TDA Ranking #12

Jun 30, 2013 by Bryce333
I just finished my rewatch of Total Drama Action, and I'm going to do a ranking of the fifteen competitors.
*
NOTE: This is a ranking of their characters on Total Drama Action, NOT their characters on TDI or TDWT.

#12. Duncan

Like with most characters that came on this list before him, Duncan was awesome in TDI. He was the badass punk who had no respect for authority and abided by nobody's rules but his own. I was excited to see him coming back for TDA, because there was SO much the writers could do with his character. They could explore the soft side of him we saw in TDI, or maybe we'd finally see him and Harold working together...

Instead, we got the EXACT same character we saw in TDI. Except... a whole lot meaner. Duncan got absolutely NO personal development, save for making up with, then breaking up with, then making up with Courtney again. He treated Harold terribly, turned his nose up at challenges, and acted just like he acted in TDI. Basically, he was a bully and a jerk.

It was cool his first season, but he made FINAL FOUR in TDI. And then he goes and WINS TDA? I don't like the same characters getting far again and again, only if they receive significant character development to justify it, (For example, Heather making finals in TDWT was awesome, because she was such a different person than she was when she made the final three in TDI).

This time around, Duncan's act got old. Harold became the victim instead of the annoying geek he was in TDI, and it made Duncan look really, really bad. Duncan was just plain MEAN, from laughing at Lindsay for eliminating herself, to kicking Harold's backpocket, to treating Beth like a joke in the finale. I don't want to root for mean people to win the game, and watching him get far acting like nothing but an asshole was extremely hard. He did NOT deserve a million dollars, which is why Beth will always the Canon winner in my mind.

HINT for #11: Was in a relationship in TDA

tag me! I think Duncan should be maybe a few placements higher but I definitely agree he was one of the weaker characters of TDA
