for Total Drama Retrospective Interviews: A decade-ish later

Ok, it was sad, I enjoy the interviews, but I must say Owen let me a bitter aftertaste.

After all these years, he lost everything, no friends, no girlfriend, no job. It felt a little unfair to one of the fan favorites and one of the kinder contestants in the season.

Of course, the highlights were Izzy and Noah interview, especially because both are done with pink-tinted glasses. We already heard both Izzy and Noah’s opinions about Owen, and it was not what the big guy expected.

Also, there were many surprises, like Trent helping him after being evicted, his friendship with Tyler and Justin. I especially enjoyed Justin because he really talks about his bisexuality in a natural way, without labels.

And the last part was awesome, he didn’t really learn anything from the show, but that is also cool. It’s a way to realize Owen is the same after all these years.

I love the chapter, only would wish a better ending for Owen, next time is a short one, Sadie, I wonder how different it will be from Katie’s interview.

Nice one, The first winner (ok debatable, let’s say one of them). I think Owen was a really nice interview.

I like a lot his attitude, he is happy, positive, don’t accept all his bisexual relationship, but don’t hide them either, I think his interview is quite entertaining.

My favorite was Alejandro scene, in which he authentically seems hurt, Duncan, in which it makes a lot of sense, Gwen, in which his relationship is cool even if they aren’t close friends. Geoff, I found he wasn’t a friend of him in the show but later very clever. Finally, Harold part explains Owen part on the Geek’s interview.

Maybe the only weak one was Eva section. After all was said in both Izzy and Eva interviews, I expect something more, specially after she beat him both in WT and in the yatch, but he was quite meek in his response.

The second part one will be a really good one, We still have Justin, Noah and Izzy, so I expect a lot of drama. Good job.

Ok, this surprised me. I was sure Noah would take a double chapter, but honestly, it was unnecessary to write a second part , he basically tells everything we need to know.

Noah was in his element, he had some awesome scenes, like talking about Alejandro, about Cody, and about Sierra. We knew there was some tension and hate, but ufff, this surpassed all my expectations. I will love to read Sierra chapter.

But some interactions were unexpected, his bad relationship with Harold was natural and nice to read, his fall with Eva and of course his hate/hate relationship with Izzy. Noah is harsh and he doesn’t seem to regret burning any of those bridges, and that is really on character with him.

And my favorite was Owen’s question, I was sure he was still on good terms with the big guy, but it doesn’t seem to be the case. This will be Owen’s interview more exciting.

Really good one, I love he is still with Ema, and you created a great expectation toward Owen’s interview. I’m curious what will happen.

Ok, wow, I really liked the second part of the interview a lot more than the first.

Probably one thing I enjoy about Linds’s interview is that it is dramatic but not as overdramatic as Gwen. She is dumb but not an idiot, and also she spills a lot of good tea. (love she hooked with Trent)

Her bonding with the early boots of AS especially Sam was a surprise. Also, I love the idea of Tyler and Lightning being friends. Also LeShawana section was less salty and aggressive than I expected, which was a nice, compared with other contestants whose grudges where eternal.

And Tyler’s section, I love the mix of love and problems they had during all the stages, including their parents and their secret marriage. It was a surprise but also explain why they talked so ambiguous about their relationship.

And the end was sad, I love she talking about empowering, her graduating from college, and her business, but the pregnancy part was heartbreaking. Really nice work with this story, This one is definitely one my favorites interviews.

Okay Lindsay, the 5th character that took part in 4 seasons of Total Drama, so I expected her interview to be a long one and a good one.

I loved she arrived late, it was sooo Lindsay and that thanks to that the interview started on the wrong foot. Even then, I think she had some good answers.

Of course, Heather section was the best of all, Also it surprised me that she remembered Duncan and Gwen’s names but not Heather’s. Talking about them Duncan section was really funny, especially the joke about his legs.

Other ones I enjoy were Courtney, which was not a surprise she resented the Latin girl (or Asian) and Geoff And Bridge, which continue with the joke the surfers sleep with half of the cast.

