better boyfriend and thus him accidentally voting for her was pretty funny. And I know that there’s another scene where Duncan says that his vote was intentional, but he’s literally sleeping in the scene and wakes up *after* he presses the button, so that’s the version I’m going with XD
i have a video idea :))) rank all of the "good guys" in every season of total drama and show us your thoughts on them and if they could be better (you can also include "good guys" from the ridonculas race :DDD
I love Island. But WT was just so iconic for me. I find it to be better because we already know the characters and there’s no time spent on “introducing” characters. We get to build off their arch’s from Action and Island and it just feels so good.
If Harold was leaving his dirty worn underwear all over the cabin then I think he had some of that stuff coming. The sandwich thing was too far but the bed out on the dock was hilarious. I think what makes it work is how he only had to say his bad and not do it anymore yet wanted to deny it was him. If he is the only one who wears briefs in that entire cabin then he can't deny its him doing it.
Harold getting bullied was unwarranted in the beginning, but after cheating to get Courtney unfairly eliminated he deserved everything he got. He should've stood up to Duncan like Cody eventually did in World Tour, just punch him in the face to show he's not a push over and Duncan would've respected him.
Sorry that I'm a little late to the party, but I only just found your channel and this video. For me the original season is my favorite. One reason is that I went to a camp in Algonquin Park, Ontario, Canada in the mid 1970's (1975/1976), and the camp in the show brought back memories (good and bad) and helped me get over the bad ones. The other reason why this is my favorite season is that this first season it was all new and fresh. The later seasons to me seemed too contrived. They couldn't just do another season at the camp, but instead had to come up with new gimmicks instead.
I don't have an overall favorite episode. Maybe you can do the seasons from best to worst. My favorite season is Island and Action, dead last. But I would love to know your thoughts too
Ya I know this vid is 4 months old but would you consider doing this for every season? Could be interesting idea imo but it’s just a suggestion. EDIT: I appreciate ur content a lot pls keep doing what you’re doing.
Honestly I didn't like paintball deer hunter mainly because they had the perfect chance to vote off heather but the writers needed to keep her so everyone just voted cody for not much of a reason at all

Your lowest ranked episode is literally my top favorite in the whole show. I think that just speaks wonders of TDI's overall quality.
I hate that episode
Are you something of a scientist yourself?
If that was suger she would have won for the girls
Same
@@mittens1630 so true
Island was easily the best season. Every character fit their archetype perfectly, Chris was cool and not insane, and there were no bad derailments. Plus every challenge felt realistic enough and the general vibe of the show felt more carefree compared to other seasons to make it feel authentic.

I pretty much enjoyed every season except Action. Everything just felt off that season. They ruined Trent the most. What they did to him was terrible.
The funniest part about Geoff going through the camp sewage system was the fact that he only got cologne for it; he was definitely a much better sport about that than I would've been if that happened to me 🤣
Geoff is my fav character
i think he needed that cologne after what he did 💀
Can we see him doing a video about how he would fix other lesser Total Drama Seasons. Like the comment if you like to see him do that.
How to fix Pakitew Island
*DONT MAKE IT*
Would be an interesting video from him.
@@zaylendaniels same could be said for all stars ngl.
good idea
@@zaylendaniels in truth I think Pahkitew Island & All-Stars can be fix you just have to know what characters your given with. Plus if he could make on “What If Mal Won All-Stars” I think he could fix both Pahkitew Island & All-Stars.
My favourite episodes are the Triple dog dare episode, brunch of disgustingness, dodgeball, fear factors, cooking showdown, the dirt bikes and the paintball hunting.
First, not cooking showdown, If You Cannot f***ing stand the heat...
And "the dirt bikes" aka. That's off the chain was a horrible episode.
@@omribn my choices mate. I don’t remember the name for every episode because I just need to remember the plot.

@@catandogclone7880 Yeah Ok Just Trying To Help

@@exileforever2508 Yeah you're right.

