Total Drama Revenge of the Island THEN vs NOW! 

Additionally, it makes more sense for Lighting to spend an entire season thinking a girl is a guy if her name is Jo, whereas it would’ve been a bit of a stretch for Lightning to think “Mary” was a boy all season.

Original Mike looking like Shaggy from Scooby Doo do but doesn't have nowhere near as much power

So Mike use to look like Shaggy from Scooby-doo.

God I would’ve loved for Brick to be given more attention as a character, he’s easily my favourite. Out of all the butchered characters in All Stars, Brick would’ve been perfect for the ‘Heroes’ team

It’s kinda interesting how diverse the Total Drama cast was before that was really a thing people pushed hard for in television. I appreciate that tho

3:01 That is such a cute character. I feel like they should’ve used her in roti as a different character going on the mutant maggots. I think it’s unfair that’s a Mutant Maggots got six members in the toxic rats got seven

I REALLY liked Molly's design. Gives off a tomboy like vibe.

Honestly the change for diversity really helped the show for me when I was little. Me and Mike aren’t the same ethnicity (my family is Mexican) but seeing a character with the same skin tone as me made him really special for younger me and probably helped him be one of my favorite total drama characters point blank. Also makes it feel more like an actual reality show where it feels like they actually picked a bunch of people from different backgrounds from the pool of auditions instead of pre-making them you know

who else thought dawn deserved better

Maybe CA Scott was supposed to be like Brick but a bit meaner. Think of it like putting Heather, Duncan, and Brick all into one character and giving that person Scott's features.

Another thing interesting about Brick is that, as seen in his concept art, he was actually meant to been an antagonist who was a lot more harsh and blunt toward the other campers. However, they pretty much gave that personality trait to Jo instead.

Brick originally looks more bossy and perhaps smarter? More like scott.

Btw Old Scott/Brick’s “necklace” is actually dog tags. They’re basically military identification. Makes me wonder if Scott was going to be a military guy like Brick ended up being.

Anyone else notice that both Zoey’s had red bracelets? Just me?

I really love what they did with dakota, the reason she's so iconic is because she always looked like a paris hilton rip-off. Her beta design was cute but not really her style, i'm glad they used it to make the zoey we know and love.

2:22 - Stacy 3:11 - Zoey 3:35 - Anne Marrie 3:59 - Dakota 4:22 - Jo 4:45 - Mike 5:54 - Lightning 6:08 - Scott

I recognized that beta cameron is the twin from Ridiculous Race almost instantly before he even said it- Maybe they will use Beta designs for newer seasons. If there will be newer seasons.

Here is something you forgot to mention, during the development of Revenge of the Island, the season was supposed to come out in 2011, there is actually a teaser trailer made back in 2011, it was delayed because of the Fukushima earthquake that happen in Japan the crew made a few changes such as removing mention radioactive to toxic.

5:39 I never noticed Mal in the background until now

I think Brick was meant to be the main antagonist looking at his concept design and Scott was meant to be the army cadet.

Molly is wonderful I want to see this design in the future with Original/Glass Zoey I wonder what their personality would be like I remember reading that Dawn's voice actress auditioned to voice Molly and a "Zoey"

4:35 That's just Shaggy from Scooby Doo.

Zoinks Cameron, like how do I tell Zoey about my MPD?

mike looks like hes about to solve a mystery 💀

I wonder if old mike still had Svetlana, Manitoba, Chester, Vito, and mal.

Wait since the new season is with a new cast. Do you think it’s possible they might use both beta zoey and molly be incorporated for new contestants? I just realized that in five minutes

If scotts og design made it to the final release, he would remind me of current Brick

I also thought that because B didn't say much/last too long, they could've used that older/OG design as a self-reference and homage to how far they've come as a series

B's close resemblance to the camp TV "original DJ I guess", I saw that man as a camera man.

