TitleDirected and written byOriginal release date
1"Take the Plunge" [d] Cary Huang & Michael HuangJanuary 1, 2010 (2010-01-01)

On the fictional continent of Goiky, twenty anthropomorphic objects--Pencil, Match, Flower, Ice Cube, Bubble, Pin, Blocky, Needle, Woody, Teardrop, Leafy, Tennis Ball, Snowball, Rocky, Eraser, Pen, Spongy, Firey, Coiny and Golf Ball--are interacting with each other in a grassland. A dark gray speaker box called the Announcer descends from the sky and announces the existence of Dream Island, an island designed to be the ultimate paradise, and that whoever owns the island can decide who is allowed onto it. He starts a contest for the island with the twenty objects as contestants.

The first challenge is to see who can stay on a balance beam the longest. Two of the objects, Pin and Leafy, win the first contest and get to organize the teams of the competition; the Squishy Cherries [e] and the Squashy Grapes. [f] The second contest is a race to make a boat and row it to the finish line across the Goiky Canal, which the Squishy Cherries win.
2"Barriers and Pitfalls"Cary Huang & Michael HuangFebruary 1, 2010 (2010-02-01)
Because Pin won the challenge for her team, she obtains a "Win Token", which allows her to halve her votes during the elimination ceremony, called Cake at Stake. Said ceremony is attended by the losing team's members. They get cake slices until there are none left, revealing the eliminated contestant, who will be treated with a vaguely described "TLC". Flower is eliminated with 4 votes, and though she attempts to murder the Announcer with an "Announcer crusher", the crusher explodes and she is sent away. The contest is an obstacle course, won by the Squashy Grapes. Needle obtains a Win Token for finishing the challenge first.
3"Are You Smarter Than a Snowball?"Cary Huang & Michael HuangMarch 1, 2010 (2010-03-01)
The Cake at Stake is key lime pie, and Spongy is eliminated with four votes. The contest is a quiz, which is initially won by the Squishy Cherries until it is revealed that Blocky and Pen cheated, giving the victory to the Squashy Grapes. Golf Ball obtains a Win Token for having the highest score on the test.
4"Sweet Tooth"Cary Huang & Michael HuangApril 1, 2010 (2010-04-01)
The Cake at Stake is ice, and Blocky is eliminated with six votes. The contest consists of two parts: to bake cakes that will be rated by Announcer, Flower, and a die, and to eat one hundred chocolate balls. The Squashy Grapes win in a tiebreaker, and Pin gains her second Win Token for having the highest scoring cake.
5"Bridge Crossing"Cary Huang & Michael HuangMay 1, 2010 (2010-05-01)
The Cake at Stake is an ice cream cake, and Woody is eliminated with 9 votes. The "TLC" makes its first physical appearance as a giant metal box called the Tiny Loser Chamber, and Woody is sent there. The contest is to cross a bridge. No one does, so a tiebreaker occurs, which the Squashy Grapes win. No one receives a Win Token.
6"Power of Three"Cary Huang & Michael HuangJune 1, 2010 (2010-06-01)

The Cake at Stake is cupcakes, and Pin is eliminated with 5 votes. The teams are temporarily split into five teams of three, and the contest is to get across three islands.

On island 1, the contestants are tasked with looking through safes to find rafts and paddles. Island 2 has ten keys hanging from poles, which are used to unlock a locked building on island 3. However, five of the keys are fake, forcing their holders to go back to island 2 and get another key. Coiny, Ice Cube, and Needle lose the contest, and Eraser, Firey, and Pen all get Win Tokens for finishing first.
7"Puzzling Mysteries"Cary Huang & Michael HuangJuly 1, 2010 (2010-07-01)
The Cake at Stake is key lime pie again, and Needle is eliminated with 12 votes, even after halving her votes to 6 with a win token. When the TLC does not close properly, Pencil points out that it has already reached its maximum capacity. Therefore, the Announcer decides that the winners get to take a contestant from the losing team, with no one getting eliminated. The contest is to solve a jigsaw puzzle, won by the Squashy Grapes. Per the Announcer's decision, Squashy Grapes choose Firey to switch to their team. No one receives a Win Token in this episode.
8"Cycle of Life"Cary Huang & Michael HuangAugust 1, 2010 (2010-08-01)
The contest is a race where each contestant has to carry one of their other team members, except for the last contestant, who does not carry anyone. The Announcer also promises a prize for the winning team, and that no one is eliminated again. Because the Squashy Grapes have more members than the Squishy Cherries at this point, five of them are chosen by the wheel to participate: Firey, Ice Cube, Leafy, Golf Ball, and Rocky. The Squashy Grapes win, and their prize is that they get to have an eliminated player on their team. No one receives a Win Token in this episode.
9"Insectophobe's Nightmare"Cary Huang & Michael HuangSeptember 1, 2010 (2010-09-01)

