Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race (also known as Total Drama: Ridonculous Race or simply The Ridonculous Race) is a Canadian animated reality television series which lampoons the conventions commonly found in reality television. The show is a spin-off of the original Total Drama series created in 2007 and the second series created as part of the overall franchise. The series is created by Fresh TV Inc. and distributed by Cake Entertainment. The series first aired in the United States on Cartoon Network on September 7, 2015, while in Canada, the series premiered on the Canadian version of Cartoon Network on January 4, 2016. It also aired on ABC3 in Australia, starting December 12, 2015. Like the original series, this series consists of 26 episodes per season.
Plot
Racers, divided into teams of two, visit a different country or location in every episode and perform in "legs". Teams must race to the "Chill Zone", the finish line for each leg taking on the form of a gold "Carpet of Completion". The first team to arrive there have the advantage of starting early, while the team finishing last may face elimination. In each of the 26 episodes, each team is required to press a button on any "Don-box" they meet to receive clues that let them decide which challenge they will have to complete.
Each challenge contains a task that teams must complete to advance throughout the leg. Challenges come in four different types: "All-In", which has both members of each team complete a task together; "Botch-or-Watch", which requires one member of each team, usually the team member who did not take on a prior challenge's component, to perform a task; "Either-or", in which teams are given a choice between two different tasks that have to be completed in the same manner as "All-In"; and "Superteam", in which multiple teams complete together as a team to finish a task.
However, at some point in the game, if either member of a team doesn't follow the specific directions of the challenge, the team themselves will receive a time penalty once they reach a "Chill Zone", during which they are not allowed to step on the carpet.

The final four teams now travel to the Bahamas where they first must find a secret map that leads to an underwater treasure. Josee's claustrophobia makes her run out of oxygen really fast, forcing MacArthur to reluctantly rescue her. Meanwhile, the Sisters, Emma and Kitty, are delayed when Kitty gets stuck in a rock. The returning team, the Surfer Dudes, come in first. Once the rest of the teams escape, it's a close race to the finish. In the end, Emma and Kitty end up coming in last, so they are the last team eliminated from the race. The final three teams are being headed for the finale in New York City.

26 | "A Million Ways to Lose a Million Dollars" | Terry McGurrin | February 15, 2016 | October 9, 2015 | 726 | 1.14 |
The final three teams are now in New York City and are getting ready for the finale. Their first challenge is to go to the Empire State Building and climb up all the way to the top in order to grab a case and then take the case to Central Park. The Surfer Dudes are forced to take the subway after their taxi was sabotaged by the Ice Dancers' taxi, and end up in a huge lead, so they reach Central Park first with the case. The Police Cadets reach the Chill Zone first by a few seconds, while the Ice Dancers are finally eliminated from the race. The final challenge is to take the case to the lake and then try to figure out the combination that is being written on one of several buoys, and then open the case that will reveal a map that leads to the finish line. The Surfers are delayed due to a misunderstanding, and both teams search at the same time. The Cadets are the first to open up their briefcase, but MacArthur accidentally puts a hole in their boat, forcing her to row as fast as she can to shore, tiring her out. This episode has two different endings:
After reminiscing about how great the race was, MacArthur tells Brody to keep in touch. Subsequently, the last scene of the season is edited to depict the Surfers holding the million dollar prize, while the Cadets are standing out with the rest of the teams in the peanut gallery. |
