Hey folks, how have you been?

Well, with another eternity comes another one of my Total Drama memes

Well, it was about time that I decide my rankings for all of the Total Drama characters of both the first and second generation casts, especially with speculation surrounding Season Five kicking into high gear. I remain a huge fan of the series and many of the characters who come with it, and in spite of all the bull us fans have to keep putting up with in following the series, there's no doubt that before it started giving us trouble it gave us so many unique characters to enjoy, or enjoy hating

So now I will rank 41 of the most prominent characters to star in the series. Thanks to this really great meme designed by my friend , I feel I can rate them fairly accurately, and now I can give you my quick opinion on all of these characters in one go.

NOTE: Even now I'm not sure if all of these rankings are entirely true to how I feel so the exact order in which they have been placed should probably not be too huge a concern for anyone. And to be fair there's more characters I like rather than dislike, so even if they rank lower than others, that doesn't necessarily reflect hate or even dislike for the lower-ranked ones.

Also, I know many fans here have either an avid love or an avid hate for the characters on this list, and I want to make clear that I don't want any angry comments regarding how I've elected to rank some of these characters. We all have our views and opinions, and this is just me offering my own. After all, we're all just fans.

Well that's enough of the jibjab, let's get to it.

1) Gwen

Even now and in spite of all that she's been through in the past few years, I still hold nothing but strong support and admiration for Gwen. Still one of the best of a long series of amazing Goth gals, Gwen still wins me over with her dark yet alluring sense of style, sharp wit, passion for art, and surprisingly energetic nature. Sure her reputation has seen better days, but Gwen's always been a likable character and she's always given it her all when it really counted; and on top of that, she's just one heck of an amazing friend to have and one helluva competitor, so in spite of her unflattering portrayal in recent seasons Gwen is and will remain my absolute favorite character on Total Drama.

2) Dawn

What can I say that would do justice to the one girl on Total Drama who come closest to being an angel?

Seriously though, it really is hard to imagine not falling in love with Dawn. In spite of her somewhat odd nature, Dawn probably has the most heart of any gal I've seen on the show thus far. Always having the best interests of her friends and teammates in mind and showing a gentle hand to both man and nature, Dawn is a mysterious yet comforting presence on the series. Lord knows what magical abilities this young mystic harbors inside, and this all adds to the allure that surrounds Dawn's gentle soul. And on top of that, Dawn as we saw is more than capable of managing by herself in the heat of competition. By far the contestant who was the least deserving of the insult that was her early elimination as engineered by Scott, I think a majority of us fans can agree that we'd all love to see Dawn return once more so she can finally prove that she is fact, destined for greatness

3) Bridgette

A top favorite of mine since Day One, Bridgette has always brought a refreshing and soothing presence to the series. Very much like Dawn in many respects, Bridgette has always had the best interests of those around her at heart, and has always defended them in the face of adversity. A sorely underestimated competitor who's been given the shaft far too many times even when she still has so much to offer to the series, Bridgette is definitely a gal to have by your side in both the best of times and the worst of times. In spite of her occasional clumsiness, Bridgette is athletic, likable, focused, nurturing, and last but not least the absolute best kind of friend you could ever wish to have, and just as you've always had everyone else's back, I'll always have your back, Bridge.

4) Zoey

Many have called her a love her/hate her sort of character; many have called her one-dimensional, short-sighted, and even boring. Well to those of you who spent the early days of TDROTI taking pleasure in slamming poor Zoey........Kiss it, because she's #4 on my list!

Seriously though, Zoey is a girl who deserves much more credit than she for so long rarely received. Initially coming onto the show as awkward and naive with few whom she could call a really true friend due to living in a town where the wrong people ruled the turf, Zoey rapidly grew into a headstrong, resourceful, and bright young woman who in spite of all adversity and all the pain she had to endure eventually rose above the odds to become a master competitor who was more than capable of standing up for herself and her friends even when the situation seemed all but lost. A gal of great integrity and strength, who is a lot more than meets the eye, Zoey is a friend that I would follow to the very end.

I LOVE and ADORE Zoey.........And I don't care if that's okay (Or not) with everyone! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

5) Courtney

Yeah, in spite of her love her/hate her status, Courtney still to this day ranks very highly on my list. That's not to say she's a girl without flaws, in fact she's a girl of many flaws.....but heck, nobody's perfect, right? True, Courtney is at times feisty and even aggressive, but at times that's part of the reason I find her enjoyable. Courtney's a very headstrong and independent girl who when it really counts is a practical strategist and leader when the situation really calls for her to be so. Courtney's driven by a desire to be the best she can be, and while this can sometimes blind her better judgment she is still one of high ambition, which actually is an admirable trait. And Courtney has shown before she can be a loyal trustworthy companion, and when she is she can be a really great friend to have by your side It also helps that for a girl who dresses so modestly, she also happens to be one of the sexiest to assume the spotlight on the show So in my opinion, even with her obvious faults, there's still more than enough reason for me to continue loving Courtney.

6) Trent

Okay seriously, when are the fans gonna wake up and realize what we lost when they gave this smooth dude the boot?

Trent was and still is one of the most likable guys to strum his stuff on Total Drama. Whether it be on his guitar or during one of the many painful challenges he braved and survived, Trent's always had something to show for his many talents. Always smooth, always cool, and always confident, Trent really is the ideal guy with whom to hang. Always patient, always laid back and ready to indulge in the simple pleasures like stargazing, music, poetry, or just sitting on the dock enjoying a private conversation, it's no wonder he's such a hit with the ladies. And in spite of everything that eventually went down between them, Trent's affection for Gwen still provide some of the most heartwarming moments of the series.

As a Gwent fan I continue to hold onto the hope that Trent will return to the scene once more so he can revive the magic that once emanated between himself and Gwen.

And seriously, to the fans who continue to insist he's crazy, try watching the episodes that aired AFTER 3:10 to Crazytown. Quite frankly, I'm not so sure your claim holds up anymore. Long story short: BRING TRENT BACK.

7) Mike

Now this guy was a lot of fun to watch.

A many of many personalities (Literally), Mike was always unpredictable in his many escapades during the competition. Like so many in the lineup, he strived to fit in and to find peace with the many selves who made up his character. In spite of his obvious condition or perhaps in part because of it, Mike was an able and balanced player who's numerous skills proved lifesaving for his teammates. Plus, his big heart and optimistic personality is what eventually drew Zoey out of her shell and helped her to blossom into the headstrong girl she has become. Seriously, we could all take a lesson from the devotion displayed by Mike even as he was fighting his own inner demons.

8) Dakota

Boy, just when you thought the gals on this show couldn't get any hotter.