Blocky rejoins the game on the Squashy Grapes with 8 votes, which are then split into the Squashy Grapes (Blocky, Ice Cube, Leafy, Snowball and Teardrop) and Another Name (Coiny, Firey, Golf Ball, Rocky and Tennis Ball). Blocky receives a Win Token for rejoining.

A new elimination system is introduced, in which the two most voted contestants from the team that was last are voted on by the team that placed first; one contestant will join the winning team, and the other will be eliminated. The contest is a six-legged race, in which Squishy Cherries place first and Squashy Grapes in last.
10"Crybaby!"Cary Huang & Michael HuangOctober 1, 2010 (2010-10-01)
The Cake at Stake is modelling clay, with the bottom two being Teardrop and Snowball, at 5 and 18 votes respectively. Teardrop is eliminated from a 3-2 vote, with Snowball being moved to the Squishy Cherries. The contest, which is for each team to fill their tub as much as they can with tears, ends in a tie. The tiebreaker is a skiing contest in which the Squishy Cherries and Another Name are rolled into snowballs, needing an additional tiebreaker; a handstanding contest won by the Squishy Cherries. Eraser gains a Win Token for handstanding the longest.
11"Lofty"Cary Huang & Michael HuangNovember 1, 2010 (2010-11-01)

Beginning with this episode, the show would feature fan-made recommended characters from viewers, with Bomby being the first under this title.

The Cake at Stake is an imaginary cake, with the bottom two being Golf Ball, at 12 votes (6 after using her win token), and Rocky, at 15. Golf Ball is eliminated from a 0-6 vote, with Rocky moved to the Squishy Cherries. The contest is try to stay up in the air with balloons, which the Squashy Grapes win and Another Name lose. No one receives a Win Token in this episode.
12"A Leg Up in the Race"Cary Huang & Michael HuangDecember 1, 2010 (2010-12-01)

The Cake at Stake has no cake, with the bottom two being Tennis Ball and Coiny at 22 and 30 votes, respectively. Leafy picks Tennis Ball for the Squashy Grapes, eliminating Coiny. Announcer then breaks up the teams. The contest is to climb ladders. Everyone except for Tennis Ball goes to the top.