Of the rest Beth section, even if passionate didn’t have any surprise, but Harold section was nice, I really like how he supported her in all the LeShawana/Tyler incidents, and this supports what Harold told before.

Of the next one I’m looking for both LeShawna and Tyler section, because I’m not sure Tyler and her are still dating or not, but I will find out in the next one. (I think she is dating him, but will not surprise me if she isn’t)

Ok the second part of the LeShawna interviewm not bad, I enjoy more the first part but this one had a lot of tea.

I liked a lot Justin scene and Tyler scene, I mean LeShawana don’t lie, but is not honest either, and she shows that even if Harold was in the wrong and they weren’t technically dating, she wasn’t honest either.

On the other hand he opinion on Lindsay was not as harsh as I expected. And with Trent on the other hand she was much harsher than I thought, that LeShawan is honest. But she being friends with anne Maria it’s so great that I can’t say anything.

And of course the main part was her part talking about Harold, honeslty I enjoy a lot the interpretation of her relatinship and the problem of a mixed racial couple, which is something many authors chose to ignore. Funny enough she didn’t talk a lot about the wedding, which I though would be the most important part of the interview.

Weirdly enough my favorite part was the ending, because Josh is right, she is really uptight during all the interview, and as always I didn’t notice Josh was so upset about it until the end.

Really nice one, thanks as always.

Ok, we have another Heavyweight here, LeShawana (ok, maybe it was an unfortunate wording). I love her attitude in general and how much tea she had on everyone, including Zeke, but let’s go into it.

LeShawna enters the studio and owns it. I love how she just comes, greets everyone and dominates the conversation, put the limits, and of course, warrants there are no racist comments. Very LeShawna like.

Also, in clear contrast with Gwen, she accepts many mistakes she made among the seasons, befriending Heather, falling for Alejandro. The only one I think she will avoid is getting with Tyler when he was dating Lindsay, who is in the next chapter.

Also, she is playing the racial card to condemn Heather and Alejandro. I’m not sure if it’s true or LeShawna is only playing the audience with the classic “They are racist because I’m black,” but I can believe any of those 2 narratives.

And also, I laugh a lot every time she mentioned Duncan, she really hates him. In some occasions, I think she hates him more than Heather. The way she gloats in taking Trent to Gwen house when she was dating Duncan it’s so funny and so LeShawana, and she repeated it many times. I love her.

And next time with Lindsay section, it will be a bloodbath. I wonder what will happen.

Ok, Katie chapter is here. Honestly, I was surprised because even if it was short, you write a lot. By the way, for one character who could talk about Ezekiel and you skip it, poor prairie boy ;). But let’s talk about the episode.

The introduction of the episode was wonderful. I love Josh’s petty attitude, and Katie’s reaction was so mature that I just loved it. Also it was a great way to close the interview. I’m sure Joshuah wouldn’t badmouth an interviewee again (at least a minute before the interview)

And the structure per see was good, Katie relationships were basically because of the aftermaths (like Eva, Lindsay, or Bridgette). The drama brothers of Sadie (she even says she and Courtney were not on bad terms but she hated Sadie’s guts)

Also, Gwen section is quite interesting because it contrasts with what the goth tells us, but Katie is not as emotional in her tale as Gwen, so I somehow believe her more. But this is what I love about this format. The interviewee is unreliable because they are telling their version.

But my favorite detail was her relationship with Sadie. It’s so rare to see a version of them in the future in which they are still BFFFL (Oh the irony), So it was something that made me smile. I think the time they were apart helped them a lot.

Now I’m really curious about Sadie’s interview because it has to be similar ti this one but different at the same time. But before that, we have some Heavyweights, and LeShawna is the next one. I wonder what she will tell us.

And we have Justin’s interview, it was nice, and for a character who had so few cameras, it had some great movements.

First things first, I loved the atmosphere. It was really different compared with Alejandro’s interview. Justin showed more interest, and also Josh seemed happier to interview the eye candy.

Then the interview developed more or less like expected, a lot to say of Alejandro, Beth, and his bandmates, and few things to add about some characters like Bridge and DJ. I was surprised he didn’t focus too much on Duncan. he says worse things about Heather or Courtney.