A surprisingly sympathetic character for someone inspired partially inspired by Paris Hilton, Dakota was a breath of fresh air to the series, with a subplot that was arguably the most engaging of the season. Although fully confident in her looks and sense of style, Dakota is not your stereotypical fashionista, instead striving for much more than just the glitz and glamour of the spotlight. Initially lacking in confidence in her ability to engage with people, Dakota nonetheless was surprisingly willing to prove she was much more than she seemed when she joined the cast of TDROTI. And after developing a profound sense of humility from working as an intern, Dakota developed a new lease on life and could now find companionship with those that the environment in which she grew up likely otherwise would have rejected. Even after her unfortunate mutation, Dakota has risen past her superficiality and has found both friendship and even love in ways she hadn't thought possible.

I think a great many of us were pleasantly surprised by how much Dakota developed as a character in this season, and I think I speak for most fans when I say that although her time as the Dakotazoid was pretty awesome, we'd all very much like to see her return to her true self sometime soon.

9) Geoff

Another truly underrated competitor, Geoff brought a lot of life and laughs to the set with his happy-go-lucky, party guy attitude. For Geoff, life was a party, and he always kept spirits high even when the going really got rough for his team. In a lot of ways, Geoff is what Owen should've been, a fun-loving guy who while always ready to party, also knew when it was time to put the pedal to the metal and give it all you got.

Sadly, since his departure from TDA and his relegation to co-host of the Aftermath show, the party's long over.

All I can say is......Come back, Geoff and Bridgette! Come back!

10) Brick

Another one of the many surprises that came out of TDROTI, Brick proved to be a surprisingly sympathetic and likable character despite his gruff-looking exterior. Ambitious in his pursuits, always looking out for his teammates, and always amusing with his soldier talk, Brick is a welcomed addition to the Total Drama lineup. One must wonder what this soldier would hold in store for us as soon as he graduates from fashion school..............Yeah, you heard me!

11) Izzy

These days it's hard to resist a character as happy-go-lucky, unpredictable, and even as crazy as the one-woman wonder that is Izzy. Never was it known exactly what she was up to or what she was thinking every time the camera focused on her. But one thing's for sure, Izzy brought a lot of excitement and laughs to the set of Total Drama, turning the competition into a three-ring circus act And the best part is, she always comes back for more.

12) Eva

Even now I fail to see why they keep wasting a character with the immense potential for gripping character development like Eva. Often given the shaft for her aggressive attitude and probably for reasons many of us can't fathom, Eva in spite of her lack of screentime is the Titan of Total Drama. Her strength and iron will to win go virtually unmatched, and she can intimidate even the most antagonistic of Total Drama's villainous lineup. And on top of that, she has proven through her friendships with characters like Noah and Izzy that she too is capable of getting along with people given the chance. If they'd just give her a chance to stage the comeback demanded by her sheer strength of will and character, Eva could totally own Total Drama.

13) Cameron

Remember how I used to say how dull and wimpy this kid was? Well those days are ancient history. Cameron was once again, another unexpected surprise from TDROTI. Grown and raised as an isolated bubble boy, Cameron somehow found the willpower to finally step out into the real world where all his smarts and incredible brainpower could finally be put to the test. On top of all of his incredible inventions and fast-growing courage which more than made up for his scrawny stature, Cameron was not only the brains of the competition but also one helluva friend to be had in the heat of battle.

14) Noah

It's really no mystery why Noah's become such a huge fan favorite. These days it's really hard to resist a guy who's so down to earth with his sarcastic wit, clever wisecracks, and practical wisdom of how things ought to get done. Although initially something of a smart aleck, Noah has since put that sharp tongue of his to good use, and is arguably the most in tune with reality of all the contestants. Invincible to the scheming of his many opponents and surprisingly helpful to his teammates, even those who annoy him to no end, Noah's got a lot more going for him than TDI had earlier implied and now every one of his wisecracks and quick jabs makes me laugh, and makes me laugh hard.

I'm with the fans, it's time for another run with Noah

15) Beth

I still fail to grasp why the fanbase continues to give Beth the shaft. Although she may not be the hottest or most clever of the contestants, Beth is still a genuinely likable personality who really tried hard to rise above her own limits so she could prove she was worthy of a show as challenging as Total Drama. She may not look like much at first, but on top of her readiness to make friends, Beth is always beaming with confidence and high spirits, and when it counts she can be a really resourceful contestant, particularly when her patience is tested too much. A true underdog in the race for the million, I always felt Beth was far more deserving of the first place prize in TDA, so I am not ashamed to say I still hold Beth's ending as the true canonical ending of Total Drama Action.

16) Tyler

It's good to see this guy win a lot more affection and acknowledgement from the fanbase as of late. He may be a no-skill jock, but Tyler is certainly a jock who has set himself apart from the stereotype he's assigned himself too. Having none of the stereotypically negative qualities that accompany the jocks on TV these days, Tyler is admittedly a buffoon at times due to his lack of coordination, but nonetheless is an honest player with an honest desire to try his hardest. And although it was an abysmal season, World Tour did at least succeed in proving that Tyler did in fact have something to offer to the Total Drama dynamic, rising above his own shortcomings with his sheer will to do better at what he's set his mind to. This makes his sudden elimination in the same season all the more insulting, as this hilarious and likable guy was sadly given the boot after a chance encounter with the worst romantic debacle to emerge on the series.

Right guy in the wrong place at the wrong time. And just when he was in his prime in the game and in the fanbase? Now that's just fucking cruel.

(NOTE: Do take note that even though here begins the lower tier of my lineup of Total Drama castmates, do bear in mind that many of these upcoming characters I have no hatred for, they're just not on my upper list of top favorites. I like a lot of the upcoming characters, so please don't take offense if they're your personal favorites who just happened to turn up a tad short on my list )

17) LeShawna

Personally, I fail to see how this character has been ruined or why everyone has seemingly forgotten the luscious, asskicking machine that is LeShawna. One of the show's strongest players since its early days, LeShawna was always down to earth, no-nonsense, and was always a slick player in dealing with her friends and foes alike. Not one to take any crap sitting down, LeShawna was a force to be reckoned with if you ever got on her bad side, and one helluva ally to have if you were on her good side While her glory days may seemingly be over for now, one absolutely should not forget what a powerful player LeShawna was for much of the series, showing great integrity amongst her friends and dishing out plenty of punishment if anyone dared to cross her. You go, Shawnie, baby!