As a duncney fan, Basic Straining is easily my comfort episode and the best imo. After that would be Haute Camp-ture but in all reality, I love every episode of island cause it's the superior season :))
Any episode with courtney is the best
*cough cough Gwen cough cough*
@@thechipmaster1308 Wasn't in a forced relationship with Duncan at the time. Another reason why Island was so great.
I only stan Duncney in TDI because in other series they were pretty toxic.
dodgebrawl was legit one of the best episodes, it was so memorable
I'd say it's the 2nd best episode in Total Drama Island
Personally, I would like to see you rank the songs from World Tour. Those are always interesting to me, because you can sort of learn people's taste in music from those videos.
Very interesting ranking. I do agree with most of it though, especially the episode you placed in first place.
I agree with your thoughts on the episode with the guys abusing Harold, I do agree that they took it too far. He got them back great IMO with the Courtney elimination.
Total Drama Island is also my favourite season in the series, every episode is a delight to rewatch. There were many things in the season that I wish were expanded on, such as Gwen & Geoff's friendship, and to a lesser extent, Owen and Heather's interactions. All of their interactions were hilarious, especially in the tri-armed episode.

The special episode (which you ranked as the best) is a great way to end the season. The interactions in this episode were all great, but Team E-Scope was my favourite. I wish that team got more screen time, they were golden. I love this episode.
Great video as always man, looking forward to seeing how you rank the Total Drama Action episodes.
Respect for typing all that
The Cooking episode is literally Top 5. The in-fighting between the Gopher girls is hilarious and so satisfying.
I definitely agree with 26. It's like Lindsay's elimination where the writers had no idea how to properly eliminate the person that they just shoehorned it in in the worst way possible that made no sense.
Harold, Noah, Gwen, Trent and Duncan were all my favorites. They all had some pretty great moments this season...mostly..
Heather Gwen Duncan Leshawna Owen Izzy Geoff Lindsay Harold Courtney & somewhat DJ made the season very tolerable for me as well as Bridgette & Trent are ok to tolerable at best.
0:01 is just like to point out that this promo is missing Ezekiel, Tyler and Trent
Can’t wait to hear for the other seasons rankings too 😤 especially if u do the spin off, the ridonculous race 👀
My siblings and I loved when Total Drama Island premiered. We watched it religiously over the summer, went on the website to play the games and check for any news, laughed and enjoyed it. It’s a memory that I can now treasure
12:08 yes I always thought that to she literally didn’t care and jumped in so screaming no second thoughts no hesitation if she did lie that was smart
Personally I enjoy World Tour more than island but it’s a very very close race. I would like to see your thoughts on the episodes of Action and World tour though. And I’m morbidly curious as to how you would rank All Stars and Pahkitew.
I'd love to see one of these for TDA! It's my favorite season.
Yeah I definitely agree with this list with I Triple Dog Dare be higher personally the heather punishment was sooo worth the wait and watch also please rank the other seasons eps it’d be really cool imo
I still think Heather reading Gwen's diary out loud was the worst thing she's ever done. Good thing she got attacked by a red ant farm for it.

honestly, that argument towards the first season being the best one is beyond understandable, World tour is definitely my favorite season but there are some issues that left me either disappointed or still asking, why?
all the characters, the interactions, the drama, the challenges, etc are what left me in a positive result on how i love this series so much.
True, theres your favorite season, and the best season, people have to understand that.
I dont even think I could properly rank these episodes. That's how good and consistent season 1 was. Like yeah I have some favorites but even the ones I don't remember as well are still good.
i would love to see you rank the episodes of the other seasons. and my favorite episode is camp castaway. i just love how the final four consestants end up in a castaway scenario, while chef and chris have some relaxing bonding time. it's funny to see them bond while the contestants think tgey ended up on a deserted island and try to fend for themselves when they actually are just an island over from camp wawanakwa, it was hilarious. plus mr.coconut was an hilarious addition, along with Owens dramatic transformation into an actual island survivor in like a day.
My ranking is:
26: Camp Castaways. I regularly forget this episode even exists.
25: Up The Creek. First of the 'Sadie lasts way too long without contributing anything to the overall plot' episodes. If it weren't for the overall funnier jokes, this one would be in 26th place.