But my favorite parts were Izzy and Owen’s scene-, Izzy showed how bitter and how different their versions are. And Owen was surprising. The way he talks about their relationship and their encounters without making excuses felt really natural with a guy like Justin. He is not embarrassed by himself or his decisions. Kudos for that

All in all, Justin was a really nice read, and I enjoy his antics. I wonder how many of the remaining contestants will have such a nice interview

And the second part is out, Izzy was really the big surprise of the last interviews. Both of her episodes were a mix of comedy and drama and told us a lot of characters that still have to do their interview.

Probably the format of unreliable narrator benefits more a character like Izzy than others. For example, you know Gwen or Geoff lied to safe face, but Izzy didn’t seem to lie. It was just her bizarre and unique perception of reality.

From the interview, my favorite was Owen section. There you can see she really cared about him and how the relationship just didn’t work, I wonder what will be Owen version of all this, especially because he goes after Noah.

Talking of Noah his section was also great because the most common approach is that the E-scope team are always friendly, but this approach was really original. It was sad she isn’t in contact with Eva.

Great job with the favorite redhead, I don’t know if any of the remainder G1 characters can have an interview as funny as this one, but I’m sure they will be great nonetheless.

I’m gladly surprised. I didn’t expect Izzy’s interview would be so funny and interesting. The mix of her craziness with a lot of serious stuff made it a blast to read.

From the beginning and her dynamic entrance, the interview was ready for a shock. But what surprised me more was her opinion of Alejandro. She was not insulting him just starting but was more or less neutral.

And that was the tone of the interview, she had some question where she was positive (like Eva, and LeShawna), other in which she was negative (Cody Justin and Harold) and others she was neither but also she was pretty funny (like Gwen and Duncan.)

But a constant in all the responses was her attitude and clever answers and analogies. For example, I laughed when she rolled her eyes really hard at Cody’ scene or her obsession with who had better boobs she or Gwen. And of course everytime she laughs

I wonder what will happen next, and how is her relationship with Owen right now.

Yay finally Alejandro and heathers parts have been done my Aleheather heart can relax.
After all the cast has been done will you do a couples edition cause thatll be really cool and more interesting to read?

And it’s over. This must be the most exciting interview as a whole, yes Duncan and Courtney had some juicy moments, but Heather had something to say of everyone, and it was never something nice.

Leshawna and Lindsay were a bloodbath. It showed she felt comfortable taking out all that she thought about them. Stealing Trent’s first kiss was totally evil (and appropriate for her,) and of course, how she bashed the second generation. It was so intense that I didn’t notice she skipped the “meeting with other people of other seasons” question.

Finally. the best was Alejandro’s section, which really shows all the complexity of their relationship. I was surprised Josh didn’t try to milk Alejandro’s accident, but it’s also understable. Also it’s less emotional than Alejandro but also really emotional in her own Heatherish way.

And the ending without saying goodbye, it was great. I really doubt any other camper can do a juicier interview, but let’s wait and see.

And as we expected, Heather’s chapter is really awesome. I love her attitude and how she doesn’t have anything nice to say of ANYONE. It’s like an extreme version of Gwen and I love her.

At the start, she already established she meant business, and her attitude was cold and arrogant, but almost immediately, she went and began to slash and dice.

Bridgette’s section was amazing, poor Courtney but reading what Heather thought of her was really funny. This and Duncan were really good. I will include Geoff too. These were all awesome and, in any other episode, would be my favorites.

But Gwen and Harold were the best, especially as we don’t know who is telling the truth and who doesn’t. The way she tries to blame Gwen for many of her things was so Heather, especially the ant farm.

And also a nice surprise that her comment about Izzy was less harsh than I expected. Well, she can’t hate everyone.

My only surprise was that she didn’t curse Ezekiel a bit more after the millions dollar problem in World tour, but again it was many years ago.

This is my new favorite episode, and for the next one I'm really curious about LeShawana, Justin, and of course Alejandro’s sections. nice job I hope you update soon.