18) Sam

He may not look like much at first, often having his eyes glued squarely on his Game Boy, but Sam is still a pretty cool dude to hang with when he's not always preoccupied with Mario and Zelda What he lacks in strength he often makes up for with determination, and even occasionally his video game wisdom can prove critical to winning the game at hand Perhaps his greatest achievement though was opening up Dakota's world to bigger and better things, his loyal and caring demeanor finally giving her the confidence needed to move past a life of superficiality and finding something so much more in the people around her. Dakota's in good hands with you, Sam.

19) DJ

Although he's really become something of a letdown in recent years due to the unwarranted exploitation of his somewhat cowardly nature, DJ is still a character I genuinely like and still have fond memories of from TDI. Truly the "Brickhouse with Heart", DJ was everything a guy should be: Strong, dependable, practical, calm and easygoing, and always sticking it out for himself and his friends, even when others did not. Sadly, DJ's character suffered as Fresh TV made something of a sick running gag out of his "softie" nature and translated it into outright cowardice, reducing him to a spineless quitter who while still devoted to his friends, seems to always run at even the smallest of threats.

Seriously, how do you take one of the show's most beloved characters and make him an absolute wuss? What about this is even remotely funny?

Oh well, while I can't place you in my Top Ten anymore DJ, rest assured I still think you're a good guy who hopefully will find his way once again.

20) Lindsay

Well I know a lot of Lindsay fans are probably gonna burn me at the stake for placing her rather low on the countdown

Seriously though, while I've always liked Lindsay, she sure does get a lot of attention on this show, perhaps more than she really needs. Although undeniably attractive and cute, Lindsay's dumb blonde act is one that's been seen many times before, and although many will disagree with me it has begun to wear thin. Still, while she's not exactly the most engaging character since ending her first alliance with Heather, Lindsay still delivers the goods when it counts. When she's not flaunting her slender self, she's still able to get in a few laughs with her endearing innocence and occasional moments of badassery. The day Lindsay told off Heather is still one of the show's finest and funniest moments Still though, I think it's fair to say Lindsay's had a long enough and successful enough run and that it's time for her to pass the reins on to somebody else on this show's extensive lineup.

Don't sue me, Lindsay fans!

21) Anne Maria

Although inspired by Snooki of Jersey Shore infamy and at times condescending to her teammates ( I feel for you, Zoey. ), Anne Maria is not the worst of the worst by any means. Feisty, undeniably attractive, and a competent player when motivated, Anne Maria was still one hot item on the set, and at times showed true concern for her fellow teammates. ( Probably much more than anyone on Jersey Shore ever did )

22) Cody

While he's not the ladykiller he thinks he is and at times can come off as.....well, awkward around certain people like Gwen, Cody is still a genuinely caring and funny character who still has his head in the game and usually has his heart in the right place. Perhaps one of these days he won't be quite the hopeless romantic he is today.

( Seriously though, how bad does your luck have to be to be stalked to the grave by the likes of Sierra? )

23) Heather

Although she was one the Alpha Bitch of Total Drama Island, Heather has since become a much more enjoyable and dare I say, likable persona since it became necessary for her to cooperate with her teammates. On the very rarest of occasions actually showing concerns for her teammates, Heather is not only likable nowadays, but she is still a brilliant strategist and a hardcore game changer

(But I think she should take a break from Season Five...... )

24) Silent "B"/Beverly

Unfortunately it's really hard to say much about a character who never has much to say.

Still, that said, this does not undermine the silent yet visible awesomeness of B. A master inventor on par with Cameron, and full of practical old world wisdom that can be delivered with little more than a grin or a wink, B may not be easy to hold a two-sided conversation with, but he certainly makes a good friend in the heat of competition.

25) Josh

Kind of hard to decide if you love or hate a guy who's hardly been given any screentime outside of the TDA special.

Still, I will give Josh this: He's not his backstabbing co-host Blaineley.

26) Katie

Never a particularly compelling character, not even in TDI, Katie was always just kind of there, sporting the "Nice Girl" label but not really making much more of a name for herself than that. Plus, her fashion sense is somewhat dated.

However, she is in fact a really nice girl, and definitely has a sexy side to her there. She did look badass in Dodgebrawl

27) Harold

First off, I know I have friends who are hardcore fans of Harold. That said, I apologize if you are slightly put off by his somewhat low ranking.

Still, I do very much enjoy Harold despite his ranking here. Always unjustifiably portrayed and treated as an underdog, Harold has always been one of the most unpredictably players on the show much like Cameron. Although fully embracing his nerdy archetype, he is still incredibly resourceful and his various teams all owe a lot of their surprise victories to him On top of that, when it really counts, he can be a friggin' badass. (Way to sucker punch Duncan, man! )

Harold would otherwise be higher on this list except for ONE thing: He rigged the votes and eliminated Courtney instead of Duncan.

Seriously, you could've eliminated your most hated enemy who tormented you to no end but instead sent his then-straightminded girlfriend and left her to feel nothing but anger and distrust towards others? Seriously Harold, not your brightest move.

28) Chef Hatchet

I'm sure he's a mixed bag among the fans, either you love this expert of cruel and unusual punishment or you can't stand him.

And yes, even though Chef has done some pretty despicable things on the show, including breaking Zoey's medallion, cooking food unfit for human consumption, and engaging in distasteful crossdressing, Chef still has his moments of sensitivity and badassery And his rivalries with campers like Izzy and Duncan are always a scream.

And hey, at least he's not Chris McLean! If only just barely.

29) Jo

Coming aboard as TDROTI's answer and virtual equivalent to Eva, Sue Sylvester's lookalike here had everything required to win the competition, and had an iron will to win matched only by Eva's or Courtney's. However, while Jo usually played fair and drilled herself relentlessly in doing her best, she also is unfortunately a frustratingly difficult person to get along with. As Mike put it best, her cutthroat attitude stinks!

Also of note, she's voiced by TD veteran writer Laurie Elliott. This I have no problem with, except that she's written some of the less savory episodes of the series.

30) Sadie

The Other Nice Girl of the bunch, Katie's pseudo-twin sister here was even less compelling than she was. While still a very nice girl who at time had her moments of adorable, Sadie is still unfortunately not a very hardcore player nor a very compelling character. Like Katie, she was just there, and her shared fashion sense works even less on her. Again Sadie's cute, but she's not much to talk about.

31) Justin

Sorry, no oohing and aahing for the eye candy here, mainly because one, I'm in this for the ladies and two, Justin holds the unfortunate distinction of being perhaps the most forgettable antagonist on the show. While the idea of using his good looks was a decent setup at first, this plot was quickly wasted and Justin became a whining pussy who just became too wrapped up in his looks to really elevate himself further in the game. On top of that, he had a major hand in the breakup of Gwen and Trent. Not cool man, NOT cool.

Though he's done okay with the Total Drama Boys.

