I wouldn't be mad if Bridgette didn't win, but I just want her to get far into the game! She is one of my favorite characters!

Bridgette is one of those characters that I think should have a bounce back to the top. But considering the fact about her constant love obsession with Geoff (that is still continuing right now I believe), she really did do a big boo-boo to her chances. I already knew in the beginning of TDA that if she continues to be all kissy kissy to her BF, she will be faced with a very low ranking, which she did being LAST! I'm glad to see her back in TDWT this time without Geoff. I believe 100% she can rise back from being last place, but I highly doubt she will win it all. Probably around the top 10.

i'm still rooting for Lindsay...but it would be cool for Bridgette or Cody to win. (but we really need a girl to win this time!)

I have a feeling someone you wouldn't expect to win will win TDWT, that is what I am thinking.

Hi.. it's been a while since i last came here... xD

I dont know.. I think that anyone can win this season. Well if I could say the ones I'm certain that wont win.. would be Owen (went too far in both first and second seasons), Sierra (because she is new.. and she will probably receive a lot of screen time just for being new), alejandro (villain and new guy), Duncan (same as Owen), Harold (because i think he wont go that far).

But well we can imagine some reasons for Heather, Leshawna, Ezekiel and Gwen for not winning as well..

My guesses go for Cody, DJ, Lindsay, Izzy and Courtney.

Courtney winning?! (laughs butt off)

I'm going to go into a detailed prediction of this season. Starting with the first half: (Up to the merge)

Assuming that the teams are:

Team Amazon:
Cody
Sierra
Courtney
Heather
Gwen
Duncan (?)

Team 2:
Noah
Tyler
Izzy
Owen
Alejandro

Team 3:
Bridgette
DJ
Lindsay
LeShawna
Ezekiel
Harold

Who are most likely to make the merge? I am going to guess that they will merge at the Top 10. If that's the case, it would probably be 3 contestants from 2 teams and 4 contestants from the other. I think that that other will be either Team 1 or Team 2.

On Team Amazon, Cody and Sierra are in good shape. Cody is the only male on his team with the exception of Duncan who will likely be gone early. And Sierra is a new character. If only one other makes it, I predict Gwen. If two make it, I'd predict Gwen and Heather. I just think that Courtney's plot doesn't have enough left in it to get her nearly as far as in the past. It's a legitimate argument that she is a popular character but so was Gwen last season and they got rid of her early.

On Team 2, Alejandro and Izzy are fine for the same reasons as Cody and Sierra. Izzy is the only girl on her team and Alejandro is new. I think that Noah is fine because he's really popular and has a lot of character development coming his way. I actually predict Owen to leave from his team due to the fact that he's had so much screentime in the past and it's time for some others to shine. Now, Team 2 may be the team with 4 characters to make the merge. Personally, I predict that. If not, Tyler will be eliminated but it will be just before the merge so that he gets a chance to develop. But I don't think that he has the same potential as Cody, Noah, and Ezekiel. So if he does make it, he will be one of the first ones gone at the merge.

Team 3 clearly has 6 members. I think that Ezekiel is in good shape because it seems like they are trying to make us confused about him. But his voice actor apparently says that he is in. That looks really good for him staying in a while. If he stays in, it will be DJ that leaves instead so I can take him out of merge contention. I think that LeShawna and Harold will have a plot together at the beginning, but LeShawna will be voted off fairly early because she has had so much screentime and her plot is beginning to run out. I think that after her early elimination last season and without Geoff as a distraction, Bridgette will come back with a storm and possibly make it far. That leaves Harold and Lindsay. I imagine that there will be a balance of girls and guys for the Top 10. So if Heather makes the merge, Harold will as well. And if Tyler makes the merge, Lindsay will. (Ironic since both of those plots fit perfectly) But since I previously predicted that Tyler will barely edge it out, Lindsay will make the cut as well. And here is the prediction in shorter terms.

