Total Drama World Tour: The Finale

Yesterday, Total Drama World Tour ended. As much as I like the cartoon, it’s been a little annoying the past few episodes. Specifically, “Rapa-phooey!” and onwards. It’s literally just been Sierra, Alejandro, Heather and Cody. I needed some differences!

Heather won the million… until zombie!Ezekiel stole it all from her and then fell into a volcano. Alejandro got burnt and trampled by everyone, Heather was trying to avoid a flaming boulder, and then… the show ended.

Oh, and there were Star Wars and Lord of the Rings references. Too bad the safety of some characters had to be compromised for these references. Oh, and chances are, no kid in the target audience from this cartoon even knew the references!

I’m glad Heather won, because she was one of the only contestants who was in it to win it, unlike those trying to get out on purpose (DJ), or those who tried to use the show as a matchmaker (Harold, Gwen, Duncan, Courtney… the list goes on). She made a full circle from villain to anti-hero.

And today’s “I have too much time on my hands!” theory is:  Heather is two letters away from Hester, as in Hester Prynne from The Scarlet Letter. At first people hated Hester, but then she won them over with her sewing skills, or something like that. She had to wear a letter A, which stood for Adulteress, but later stood for Able. Heather used to be an Adulteress for kissing Trent, but then she became Able enough to win the competition. So, is Heather Hester? Probably not, but still.

Courtney talked a bit too much, which annoyed me, and Sadie, a near mute character, finally got lines.

There will also be a new season coming up next year, so we’ll have to stay tuned.