32) Owen

Okay, here's where the really dislike sets in.

A grossly overweight fratboy who takes way too much pride in his ever-widening stomach capacity, Owen always seems entirely focused on food and farting and NEVER on the game taking place around him. Sure he was a more in-depth character in TDI I guess, but you can dump a Creator's Pet on the audience for so long before they tire of a guy who's only claim to fame is the number of fart, belching, nudity, and eating jokes he can get in the run of 22 minutes.

In short, to those of you watching at home, Owen is NOT FUNNY!

33) Ezekiel

How can one bring themselves to like a guy if the writers don't give you any reason to like him in the first place?

Holding the unfortunate distinction of being the first eliminated on Total Drama, Ezekiel was always ripe for the picking when it came to actual character development. Instead, the producers threw this opportunity out the window and instead made Zeke the subject of the show's worst and most unfunny running gag.

ZOMBIE ZEKE/FERAL ZEKE IS NOT FUCKING FUNNY!

34) Staci

Seriously, does anybody like this girl?

Well, it's no surprise that seemingly nobody does. Much like Ezekiel, Staci was a one-note character who was just there to be eliminated. And like him, she too was the center of another painfully unfunny running gag, namely her inability to stop lying about the "many" "unconventional" "exploits" of her family ancestry.

The only difference though is that she disappeared from the scene before our ears began bleeding.

And now this is where things get really bad......

35) Sierra

It's not everyday you find yourself stalked by a fan as obnoxious and overzealous as Sierra.

Okay, I understand that many people do in fact like Sierra, but to be honest I'm not one of them. She may be cute and she may be a dedicated fan of Total Drama, but she also NEVER shuts up. One of the new additions from TDWT, Sierra is loud, screechy, obsessive, possessive, spiteful, and above all, creepy. Really, I don't know what Cody did to deserve a rabid fangirl this obsessed with him, but it seriously could not have warranted this high-pitched, fast-talking torment breathing down his neck every time he either was tying his shoes, changing shirt, or just trying to have a moment's peace.

Plus, as I said, she can also be very spiteful. No seriously, what the hell was her deal with Gwen? I don't care what kind of head case you are, you don't antagonize a person who did absolutely nothing to provoke you.

Sorry Sierra, but you're just a representation of everything a fan, or even decent human beings in general should NOT be.

36) Chris McLean

Oy, really, what can I say about Chris that many of his haters haven't said already?

I could go on through a whole laundry list of things that Chris has done to make the lives of the campers a fucking nightmare. However simply put, as the man in charge on the set and the one who has perpetrated almost all that has taken place on stage from TDI to TDROTI, including the infamous love triangle debacle of TDWT simply for the pointless drama he takes such sadistic pleasure in, Chris McLean is a vile, scheming, egotistical dickbastard.

I certainly hope they're treating him well in quarantine on the radioactive remains of the island.

37) Mildred........Ah, I mean, Blaineley

The self-proclaimed would-have-been host of Total Drama, this vile harpy stormed onto the stage for no other purpose than to hog the cameras. And Blaineley succeeded in doing just that. An opportunistic fame hound, Blaineley kept the camera squarely on herself and did everything in her power to shift the focus away from the main characters and give poor Bridgette and Geoff nothing but unwarranted grief. How messed up in the head do you have to be to ship a young woman in a bag and ship her to frozen Siberia with minimal protection from the cold?

And to make matters worse, she was actually made a contestant.

Seriously people, keep focusing on the characters who actually do have a purpose in staying aboard for the ride.

38) Lightning

If you guys all thought Jar Jar Binks was a pointless addition to Star Wars: The Phantom Menance, well this jockass makes Jar Jar look almost legitimate in his role.

Pretty much the anti-DJ of the series and bred straight from the same, sad cliched jock stereotype, Lightning is easily the most pointless character in the entire franchise. With absolutely no noteworthy character development whatsoever, an unlikable air of self-righteousness, few if any real distinguishing traits of any kind, and stupidity that makes Lindsay look like Steven Hawking, Lightning was by far the most undeserving contestant to make the Final Two as he did in TDROTI. Stamped with "Early Elimination" right from the getco, somehow the writer saw fit to bring this bland, unsympathetic character all the way to the tail end of the season, dragging down what had otherwise been an enjoyable run.

Sorry, but the laughs I got out of this guy were too few to really acknowledge. I for one don't see how this guy can have any fans with his totally bland and undeveloped character. All I can say is, screw you Cartoon Network for letting him win in the American broadcast!

39) Scott

AKA, "The Dick", Scott may have served more of a purpose to the season than Lightning, but as the main villain he automatically is worse than Lightning, if only just barely.

Why is this? Well.....

A) He's a moron who's scheme didn't make a damn lick of sense, and......

B) HE GOT DAWN ELIMINATED!!!!!!

Need I say anymore?

40) Alejandro

He may still have a dedicated fanbase, but this is a guy I will never have any sympathy for. Not only was Al trouble from the very start, using his wits and his looks to sabotage as many players as he possibly could, but his list of victims included four of the finest women in the series: LeShawna, Gwen, Courtney, and Bridgette.

You do not eliminate the fantastic four like this without earning some well-deserved hate in this lineup.

Personally, I don't think getting locked up in a robot suit was at all excessive considering what Al has to answer for.

And last but not least, we come to the lowest of the low, the bastard child of the series, and the most unfathomable creature to ever grace the set of Total Drama............

41) Duncan

Yeah, you've all heard me go on and on about this guy, so I won't hound you with another monologue over just how much my hatred for this punk bastard has grown since his betrayal of TDWT.

Still, I must say that while I did in fact enjoy Duncan in TDI and even TDA, he's an asshole guys. Seriously, he's a straight-up asshole. Always picking fights, always tormenting vulnerable people like Harold just because he can, always sexist, always screwing with people's heads......he's just a complete jackass to everybody. On top of that, he's not even that good-looking! So how he has so many fans is also a mystery to me.

And of course, he stabbed Courtney in the back just so he could hook up with Gwen, a girl for whom he never held any romantic feelings for even at the beginning of TDWT, turning her into a liar and Courtney into a anger-driven, heartbroken beast, almost singlehandedly ruining Total Drama and completely destroying all point in watching World Tour.

For these reasons, and the fact that he has not answered for any of his crimes, Duncan is and will remain my lowest-ranked character in all of Total Drama.

Phew! Well, that took a long time to get through

So those are my Top 41 Total Drama characters. I hope you guys like this lineup and for those of you who don't, no offense intended so please don't sue me.

This meme was made by . Check out her other works if you folks get the chance.

I own none of these images or characters. Total Drama is the property of Fresh TV and Teletoon.

