The fifth season takes an interesting turn by being split into two wildly different mini-seasons of 13 episodes each. This confusing setup is the reason second mini-season occasionally gets advertised as the sixth season.

The last contestant standing wins a huge sum of cash; C$100,000 initially, then C$1,000,000 starting the first season's special.

The fourth season, ''Total Drama: Revenge of the Island'', features an all-new cast of 13 contestants and once more takes place at Camp Wawanakwa, only now its covered in radioactive waste and infested with mutants big and small. The season premiered on January 5, 2012 on Teletoon and is the first season to consist of only 13 episodes instead of the norm of 26 the first three seasons enjoyed.

Part two of the fifth season, ''Total Drama: Pahkitew Island'', features 14 another round of all-new contestants, and takes place on a new island, Pahkitew, located somewhere in Western Canada (British Columbia). Like ''All-Stars'', it also debuted in America first, on July 7, 2014.

A popular and iconic [[CanadianSeries Canadian animated series]] produced by Creator/FreshTV, the creators of ''WesternAnimation/{{Sixteen}}'', that debuted on Creator/{{Teletoon}} in Canada on July 8, 2007 and then came to Creator/CartoonNetwork in the United States on June 5, 2008. The show is about teenagers who sign up to star on a reality show similar to ''Series/{{Survivor}}'' called ''Total Drama'', where they are divided into teams and given challenges every three or so days. Whenever a team loses a challenge, they have to vote one of their members off the show. After a enough contestants from either opposite team are eliminated (in a combined total between both teams), the teams merge, and the remaining contestants compete as individuals and engage in a free-for-all where it's every man and woman for themselves. The last contestant standing wins C$100,000; although the prize money is changed to C$1,000,000 later on.

Since the show incorporates NewSeasonNewName, the second season is branded ''Total Drama Action''. It made its world debut on January 11, 2009 in Canada on Teletoon. While the season recycles contestants from the first season, it lowers the contestant count to 15 and changes the location from Camp Wawanakwa to an abandoned film lot somewhere in Toronto. New to the series are the Aftermath episodes, which take place in a studio and feature all the non-competitors and eliminated competitors. Timeline-wise, ''Action'' takes place two days after ''Island''.

Part two of the fifth season, ''Total Drama: Pahkitew Island'', features 14 completely new contestants, and takes place on a new island located somewhere in Western Canada (British Columbia). Like ''All-Stars'', it also debuted in America first, on July 7, 2014.

Since the show incorporates NewSeasonNewName, the second season was called ''Total Drama Action'', which made its world debut on January 11, 2009 in Canada on Teletoon. While the season recycles contestants from the first season, it lowers the contestant count to 14 (later 15 when one of the non-participating contestants joins in as a late entry, for legal reasons) and takes place on an abandoned film lot somewhere in Toronto.

The third season, ''Total Drama World Tour'', has 15 of the old contestants, as well as 2 (later 3) brand-new ones, traveling to different locations all around the world and bursting into impromptu musical numbers when mandated by Chris. This season premiered on June 10, 2010, once again in Canada.

The fourth season, ''Total Drama: Revenge of the Island'', features an all-new cast of 13 contestants and takes place at a now radioactive Camp Wawanakwa infested with mutants and monsters (due to Chris having rented the place out as a toxic waste dump after the first season). The season premiered on January 5, 2012 on Teletoon. It also marked the start of a major change in the series, with the number of episodes per season being cut down from 26 to 13.

The fifth season took an interesting turn by splitting itself into two mini-seasons of 13 episodes each, with the second one occasionally being advertised as the sixth season.

Part one of the fifth season, ''Total Drama All-Stars'', not only contains 14 of the most iconic contestants returning from previous four seasons, but also has a Heroes vs. Villains setup. Also, like the previous season it takes place at Camp Wawanakwa, the only difference is that the island's been cleaned up since the end of ''Revenge of the Island'' and is (mostly) toxic waste free once more. Unlike the previous seasons, this one debuted in the United States on Cartoon Network first, coming on September 10, 2013.

The third season, ''Total Drama World Tour'', has 15 of the old contestants, as well as 3 brand-new ones, traveling to different locations all around the world and bursting into impromptu musical numbers when mandated by Chris. This season premiered on June 10, 2010, once again in Canada.
