Total Drama: Revenge of the Island is the fourth season of the Total Drama franchise. The series' extension was commissioned by Teletoon from the producers, Fresh T.V. Inc. This season will take place back at Camp Wawanakwa (the original setting of the first season) but this time with an entirely new cast. However, since the island has been forgotten and left alone for the past two seasons, the island has been used as a toxic nuclear waste dump, transforming it into the perfect location for the most dramatic and brutal challenges yet. There will be thirteen new competitors: Ann Maria, B, Brick, Cameron, Dakota, Dawn, Jo, Lightning, Mike, Sam, Staci, Scott and Zoey. This new season will have new rivals, new relationships, and the biggest drama yet but will only be half the length of a regular season, with only 13 episodes.[1] The purpose for this season is not just to start all over again, but to introduce the new cast to what the older contestants have gone through before. Total Drama: Revenge of the Island will air next year in Canada on Teletoon and in the U.S. on Cartoon Network.

Format

Like Total Drama Island, this season is a fictional reality show that follows the competition of thirteen new teens at Camp Wawanakwa, a summer camp on a fictional island located in an unspecified area in Muskoka, Ontario, except now, the island is radioactive. The campers participate in competitions to avoid being voted off the island by their fellow teammates. At the end of the season, the winning contestant will win one million dollars. The competition is hosted by Chris McLean (Christian Potenza), who is assisted by the camp's chef, Chef Hatchet (Clé Bennett). At the beginning of the season, the thirteen campers are placed onto two teams, the Mutant Maggots and another unknown team. In each episode, the teams participate in a challenge, in which one or more campers can win invincibility for their team. The losing team is called to the elimination ceremony at night, where they vote one of their own members off the island. At the ceremony, McLean declares which contestants are safe by calling their name, while the one whose name is not called is eliminated from the game. About halfway through the season, the teams are disbanded, after which the challenges continue; the winner of each challenge then only receives invincibility for him or herself, whereupon a camper without invincibility is voted off the island. This process of elimination is continued on until two players remain on the island, where then they are subject to a final contest. At the end of the season one camper is crowned winner of the contest and is given the million dollars.

Cameos

Although it is confirmed that the original contestants will not compete in this season, some will still have cameo appearances throughout the season.[3] Todd Kauffman has confirmed on his Facebook that Duncan, Lindsay and Harold are some of the original contestants who will make a cameo. However, Kauffman also confirmed that Eva, Noah, Justin, Katie, Cody, Sadie, Leshawna, Alejandro, Sierra and Blaineley will not cameo.

Production

Total Drama: Revenge of the Island was developed and produced by Fresh T.V. Inc. Since all the characters in this season are completely new, the studio had to hire several new voice actors to come and voice the new characters. However, Brian Froud, the voice actor of Harold is returning to voice Sam, one of the new characters.[4] This season will be directed by two new directors, Keith Oliver and Chad Hicks. However, Mark Thornton and Todd Kauffman will still have some sort of role in the making of this season.

History

On March 25, 2011 all the shapes of all the 13 contestants were revealed in this video. On March 27, all the names and personalities of the contestants were revealed in a press release.[2] On April 5, 2011, Christian Potenza posted a YouTube video of him recording the first line of Total Drama: Revenge of the Island. The quote was, "Camp Wawanakwa! Once a paradise on earth, now a biohazardous dump! The perfect setting to drop a gang of teen-freaks and let 'em run wild! We're going back to the island, baby! A whole new set of campers. Each one more abnormal than the last. A whole new set of dangerous challenges! Insane, deranged, disgusting! These are just a few words that describe this season's high level of drama and another million dollar prize! Stay tuned for a brand new vengeful season of Total! Drama! Revenge of the Island!"[5] This line is used for the promotional trailer that Teletoon showed at the end of the Total Drama World Tour finale, which was first released on April 24, 2011 (Easter Sunday). On June 1st, Christian Potenza released on his Facebook the new season logo along with more final designs of the characters. On June 3rd, there were snapshots of radioactive Camp Wawanakwa.

Airdate conflict

Total Drama: Revenge of the Island was originally supposed to air in July on the U.S. and in September on Canada, but due to the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, the producers were forced to modify the storyline of the season to remove some radioactive references that were considered offensive to the Japanese disaster. This caused the season's airdate to be delayed until late September, and is now delayed again until January 2012.[12]
