Now in All Stars, it was revealed that 1) Courtney did felt hurt about Gwen betraying her in the 1st episode and later on said it yet again that her supposed friendship with her really did hurt her the most. 2) Duncan was using Gwen all this time just to get a reaction from Courtney. I’m not saying that he didn’t genuinely like Gwen, but like she said he was still obsessed with her. I honestly, think it was really just getting Courtney’s reaction of hate out of her since she didn’t give two shits about him. 3) Gwen obviously tried to sweep the situation under the rug by stating so nonchalantly that she basically didn’t cheat or didn’t took part in any wrongdoing which didn’t make sense. Obviously, you’re getting hated on or attacked in a way because you did something wrong. Period. No excuses. So don’t come at me with that bullshit about you not doing anything when everyone saw you. She obviously had to beg forgiveness or appease her or make it up to her—or whatever!—because she now knows that she betrayed her. And Courtney had every right to not easily forgive her because Gwen did the foulest thing that she could do to a friend: get in between her and her boyfriend. Duncan obviously seemed suspicious about handling the situation with the both of them so don’t give me that ridiculous line about Courtney trying to break them up since she barely even interacted with Duncan or even tried to intervene in his new relationship! You seem to be very oblivious to fact that she had a whole year to move on from her past relationship with Duncan.
Oh, it’s coming up in TDAS? Please. Courtney (and Gwen) made it known that her friendship with Gwen was more important than Duncan since she had a year to think about it. Oh, I just love how you bring up some of the reactions that Courtney had right after she found out about the betrayal. What the hell did you expect? “Oh, Duncan and Gwen are involved with each other? And they had the audacity to do that behind my back and not tell me? Oh, well! It’s no big deal. I shouldn’t have the ability to feel any hurt since for some reason I have no heart to break. They should be happy together!” The obvious reaction to someone getting cheated on consists of that person being hurt and the reaction depends on the person. If that’s how she dealt with trying to get over it, then so be it! She had all that time until TDAS to move on how she dealt it with was expectable, “but that’s just me.” At least she didn’t commit murder.
My reaction to the aftermath of Courtney and Gwen’s friendship consists of pure shock and hate. It makes no sense to have their interactions become one the biggest plots of the season and to have it trashed about all of a sudden because having her be her TDA Self seemed to be no big problem to the writers. You have Courtney 1) Upholding a friendly conversation with Gwen (no signs of her faking it or trying to plot her elimination), 2) Saying that if she doesn’t win, she hopes that Gwen wins instead (even meaning it) 3) Complimenting her (not faking it) 4) actually showing her that she puts her friendship with Gwen first than Scott’s, 5) actually teaming up with Gwen and is willingly planning on making it to the finals with her and so much more that aren’t as noticeable to me like, the one’s I’ve stated because let’s face it Courtney done some bad things in the past.
So when episode 11 came around and I see Courtney being jealous of Gwen and Zoey’s friendship, making a ridiculous chart, and plotting to win on her own yet again, I became so pissed off! First of all writers, why the hell would you write Courtney being jealous of her friend being friends with someone else? You didn’t write Courtney being jealous of Bridgette when she had a full on conversation with Leshawna and Gwen! And that’s was her only real friendship at the time, too. So writing that was some complete fuckery! Second, her making a chart as some attempt to let the other contestants use something against her just baffles me. “Oh, she drew on tail on me!” That was dumbest thing to ever get people to only dislike her even more! And of course, letting her use that tired-ass “I want to win” bit to start off her short tirade about her winning and about the contestants. And of course, the majority of us who believed that producers would actually catch Courtney a break would think to have let Courtney finally learn her lesson about the things she’s done, but no, just let her revert to old petty things and call it a day since we want to eliminate her. Yes, I wanted her to win, but I would have no problem with Courtney being eliminated and still be on good terms with the people she’s had a good interaction with. That’s all! It’s so simple. Then, they could just end her story there and be done with it! But, no someone just had to fuck it up with Courtney reverting back past obsessions of winning. She did not act like that for the majority of the season since there were big events that had changed her. Why mess it up??? Naww, I’m done. She could never catch a break.
