Overview
Total Drama Island focuses on twenty-two teenagers' arrival at Camp Wawanakwa to compete on a reality television show. The contestants are divided into two teams and must compete in challenges every three days. While the winning team earns invincibility, the losing team has to vote off one of their own players. Whoever is voted off must walk the Dock of Shame to the Boat of Losers and leave the island. The teams eventually dissolve and the elimination process continues until the last contestant standing wins a grand prize of $100,000.

Primary
Total Drama Island is primarily a comedic satire of reality television and a character-driven competition, rather than a vehicle for political ideology. Its core subject matter is apolitical, and it does not champion an ideologically charged solution to the problems it presents, focusing instead on entertainment and character interactions.
Total Drama Island features a visibly diverse cast of original characters, reflecting a range of ethnicities and body types without explicit race or gender swaps of established roles. The narrative focuses on parodying reality television and character dynamics, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or making DEI themes central to its plot.
Secondary
The original season of Total Drama Island does not include any explicit LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The show's narrative primarily focuses on heterosexual relationships and friendships, with no identifiable queer representation present in the plot or character arcs.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Total Drama Island is the inaugural season of an original animated series. All characters introduced in this season are new creations for the show, without prior canonical or historical gender baselines from other source material. Therefore, no gender swaps occurred.
Total Drama Island (2007) is the original installment of the series, introducing its own cast of characters. There is no prior source material or previous installment from which these characters' races could have been established and subsequently changed.