5:34 ✨excuse me are you a pickle?✨

I think Sam, B and Brick were the best of TDRI

Speaking of Mike's propotype design, his appearance inspires Jimmy in Jimmy Two Shoes. After that, his body stays the same and his details and colors changed. That's a nice reference we see.

I'm in the middle of binge watching TD on Netflix, liked alot of the characters in Revenge of the Island, which is why I hate how we get so little of them. At only 13 episodes, we really didn't get to see them grow and evolve if they didn't make it into the next season. Wanted to see more of B, Dawn, Dakota(zoid), and even Brick.

6:50 is anyone gonna talk about this? HE’S LITRALLY MICKEY FROM THE RIDONCULUOS RACE!

If it wasn’t for the theme song being released on RU-vid before the season was promoted in America I wouldn’t have notice it was coming

Wait he said Mike was Italian, but when I was watching the show I thought he was Filipino, and I ended up googling it and a website I found said he was Filipino? I know he can be both since mixed kids exist, but that part confused me-

My theory: beta brick was going to be the main villain for ROTI while beta Scott was going to be a military cadet. Just my theory, but I think it’s plausible. Note how beta Scott had the dog-tag necklace that final-design brick has.

out there theory, scott and brick original concepts were switched, with Brick being the one from the out in the country and scot the military brat then, during production, they inverted the thing with the updated design, lowered the brat-side of military brat and pushed directly to the country of the final version (and all-star) of scott

This could have been twice as good if there were 26 episodes.

4:43 Shaggy; the hell are you doing here?!

I love that Mike voices light in the death note dub

I wish they'd at least left the hipster glasses on Zoey. That would have at least given her one reason to be called "The Indie Chick". Then she could also be a bit more about not liking mainstream stuff, sort of like Gwen but with a more upbeat charm to her.

Holy shit OG Mike was literally just Shaggy

Anyone else notice how old Cameron was very close to Mickey from the ridonculous race

While i think every change was for the better, i genuinely like Beta Zoey's design better than the final one, i don't know why.

Facts: Gwen Zoey and Jo are among 3 characters who had their original names changed at some point: Gwen as Heather Zoey as Molly Jo as Mary (The name of the Geniuses Girl Of TDRR) And the only characters that didnt make it to the final cut in Total Drama Reuloaded are Dawn and B. And also the Adversity Twins design of Jay and Mickey looked liked Cameron's original design.

Mike just turned into steve

Also, 'Molly's' design still has the came bangals as 'Zoe's' design which I really like they kept it

I honestly think most of the new designs just look so much more refined and ready to go. Old Molly looks kinda scene and I like that idea.

Zoe’s design also kept the red bracelets!

I kinda Scott's beta design better, I also get the feeling Scott's character and Brick's character were swapped during development

DJ's Camp TV design was also featured in the Ridonculous Race as a background character.

4:37 For some reason I think Mike was supposed have glasses or be blind because of this pose in the OG design

I Like Scott's beard I think it would play into scott's role as villain visually

Mike today: I'm a tan Italian with MPD. I'm also dating Zoey and won All Stars in some places. Mike then: *S H A G G Y S H A W N I N T E N S I F I E S*

4:54 im almost completely sure that i saw the pilot with that character design. I remember i walked into my older brother watching something in a summer camp and i remember a blond character with multiple personality disorder. When i watched the show, at the start i thought jeff had multiple personality disorder, since i watched it a few years later.

I like a lot of the old designs and new ones.

4:46 went from shaggy to raggy

brick deserve to be in next season

I think Mikes old design looks more like Shaggy

(Potential Spoilers) Bricks head actually looks like a whistle, especially his early design.

Nobody is gonna talk about Mike being Shaggy?

Mikes first design looks like he’s blind 😂

Kneckless, Scott and Brick has Army dogtags indicating that Scott might have been a recruit as well as Brick

About your channel, it was just recommend to me last weekend so I think the thing is RU-vid is throwing your channel out there and people will look at it only to see if it's interesting. Luckily I subscribed

I like how you have scenes of each character in the background.

