Total Drama Island: Reboot

This reboot has too much pettiness in this series with Chris's evil challenges and Emma being too hardcore against Chase. Chris's voice doesn't match up with the original, but Chiefs was alright. Almost half of the characters weren't exactly the sharpest tools in the shed. (Zee, Chase, Raj, and Wayne)

I've been a huge fan of total drama since 2007 and I love that they just keep coming out with more seasons. Total drama 2023 was awesome but the new season for 2025 is AMAZINGLY FUNNY!! I love the angle of everybody's personality shown more in the new seasons. It gives me the opportunity to have more favorites. The host of the show is always number one as well as chef haha. Caleb is starting to be one of my favorites because we get to see more of him. I really enjoy the role that Ripper plays and season two with the whole Axle situation. The whole concept of the show since 2007 has been AWESOME.

Overall, Total Drama (2023) is a fantastic remake as there is tons of diversity, creativity, throwbacks, and lessons learned. I am really, really, REALLY hoping for a 3rd season of the show.

However, there is one thing I wish we have gotten more of and that is the character Lauren, a.k.a. Scary Girl. I see tons of potential in this character as there needs to be a reason why she is so scary and intimidating to the other contestants. She clearly stated in her audition tape that she wanted to make new friends but her scary appeal makes such a thing impossible. If we get a third season, I want to see new contestants and some of those contestants befriend Lauren and have her open up on why she acts the way she does. It's clear that there's more to Lauren/Scary Girl than she's letting on and a third season will give her the development she clearly deserves!

You guys im loving this!! Total drama is a long time favourite of mine and when I found out a new season is in the making I was excited but also wary. I was hoping it would be better than Pahkitew Island which is def the lowest quality of the newer seasons. This thing did NOT disappoint! The characters are actually fun and make their presence be remembered. Am I able to name everyone in Pahk Island? Nope. In Revenge? Probably. 2023? For sure!! I also love some of the designs. Damien is really cool and Scary Girl is a rebranded version of Izzy but creepier somehow?? Both the first and second season have fun challenges (except for THAT episode that we won't talk about. Yk the one I mean, right Ripper?). I'm hoping for a 3rd one, it would also be cool seeing older contestants but since it's 15y in the future they'd be adults now so that would be kinda odd I guess.

I seriously want to ask the producers, writers and directors of this series: "did you know what you were making a series dor a streaming service or did you think you were making a cable series?" Because tbe only series that i think represents the gold standard for an animated series made for a streaming service is "Archer". The series that made it to over 10 seasons.

The original TDI is closer to "Archer" than this series. Characters get pretty good arcs, we get some mature jokes and themes, characters actually shows some skin and variety to clothes or curves.

I look at TDI 2023 and I am thinking: did you know that were made for a streaming service or the Disney Channel?

If just feels like the unnecessarily made this series lazily instead if taking advantage of the streaming service and making a more R rated version or something.