Because of the removal of teams, the point system is introduced. The bottom third of the leaderboard go to the Cake at Stake. Win Tokens are also removed, and in exchange, Firey, Pen, Blocky, and Eraser earn 15 points for each token they had. The contestants also gain points from the contest, and lose points for each vote they have received at past Cake at Stake ceremonies.
13"Don't Lose Your Marbles"Cary Huang & Michael HuangJanuary 1, 2011 (2011-01-01)
The Cake at Stake is fish, with the bottom third being Snowball, Bubble, Rocky, and Tennis Ball. Snowball is eliminated with 47 votes. The contest is to find and bring a red ball to the Announcer. There are also maroon balls, which subtract points instead of adding them.
14"Half a Loaf Is Better Than None"Cary Huang & Michael HuangFebruary 1, 2011 (2011-02-01)
The Cake at Stake is fruitcake, with the bottom third being Match, Ice Cube, Rocky, and Tennis Ball. Match is eliminated with 66 votes. The eliminated contestants get a contest to carry loaves to their basket until the deadline, won by Spongy, who rejoins the competition and gains 38 points, one for each loaf of bread carried. The next contest is to jump over obstacles on a conveyor belt. Blocky and Bubble last the longest.
15"Vomitaco"Cary Huang & Michael HuangMarch 1, 2011 (2011-03-01)
The Cake at Stake is nickels, with the bottom third being Ice Cube, Leafy, Eraser, and Firey. Eraser is eliminated with 99 votes. There are two contests: to stay on floating islands in a giant barf bag, and to make a taco rated by the eliminated contestants. Pencil lasts the longest in the barf bag, and Spongy's taco receives the most likes from the eliminated contestants.
16"Bowling, Now with Explosions!"Cary Huang & Michael HuangApril 1, 2011 (2011-04-01)
The Cake at Stake is an explosive blueberry pie, with the bottom third being Pen, Bubble, and Rocky. Pen is eliminated with 144 votes. The contest is bowling, and everyone is sent to Cake at Stake besides Firey, who earned immunity by bowling a strike. Uniquely in this episode, contestants that knocked down any pins choose how they would like to subtract points instead of adding them.
17"The Reveal"Cary Huang & Michael HuangMay 1, 2011 (2011-05-01)
The Cake at Stake is knives, and Blocky is eliminated with 112 votes. The contest is to throw and catch frisbees as a pair, with a penalty if the pair does not finish before sunset. Leafy and Ice Cube fail to finish before the sunset. Announcer reveals that the contestants will vote on who is eliminated, and the viewers will instead vote on one of thirty fan-made characters ("recommended characters") to join the competition. The characters eligible for entry are 8-Ball, Balloony, Barf Bag, Basketball, Bell, Bomby, Book, Clock, Cloudy, David, Dora, Eggy, Evil Leafy, Fanny, Fries, Grassy, Marker, Naily, Nickel, Nonexisty, Pie, Pillow, Remote, Robot Flower, Roboty, Ruby, Saw, Taco, Tree and TV.
18"Reveal Novum"Cary Huang & Michael HuangJune 1, 2011 (2011-06-01)

The eliminated contestants plot their escape from the TLC, but the Announcer appears and tells them to stop planning. The Cake at Stake is a cracker, and Leafy and Tennis Ball tie for elimination with two votes. The tiebreaker is to jump over a gap, eliminating Tennis Ball who falls. David joins the game as the recommended character with 102 votes. The other recommended characters are sent to the Locker of Losers (LOL), a huge, navy blue box similar to the TLC, with a lock to prevent attempts of escape. [g]

The scoreboard gets downgraded, so it can only hold two-digit numbers. The contest is a staring contest, won by Pencil. While the staring contest is underway, the eliminated contestants attempt to escape the TLC, which backfires and they nearly drown in the river until they are saved by the sunrise. When points are given out, Pencil's score overflows, and she ends up in the bottom third.
19"Rescission"Cary Huang & Michael HuangJuly 1, 2011 (2011-07-01)

The Cake at Stake is shovels covered in mud. The bottom three are Spongy, Firey, and Pencil; Pencil is eliminated with 259 votes. From this point on, points no longer exist; contestants now obtain immunity by winning challenges.

The contest is to race on unicycles, won by Bubble, Rocky, and Firey. For winning first, Bubble is allowed to choose another contestant to have immunity, choosing Leafy.
20"Gardening Hero"Cary Huang & Michael HuangAugust 1, 2011 (2011-08-01)
The Announcer moves the competition to outer space due to "budget cuts". The Cake at Stake is ice cream cake again, with Spongy, Ice Cube, and David up for voting. David is eliminated with 331 votes. The contest is to get in a spaceship and shoot lasers at other contestants. Bubble wins, and once again picks Leafy to have immunity alongside her. Announcer invites the viewers to vote on an eliminated contestant to rejoin the game, while the non-immune contestants will be voted on by the previously eliminated.
21"The Glistening"Cary Huang & Michael HuangSeptember 1, 2011 (2011-09-01)
The contestants return to Earth, using Spongy as spaceship fuel. There is no Cake at Stake item; Ice Cube is the most voted to be eliminated. Flower rejoins the game with 205 votes. The contest is a long jump competition, won by Leafy, although she gives up her immunity to Spongy because she feels bad for having used him as fuel.
22"Don't Pierce My Flesh"Cary Huang & Michael HuangOctober 1, 2011 (2011-10-01)
The Announcer gets crushed by Spongy, so Firey and Flower bring out their personal speaker boxes to host. The Cake at Stake is "yoylecake" (a cake composed of fictional "yoyleberries", which makes bodies turn into metal when eaten), and Rocky is eliminated with 319 votes. The contest is to escape a volcano. The contestants all tie, so Firey and Flower's Speaker Boxes do a beauty contest. They declare their creators as the winners, giving Firey and Flower immunity.
23"Hurtful!"Cary Huang & Michael HuangNovember 1, 2011 (2011-11-01)
The Announcer gets recovered, more speaker boxes show up, and the Cake at Stake is cheese slices. Spongy is eliminated with 432 votes. The contest is to complete every previous contest in order from episode 1 to 22. Near the end, Bubble and Leafy argue about their friendship, and then Flower kills Leafy. Bubble then kills Flower and proceeds to win immunity. Firey is given a penalty (holding a sign asking the viewers to vote for him) for performing poorly during the challenge.
24"Insectophobe's Nightmare 2"Cary Huang & Michael HuangDecember 1, 2011 (2011-12-01)