(BTW, do I write too much in my memes? Leave your opinions below if you think I monologue too much)

Description
Hey folks, how have you been?

Well, with another eternity comes another one of my Total Drama memes

Well, it was about time that I decide my rankings for all of the Total Drama characters of both the first and second generation casts, especially with speculation surrounding Season Five kicking into high gear. I remain a huge fan of the series and many of the characters who come with it, and in spite of all the bull us fans have to keep putting up with in following the series, there's no doubt that before it started giving us trouble it gave us so many unique characters to enjoy, or enjoy hating

So now I will rank 41 of the most prominent characters to star in the series. Thanks to this really great meme designed by my friend , I feel I can rate them fairly accurately, and now I can give you my quick opinion on all of these characters in one go.

NOTE: Even now I'm not sure if all of these rankings are entirely true to how I feel so the exact order in which they have been placed should probably not be too huge a concern for anyone. And to be fair there's more characters I like rather than dislike, so even if they rank lower than others, that doesn't necessarily reflect hate or even dislike for the lower-ranked ones.

Also, I know many fans here have either an avid love or an avid hate for the characters on this list, and I want to make clear that I don't want any angry comments regarding how I've elected to rank some of these characters. We all have our views and opinions, and this is just me offering my own. After all, we're all just fans.

Well that's enough of the jibjab, let's get to it.

1) Gwen

Even now and in spite of all that she's been through in the past few years, I still hold nothing but strong support and admiration for Gwen. Still one of the best of a long series of amazing Goth gals, Gwen still wins me over with her dark yet alluring sense of style, sharp wit, passion for art, and surprisingly energetic nature. Sure her reputation has seen better days, but Gwen's always been a likable character and she's always given it her all when it really counted; and on top of that, she's just one heck of an amazing friend to have and one helluva competitor, so in spite of her unflattering portrayal in recent seasons Gwen is and will remain my absolute favorite character on Total Drama.

2) Dawn

What can I say that would do justice to the one girl on Total Drama who come closest to being an angel?

Seriously though, it really is hard to imagine not falling in love with Dawn. In spite of her somewhat odd nature, Dawn probably has the most heart of any gal I've seen on the show thus far. Always having the best interests of her friends and teammates in mind and showing a gentle hand to both man and nature, Dawn is a mysterious yet comforting presence on the series. Lord knows what magical abilities this young mystic harbors inside, and this all adds to the allure that surrounds Dawn's gentle soul. And on top of that, Dawn as we saw is more than capable of managing by herself in the heat of competition. By far the contestant who was the least deserving of the insult that was her early elimination as engineered by Scott, I think a majority of us fans can agree that we'd all love to see Dawn return once more so she can finally prove that she is fact, destined for greatness

3) Bridgette

A top favorite of mine since Day One, Bridgette has always brought a refreshing and soothing presence to the series. Very much like Dawn in many respects, Bridgette has always had the best interests of those around her at heart, and has always defended them in the face of adversity. A sorely underestimated competitor who's been given the shaft far too many times even when she still has so much to offer to the series, Bridgette is definitely a gal to have by your side in both the best of times and the worst of times. In spite of her occasional clumsiness, Bridgette is athletic, likable, focused, nurturing, and last but not least the absolute best kind of friend you could ever wish to have, and just as you've always had everyone else's back, I'll always have your back, Bridge.

4) Zoey

Many have called her a love her/hate her sort of character; many have called her one-dimensional, short-sighted, and even boring. Well to those of you who spent the early days of TDROTI taking pleasure in slamming poor Zoey........Kiss it, because she's #4 on my list!

Seriously though, Zoey is a girl who deserves much more credit than she for so long rarely received. Initially coming onto the show as awkward and naive with few whom she could call a really true friend due to living in a town where the wrong people ruled the turf, Zoey rapidly grew into a headstrong, resourceful, and bright young woman who in spite of all adversity and all the pain she had to endure eventually rose above the odds to become a master competitor who was more than capable of standing up for herself and her friends even when the situation seemed all but lost. A gal of great integrity and strength, who is a lot more than meets the eye, Zoey is a friend that I would follow to the very end.

I LOVE and ADORE Zoey.........And I don't care if that's okay (Or not) with everyone! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

5) Courtney

Yeah, in spite of her love her/hate her status, Courtney still to this day ranks very highly on my list. That's not to say she's a girl without flaws, in fact she's a girl of many flaws.....but heck, nobody's perfect, right? True, Courtney is at times feisty and even aggressive, but at times that's part of the reason I find her enjoyable. Courtney's a very headstrong and independent girl who when it really counts is a practical strategist and leader when the situation really calls for her to be so. Courtney's driven by a desire to be the best she can be, and while this can sometimes blind her better judgment she is still one of high ambition, which actually is an admirable trait. And Courtney has shown before she can be a loyal trustworthy companion, and when she is she can be a really great friend to have by your side It also helps that for a girl who dresses so modestly, she also happens to be one of the sexiest to assume the spotlight on the show So in my opinion, even with her obvious faults, there's still more than enough reason for me to continue loving Courtney.

6) Trent

Okay seriously, when are the fans gonna wake up and realize what we lost when they gave this smooth dude the boot?

Trent was and still is one of the most likable guys to strum his stuff on Total Drama. Whether it be on his guitar or during one of the many painful challenges he braved and survived, Trent's always had something to show for his many talents. Always smooth, always cool, and always confident, Trent really is the ideal guy with whom to hang. Always patient, always laid back and ready to indulge in the simple pleasures like stargazing, music, poetry, or just sitting on the dock enjoying a private conversation, it's no wonder he's such a hit with the ladies. And in spite of everything that eventually went down between them, Trent's affection for Gwen still provide some of the most heartwarming moments of the series.

As a Gwent fan I continue to hold onto the hope that Trent will return to the scene once more so he can revive the magic that once emanated between himself and Gwen.

And seriously, to the fans who continue to insist he's crazy, try watching the episodes that aired AFTER 3:10 to Crazytown. Quite frankly, I'm not so sure your claim holds up anymore. Long story short: BRING TRENT BACK.

7) Mike

Now this guy was a lot of fun to watch.

A many of many personalities (Literally), Mike was always unpredictable in his many escapades during the competition. Like so many in the lineup, he strived to fit in and to find peace with the many selves who made up his character. In spite of his obvious condition or perhaps in part because of it, Mike was an able and balanced player who's numerous skills proved lifesaving for his teammates. Plus, his big heart and optimistic personality is what eventually drew Zoey out of her shell and helped her to blossom into the headstrong girl she has become. Seriously, we could all take a lesson from the devotion displayed by Mike even as he was fighting his own inner demons.

