Total Drama Island is a fictional reality show that follows the competition of twenty-two teens at Camp Wawanakwa, a fictional island located in an uspecified area in Muskoka, Ontario. The campers participate in competitions to avoid being voted off the island by their fellow campers. At the end of the series, the winning contestant will win C$100,000. The competition is hosted by Chris McLean, who is assisted by the camp’s chef, Chef Hatchet. At the beginning of the season, the twenty-two teen campers are placed into two groups of eleven, the “Screaming Gophers” and the “Killer Bass”. A gopher is a wild animal that is closely related to prairie dogs. They do make a screaming-like noise to communicate, and that’s probably why they chose the name “Screaming Gophers”. Bass are a type of fish who are found mostly in North American ponds, rivers, streams, lakes, tide pools and even the ocean. Bass are not killers, but as a matter of fact they are mostly kill-ed by sharks, whales, etc. The campers for the “Killer Bass” are, Duncan, DJ, Bridgette, Tyler, Eva, Courtney, Katie, Sadie, Harold McGrady, Geoff and Ezekiel. The campers for the “Screaming Gophers” are Owen, Trent, Gwen, Izzy, Heather, Lindsay, Justin, Noah, Cody Anderson, Beth and LeShawna.
