Total Drama Seasons
The Total Drama series has six exciting seasons. Each season brings new challenges and contestants. The dates below show when they first aired in the United States.
Total Drama Island
Total Drama Island is the very first season. It started on June 12, 2008. The show takes place at Camp Wawanakwa. This is a made-up island in Muskoka, Ontario. The host, Chris McLean, welcomes twenty-two contestants. They compete in challenges based on a summer camp theme.
The goal is to be the last one standing. Contestants face tough challenges, sometimes like those on Fear Factor or Survivor. The winner gets C$100,000 and becomes famous. If you lose, you leave on the "Boat of Losers" from the "Dock of Shame."
Total Drama Action
Total Drama Action is the second season. It premiered on June 11, 2009. This season is a sequel to Total Drama Island. Fourteen contestants from the first season return to compete. Courtney joins later after a legal issue.
The new location is an old film lot in Toronto, Ontario. Challenges are now based on different movie genres. The grand prize is C$1,000,000. Some original contestants did not return to compete. However, they appeared in "aftermath specials." These extra shows were hosted by Bridgette and Geoff. Losers take the "Walk of Shame" on a red carpet. Then they ride away in the "Lame-o-sine."
Total Drama World Tour
Total Drama World Tour is the third season. It started on June 28, 2010. Seventeen contestants travel around the world. They compete in challenges based on the cultures of the places they visit. A new rule is that contestants must sing songs. If they don't, Chris could eliminate them. This rule was not always strictly followed.
Many original characters return, along with new ones like Alejandro and Sierra. Blaineley also joins later in the season. The prize is C$1,000,000. Eliminated contestants jump off the "Drop of Shame."
Total Drama Revenge of the Island
Total Drama Revenge of the Island is the fourth season. It premiered on June 5, 2012. This season returns to Camp Wawanakwa. However, it features a brand new group of thirteen contestants. Some original characters make short appearances.
The island was used as a waste dump. This means it became radioactive. So, the season's theme is all about radiation and toxic waste. This season has only 14 episodes. That is half the length of a regular season. The cash prize is C$1,000,000. Contestants are eliminated by the "Hurl of Shame."
Total Drama All-Stars and Pahkitew Island
Total Drama All-Stars and Pahkitew Island is the fifth season. It premiered on September 10, 2013. This season is 26 episodes long.
Total Drama All-Stars
Total Drama All-Stars brings back fourteen contestants. These are popular characters from the past two seasons. They compete in "Heroes vs. Villains" challenges. Heroes team up against villains. Eliminated contestants take the "Flush of Shame." The winner gets C$1,000,000.
Total Drama Pahkitew Island
Total Drama Pahkitew Island takes place in a new spot. This is an island called Camp Pahkitew in Western Canada. A new group of fourteen contestants competes here. The island has some similarities to Camp Wawanakwa. However, Pahkitew Island is much bigger. Eliminations happen via the "Cannon of Shame." This season also offers a C$1,000,000 prize.
Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race
Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race is the sixth season. It premiered on September 7, 2015. This season has a new host named Don. Eighteen teams of two people compete. They travel around the world. The goal is to reach the "Chill Zone" and win C$1,000,000.
