Character Eliminations

Character elimination videos are a series of videos typically made with Vyond that are heavily inspired by Survivor and other shows that were inspired by it, namely the Total Drama series and Battle for Dream Island. The typical format of the videos consist of contestants completing challenges for rewards and immunity to elimination, which is done via votes by the other contestants or viewers, or surviving on a stranded island providing themselves with resources.

Why They're Atrocious

 * 1) As with many other Vyond videos, character elimination videos tend to be very repetitive and biased based on how much the uploader likes or dislikes the character in question. For example, characters that the uploader hates, such as characters from "baby shows" like Caillou or The Teletubbies, are usually among the first to be eliminated.
 * 2) They feel like soulless ripoffs of Survivor, the Total Drama series, and BFDI, as they hardly do much to make them stand out from all three shows except for having random characters tossed in.
 * 3) Whenever a character costs their team the challenge, they will usually be given a "vote me out" sign, which is an incredibly unfair disadvantage considering that the uploader is basically telling viewers who to vote to be eliminated from the game.
 * 4) They also will put in more penalties like a extra amount of votes and a disadvantage if the targeted person some how is not eliminated.
 * 5) The penalties at time make no sense, like getting penalized just for yelling at the host.
 * 6) The challenges are either to easy or require barely any effort, a couple example's include.
 * 7) Eating a giant piece of food/drink
 * 8) Going inside a store and buying the host an item.
 * 9) Crossing a bridge
 * 10) Building a Snowman
 * 11) The challenges are mostly skipped completely after the host says GO!
 * 12) Sometimes there are no challenges, making the eliminations pointless.
 * 13) Most of them use the text-to-speech voices provided by Vyond instead of using sentence mixing or actual voice acting.
 * 14) When images of characters are used, the uploader may use an image of a character that does not have the background removed, which looks lazy and jarring when compared to other character images that have transparent backgrounds.
 * 15) Some of them also include interns, which are characters that get killed.
 * 16) To make point #7 worse, some of the interns are CHILDREN.
 * 17) Some of them have a rushed finale, to where they eliminate all but 2 contestants when they still had alot of them in the game, not only is it lazy, but also unfair to everyone still in the game.
 * 18) All of the contestant lack any kind of devolpment or interaction with others, making it more bland and less interesting show.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Some character elimination videos can be actually rather well done and original.
 * 2) Some videos feature actual voice acting as opposed to text-to-speech voices.
