Favourite- Caved by the Bell Least Favourite- Jurassic Fart

[@johnmarkee3857]

Honestly gave up on the season without finishing it because I was just mostly hating it by the time that I quit and all of the few good characters (MK, Damien, Scary Girl and Axel before she was ruined in the second season) were gone by the sixth episode. But of the ones I did see: Best: Drown Town Abbey Worst: Jurassic Fart

[@Zee_Dog]

My favorite is every episode except for Jurassic Fart

[@notjulian4481]

You should react to disvinture camp (season 1,2,3) it’s just like total drama but it’s fan made) a lot of people even say it’s better and also it’s not childish . Rn they still dropping the rest of the all stars episode .

[@ShadyRK9]

Fun Fact: even Terry Mcgurrin hated "Jurassic Fart" and didn't want to upload it but was convinced by one of the writers to make it anyway!

[@baileylynn5562]

Terry seems to be very in touch with the fans, based on his Twitter. He’s also a big MKulia shipper

[@johnmarkee3857]

It wasn't that he hated it and didn't want it to be made, he just thought that the premise was weird and was close to cancelling it had he not been turned around by it's first draft. The irony being that many fans (myself included) wish that it had been cancelled anyways. But this major lapse in judgement doesn't surprise me in the slightest considering some of the crap he's written into his own episodes like 'and then Gwen smeared bear crap on the painting!'.

[@gianni2003]

Personally, it's so disappointing that Jurassic Fart tainted the reboot's reputation for people who are mostly out of the show's bubble, who think this is the reboot in its entirety and say it's terrible (the three main reasons for these people hating the reboot, without really giving it a chance, were this episode, the new theme song and Terry voicing Chris, who's not even that bad) when, in reality, outside of this episode, there weren't that many fart jokes (especially in season 2)

[@MarxistMomentum]

6:36 Now I'll forever imagine that the "Jerry" that Nichelle is referring to is actually The Lich.

[@I_Am54738]

Another great details about Severe eggs and pain that wasnt mention is how Bowie Handled his new relationship with Raj, Saying Straight up to his face that his priority is to win which sounds bad but it actually shows his honesty towards the people he cares about cause he dont want to break his heart, and i love that his love for Raj is portrayed in a way that doesnt change his strategic mastermind side That kind of detail is how you make an antagonist you can actually root but in a different way than Heather and Julia

[@CrunchMunchzx]

“Buttknuckle” is still the dumbest way to eliminate a character

[@sideeswipe]

That’s not how mj got eliminated tho

[@CrunchMunchzx]

But it’s how Julia found out about what she was doing which in no possible way could lead her to that conclusion “Wait buttknuckle is my word” “She must be looking at the confessionals which I have no way to knowing how she could possibly do that☝️🤓”

[@bethanysingsmrs849]

​@@CrunchMunchzx i get what u mean but it kind of makes sense julia lost her phone so it would make sense for her to be suspicious buttknuckle is a word no ones ever heard before until julia said it and mk never had said it before that moment. julia is naturally antagonistic so she would always be trying to pattern recognition constantly irl if someone said a word that only i had said before and my phone was missing, and i noticed that person was being suspicious in general, id probably jump to a similar conclusion julia did. also Julia had only ever siad buttknuckle in her confessional and nowhere else

[@antoeab]

⁠@@bethanysingsmrs849in fact Julia never says Buttknuckle until this episode, she doesn’t really get that much screentime before she gets exposed but it gets pretty clear that she was fake and insulting the others in confessionals (like Nichelle, Bowie, especially Emma) and it just wasn’t shown

[@XanderMatthews-nv9zf]

The fact that the episode had "cum" in it solidified me to make a weird joke

[@BowieSlayz]

This season had 2 of my favorite jokes that make me laugh more than I should to them 1. Ripper: Watcha writin’ nerd? WOOOOOOOORDS?!? 😭 2. Chris: That! Sounds lil a question for someone who CARES! About that question! 💀

Pirates of the Cabbagean was a fun episode! Probably one of the best Reboot S1 episodes. I think it deserved to be placed higher.

