High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Total Drama: Revenge of the Island (TDRI for short) is the fourth season of the Total Drama franchise. The series` extension was commissioned by Teletoon from the producers, Fresh T.V. Inc. This season will take place back at Camp Wawanakwa (the original setting of the first season) but this time with an entirely new cast. However, since the island has been forgotten and left alone for the past two seasons, the island has been used as a toxic nuclear waste dump, transforming it into the perfect location for the most dramatic and brutal challenges yet. There will be thirteen new competitors: Anne Maria, B, Brick, Cameron, Dakota, Dawn, Jo, Lightning, Mike, Sam, Scott, Staci, and Zoey. This new season will have new friendships, new rivalries, new relationships, and the biggest drama yet, but will only be half the length of a regular season, with only 13 episodes. The purpose for this season is not just to start all over again, but to introduce the new cast to what the older contestants have gone through before and to get them ready for the fifth season. Teletoon has aired Total Drama: Revenge of the Island on Canada on Thursday nights at 7:00 p.m. EST from January 5, 2012 to April 12, 2012, while on June 5, 2012 the U.S. started airing it on Tuesday nights at 7:30 p.m. EST on Cartoon Network.
