Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race (also known as Total Drama: Ridonculous Race) is an upcoming Canadian animated reality television series which lampoons the conventions commonly found in reality television. The show is a spin-off of the original Total Drama series created in 2007. The series is created by Fresh TV Inc. and distributed by Cake Entertainment and is the second series created as part of the greater Total Drama franchise. The style of this series is direct parody of The Amazing Race. The series will premiere on the Canadian cable television specialty channel, Teletoon in mid-to-late 2015, and is currently airing on Cartoon Network in the United States starting September 7, 2015. Like the original series, this series will comprise 26 episodes per season.

Plot

The series will be based on The Amazing Race and will loosely parody the reality series. It will take place around the world and feature pairs of contestants, rather than teams, in the style of the reality series it is parodying.

The first season of The Ridonculous Race is expected to consist of mostly all new characters, with four characters returning from the original Total Drama series. All characters will be split into 18 teams of two, and must complete challenges around the world to win a one million dollar prize.

Racers will visit a different country in every episode and perform in "legs" while the team to finish in last place gets eliminated. In each of the 26 different locations, each racer must go to a "Don Box" to receive clues that let them decide which challenge they want to perform in.

Cast and characters

The new host, Don, will be voiced by Terry McGurrin. The rest of the voice actors and their characters are listed below:

Production

Production commenced on January 1, 2014, and it is scheduled to conclude on October 30, 2015. Alex Ganetakos is producing the show, Terry McGurrin is writing the screenplay, and Chad Hicks is directing.

Casting

Even though some of the characters from the main series will make appearances, the spin-off series will primarily have a new cast. The spin-off series will be a "Buddy Comedy" and will include 36 characters (18 teams of two), four which are from the original series (Owen, Noah, Geoff, and Leonard) and the rest brand new characters. Kristin Fairlie, the voice actor for the character Bridgette from the original series, is set to voice one of the new contestants, Carrie. Scott McCord (voice of characters Owen and Trent in the original series) as well as Carter Hayden (voice of Noah in the original) were also revealed to be returning to the cast, and were seen in the recording studio together. It was later confirmed that the actors were indeed going to voice the characters Owen and Noah. It was eventually revealed that the first pair will be Carrie and her best friend Devin, who is played by Jeff Geddis. In February, the second pair was revealed: Stephanie and Ryan. The two are voiced by Nicki Burke of Dead Rising 2 and Joseph Motiki, from Rescue Heroes. In a new promotion by Cake Entertainment, Geoff was also revealed to be among the returning cast, teamed up with Brody, one of his friends from home. The father-son team of Dwayne and Dwayne Jr. was also revealed.

In June, a pair of goths called Ennui and Crimson, and Mary and Ellody, two close friends who are dubbed the "Geniuses", were revealed. A week later, the fourth pair to be released are Emma and Kitty, who are Asian sisters with opposite personalities, referred to as the "Sisters". A week later, another team was confirmed; Chet and Lorenzo, known as "the Stepbrothers". Next to be revealed are twins Mickey and Jay, called "the Adversity Twins", who are plagued with countless phobias, allergies, injuries, disorders, and ailments. The rest of the teams were all revealed shortly thereafter.

Setting

Many countries and their geographic elements will be drawn and animated when used as settings for the whole series. A different country will be used for each episode. The starting point shown in the first episode will be the city of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, while characters will then travel to many locations. The countries that are going to be used in the series for the characters to visit are: Argentina, Australia, the Bahamas, Brazil, China, Finland, France, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Mexico, Morocco, New Zealand, Romania, Russia, Vietnam, Zimbabwe, the United Arab Emirates, and the United States. They are also going to enter the Arctic Circle at some point as well as going back to Canada.

Media

A video game is being developed that will allow players to use any of the series' 36 characters and race them in short endless running type games.