Firey and Leafy hang out in the former's ferris wheel. However, Firey installed a lava fall on it. Unable to escape, Leafy is burned to death. She does not get recovered for Cake at Stake, as the Announcer sold the recovery centers due to "budget cuts". Firey does not believe him, so he bets his life savings. Announcer accepts the bet and tells Firey that the recovery centers really were sold.

Announcer abruptly cancels the show after seeing that they once again received a fewer vote total than the last few episodes. Flower throws a nest of bug eggs at the Announcer in anger, causing bugs to overwhelmingly infest the area, and everyone runs from the quickly-spreading swarm, attempting to save themselves. None of the contestants survive: Firey, the TLC prisoners, and all the recommended characters are devoured by the bugs, Flower gets hit by a meteor and falls into a canyon, and the Announcer pops Bubble when she finds out he made the bugs. The Announcer eventually reaches a button that deletes the bug swarm, and notices that David survived because he is immune to them. The Announcer continues the competition with clones of David posing as contestants and recommended characters. The Cake at Stake is red velvet cake, and Flower is eliminated with 524 votes. At that point, the contestants suddenly come back, all having faked their deaths. There is no contest, so the Announcer invites the viewers to vote who should win Dream Island. In addition, the Announcer promises that a second season will only happen if they receive 1,000 votes.

In the stinger, it is revealed that the Announcer bought new recovery centers for the final 3 and himself with Firey's life savings.
25"Return of the Hang Glider"Cary Huang & Michael HuangJanuary 1, 2012 (2012-01-01)

After releasing the eliminated contestants, the Announcer holds the final Cake at Stake for Bubble, Leafy and Firey. There were only 870 votes, which supposedly meant no Season 2 would occur. The cake is a Grand Cake, made up of all the previous cakes. Before the Announcer can declare the winner, Flower damages him, affecting his speech. The eliminated contestants have an opinion vote for which contestant in the finale they would like to win Dream Island. With 406 out of 870 votes, Firey wins the cake and Dream Island.

When choosing who gets to enter, Firey lets everyone in except for runner-up Leafy, who he excludes because he was hurt by her wanting to get off his ferris wheel. Angered, Leafy buys Dream Island from the Announcer, using a box of paper slips to give him a large sum of money to fully recover the speaker boxes' budget. When the other contestants find Dream Island suddenly missing, they head outside to search for it, while Tennis Ball, Match, Snowball and Woody are beamed up by the Announcer's UFO. After Bubble calls out Flower for her behavior, the latter destroys the recovery centers in a fit of rage and pops the former. She is in turn crushed to death by the UFO. It is also revealed that Woody died from fear of the UFO's gray color. The other speaker boxes thank Announcer for recovering their lost funds and they all leave on the UFO back to their home planet. When the contestants find out about Leafy stealing Dream Island, they threaten to kill her via Flower's announcer crusher. Before she is crushed, Firey swoops in using a hang glider and saves her, telling her that he values their friendship more than the island, as they fly away towards the sunset.

