Even the guys who aren't as nerdy as the previous characters like Mike and Dave are also relatively scrawny. Noodle People: Many of the nerdier guys such as Harold, Noah and Cameron tend to be scrawny.Necessary Evil: Heather, Courtney, Duncan and Alejandro always end up being the self-appointed leader of whatever group they end up on and if two of them are placed on the same team become The Leader and The Lancer respectively, they also always end up making all the other contestants hate them and desperately want to vote them off, however teams that don't have them on tend to suffer from lack of coordination and take the brunt of Chris's bullying, Team Victory from World Tour is a pretty good demonstration of what happens when a team doesn't have one of them on it.

GWEN TOTAL DRAMA SERIES
This is common in every season, even though the competition arguably gets MORE dangerous as the series continues. Regardless, they walk away with no injuries. In the very first episode of the series, the contestants have to jump off a tall cliff. Made of Iron: Every single contestant.Hormone-Addled Teenager: Detailing the Love Dodecahedrons between all 84 contestants could fill a small dictionary.Everyone Is Single: With the known exception of one camper, Sky, who'd wanted to break up with her boyfriend anyway, all of the contestants are single when they participate for the first time, which is perfect for creating romantic drama.Cast of Snowflakes: Almost every single character note with Identical Twins Amy and Samey as the exception has a unique design that leaves them easily recognizable even as a mere silhouette.Butt-Monkey: Pain and humiliation is the name of the game in Total Drama, and every contestant is bound to get their fill sooner or later.Animals Hate Him: It's practically tradition for the contestants to get attacked or mauled by wild animals, several times a season.And all of this is ignoring the fact that the hosts of the show are a shamelessly sadistic narcissist who only cares about milking his show for maximum ratings and drama and a Drill Sergeant Nasty Scary Black Man who cooks crappy food for the sole purpose of making everyone's lives as miserable as possible.

GWEN TOTAL DRAMA TV
The third generation contestants are a guy who talks only in Wacky Sound Effects, a LARPer who is convinced he is an actual wizard, a whiny Neat Freak who thinks he's the Only Sane Man, a song-obsessed teenage girl still in her Princess Phase, a farmboy who hopelessly falls in love with every girl he lays eyes on, a Gentle Giant Australian stereotype, a Crazy Survivalist obsessed with zombies, an obese pageant queen with a white trash upbringing, a self-declared evil genius who only manages to be a Harmless Villain, a bookworm whose polite facade hides a psychotic personality, an aspiring reality TV host whose personal hero is the narcissistic sociopath who runs the show, twin cheerleaders who do nothing but bicker with each other, and a Passionate Sports Girl so focused with winning the competition that she was willing to throw away the boy who liked her without second thought.The second generation contestants are a Creepy Child implied to have supernatural powers, a hipster who Apologizes a Lot, a kid with Split Personalities, a military cadet who's a big softie at heart, a hillbilly with Chronic Backstabbing Disorder, a Jerk Jock so stupid he can't identify others' genders, a super-genius who never talks, a genius Bubble Boy, an overweight gamer geek, a Joisey stereotype obsessed with her hair and spray tan, a compulsive liar who never shuts up, a tomboy who treats everyone around her as expendable fodder, and the most massive Attention Whore to have ever starred on reality TV.

And then Season 3 adds the ultimate Loony Fan and a ridiculously suave and talented Latin Lover to the mix.