24: The Sucky Outdoors. Average. But the start of Geoff/Bridgette was good.
23: Are We There Yeti? Average again. Just a bit better than The Sucky Outdoors.
22: Paintball Deer Hunter. Cody getting mauled was annoying, but Beth standing up to Heather was nice. Plus Duncan/Courtney. Again, Sadie lasted too long without adding anything.
21: Dodgebrawl. Noah was hilarious, if a bit frustrating, in this episode, but everyone else was really good. Justin should've been eliminated here, fight me.
20: Not-So Happy Campers - Part 1. The first episode. My main complaint is how slow it is.
19: Hook, Line and Screamer. Just fine overall. Not much to really add here, but the interactions are nice. Also, some funny Owen/Izzy moments.
18: Search And Do Not Destroy. Pretty good Gwen/Trent moments here, and generally a pretty good episode. Also, Heather definitely was a good antagonist here.
17: Phobia Factor. Sadie should've been eliminated here, and Tyler or Noah should've gone in Who Can You Trust instead. Otherwise, pretty solid.
16: Not-So Happy Campers - Part 2. The first challenge, shows nearly everyone pretty well (save for Noah.)
15: No Pain, No Game. Like Brunch of Disgustingness, this one sets up the dynamics going into the merge. Along with adding Izzy as a wild card. Eva coming then leaving immediately was fine.
14: Wawanakwa Gone Wild. Very good at bringing us into the end-game, even if this was the perfect opportunity to get rid of Heather.
13: Hide and Be Sneaky. Minus a few dumb challenge rules, pretty good.
12: Who Can You Trust? SADIE IS FINALLY GONE! Along with that, good interactions and sets Courtney up as a threat.
11: If You Can't Take The Heat. Definitely a good episode. I still have the Sadie grudge though.
10: Brunch of Disgustingness. Sets up the merge really well. All of the dynamics are great.
9: X-Treme Torture. Pretty good. Harold is hilarious in this one.
8: That's Off The Chain! Another dumb challenge rule, but Lindsay standing up to Heather was way better than Beth doing so.
7: The Big Sleep. Definitely the best starting episode. Sets up lots of dynamics - such as Gwen/Trent, and Heather's alliance.
6: Trial By Tri-Armed Triathlon. If Gwen wasn't such a big jerk in this one, it'd be higher.
5: The Very Last Episode, Really! A great finale. Each of the finalists getting help was great, even if Gwen's side was just Leshawna, Trent, Cody and for some reason Eva.
4: Not Quite Famous. Starts up more dynamics, and a fun challenge. Overall pretty fun.
Now for the top three, I re-watch these a lot.
3: I Triple Dog Dare You! A really satisfying ending for Heather, and a really good challenge.
2: Basic Straining. Great challenge, and Harold's vengeance on Duncan was definitely pretty good.
1: Haute Camp-Ture. The interactions were great, Noah was very hilarious, Courtney chasing after Harold, and the start of the 'Are You Tyler?' running gag. Leshawna's elimination was dumb, but still, the rest of the episode is S-Tier for sure.
Total Drama Drama Drama Drama Island is a mid-point episode between Island and Action. So I wouldn't rank it with the regular Island eps.
Sadie is meh but she couldnt be gone in phobia since she was one of the only that scored for the killer bass in that episode
but noah did nothing in episode 4, this was his episode to be eliminated, noah was not meant to get far in tdi
Jeez do u hate Sadie?
haute camp - ture as number one ,,,,, you have good tastes
Agreed 👌
u know im at the begnining of this video and im thinking "really these episodes this low!?" but then i realize like every episode is solid and this show is just iconic and amazing
9:11 I’d say Picnic at Hanging Dork for World Tour also shares that #1 spot, that episode probably has the most petty drama of the series lol
i don't know dude, have you seen "I See London"?
Episode 25 was just PERFECTION
“I’m a person with pretty sensitive taste buds to certain normal foods.” That’s just a nice way of saying he’s picky.
I'd be interested in seeing more Total Drama season rankings.