1"Yeah, Who? I Wanna Know"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary Huang & Michael HuangJune 29, 2012 (2012-06-29)

While being chased by everyone else, Leafy escapes into Yoyleland (where previously-seen "yoyleberries" come from) using a map, which Pin destroys, rendering Leafy unable to return. Sixty-two contestants are eligible for entry, including the 20 original contestants, the 30 recommended characters from "The Reveal", and 12 additional characters: Black Hole, Bottle, Bracelety, Cake, Donut, Firey Jr., Gaty, Gelatin, Lightning, Lollipop, Puffball and Yellow Face. [h] Twenty of these contestants qualify, as well as two chosen to automatically join, making the final total 22.

Originally, the contestants that were supposed to join were Bubble, Coiny, Firey, Flower, Golf Ball, Ice Cube, Leafy, Needle, Match, Pencil, Pin, Rocky, Spongy, Teardrop and Tennis Ball, alongside newcomers Bomby, Donut, Dora, Fries, Gelatin, Nickel and Ruby. However, since Bubble, Flower and Leafy are absent, they are disqualified and replaced with additional newcomers Book, Puffball and Yellow Face. Contestants who failed to debut are sent to the Tiny Loser Chamber.

TV, a previously recommended character, begins hosting this season. Teams form, with original contestants on one team and newcomers on the other. Donut notes that his team is smaller, and, after an argument with Pencil, he chooses Match to switch. It is then revealed that one can switch teams before the challenge begins. Match switches back, then everyone except Donut follows suit. Coiny then switches to Donut's team, and, through peer pressure, Pin switches as well. The challenge is a game of tug-of-war, which the smaller team quickly loses.

Instead of voting in the comments, viewers can like or dislike a contestant's video, with the most-liked getting to spin a prize wheel and the most-disliked getting eliminated.
2"Get Digging"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary Huang & Michael HuangAugust 1, 2012 (2012-08-01)
The smaller team is named W.O.A.H. Bunch, [i] and the larger team is dubbed Team No-Name. Coiny wins the prize with 448 likes, and Donut is eliminated with 573 dislikes. The Tiny Loser Chamber, with the newly eliminated Donut, is put inside the Locker of Losers. Coiny's prize is yoyleseeds. Teardrop is forced to switch to the smaller team, and the contest is to make "yoylestew", won by W.O.A.H. Bunch.
3"Insectophobe's Nightmare 3"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary Huang & Michael HuangAugust 15, 2012 (2012-08-15)
Puffball wins the prize with 387 likes, and Dora is eliminated with 347 dislikes. Puffball's prize is a personal speaker box, which becomes the host. Needle is forced to switch to W.O.A.H. Bunch, and the contest is to kill the bugs in the team's glass box, won by Team No-Name.
4"Zeeky Boogy Doog"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary Huang & Michael HuangNovember 1, 2012 (2012-11-01)
Teardrop wins the prize with 502 likes, though is also eliminated with 440 dislikes. Teardrop's prize was to choose between immunity into the final 15 or a "Hand-Powered Recovery Center" (HPRC), which can recover any contestant via turning a large hand crank; she chooses the HPRC. Bomby and Yellow Face switch to W.O.A.H. Bunch. They soon remember no one knows what happened to Dream Island after Leafy stole it from Firey when Ruby mentions it. The contest is to build a new Dream Island, which will be dubbed "Dream Island Again" and will be the season's prize. Team No-Name goes to Golf Ball's Underground Factory, and she uses Dream Sauce to create a magnificent new Dream Island Again. This catches the attention of Coiny, prompting him to throw Bomby into the factory and destroy the island. W.O.A.H. Bunch wins the contest, with their "Dream Island Again" being a poorly-made farm.
5a"Get in the Van"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary Huang & Michael HuangJanuary 2, 2013 (2013-01-02)

Leafy returns from Yoyleland, tired of eating Yoyleberries. After recovering the other contestants, she tries to reunite with Firey, but he denies having known Leafy; Gelatin squishes Leafy with a hammer. Aiming for Leafy, Pin accidentally throws a knife at Puffball Speaker Box, resulting in Firey bringing out his personal speaker box to host. With Book and Ice Cube planning to attend Match's dance party, Pin asks Ice Cube to swing with her; Book says no and Ice Cube agrees, and Pin accuses Book of preventing Ice Cube from voicing her own opinion. The Cake at Stake is chunks of Donut's corpse. Puffball wins the prize with 424 likes, and Match is eliminated with 426 dislikes, but Pencil saves her from being sent to the Locker of Losers. Puffball's prize is to choose a contestant to have their limbs removed, and she chooses Pin as revenge for stabbing her speaker box. Nickel and Spongy switch to W.O.A.H. Bunch, and Book, Ice Cube, Pencil, and Ruby make their own team, named FreeSmart. Bubble (who was recovered in the previous episode) and Match join as honorary members.

