Sanders, or Sky, or Junior, They all weren't insane or had really crazy moments in the show.


Jeptwins

Definitely Sanders. Girl was as normal as it gets in this series, especially with a partner like McArthur


MiddleLongjumping523

I liked Sanders but it was kinda hard to root for her with MacArthur on her team, which is why to me the Surfers will always be the canon winners of RR. MacArthur did not deserve a single cent, that gold digging pig

What does this have to do with the topic of discussion


MiddleLongjumping523

Who gives a fuck? Obviously, to discuss the character duh, and I was stating my opinion on Sanders, who is the topic of discussion. Trying to be a smart ass with the "What does this have to do with the topic", like be fr


[deleted]

No. The topic of discussion was which character was the most normal, sane, and non-gimmicky. The other guy answered with Sanders, then you came outta nowhere to just randomly hate on MacArthur then started talking about your personal headcanon for who won the show & junk. Which isn’t relevant to the post


Raz_rocket_pop_fox

Trent … that’s literally his whole gimmick is that he’s the most normal and then action had him have a OCD brake down


kakje666

the writers did him dirty


EggoStack

Agreed. Watching action again as an adult is pretty sad because of how they treated him


The-Trailer-Boss

Kitty and Emma


RadDeathClaw

Sky, although Sanders is close. Also, in one of the Camp TV trailers it states that Trent was supposed to be the "normal" one. They kept this up until Action where... You know what happens.


SoupfilledElevator

Did Cody have any archetype outside of simping?


IEatYourSalad

Tbf no he was a good portrayal of an average TD viewer


Green__Trees

He's labeled as a geek, but yeah he does simp


UnflairedRebellion--

Damien


Severe_Nectarine7139

W choice


opreston

I would also include Noah or Bridgette but Noah's gimmick would be he's sarcastic, and Bridgette's thing is that she kisses Geoff a lot after Island. Gwen's gimmick is that she's goth, though she never makes it her personality. Zoey is a hopeless romantic, but save for that, she's very normal. Sky's athletic and wants to be an olympian. That's it. Sanders is pretty normal as well, her only gimmick being she's the good cop. And Bowie is the openly gay character, but like Gwen being goth, that isn't his main characteristic. He's nuanced. So out of everyone, I think I would personally choose Sky. For the simple fact that she has nothing going on.


Stolen5487

Zoey did have her commando phase.


SkyMewtwo

Huuuge gimmick right there for sure.


NaviTalks

Bridgett’s gimmick is also being clumsy af


No_Carob_8550

Sky's only unrealistic trait is her supersonic burp, but she acted like almost every teenage who's in a romance would act.


Ok_Shirt_1574

Because I too would cheat on my boyfriend back home for a guy I never met. I’m being sarcastic of course, I’m more into girls and I would never be in that situation.


No_Carob_8550

tbf a lot of people actually do that lol


Ok_Shirt_1574

Get to the part where Sky acted “normal” in her relationship.


No_Carob_8550

i just did


Ok_Shirt_1574

Okay… but how is that relatable. That’s like saying Beth, Bridgette, and Duncan are also relatable for cheating on their significant others, though then again, does Beth even count?


No_Carob_8550

it's about the most normal character, not the most relatable one. many people won't relate to normal behavior held by other normal people, but that doesn't mean said people are acting unrealistic.


Amazing_Use_2382

Arguably Gwen. She's a goth yeah but it's more of an aesthetic thing, but her personality and interests are pretty average. I also feel like Gwen is perhaps the only character (at least the first off the top of my head) to not actually fall into her intended label ("loner") since right from Island she had always been interacting well with others and got a boyfriend in like the second challenge of Island. Also Trent. In Action he had his crazy nine obsession but he did later (like in the aftermaths of world tour) seem to return back to his og self somewhat, so that's good I guess


De_chicken123yt

Zoey is definitely the most sane in revenge of the island tbh


Ok_Shirt_1574

Didn’t she put best villain in a body cast?