For hook line and screamer can we take a second to admire DJ's voice actor for all the screaming he did
Episode 1 and 2 were called not so great outdoors
My Favorite Episodes are Hide and be Sneaky, Dodgebrawl, and Hook line and Screamer, and my Least Favorite Episodes are The Sucky Outdoors, Are we there Yeti, and Trial by Tri-Armed Triathlon
My favorite was I Triple Dog Dare You. I loved how karma finally kicked Heather in the butt and she payed for it miserably
Isn’t karma something that happens to someone randomly for doing something mean technically Gwen and owen caused her elimination since owen spilt the freebies so obviously they’re gonna eliminate heather and heather mistakenly kicking the razor to shave her head that’s not karma imo it’s more revenge then karma
I completely agree that there was no bad Total Drama Island episode, and whenever I say “bad” while referring to total drama island episodes, I mean “least good”
I would have to switch the best and worst episodes from your list. Gwen is my favorite character, and her opening of TDDDDI is definitely the stupidest plot twist of the series. Also I loved that the Brunch of Dusgustingness had a one-off team realignment for a reward challenge. It was essentially the halftime show, and it felt like a nice change of pace from the normal "one team wins, the other team votes someone off" formula.
4:08 think this moment might of been better (or worse depending on who you asked) if part of the gag was it was a continuous gag heard in the background of scenes and had less jump cuts, but wouldn't want the actors to hurt in the eventm
I don't know how to rank these, but I'll say one thing - I loved Hook, Line and Screamer because part of my exams in my penultimate year of school was a genre study, and the genre was horror. The whole point of the challenge was to know horror movie tropes and survive from them. Stick together (if you watch Dream Warriors, Taryn and Will get separated from the group and die, but Kincaid, Joey and Kristen manage to stick together and survive the movie - yes, all of them die in Dream Master but they stayed together at the end of Dream Warriors and made it to the end, although the end of that dream was Kristen crying with Nancy dead in her arms). There's lots of dangers - keep the right ones (Heather in a face mask shaving her legs is not any cause for alarm). Don't take a shower alone (if you don't know this rule, watch 1960's Psycho). Don't answer the door. Don't leave the house. Don't answer the phone. But most of all, don't scream. (Yeah, I think I liked this episode because it had a lot of Scream elements about horror movie tropes that had been used in the 80s and 90s). Ironically, we watched no 80s horror movies at school - we watched Nosferatu, the original 1930s Dracula and Frankenstein, then Psycho and Night Of The Living Dead (from the 60s) and The Exorcist (1973). None of those uber-popular 80s movies that put slasher horror on the map (okay, so Psycho did it, but slashers were majorly popular in the 80s...we also skipped the sci-fi horror era of the 50s).
You talk about all my favorite shows this is why I love your channel!
I agree with the bike racing episode. Watching Lindsey curse was awesome. I also agree completely with the top 3
i’d love to see another ranking for the other TD seasons like this.
You know I'm really glad you talk about total drama cause you're the only person I want to hear about it from
Love these thanks for your hard work
Hook Line And Screamer Was One Of My Fave Episodes Actually, Not Because DJ Got Eliminated But Because It Had So Comedic For Me
That’s Off The Chain Is One Of My Hated Episodes Because Of Lindsay’s Elimination, I mean It’s The Most Robbed Elimination!
Total 4 Dramas Island Is Also One Of My Hated Episodes, I Hated It Because I Hated How Gwen Gave Up Her 100,000 Prize Just to Get Booted Early For The 1,000,000 Prize In Action
It's been a while since I watched the series, so I'm surprised at how much I remembered! I definitely want this idea to continue for Action and the other seasons.
Favourite episodes for me are the dodgeball one,the psyho killer episode, the camping episode and the episode where they face their fears
Brunch of disgusting is acctually the episode I think started Chris insane insanity
1:56 the reason for this is Leshawnas voice actor couldn’t voice and originally she would be eliminated fairly. They needed a substitute way though.