The contest is to reach the summit of the far-away Yoyle Mountain, in Yoyleland. FreeSmart gets in their own personal vehicle, the FreeSmart Van, Team No-Name gets on Puffball, and W.O.A.H. Bunch travel on foot. Gelatin pushes Golf Ball, Tennis Ball, and Rocky off to make space, and they fall into the "Evil Forest", where they are pursued by Evil Leafy (a red, hostile version of Leafy), until they are cornered near the "Evil Canyon". FreeSmart jumps their van across the Evil Canyon and ram into Golf Ball, Tennis Ball, and Rocky, and they are all swallowed by Evil Leafy.
5b"BFDIA 5b"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary Huang & Michael HuangFebruary 11, 2013 (2013-02-11)
This part of the episode is a puzzle-platform game using Adobe Flash. [‡ 1] The FreeSmart members, trapped inside Evil Leafy after the events of BFDIA 5a, traverse through and escape her body using different abilities.
5c"No More Snow!"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary Huang & Michael HuangApril 14, 2013 (2013-04-14)
Firey and Gelatin fall off of Puffball and get eaten by Evil Leafy. Book and Ruby successfully escape Evil Leafy, with the other FreeSmart members missing or dead. Evil Leafy pursues them, followed by Fries and Puffball, and Book and Ruby crush them with an anvil, killing everyone still inside of Evil Leafy and destroying the HPRC. Pin gets stuck in glue and is crushed by a tree. The rest of W.O.A.H. Bunch falls into the Evil Canyon, so Coiny says Spongy should jump onto the spikes at the bottom so the other team members can land onto him. Needle slaps everyone out, but is stuck with Spongy, so W.O.A.H. Bunch sets the two on fire in hopes of recover her later. The remaining FreeSmart and W.O.A.H. Bunch members meet up and Firey Speaker Box brings out a "Hand-Powered HPRC creator" (HPHPRCC). They crank the handle until the HPRC is created. Match and Ice Cube return, but Match uses Ice Cube to douse her flame.
5d"It's a Monster"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary Huang & Michael HuangJuly 2, 2013 (2013-07-02)
The FreeSmart and W.O.A.H. Bunch members are still cranking even after 78 days. Finally, an HPRC comes out, and they recover their dead team members while the HPHPRCC self-destructs. The FreeSmart members get in a new van, the FreeSmart SuperVan, while W.O.A.H. Bunch also recovers Puffball, so they can make her fly them to Yoyleland. This fails and Puffball recovers Team No-Name, and Gelatin freezes W.O.A.H. Bunch with "Freeze Juice". FreeSmart then steals the HPRC.
5e"The Long-lost Yoyle City"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary Huang & Michael HuangAugust 2, 2013 (2013-08-02)
W.O.A.H. Bunch unfreezes and continue forward. Team No-Name is flying over Davidland, an area consisting of thousands of David clones, on Puffball. Meanwhile, FreeSmart is in the FreeSmart Supervan in Yoyleland, and they arrive at Yoyleland's signature landmark, the abandoned but well-preserved Yoyle City. Ruby accidentally glues the HPRC to the ground, and Pencil gets trapped by a fish's tongue. FreeSmart uses a saw to kill her, and they recover her using the HPRC. FreeSmart and Team No-Name reach Yoyle Mountain, where they are met by Firey Speaker Box. FreeSmart gets to the summit first. Firey Speaker Box realizes that Match is not in the TLC, and sends her there. While Team No-Name is about to reach the summit, Puffball, wanting to win a Cake at Stake prize again, betrays her team members by dropping them to be eaten by the fish, making Team No-Name lose as W.O.A.H. Bunch reaches the summit.
6"Well Rested"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary HuangSeptember 1, 2023 (2023-09-01)
Puffball is eliminated at Cake at Stake. Before the challenge, Rocky, who was on Team No-Name, is convinced to switch to W.O.A.H. Bunch, much to the former team's dismay. The challenge is to find a suitable place for the team members to have a good night's sleep. The challenge results in team W.O.A.H. Bunch being unable to sleep due to being chased by Evil Leafy for the entire night.
7"Intruder Alert"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary HuangOctober 1, 2023 (2023-10-01)
Ruby catches a Yoylite meteorite, which is coveted by Tennis Ball and Golf Ball for its rarity and power. Rocky is eliminated at Cake at Stake. The contestants eliminate TV as well when he fails to make a new Cake at Stake song, but he takes the key to the LOL with him, and Rocky bounces off the LOL's lid. Because the key is now inside it, the Tiny Loser Chamber (with the failed debuters and eliminated contestants inside it) is now locked with no way to open it. The challenge is to build a replacement for the Tiny Loser Chamber which will be used to store the future eliminated contestants. Tennis Ball instructs Firey and Gelatin to switch to FreeSmart for one challenge in order to get the Yoylite. As a result, FreeSmart loses the challenge due to Firey and Gelatin not telling them what the challenge is. The one surviving replacement for the TLC is a rather shoddy-looking structure, dubbed the Weak Trembling Fortress (WTF). Rocky is placed in the WTF.
8"Meaty"Cary Huang & Michael HuangCary HuangNovember 13, 2023 (2023-11-13)