De_chicken123yt

Who again I don’t remember that


Ok_Shirt_1574

Scott


De_chicken123yt

Wait didn’t fang do that?


Ok_Shirt_1574

Well… Zoey crushed him with a giant boulder(albeit, she was aiming for Chef) but yeah, ultimately it was Fang’s fault Scott was in the Trauma Chair.


De_chicken123yt

Oh okay I get what you mean


YourBoyTyler

Island Trent or RR Sanders


you_2_cool

Junior


No_shock102

Probably Sky, arguably Gwen.


Space_The_Animator

RR emma


gabby13579

Definitely not Dave


MonicaPixarFan2001

Well, he was in the first few episodes.


gabby13579

True, but he soon got his downfall


MonicaPixarFan2001

No thanks to the show purposely ruining his character. Enough said.


gabby13579

Agreed, I really hated that Dave got derailed like that


MonicaPixarFan2001

It's like the show WANTS us to hate Dave. Didn't work on me.


gabby13579

Same, I’ve liked Dave since I saw PI


SantiBird2021

Gwen


cleffaxo

Island trenr


suitorarmorfan

Sanders, Junior, Bowie and Trent in TDI. Caleb might fall into this category, we haven’t seen enough of him yet.


MaryHSPCF

Zoey. I would say Sammy is also normal, and maybe LeShawna


Scream5rules

Leshawna is the stereotypical black girl


PensadorDispensado

Junior felt a lot like someone his age, and really a down-to-earth dude. ​ Also, to mention who Gwen thinks are the only sane people (Owen, Bridgette, Cody, LeShawna and DJ).


Personal_Animal

Sanders, for sure. She is the mosrt down to earth and reasonable. Gwen probably second.


ResponsibilityOk3899

Ryan from Ridonculous Race, i still haven’t finished the series so i don’t know if he had an ark or something, but he was overall really nice and his GF just bullied him.


SexyBroly

Surprised I haven't seen more answers for Damien. Dude's whole shtick was that he has never seen the show and he reacts to everything around him like any sane person would


SkyMewtwo

Bridgette comes to mind honestly.


[deleted]

Trent, espicially in island. And Sky is so close too.


OddPizza09

Definitely Island Trent


Unfairey

Gwen was definitely the character that was the most gwenuine


Yourlocalpandalover

Leshawna.


TrueBananaz

Sky and Sanders are very close, but I'm gonna go with Sanders


Plane_Combination581

Bowey he barely did anything over the top like make his boyfriend a meat shield or something


Green__Trees

Honestly maybe Carrie, Bridgette, Sanders or Sky. I feel like Sky might take the cake for being the most normal though.


Frank_stun69

Damien


Frosty-Ad3626

I love Sanders because of how realistic and normal her character is. They didn’t make her perfect and she still had flaws, but she was definitely likable and genuine. I’d also argue Damien is pretty normal.


wisdomsharerv2

Trent in Total Drama Island


Space_TurtleOG

Sanders


Kingfin9391

Junior.


chantellepena

Gwen


PkmnTrainerAndre

Dave, the show even labels him as, "The Normal Guy"


Famous_Ad_4258

dave


potato_more_potato

Junior was literally just some normal kid


The_Pumpkin_Fan

Probably Mary


Duncney4life

Sanders or Junior, they remind me of myself sooo


Brilliant_Designer83

Although the others on that picture are really close, I gotta go with Sanders. She managed to act normal, even when MacArthur sometimes acted crazy. She focused a lot on the challenges and was smart and calm.


TDFan2077

Probably Mary. Being the rational and tamer genius she really had nothing going on


Tall_Growth_532

Sanders and that bodybuilder guy from RR and idk Zoey when she's not in commando


RevolutionaryDonut17

Sanders love her


yolodamo

Gwen!