Mike went from shaggy to steve from minecraft

It's weird how I've never seen someone talk about how there is 7 boys and 6 girls but they managed to eliminated 3 girls and 1 guy in the first 5 episodes. Leaving 2 times more guys than girls (3 - 6)

Mike really said "I was alex back then now I'm Steve" 💀

zoey’s og design is so cute

6:34 Oh I get it, Jay was supposed to be Cameron.

Beta Zoey is so cute, she actually looks like a dorky wierdo.

man I gotta go back and watch ALL of this

Yeah... I knew I remember B from Total Drama Action. He was on 2 or 3 episodes as some kind of low-level technical worker of the show (moving things, cleaning etc.) I rewatched few first episodes on RU-vid and his first appearance is on episode 3 and his design is almost completely the same as in 4th season. Personally I know it could a longshot but I want to see kind of development for this character like this all appearances in past seasons wasn't accidentally (Even if they in really was) by making this part of his lore.

Cant believe we went from Shaggy to Steve.

Scott and brick might have been inverts of each other so brick would've been the Scott and Scott as brick

mike was originally going to shake instead of gasp when switching personality's but they changed it so it would be more obvious

So....did anyone else see Mal behind Mike at 5:43?

6:40 og cameron literally looks exactly like the twins from the ridonculas race just different clothes

So Mike's voice actor who voices Mike and his multiple personalities also voices Jimmy two shoes? I didn't need to know that! Dear god Jimmy two shoes such a bad show! Dear god!

POV you’re VGmarkis: --------------. Get it because of the glasses

2:51 like u said a great design that COULD be used

Fun fact: lighting and sugar was a total dramarama character in an episode (I forgot what the episode was called) same with other characters

6:53 Wait a minute i know that guy

The before Mike looks like shaggy lol

Concept Design Scott looks like he would be in Total Drama Reunion... Hmm, I wonder if they would've used other character and generations as contestants or even just as cameos?

Old variant Mike looks like Shaggy

I like to think that Molly canonically exists in the Total Drama universe, but dropped out last second, and that explains why there's an odd number of players. For those who don't know, a similar incident occurred in the fourteenth season of Survivor, where one of the contestants dropped out mere moments before filming started, resulting in there only being 19 contestants. So I thought it be cool if Total Drama had something like that, lol.

Im kinda glad that some of the characters look better in the final product than they do in the development looking at you staci

Proto Mike also would've invited Shaggy from Scooby Doo comparisons. I mean, I always called him Shaggy when I saw him. XD

"Also if the face and hair of concept Cameron lꝏk familiar, it's because Jay, one of the Adversity Twins from TDP:RR has the same exact hairstyle, color, and face as ϐeta Cameron'' More like both of them bc Mickey (the one with the helmet) also has those traits as well lol

Him: My theory why the design is change, It’s because it resembles another cartoon character named Jimmy Too Shoes Shaggy: I’m a joke to you?

Actually the silent B lookalike the was first used for dj first design was used as a the backstage crew member

In June 2010, Total Drama World Tour had started to air, with it ending in November 2010 in the US and April 2011 for Canada

To make the roster equal, they should've added Molly.

You ever see a concept design or alpha/beta version of something you feel nostalgic towards and begin missing the concept version of it even tho you literally have no memory, no recollection and no way of pretending you have the same connection towards it as you do the final product. Idk man, like you start missing something that never existed and that feeling just kinda trips me out like dawg, this a whole Ass thing I’m longing to reconnect with that never even was......upon inspection of the lemonade I’m drinking I’ve come to realize it’s packed with THC

I watched Jimmy Two-Shoes, how could I not have noticed the similarity in voice?!

Scott's beta design could legit pass as Scott's older brother

That's Shaggy but in Total Drama

I love total drama, I never miss an episode and right now I’m watching total drama all stars