I feel like this is gonna end up being one of his most popular videos
My favorite was the horror one. I absolutely loved it
My edit: how the heck is it so low. This episode is like my third favorite in the whole show. I get your reasons but still
He realizes that it was a transformer reference right? I mean Duncan literally says that's more than meets the eye
Dodgebrawl was great. I loved all the challenges in Island, I think TDA is super underrated, if you look past Beth being in the finale then it’s fine. Challenges are great, Justin is great, Harold Lindsay and Duncan are fantastic. Obviously ruining Trent was stupid too. Also More contestants should have got in too. One thing I did also love about Island is Chris and his interactions with the contestants, like Trent in Phobia Factor. Also World Tour was soooo good,I would have preferred Noah InThe second chances d Cody to shine without Sierra, but it’s still great, anyway Great Vid as always dude
Hook line and screamer was my fave
YES! PLEASE rank Total Drama Action next!
10:02 I dunno. I feel like Courtney getting booted in action because duncan was too sleepy from reading the list she gave him to be a better boyfriend and thus him accidentally voting for her was pretty funny. And I know that there’s another scene where Duncan says that his vote was intentional, but he’s literally sleeping in the scene and wakes up *after* he presses the button, so that’s the version I’m going with XD
Coincidence: X-Treme-Torture was episode 13 and the episode's ranking was 13th
and harold was eliminated in this episode and his final ranking is 13th
Favorite episodes are the dodgeball one, the animal hunting, and the dares.
i totally agree with not liking the way lashana [i have no idea how to write her name] was eliminated i was kinda shocked by how underwhelming it was
but i would have rated the awake-aton higher
i have a video idea :))) rank all of the "good guys" in every season of total drama and show us your thoughts on them and if they could be better (you can also include "good guys" from the ridonculas race :DDD
Haute camp ture was my least favourite because Leshawna Was Unfairly Voted off-
To be fair, Geoff was Team Gwen in the TDA Aftermath.
The Gaffers were far better than the Grips
The fact that you ranked my second favorite episode as your second least favorite episode even though you still like it is crazy but it makes sense.
I love Island. But WT was just so iconic for me. I find it to be better because we already know the characters and there’s no time spent on “introducing” characters. We get to build off their arch’s from Action and Island and it just feels so good.
Same
Good video, really! 😊
funny how the episode trent was eliminated in placed 9th
If Harold was leaving his dirty worn underwear all over the cabin then I think he had some of that stuff coming. The sandwich thing was too far but the bed out on the dock was hilarious. I think what makes it work is how he only had to say his bad and not do it anymore yet wanted to deny it was him. If he is the only one who wears briefs in that entire cabin then he can't deny its him doing it.
Harold getting bullied was unwarranted in the beginning, but after cheating to get Courtney unfairly eliminated he deserved everything he got. He should've stood up to Duncan like Cody eventually did in World Tour, just punch him in the face to show he's not a push over and Duncan would've respected him.
I think Leshawna got voted out because she beat up Chris the previous episode and wanted to punish her
Props to you for ranking them all, I don't think I could because every episode is near perfect.
Would love to see your rankings of all the season from best to worst!
Mine is
7. All-Stars
6. Pahkitew Island
5. Action
4. Revenge of The Island
3. Ridonculous Race
2. Island
1. World Tour
Will you do top total drama action episodes
Sorry that I'm a little late to the party, but I only just found your channel and this video. For me the original season is my favorite. One reason is that I went to a camp in Algonquin Park, Ontario, Canada in the mid 1970's (1975/1976), and the camp in the show brought back memories (good and bad) and helped me get over the bad ones. The other reason why this is my favorite season is that this first season it was all new and fresh. The later seasons to me seemed too contrived. They couldn't just do another season at the camp, but instead had to come up with new gimmicks instead.
I don't have an overall favorite episode. Maybe you can do the seasons from best to worst. My favorite season is Island and Action, dead last. But I would love to know your thoughts too
Ya I know this vid is 4 months old but would you consider doing this for every season? Could be interesting idea imo but it’s just a suggestion.
EDIT: I appreciate ur content a lot pls keep doing what you’re doing.
Honestly I didn't like paintball deer hunter mainly because they had the perfect chance to vote off heather but the writers needed to keep her so everyone just voted cody for not much of a reason at all
