Parents need to know that this sequel to popular animated reality spoof Total Drama Island is best enjoyed by tweens and teens who can appreciate its satirical view of real-life shows like Survivor. For this age group, there's nothing really worrisome beyond some potty humor (mostly belches and farts), kissing, and occasional innuendo. The heavily stereotyped characters invite obvious labels (the nerd, the drama queen, the outcast, etc.), but the extreme nature of their personalities is meant to spoof how actual reality shows are cast -- and ultimately only adds to the show's satirical nature.
Positive messages:The show plays on established character stereotypes for laughs -- but viewers who get the joke will see all of this behavior for the for its true satirical nature and its commentary on reality entertainment as a whole. There's also lots of potty humor, including farts and belches.
Positive role models:As part of the show's satire, the characters all fit into stereotypes like "the nerd," "the jock," "the
cheerleader," and "the overweight guy," just to name a few. Greed
usually overtakes their sense of decency, and they relish in
sounding off about their peers. Again, though, it's all part of the joke and meant to be a commentary.
Violence:Danger lurks in many of the challenges the teens face during the competition -- as when they must outrun a gigantic animatronic monster. Sometimes the contestants rough each other up, but it's not serious, and there's no lasting injury.
best show in the world and content is not bad!!!! my 7 year old sister watches it.
this show is the best !!!!!!!!!!!! i love it so much although i can disagree with some of the events . age wise i don't think its bad my 7 year old sister watches it with me and she is totally fine with it along with our parents. the language isn't bad besides suck a couple times . honestly the content of the show is not terrible or even bad so yes its very ok to watch even if youre younger than 9 ( i recomend around 6- older)
Great show really funny! A character breaks his jaw. Many characters are hit in the crotch. A dead Chris. An impaled Chris, it turns out to be a prop. Some kissing. Bleeped out f-words in only one episode.
Still NOT FOR KIDS!!!!! STILL THE MOST INAPPROPRIATE SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Again!!! All the sexual behavior is NOT FOR ANY KID!!!!! HATE IT STILL!! THEY CURSE!! LOOK AT ANOTHER GIRLS BOOBS IN THIS SHOW AND YOU WILL STOP WATCHING THIS CRAP!!!! I HATE IT EVEN MORE NOW!!! I HATE IT OK!!!! THEY STILL DO DRUGS TO GET ALL WEIRD, DUMB, STUPID, UGLY, CREEPY AND SCARY LIKE THE 1ST ONE!!!!
Great second season, US version stays closer to original Canadian version
AWESOME show, loved it just as much as Season 1! Although most may think that TDI was better and TDA almost killed it, I think TDWT brought it back to life! Even though TDI is more crude to some, there were a lot of edits placed on it. Keep this in mind because TDA had a lot less edits put on it, so more minor swears may be audible (Be warned parents: audible "crap"s abound). All in all, a great show!
I am IN LOVE with TDA!! :D In my opinion, TDA is waaaay better than tdi cuz I'm an actress, and its actor-themed with diffrent themes like Dinosaur, and stuff like that!! :)
I am 12, and I am OBSESSED with tda and tdi!! :)
It's my fave show, next to iCarly! :)
Gwen + Trent= Love
Duncan+Courtney Forever!!
Geoff+Bridgette Forever!! :)
my fave couples!! :)
I love this show! It is the best in the world! And i tihnk its fine for 9+ to watch, because they will be able to understand the jokes. But under 9 isnt such a good idea, because they wont get the jokes.
The good things about it are no gore or violence-except for bombs-, no weapons-well they are used for cooking, but not to hurt anyone- no drugs or acohol, and no extreme sexual behavior-like talking about it or actuallly doing it-.
And i wouldnt mind if it got moved to a diferent channel, but cmon. I think that its perfect for CN because now theyre growing up a little, but not too much. Now lets say they wanted to put Family Guy or Kourtney and Khloe on here, then that would be a good reason to have CN taken off of your TV
This show was never ment for little kids in first place, it comes on late at night and if you dont want your kids watching this show, why are they up at 10 o clock anyways? The jokes are ment for kids who have a "middle school" type of humor, the "dirty" jokes are subtle and if your kids can't deal with thia kind of mild humor don't have them watch the show. Mostly everone complains about the girls "perfect" features, just because they seem to have large chests and backsides doesn't make them perfect. The point of having all of the girls look this way is to show the difference in each of the girls personalities and how they handle the competition and other members of the show. Just because you see a girl with a small stomach and big features doesn't mean you should assume that the girl has a "perfect" demeanor about her figure. If you want completely politically correct shows for your child to watch PBS and Nick Jr. are always an alternative, your child should have learned at this point that some people have what society calls a "perfect" body and some don't. It is a show ment for kids who have a small understanding of human behavior, human dynamics and social skills, not for a sheltered 8 year old whose parents make them think that everybody wins and there are no losers in the world, newsflash once your kid enters highschool they are going to have a major culture shock as well as a huge reality check...
This Is Total Drama Action Not Total Drama Romance.
If The Title Says Action,That Means It Needs A Lot Of Action.But Emily Ashby Says There's Not That Much Violence And She Says There's More Sexual Content Than Violence And That's Not True.Stupid Emily.
Yes there is some mild kissing andactions but nothing too bad. This is one of my 5 and 7 year olds favorite shows and a show my 4 year old enjoys. Some episodes are worse then others but this is not some horrible show forbidden in my house.