8) Dakota

Boy, just when you thought the gals on this show couldn't get any hotter.

A surprisingly sympathetic character for someone inspired partially inspired by Paris Hilton, Dakota was a breath of fresh air to the series, with a subplot that was arguably the most engaging of the season. Although fully confident in her looks and sense of style, Dakota is not your stereotypical fashionista, instead striving for much more than just the glitz and glamour of the spotlight. Initially lacking in confidence in her ability to engage with people, Dakota nonetheless was surprisingly willing to prove she was much more than she seemed when she joined the cast of TDROTI. And after developing a profound sense of humility from working as an intern, Dakota developed a new lease on life and could now find companionship with those that the environment in which she grew up likely otherwise would have rejected. Even after her unfortunate mutation, Dakota has risen past her superficiality and has found both friendship and even love in ways she hadn't thought possible.

I think a great many of us were pleasantly surprised by how much Dakota developed as a character in this season, and I think I speak for most fans when I say that although her time as the Dakotazoid was pretty awesome, we'd all very much like to see her return to her true self sometime soon.

9) Geoff

Another truly underrated competitor, Geoff brought a lot of life and laughs to the set with his happy-go-lucky, party guy attitude. For Geoff, life was a party, and he always kept spirits high even when the going really got rough for his team. In a lot of ways, Geoff is what Owen should've been, a fun-loving guy who while always ready to party, also knew when it was time to put the pedal to the metal and give it all you got.

Sadly, since his departure from TDA and his relegation to co-host of the Aftermath show, the party's long over.

All I can say is......Come back, Geoff and Bridgette! Come back!

10) Brick

Another one of the many surprises that came out of TDROTI, Brick proved to be a surprisingly sympathetic and likable character despite his gruff-looking exterior. Ambitious in his pursuits, always looking out for his teammates, and always amusing with his soldier talk, Brick is a welcomed addition to the Total Drama lineup. One must wonder what this soldier would hold in store for us as soon as he graduates from fashion school..............Yeah, you heard me!

11) Izzy

These days it's hard to resist a character as happy-go-lucky, unpredictable, and even as crazy as the one-woman wonder that is Izzy. Never was it known exactly what she was up to or what she was thinking every time the camera focused on her. But one thing's for sure, Izzy brought a lot of excitement and laughs to the set of Total Drama, turning the competition into a three-ring circus act And the best part is, she always comes back for more.

12) Eva

Even now I fail to see why they keep wasting a character with the immense potential for gripping character development like Eva. Often given the shaft for her aggressive attitude and probably for reasons many of us can't fathom, Eva in spite of her lack of screentime is the Titan of Total Drama. Her strength and iron will to win go virtually unmatched, and she can intimidate even the most antagonistic of Total Drama's villainous lineup. And on top of that, she has proven through her friendships with characters like Noah and Izzy that she too is capable of getting along with people given the chance. If they'd just give her a chance to stage the comeback demanded by her sheer strength of will and character, Eva could totally own Total Drama.

13) Cameron

Remember how I used to say how dull and wimpy this kid was? Well those days are ancient history. Cameron was once again, another unexpected surprise from TDROTI. Grown and raised as an isolated bubble boy, Cameron somehow found the willpower to finally step out into the real world where all his smarts and incredible brainpower could finally be put to the test. On top of all of his incredible inventions and fast-growing courage which more than made up for his scrawny stature, Cameron was not only the brains of the competition but also one helluva friend to be had in the heat of battle.

14) Noah

It's really no mystery why Noah's become such a huge fan favorite. These days it's really hard to resist a guy who's so down to earth with his sarcastic wit, clever wisecracks, and practical wisdom of how things ought to get done. Although initially something of a smart aleck, Noah has since put that sharp tongue of his to good use, and is arguably the most in tune with reality of all the contestants. Invincible to the scheming of his many opponents and surprisingly helpful to his teammates, even those who annoy him to no end, Noah's got a lot more going for him than TDI had earlier implied and now every one of his wisecracks and quick jabs makes me laugh, and makes me laugh hard.

I'm with the fans, it's time for another run with Noah

15) Beth

I still fail to grasp why the fanbase continues to give Beth the shaft. Although she may not be the hottest or most clever of the contestants, Beth is still a genuinely likable personality who really tried hard to rise above her own limits so she could prove she was worthy of a show as challenging as Total Drama. She may not look like much at first, but on top of her readiness to make friends, Beth is always beaming with confidence and high spirits, and when it counts she can be a really resourceful contestant, particularly when her patience is tested too much. A true underdog in the race for the million, I always felt Beth was far more deserving of the first place prize in TDA, so I am not ashamed to say I still hold Beth's ending as the true canonical ending of Total Drama Action.

16) Tyler

It's good to see this guy win a lot more affection and acknowledgement from the fanbase as of late. He may be a no-skill jock, but Tyler is certainly a jock who has set himself apart from the stereotype he's assigned himself too. Having none of the stereotypically negative qualities that accompany the jocks on TV these days, Tyler is admittedly a buffoon at times due to his lack of coordination, but nonetheless is an honest player with an honest desire to try his hardest. And although it was an abysmal season, World Tour did at least succeed in proving that Tyler did in fact have something to offer to the Total Drama dynamic, rising above his own shortcomings with his sheer will to do better at what he's set his mind to. This makes his sudden elimination in the same season all the more insulting, as this hilarious and likable guy was sadly given the boot after a chance encounter with the worst romantic debacle to emerge on the series.

Right guy in the wrong place at the wrong time. And just when he was in his prime in the game and in the fanbase? Now that's just fucking cruel.

(NOTE: Do take note that even though here begins the lower tier of my lineup of Total Drama castmates, do bear in mind that many of these upcoming characters I have no hatred for, they're just not on my upper list of top favorites. I like a lot of the upcoming characters, so please don't take offense if they're your personal favorites who just happened to turn up a tad short on my list )

17) LeShawna

Personally, I fail to see how this character has been ruined or why everyone has seemingly forgotten the luscious, asskicking machine that is LeShawna. One of the show's strongest players since its early days, LeShawna was always down to earth, no-nonsense, and was always a slick player in dealing with her friends and foes alike. Not one to take any crap sitting down, LeShawna was a force to be reckoned with if you ever got on her bad side, and one helluva ally to have if you were on her good side While her glory days may seemingly be over for now, one absolutely should not forget what a powerful player LeShawna was for much of the series, showing great integrity amongst her friends and dishing out plenty of punishment if anyone dared to cross her. You go, Shawnie, baby!

