Welcome back to Character Appreciation, a blog series that will run for the whole year alongside Project 10. Each week we'll take a look at one Total Drama character, what we like and dislike about them, how they've grown, and what we hope to see from them in the future. I'm Glenn31, and this week, I'm coming in slightly late with an analysis on The Nice Guy Gamer, Sam!
Overview[]
Sam first appeared in Total Drama Revenge of the Island. Though not one of the season's big characters, he did get some focus in the episodes he was in. His story mainly focused on his crush and eventual relationship with Dakota, but also on his part in Scott's alliance. Sam may not have been the winner, but he did leave the competition with the consolation prize of a 50-foot mutant girlfriend, so good for him I guess.
Sam made a return in All-Stars, though only lasted 3 episodes and didn't serve much of a purpose. I honestly don't really know what to say about it :/
Opinions[]
For me, Sam is a character I don't really have any strong feelings on. He's only competed in a handful of episodes and his plots didn't really develop him much as a character. I really didn't think he deserved to return as an All-Star, seeing as there were tons more characters from TDRI that deserved it more, like Brick, Anne Maria or Dawn.
Best Season: Total Drama: Revenge of the Island
Best Episode: Runaway Model
Best Moment: Making bird calls to get Scott's attention
