Chris McLean stood in position on what used to be called the Dock of Shame back in season one, smiling his hostly smile just as always. He straightened his shirt and fixed a strand of his hair one last time before the cameras started rolling. "Aaaaaand this season is a go! You're on, Chris." Said one of the cameramen, giving an obvious clue that Chris is okay to introduce the season and start the first episode.

"Last season on Total Drama!" He said, then paused for a brief moment before continuing. "Fourteen campers duked it out on our brand new island, Pahkitew. In the season filled with some of the weirdest contestants yet, many weirdos fell short of the million. Beardo, the unpopular beatboxer. Leonard, the LARPer extraordinaire. Max, the living incarnation of cliché evil genius from movies. And Jasmine, Australian survivalist. But in the end, zombie conspiracy theorist Shaun walked away with the million dollars."

Chris looked directly into the camera now. "This season, we return to where it all started. Again. Many thought Wawanakwa was blown up in season 5... And they're right. We rebuilt-slash-restored a slightly unstable rebirth of the island, and now contestants are in for a huge awakening. We're starting off this season with one wave of campers, then bringing in another wave shortly after. The frst wav of contestatnts is arriving right now.

For viewers at home, the camera switched over to a boat that just stopped ar the dock. "First up, Ned DeRosario!" Chris exclaimed, as a scraggly blonde-headed teen stepped off the boat.

Ned stepped off the boat and spoke after standing next to Chris. "Y'all get ready to see my crazy wicked talents!"

"Can't wait Ned. Next up, Violet Miklos! And boy, look at her hair!" Chris chuckled as a girl with blue hair stepped out of the boat, blushing with embarassment. "It's not too bad, is it?!" She said nervously. As Chris continued to laugh, Vi walked over and stood quietly next to Ned.

"Up next, Sam Woodward and Eilif Markham!" Chris announced dramatically, then waited for the two to come out. He chuckled in anticipation of today's challenges.