18) Sam

He may not look like much at first, often having his eyes glued squarely on his Game Boy, but Sam is still a pretty cool dude to hang with when he's not always preoccupied with Mario and Zelda What he lacks in strength he often makes up for with determination, and even occasionally his video game wisdom can prove critical to winning the game at hand Perhaps his greatest achievement though was opening up Dakota's world to bigger and better things, his loyal and caring demeanor finally giving her the confidence needed to move past a life of superficiality and finding something so much more in the people around her. Dakota's in good hands with you, Sam.

19) DJ

Although he's really become something of a letdown in recent years due to the unwarranted exploitation of his somewhat cowardly nature, DJ is still a character I genuinely like and still have fond memories of from TDI. Truly the "Brickhouse with Heart", DJ was everything a guy should be: Strong, dependable, practical, calm and easygoing, and always sticking it out for himself and his friends, even when others did not. Sadly, DJ's character suffered as Fresh TV made something of a sick running gag out of his "softie" nature and translated it into outright cowardice, reducing him to a spineless quitter who while still devoted to his friends, seems to always run at even the smallest of threats.

Seriously, how do you take one of the show's most beloved characters and make him an absolute wuss? What about this is even remotely funny?

Oh well, while I can't place you in my Top Ten anymore DJ, rest assured I still think you're a good guy who hopefully will find his way once again.

20) Lindsay

Well I know a lot of Lindsay fans are probably gonna burn me at the stake for placing her rather low on the countdown

Seriously though, while I've always liked Lindsay, she sure does get a lot of attention on this show, perhaps more than she really needs. Although undeniably attractive and cute, Lindsay's dumb blonde act is one that's been seen many times before, and although many will disagree with me it has begun to wear thin. Still, while she's not exactly the most engaging character since ending her first alliance with Heather, Lindsay still delivers the goods when it counts. When she's not flaunting her slender self, she's still able to get in a few laughs with her endearing innocence and occasional moments of badassery. The day Lindsay told off Heather is still one of the show's finest and funniest moments Still though, I think it's fair to say Lindsay's had a long enough and successful enough run and that it's time for her to pass the reins on to somebody else on this show's extensive lineup.

Don't sue me, Lindsay fans!

21) Anne Maria

Although inspired by Snooki of Jersey Shore infamy and at times condescending to her teammates ( I feel for you, Zoey. ), Anne Maria is not the worst of the worst by any means. Feisty, undeniably attractive, and a competent player when motivated, Anne Maria was still one hot item on the set, and at times showed true concern for her fellow teammates. ( Probably much more than anyone on Jersey Shore ever did )

22) Cody

While he's not the ladykiller he thinks he is and at times can come off as.....well, awkward around certain people like Gwen, Cody is still a genuinely caring and funny character who still has his head in the game and usually has his heart in the right place. Perhaps one of these days he won't be quite the hopeless romantic he is today.

( Seriously though, how bad does your luck have to be to be stalked to the grave by the likes of Sierra? )

23) Heather

Although she was one the Alpha Bitch of Total Drama Island, Heather has since become a much more enjoyable and dare I say, likable persona since it became necessary for her to cooperate with her teammates. On the very rarest of occasions actually showing concerns for her teammates, Heather is not only likable nowadays, but she is still a brilliant strategist and a hardcore game changer

(But I think she should take a break from Season Five...... )

24) Silent "B"/Beverly

Unfortunately it's really hard to say much about a character who never has much to say.

Still, that said, this does not undermine the silent yet visible awesomeness of B. A master inventor on par with Cameron, and full of practical old world wisdom that can be delivered with little more than a grin or a wink, B may not be easy to hold a two-sided conversation with, but he certainly makes a good friend in the heat of competition.

25) Josh

Kind of hard to decide if you love or hate a guy who's hardly been given any screentime outside of the TDA special.

Still, I will give Josh this: He's not his backstabbing co-host Blaineley.

26) Katie

Never a particularly compelling character, not even in TDI, Katie was always just kind of there, sporting the "Nice Girl" label but not really making much more of a name for herself than that. Plus, her fashion sense is somewhat dated.

However, she is in fact a really nice girl, and definitely has a sexy side to her there. She did look badass in Dodgebrawl

27) Harold

First off, I know I have friends who are hardcore fans of Harold. That said, I apologize if you are slightly put off by his somewhat low ranking.

Still, I do very much enjoy Harold despite his ranking here. Always unjustifiably portrayed and treated as an underdog, Harold has always been one of the most unpredictably players on the show much like Cameron. Although fully embracing his nerdy archetype, he is still incredibly resourceful and his various teams all owe a lot of their surprise victories to him On top of that, when it really counts, he can be a friggin' badass. (Way to sucker punch Duncan, man! )

Harold would otherwise be higher on this list except for ONE thing: He rigged the votes and eliminated Courtney instead of Duncan.

Seriously, you could've eliminated your most hated enemy who tormented you to no end but instead sent his then-straightminded girlfriend and left her to feel nothing but anger and distrust towards others? Seriously Harold, not your brightest move.

28) Chef Hatchet

I'm sure he's a mixed bag among the fans, either you love this expert of cruel and unusual punishment or you can't stand him.

And yes, even though Chef has done some pretty despicable things on the show, including breaking Zoey's medallion, cooking food unfit for human consumption, and engaging in distasteful crossdressing, Chef still has his moments of sensitivity and badassery And his rivalries with campers like Izzy and Duncan are always a scream.

And hey, at least he's not Chris McLean! If only just barely.

29) Jo

Coming aboard as TDROTI's answer and virtual equivalent to Eva, Sue Sylvester's lookalike here had everything required to win the competition, and had an iron will to win matched only by Eva's or Courtney's. However, while Jo usually played fair and drilled herself relentlessly in doing her best, she also is unfortunately a frustratingly difficult person to get along with. As Mike put it best, her cutthroat attitude stinks!

Also of note, she's voiced by TD veteran writer Laurie Elliott. This I have no problem with, except that she's written some of the less savory episodes of the series.

30) Sadie

The Other Nice Girl of the bunch, Katie's pseudo-twin sister here was even less compelling than she was. While still a very nice girl who at time had her moments of adorable, Sadie is still unfortunately not a very hardcore player nor a very compelling character. Like Katie, she was just there, and her shared fashion sense works even less on her. Again Sadie's cute, but she's not much to talk about.

31) Justin

Sorry, no oohing and aahing for the eye candy here, mainly because one, I'm in this for the ladies and two, Justin holds the unfortunate distinction of being perhaps the most forgettable antagonist on the show. While the idea of using his good looks was a decent setup at first, this plot was quickly wasted and Justin became a whining pussy who just became too wrapped up in his looks to really elevate himself further in the game. On top of that, he had a major hand in the breakup of Gwen and Trent. Not cool man, NOT cool.

