Cake Distribution has sold FRESH TV's TOTAL DRAMA ACTION, the spinoff to TOTAL DRAMA ISLAND (TDI), to Cartoon Network U.S. TDI has been a hit on Cartoon Network's Thursday night line-up and has developed a substantial following both on-air and online.
Viewers on the program's interactive Web site have created more than two million unique avatars within three months of the series premiere.
TOTAL DRAMA ACTION picks up where TOTAL DRAMA ISLAND left off and takes 15 of the original contestants to a new location -- a deserted film studio lot. Here our contestants will be exposed to new challenges with the chance to win an even bigger prize. New to the concept will be a number of talk-show episodes where former contestants and fans comment on the competition. TOTAL DRAMA ACTION was created by FRESH TV's Tom McGillis and Jennifer Pertsch and is commissioned by TELETOON Canada. TOTAL DRAMA ACTION is currently in production and premiers in 2009.
