You can say that I'm a Zoey hater, but Zoey during TDRI had no development until her last two episodes, but that's because she snapped. The people I can say that developed were Lightning, Cameron, Mike, Dakota, Sam and Brick. Everyone else were very blan or just didn't do anything noticeable. Zoey, all season, just didn't do anything. She just moaned about how she thinks Mike didn't like her, how she had no friends, and just flew along to the finals. She let herself be abused and be pushed around by Scott and Jo. She never opened up to Mike until he was eliminated. Like couples in the last (Courtney/Duncan, Gwen/Trent, Lindsay/Tyler, Bridgette/Geoff, Leshawna/Harold, Alejandro/Heather, etc.), they opened up to one another but there was nothing for them. Honestly, as a Total Drama super fan, I can't remember anything noticeable for Zoey before her commando stunt. And that was a sign of development, the sign of her having enough of everyone on the show taking advantage of her. Zoey was very dull overall and she needed to do something that would make people take her serious. That's why I have hope for her in TDAS, but if she doesn't do anything as well, she's just meant to be dull.