Again, I'm going to iterate how the writing this season is horrid, and Courtney feeling more hurt by Gwen, and Gwen only, is just so cliche. I will never understand how both of them valued a "friendship" that came from interior motives, over a full blown relationship with a guy for how many seasons. Courtney never trusted anyone.....but she trusted Gwen? The writing is lacking, and this right there screams ridiculousness. As for Duncan using Gwen for the entire time.....yeah....no. I'm not going to let some bullshit scene of Duncan's "random 1 episode obsession" with Courtney ruin my otp. I think Duncan missed the attention, period. He wasn't getting anything from Gwen, so he went back to Courtney. I just find it humorous that Duncan had some obsession with Courtney for one episode, and then never acted again on it. Was the point just to break up DxG? Clearly it was. And I find it even more hilarious that Duncan would then still be obsessed by the girl he seemed to hate in the previous season.
As for Gwen's weird ass statements......I don't get the writing. The writers must be trying to show that DxC was an on-off relationship, and when it was on for Courtney, it was off for Duncan, or some other stupid shit like that. I don't get it.... and I actually don't even care anymore. The cheating thing was last season, and every character has moved on from it.....well, maybe not Courtney yet. Courtney still finds Gwen devilish, at least by her chart pic of Gwen. I think it was great for Gwen to apologize, and it actually was very mature. However, I hated how the writers made Gwen physically beg for it. If Courtney didn't want to forgive her, or trust her, then that would have been fine too. I just hated how they made it a running gag for Gwen to try and appease Courtney, and then unintentionally do something bad to Courtney, and then have Gwen trying to fix things even more. It was ridiculous.
And no....I'm not oblivious to anything. I heard rumors of a love triangle before tdas aired, so I figured that Courtney might still have some unreserved feelings for Duncan, or hell, she might have wanted them broken up. Good God.....you can't even write speculations on here anymore. -____-
And yes, I brought up Courtney's reactions because it was relevant to my speculation. If Courtney was still pissed, like she seemed to be in the aftermaths when she childishly sang about them and made fun of them.......then yeah, she might have wanted to break them up. Maybe not for her to jump back with Duncan, but just to end their relationship. A scorned woman is a powerful thing.....and that's all I was stating.
But again, all of this irrelevant considering what has happened thus far in the competition. It turns out that Courtney and Gwen's friendship didn't last, and although Courtney liked Gwen, winning meant more to her. Shitty writing for her character development, but it fit in with her TDA behavior, so no surprises there. It's a shame though that they ended up making Courtney the bad guy who used her "best friend" to get ahead. The writers must love making both Gwen and Courtney look like the worst best friends to each other.
And I wasn't saying you were trying to ruin anything.....just so we're clear. I'm stating that the random "obsession" plot wasn't going to ruin my faith in my OTP (one true pairing), which is just code for die-hard ship. And secondly, I was stating that the obsession was random. He uttered Courtney's name two times.....both when he was annoyed that she still wasn't pissed at him.....but only Gwen. And then in episode 5, he only cares about Courtney, and not his gf of one year...? Yeah....the writing really sucked there. Quite frankly, the writing sucked all around. I think the DxG break up should have been built up more, and I definitely feel that Duncan should have just left both girls alone.... it would have settled better with the DxG fans. But then, the inconsistencies were everywhere this season.....and nothing made much sense. I'm pretty much done with Total Drama. The old cast was seriously ruined..... I hope Pakithew Island is an improvement.
And no, your length in response and detail have nothing to do with the term "half-cocked." -___- And no offense, but that's awfully presumptuous to assume that I'm sure of myself in my comments. My comment was yet again, another opinionated response. But hey, that's the trouble with writing.... the tone is hard to decipher.
PI better be an improvement. Total Drama is seriously going downhill......and fast. They seriously need to fix things. I've seen the new characters and the first storyboard. It actually looks like an improvement. So hopefully, that will be good. Yeah....OTP is a great shorthand! xD
