Hey everyone! Phew, it's been a while! Honestly, I've just been fangirling over well...everything. I am not the kind of person who can keep up with a blog, but I will try my best! Anywho, I thought i'd start us off with something I think we all know;
Total drama is on hold. ON HOLD! Okay, actually, I don't really mind this. Why? Because the last three seasons of total drama haven't exactly been my favorite. I long for the days of season 1-3, with twenty-six episodes, the original cast, and all the drama. I just don't connect with the new cast members like I do with the original ones. The drama on Total drama just isn't the same anymore on seasons 4-6. They're just so...ugh, what's the word? Oh, boring! The villains, the issues, they just aren't as fun. No one can be as bad as Heather, she will always be the best villain. Izzy will always be the greatest crazy. (though I do love Dawn) Part of the reason people love tv shows, books, movies, etc., is because of the characters. You grow to love characters as you watch them grow, change, and face new experiences. I just miss the original characters.
I think Total drama should do a couple of things to become what it once was. Here are my personal ideas;
1. Go back to twenty-six episodes. Everything just feels so rushed with only twelve. Their is so much more time for story and again, DRAMA, with twenty-six episodes.
2. Bring back the original characters! This one was pretty obvious, if my rant above wasn't any indication. I don't even care if you all add in some of the newer characters, as long as you don't pull that shit you did in All-stars.
3. You don't have to stay on the island! I love the first season of total drama, it was amaze-balls! But the island is getting boring, even if it's a different island. I know season 2 wasn't their most popular season, but you have to give creativity points.
4. Stop with the different ways to send people home! GAH, this has been so annoying to me! With different locations, I understood, but if you stay on the island, then just send them on the boat of shame! Also, just go with the usual cabins too.
5. Follow thru on plotlines. That Courtney and Gwen friendship thing in All-stars was a joke. To be quite honest, I didn't like the idea of it in the first place, I wanted Courtney to pummel Gwen. But, you could've at least followed thru on the storyline Courtney is pretty despicable, but I don't think she's THAT despicable.
I know this may seem harsh, but I love Total drama, which is why I am so critical. Do you think I'd have a blog dedicated to total drama if I didn't? No, I wouldn't.
*sighs*
Okay, so that rant is done. On with other matters like... (drum roll please!)
The Ridonculous race!
I am both excited and a bit afraid. I know that the show could be great, just as great as Total drama, but you have to go into that with the same notion that it isn't total drama. It's a completely different series. Pull from it's predecessor, yes, but don't just make a copy.
I'm going to post a bit more on the ridonculous race later in it's own blog post. But just know that we may be seeing some familiar faces from Total drama on their, and I am ecstactic.
Anyway, thanks for reading!
