Heather does this a lot in Season 1. She tries to again in Season 2 but everyone has caught on by then and doesn’t fall for it.

All the characters are teenagers roughly around 16. Some of the challenges borderline on abuse and they get more vicious and brutal as the show progresses.

A character has an addiction to soda. Said character is supposed to be a toned-down version of the stoner archetype.

Lewd comments directed towards characters, particularly female characters, aren't uncommon. Chris sometimes flirts with Lindsay who is underage. Sierra harasses Cody throughout season 3, such as giving him unprompted foot massages and kissing him against his will, and he is clearly traumatized by her at points.

Sorta. In the very first episode, after Lindsay, a 16 year old character, is introduced, Chris, who is an adult, says "not to shabby". The age of consent in Canada, where the show takes place, is 16, but Chris' birthday is in November of 1978, and the show first aired in July of 2007, which would make him 28. There is still an age gap of over 5 years, so yeah, there is pedophilia in Total Drama.

Near the end of the first season there is a challenge where Heather has to shave her head. It goes wrong and all of Heathers hair is shaved off. She remains bald for the rest of the season. In season 2, she wears a wig but it frequently falls off or is lost and her still bald head is visible. When Season 3 starts, her hair has grown back.

A character is severely burnt by lava but survives. We see his scarred body be transformed into a robot in an homage to Star Wars.

In one of the first episodes from the first season, the challenge was that each character had to endure their worst fear. Which for one of them was being burried alive. Not only we can see her panic but she also gets forgotten and stuck inside for a while

A character's bed collapses, and it is revealed when he gets up that a spring is in his eye. No gore is shown, however.

Chris, the show's host, loves making challenges that gets worse and worse with time, that's, pretty much the plot of the main show

some of the cabins are slightly raised and have steps leading up to them, there are a few scenes where characters run up or down them very fast which made me nervous, but no one actually falls iirc

The first challenge has them jump off a cliff into shark-infested water but nobody dies. However a later episode does imply people died offscreen doing a similar challenge.

All of the contestants are teenagers, and a good chunk of them are sexualized to varying degrees. For example, we have Heather showing her breasts in “X-Treme Torture.”

All the characters are tricked via contract into staying on the island but most of them could probably get out if they wanted (via getting voted out on purpose)

An electric razor, but not a razor blade. Used to shave off someone’s hair, not for self harm or other violent means.

Izzy is a "psycho" stereotype and a casually violent pyromaniac. All played for laughs. Season 5 also has an "evil DID alter" stereotype as a prominent villain.

Multiple characters (Gwen and Josee) are claustrophobic and suffer from panic attacks while trapped in small spaces. This occurs in S1E7, S2E7, and the 13th and 25th episodes of Ridonculous Race.

The show is framed as if it’s a real reality show, so there is numerous instances of characters sitting alone in a room talking to the camera to directly convey their thoughts and feelings to the audience in the same vein as shows like Survivor or Big Brother

a pretty common joke is that chef (a very masculine, threatening, and dangerous black man, which is not a great look already) wears dresses sometimes. whether it was his or chris' choice depends on the instance, though. this joke is most prevalent in action, so if that's an issue skip that season.

Every character is a parody of a TV stereotype such as the manipulative bitch who brings almost all the conflict, the sassy black woman, the nerdy guy who tries to act cool but makes himself look like more of a loser, the hot guy who does nothing but flex etc. None of said stereotypes cross the line to offensiveness and there are no stereotypes of LGBT people period.

Character with DID (no longer called Multiple Personality Disorder *as called on the Show) called Mike appears in TDRI (4th) and TDAS (First part of 5th) seasons. He is teased by Scott in early episodes and *cures* his disorder in 5x12 by pressing a button :/

In the original version of 1x01 (Not So Happy Campers- Part 1) in Canada, Chef Hatchet says to plus-sized contestant Owen ,,Come here fat boy". In the US the line was altered to ,,Come here big boy".

A running gag throughout Revenge of the Island (the fourth season) is that Jo is misgendered by Lightning. (It is not intentional, Lightning cannot tell that Jo is female, and she is AFAB)

Several instances of nudity, all of which are censored. A characters bra is torn off by a branch during a challenge but is again, censored. Still, pretty surprising considering it’s a kids show.

Every season ends with the money being lost or destroyed. Season 3 and all seasons onwards all end with the characters in mortal peril although they are later shown or said to have survived. An antagonist is the winner in Season 3.