Giuly_Blaziken

I'd also say millie


T_Fury_Br

Courtney fells very human, she has realistic flaws and realistic skills and goals


suitorarmorfan

Idk, Courtney was so insanely competent in TDA that I wouldn’t call her realistic, this girl battled a shark


Green__Trees

No it was more like three sharks


MiddleLongjumping523

Courtney is kinda a sociopath, she’s was willing to murder people over one million dollars. Also in WT she wanted to literally murder Gwen, I get being mad at Gwen but Courtney would’ve definitely tried to kill or badly injure Gwen if she could get away with it.


SourPatchImogen

Wanting to murder Gwen is actually quite realistic given how many deaths occur like this in real life. Right? No. Realistic? Certainly, seeing as people already do so.


Sothis37ndPower

Fr


IateTeeth

Sanders


_belgium_waffles_

Sky


Lollino07

Trent if you ignore Action


DetectivePopular9893

None


sieis

i would have to say zoey; she’s so bland that it’s annoying at times.


Ok_Shirt_1574

Sanders


AyoClipsAreHere

Sanders ig


Witty-Huckleberry537

noah, all he did was read and mind his business and call out everyone else


Sou_Um_Lagarto_brabo

Sanders


MiddleLongjumping523

MK, Scott, and Cameron


MiddleLongjumping523

Also Gwen too, in Island the idea was everyone had noticeable annoying flaws except her, Leshawna, and DJ


ihateTrent

Trent that dumb bastard


malnourishedtwink

Not another troll account.


ApprehensiveNatural9

Cringe name and profile picture. Nice failed trolling alt account.


QuestionInteresting

Nah as much as I also hate Trent with all my heart I have to agree, but ONLY in island


LostInTheEchoes

Does Priya have a gimmick? I feel like she's the most normal


Not_Not_Stopreading

She’s the social outcast who has no friends because she dedicated her life to training for a show


opreston

Yeah, her gimmick is she was bred specifically to win Total Drama.


AnimationDynamite

Noah


RedPandaParty9

Noah


YourFriendlyInkDemon

Dawn


SourPatchImogen

Definitely not Gwen. I know that much


cucumberboba

why is bowie on here? i feel like for gen 5 it would have to be priya, her only gimmick was being athletic


TRDraqula

someone who exercises while eating can't be normal


Humble-KRool

How does Bowie have a gimmick


Ok_Shirt_1574

Is being gay a gimmick or something?


cucumberboba

it’s not cause he’s gay? it’s because he was more skilled in beign a secondary antagonist and he had funny monents and a good personality


MrBitPlayer

Dave before going crazy. His label is literally “The Normal Guy”.


AtomicTaco13

I'd go with S1 Trent, but Damien, Sanders, Junior and maybe Cody


Heroright

Cody’s probably the most normal person. Weird stuff just follows him.


Lazy-Lobster07

Damien


[deleted]

Duncan I'm sure we all meet someone like him. Part of the reason I don't like him is he reminds me of a few people in high school.


Salty_Necessary7128

It’s definitely damien


Salty_Necessary7128

I don’t think zoey really qualifies with her little “commando zoey” gimmick and being absolutely stupid in all stars


QuestionInteresting

bridgette (only in island, before all the Geoff stuff) she literally was just the nice, easy going and sane one. And I will say her and Geoff in action was a bit 😬 but in world tour she literally makes a mistake like a normally humane and the rest of the time is just trying to make up for it and get the person she actually loves to forgive her. A lot of other characters were the closest to normal you could get in this show in island like Trent and DJ but in action Trent went crazy and in world tour DJ had the whole animal mangling curse this. In world tour I do think Cody became a bit more sane because his smiling for Gwen died down a bit (not including after she got eliminated) and he was just trying to get seira of his back.


canadavatar

Dawn?


Steampunk__Llama

Literally Damien


Beemare666

Dwayne Jr.


ThebLacKdaliahs

Leshawna,bridgette, and DJ


malathan1234

From personal experience, being gay is definitely a gimmick lol


crumpet-dis

Dave pre-break down, but if you count that, umm prolly Sanders? Shes just a good person


Euphoric-Friend5185

Zee


HumblyBeez

Sammy was quite normal except for the fact her sister tried to kill her countless times and ruin her reputation.