[@ChillerThriller]

7:17, Total Drama did use the fish eye camera in The Ridonculous Race but my guess you said that was saying of the canon show in universe and not Ridonculous Race because it is a different show in the Total Drama universe

[@F.A_NATION]

I don’t know if this is intentional or a glitch, but when Jurassic Fart airs on CN, it’s called “Jurassic F.” If it is intentional, it’s kinda stupid for CN to show fart jokes but not even say ‘fart’

[@NVPlayz1]

Yay a TD video finally! That’s what I subscribed for!

[@BowieSlayz]

[@Julian-lz5pd]

Maybe a hot take but I love the pole challenge! With Total Drama being a Survivor parody, it was kinda cool seeing them bring in a challenge that's actually, literally, been done on Survivor

Jurassic fart was so good for Julia…but omg the episode had me in tears

[@darkron288]

Wait season 1? Is there a season 2 already?! man this series must have flown under the radar if this is the first time i'm hearing of this

[@gianni2003]

Yup. There's a season 2 (well, season 1B actually, since it's kinda like an All-Stars-Pahkitew situation), which finished in the UK in January, but started in December in Italy and apparently it will start right after season 1 ends in the US. Don't remember if it already came out in Canada. Season 1 did tho

[@ShadyRK9]

@@darkron288 yeah. Us Americans is late as hell! There could already been a Season 3 in production for all we know!

[@gianni2003]

​​@@ShadyRK9Not really, no. We'll get a season 3 only if it does well in America (this didn't depend from Fresh TV tho). The first episode had 111k viewers, which is apparently pretty high for TD standards (and probably modern cable TV, I think) , so hopefully it's going to be renewed

[@vgmarkis]

Marketing/release schedule for this reboot has been all over the place so it's completely understandable for people out there to still be in the dark about it actually being out now haha.

[@Salemwitchcraft]

If I had to rank HOW the characters were eliminated Id do this: 15: Damien (They did my man so dirty) Worse version of Dave wanting to get out 14/13: Raj/Wayne Never been a fan of med evact elims. They feel lazy. 12/11: Chase/Emma Nothing special, their elims added nothing to the season and didnt show off any characters talents. 10: Zee: Like stated in the video it was predictable both from the episode and just looking at the cast. 9: MK Buttknuckle 8: Bowie: So sad for him to lose, I really wish he won that way the winner wouldnt have been so predictable. 7: Ripper Is only this high because of how happy everyone was when he left. 6: Nichelle Really added a lot because everybody thought she was gonna be this great character who would last a while, broke expectations. 5: Caleb All it does it set Bowie up as very strategic. He wasnt a unique character so I wasnt mad. 4: Axel Again a very surprising elimination as people thought she'd last longer. 3: Scary Girl: While it was pretty easy to tell by her actions this ep, it was still fun to have her and she was a great character. (She shouldnt be this high I forgot about her. She should be below Ripper) 2: Julia Showed another feat of Bowie being very strategic and taking down his biggest enemy. 1: Millie While I wish she got out sooner, they did her elim sooooo well. It helped Priya, Millie, and Bowie's characters and was very new to the series.

[@thefreindlywan]

i aint waiting for max, I'm just going to watch the other episodes on KZbin

[@Raintamp]

For Jurassic fart, I do have to give it credit, terrible episode, but Z and Chase's interaction was absolutely hilarious and was onebof the funniest scenes in the show as a whole.

[@owenm.5056]

Episode 5 had that Total Dramarama humor

[@Reckz_TDXCK]

The only reason that characters do stuff off screen to get sm1 out is because the writers want it to be a mystery. Like if we saw bowie telling everyone to get caleb out then theres no point to carry on watching.

Due to overly high expectations, Reboot's season 2 is insanely modest. All I wanted was for Ripper and Axel to get some fun content, for Caleb to become appropriate, and for the ordinary captivating people of Zee and the Hockey Bros to be entertaining. I got all of mine fulfilled since the bar was so low, and the other content was still enjoyable on its own. In spite of the fact that it could have been better, it wasn't bad at all!