Though he's done okay with the Total Drama Boys.

32) Owen

Okay, here's where the really dislike sets in.

A grossly overweight fratboy who takes way too much pride in his ever-widening stomach capacity, Owen always seems entirely focused on food and farting and NEVER on the game taking place around him. Sure he was a more in-depth character in TDI I guess, but you can dump a Creator's Pet on the audience for so long before they tire of a guy who's only claim to fame is the number of fart, belching, nudity, and eating jokes he can get in the run of 22 minutes.

In short, to those of you watching at home, Owen is NOT FUNNY!

33) Ezekiel

How can one bring themselves to like a guy if the writers don't give you any reason to like him in the first place?

Holding the unfortunate distinction of being the first eliminated on Total Drama, Ezekiel was always ripe for the picking when it came to actual character development. Instead, the producers threw this opportunity out the window and instead made Zeke the subject of the show's worst and most unfunny running gag.

ZOMBIE ZEKE/FERAL ZEKE IS NOT FUCKING FUNNY!

34) Staci

Seriously, does anybody like this girl?

Well, it's no surprise that seemingly nobody does. Much like Ezekiel, Staci was a one-note character who was just there to be eliminated. And like him, she too was the center of another painfully unfunny running gag, namely her inability to stop lying about the "many" "unconventional" "exploits" of her family ancestry.

The only difference though is that she disappeared from the scene before our ears began bleeding.

And now this is where things get really bad......

35) Sierra

It's not everyday you find yourself stalked by a fan as obnoxious and overzealous as Sierra.

Okay, I understand that many people do in fact like Sierra, but to be honest I'm not one of them. She may be cute and she may be a dedicated fan of Total Drama, but she also NEVER shuts up. One of the new additions from TDWT, Sierra is loud, screechy, obsessive, possessive, spiteful, and above all, creepy. Really, I don't know what Cody did to deserve a rabid fangirl this obsessed with him, but it seriously could not have warranted this high-pitched, fast-talking torment breathing down his neck every time he either was tying his shoes, changing shirt, or just trying to have a moment's peace.

Plus, as I said, she can also be very spiteful. No seriously, what the hell was her deal with Gwen? I don't care what kind of head case you are, you don't antagonize a person who did absolutely nothing to provoke you.

Sorry Sierra, but you're just a representation of everything a fan, or even decent human beings in general should NOT be.

36) Chris McLean

Oy, really, what can I say about Chris that many of his haters haven't said already?

I could go on through a whole laundry list of things that Chris has done to make the lives of the campers a fucking nightmare. However simply put, as the man in charge on the set and the one who has perpetrated almost all that has taken place on stage from TDI to TDROTI, including the infamous love triangle debacle of TDWT simply for the pointless drama he takes such sadistic pleasure in, Chris McLean is a vile, scheming, egotistical dickbastard.

I certainly hope they're treating him well in quarantine on the radioactive remains of the island.

37) Mildred........Ah, I mean, Blaineley

The self-proclaimed would-have-been host of Total Drama, this vile harpy stormed onto the stage for no other purpose than to hog the cameras. And Blaineley succeeded in doing just that. An opportunistic fame hound, Blaineley kept the camera squarely on herself and did everything in her power to shift the focus away from the main characters and give poor Bridgette and Geoff nothing but unwarranted grief. How messed up in the head do you have to be to ship a young woman in a bag and ship her to frozen Siberia with minimal protection from the cold?

And to make matters worse, she was actually made a contestant.

Seriously people, keep focusing on the characters who actually do have a purpose in staying aboard for the ride.

38) Lightning

If you guys all thought Jar Jar Binks was a pointless addition to Star Wars: The Phantom Menance, well this jockass makes Jar Jar look almost legitimate in his role.

Pretty much the anti-DJ of the series and bred straight from the same, sad cliched jock stereotype, Lightning is easily the most pointless character in the entire franchise. With absolutely no noteworthy character development whatsoever, an unlikable air of self-righteousness, few if any real distinguishing traits of any kind, and stupidity that makes Lindsay look like Steven Hawking, Lightning was by far the most undeserving contestant to make the Final Two as he did in TDROTI. Stamped with "Early Elimination" right from the getco, somehow the writer saw fit to bring this bland, unsympathetic character all the way to the tail end of the season, dragging down what had otherwise been an enjoyable run.

Sorry, but the laughs I got out of this guy were too few to really acknowledge. I for one don't see how this guy can have any fans with his totally bland and undeveloped character. All I can say is, screw you Cartoon Network for letting him win in the American broadcast!

39) Scott

AKA, "The Dick", Scott may have served more of a purpose to the season than Lightning, but as the main villain he automatically is worse than Lightning, if only just barely.

Why is this? Well.....

A) He's a moron who's scheme didn't make a damn lick of sense, and......

B) HE GOT DAWN ELIMINATED!!!!!!

Need I say anymore?

40) Alejandro

He may still have a dedicated fanbase, but this is a guy I will never have any sympathy for. Not only was Al trouble from the very start, using his wits and his looks to sabotage as many players as he possibly could, but his list of victims included four of the finest women in the series: LeShawna, Gwen, Courtney, and Bridgette.

You do not eliminate the fantastic four like this without earning some well-deserved hate in this lineup.

Personally, I don't think getting locked up in a robot suit was at all excessive considering what Al has to answer for.

And last but not least, we come to the lowest of the low, the bastard child of the series, and the most unfathomable creature to ever grace the set of Total Drama............

41) Duncan

Yeah, you've all heard me go on and on about this guy, so I won't hound you with another monologue over just how much my hatred for this punk bastard has grown since his betrayal of TDWT.

Still, I must say that while I did in fact enjoy Duncan in TDI and even TDA, he's an asshole guys. Seriously, he's a straight-up asshole. Always picking fights, always tormenting vulnerable people like Harold just because he can, always sexist, always screwing with people's heads......he's just a complete jackass to everybody. On top of that, he's not even that good-looking! So how he has so many fans is also a mystery to me.

And of course, he stabbed Courtney in the back just so he could hook up with Gwen, a girl for whom he never held any romantic feelings for even at the beginning of TDWT, turning her into a liar and Courtney into a anger-driven, heartbroken beast, almost singlehandedly ruining Total Drama and completely destroying all point in watching World Tour.

For these reasons, and the fact that he has not answered for any of his crimes, Duncan is and will remain my lowest-ranked character in all of Total Drama.

Phew! Well, that took a long time to get through

So those are my Top 41 Total Drama characters. I hope you guys like this lineup and for those of you who don't, no offense intended so please don't sue me.