Cody
Sierra
Gwen
Alejandro
Izzy
Noah
Tyler
Ezekiel
Bridgette
Lindsay

Now on to the second half. Tyler and Lindsay were the two questionable ones for me to make the merge at all. So I predict them to leave first. Since the merge gives Alejandro the perfect opportunity to play up his role as a villain. So he decides to blindside someone from his team who trusted him and he gets Tyler voted out. Lindsay comes to her senses and Alejandro realizes that he isn't hypnotizing her anymore so he gets rid of her as well. The next 2 I see leaving are Gwen and Ezekiel. Gwen will have gotten enough screen time to make up for last season and please her fans, but not get close to the end again. Ezekiel pretty much made up for his last place finish and probably developed a solid plot, possibly with Izzy or Bridgette. I can't see him lasting past the Top 7. After Zeke, I think that it's Noah's time to go unfortunately. He gets a ton of fans from his sarcasm but I'm not sure if I see him having a big enough plot to contend for the win. This leaves the final 5:

Cody
Sierra
Izzy
Alejandro
Bridgette

Sierra and Cody's plot lasts a long time, but here is where it comes to an end. To even the numbers, a girl needs to leave here and the new characters can't stay a whole lot longer to be fair. So Sierra leaves. Alejandro leaves for that reason as well as the villain losing in the Final 3 would be way too predictable. This leaves Izzy, Bridgette, and Cody. I think that both girls could beat Cody to get a girl winner. I just think that Izzy is a little too much comic relief so she is the one that leaves. Cody vs. Bridgette

I think Bridgette wins. Even if the vote is close and Cody technically wins, I'd be surprised if they didn't rig it just a little bit to get a guy winner.

This will likely be far from the truth, but it's always fun to speculate!

The only thing that I disagree with you there, Cartoon, is Izzy. The only things I can imagine for her are leaving after Owen (probably right before or right after the merge, possibly even earlier), or as an excuse to have an all-girls final two with Bridgette, since they do need to make sure a girl wins.

The same might actually go for Bridgette herself, though: either she gets enough plot to capture the win, or goes early from her team by being charmed by Alejandro.

I also think that unless Gwen really gets involved in a love triangle with Cody and Sierra (which is likely), Heather will make it farther than her, although I doubt either will last long past the merge unless Heather really reforms.

The others I think you're right about: Harold and Leshawna are not going to make it very far, Duncan is almost definitely first out, and Noah won't make the final five but will be close.

Heather is definitely making the merge. So will Harold. After Harold has done his part in helping her Heather will leave. I have a feeling that Harold might be the hero this season and make it far enough to get revenge on Alejandro for eliminating Leshawna. As for Izzy, yea she's a goofball and she'll likely outlast everyone on her team. I think she will be in the finale with Cody who will be majorly cheered on by Sierra.

I'm in between Lindsay and Tyler making the merge or Heather and Harold. If it is the latter, I could see Heather's ranking be replaced with Gwen's.

And another possibility that could completely shift the direction of the season, would be a team change.

I'm not being blinded! Where's your proof that Harold goes or Izzy doesn't win? I'm just speculating. I'm also avoiding this thread this season so that I'm not spoiled for once.

yeah, i think once it airs I'll avoid this thread as well. I'd rather not know in advanced when somebody I like gets voted off.

Actually, it makes a bit of sense that Harold and Owen will be out relatively soon. Look at what happened to them in their last few episodes of TDA.

Harold got kissed by Beth. If that's not set up for the between-season special, I don't know what is. Now he's got a sort of love triangle - possibly quadrangle - which will give him a heavy plotline in the start of TDWT. Not to mention LeShawna's new crush on Alejandro, which can only fan the flames.

Owen, likewise. He started to LIKE being a bad guy. Now he can be an early antagonist for the start of TDWT. But, of course, he's on a team that's composed of his girlfriend, the long-term villain, and someone who's smart enough to see through him. He generates plot with almost everyone on his team.

In the start of TDA, who had the most plot? Trent and Gwen. There was a few throw-away eliminations as episodes passed and their plot built to a climax. But soon afterwords, they got voted off. New people got the plot spotlight in their absence. Then the new people got voted off. This cycle continued until the general plot focused on Courtney and Duncan. But, that wasn't until the final seven, I think.

Since Harold and Owen are set up to have a lot of plot at the beginning of the season, it makes sense that they would also get voted off soon. Of course, others may be eliminated before them (Zeke, Duncan) so they may have enough time to build up to a climax.

Oh please, Courtney and Duncan have stolen the spotlight starting Episode Twelve. But you're right; Harold has a lot of early-on plot, especially with LeShawna and Alejandro, and Owen could easily be a failure antagonist, or do something stupid like he usually does. In most of the shots both of them seem to get dragged around and hurt a lot. xD

I don't want to seem stupid, but has Total Drama World Tour started airing somewhere in the world yet?
