Beardo (Total Drama)

Beardo is one of the contestants of Total Drama: Pahkitew Island. He’s the guy that does sound effects and is the first one to be eliminated in this season.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) He is a very useless and forgettable contestant, since he spends the majority of the time making sound effects.
 * 2) Speaking of which, making sound effects most of the time is very annoying, which is what annoyed Dave.
 * 3) He freaked out everyone on the plane with his beatboxing.
 * 4) He also made a sound effect to frame Sugar for farting, and for the many times the unlikable Sugar farted in this season, this was one of the times she actually didn’t.
 * 5) He didn’t collect any supplies during the first half of the very first challenge, all he did was a slow motion movement, and he got easily hit by Chef’s tennis blaster.
 * 6) He also just makes noises to try to intimidate the other team, but it’s pointless.
 * 7) He honestly just feels like cannon fodder, as he just comes and then goes and we never see him again.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Passable character design.
 * 2) The sound effects he makes sound very real, which is impressive. He would make a very good sound effects guy.
 * 3) Clé Bennett did a decent job voicing him during the only times he actually speaks, which are his audition tape and when he’s shot off the island by the Cannon.
 * 4) He admitted that he’s shy in his audition tape, so that at least explains why he made noises around his teammates since he just meet them, even if this didn’t work out in his favor.
 * 5) He thankfully only physically appeared in one episode and never appeared again.

Trivia

 * Beardo is one of two contestants from the third generation cast with facial hair, with the other being Shawn.
 * As of now, Beardo is tied with Staci for the lowest amount of participation of any character in the series, competing in only one episode.
 * Unlike Staci however, Beardo has not physically appeared in any episodes aside from his debut, making him the only contestant to appear in one episode of the series.
 * Beardo is one of three contestants to have never outranked another contestant, with the others being Staci, and Ezekiel.
 * He pronounces his name as "Bee-Air-Dough" in his audition tape while others tend to pronounce it as "Beard-oh". However, Shawn pronounces it as the former in Lies, Cries and One Big Prize.
 * Beardo was mistakenly listed as a member of Pimâpotew Kinosewak on his online bio.