Firey is eliminated at Cake at Stake and sent to the WTF. As a result, Firey Speaker Box becomes too sad to host. Puffball Speaker Box is brought back to host. The challenge is to paint a replica of the Eiffel Tower. W.O.A.H. Bunch loses due to Gelatin giving glasses meant for Yellow Face to Puffball Speaker Box which makes W.O.A.H. Bunch's paint color, purple, look yellow.

Note: Zach Kornfeld guest stars in this episode.
9"Catch These Hands"Anthony Acedo, Cary Huang, Michael Huang & Joseph PakCary HuangJanuary 31, 2024 (2024-01-31)
Nickel is attempting to scrub pink paint off himself. Ice Cube mentions that, being pink, she is now technically a strawberry milk cube. After Ruby recovers herself, she chomps on Ice Cube, and because Ice Cube was covered in lead paint, Ruby vomits it out. The lead paint vomit then begins corroding the Eiffel Tower. The Cake at Stake starts in FreeSmart's "Total Clubhouse of Awesomeness" at the top of the tower, with the prize being a paper airplane ticket out of the clubhouse, and Yellow Face is eliminated after Purple Face, his nemesis, steals his win token printer, and Yellow Face imprisons him in a acid-proof metal box. The challenge is a time-based game of charades, where contestants have to answer correctly before their teammate is crushed by a trash compactor. Team No-Name is out due to them running out of players first. Contestants who were killed are sent to the underworld, where they are turned into realistic versions of themselves, though they are eventually recovered and turned back later on.

Book, Needle and Tennis Ball continually alternate between who is in the lead, culminating in a standoff between Woody and the three contestants at the end of the bridge. Woody inadvertently falls off, and Coiny, who is returned to the surface after Nickel unintentionally uses a Swap Token to switch positions, uses Pin's drill to break the bridge while attempting to attack Book, believing she "killed" Pin with her flag, sending the contestants and Dream Island Again falling back to the ground.

28"B.F.B. = Back From Beginning"Cary Huang & Michael HuangSam ThornburyJanuary 15, 2021 (2021-01-15)
While inside the bus, X learns how to recover people, while the contestants are given a note to come outside, where they reunite with the Announcer. Everyone favors the Announcer over Four, which angers them. Because of this, they merge with the desert, turning it blue. Leafy is eliminated. The challenge is to redo the previous challenges. In each challenge, contestants meet one or more eliminated contestants. Flower wins immunity after successfully completing the final challenge, leaving Gelatin and Teardrop up for elimination.
29"SOS (Save Our Show)"Cary Huang & Michael HuangSam ThornburyFebruary 12, 2021 (2021-02-12)
Teardrop is eliminated. Announcer reveals that the show is facing cancellation due to a critically low budget (caused by his massive splurging and upgrading of their assets), prompting all the contestants and Purple Face to scramble to raise enough funds to save the show in an abandoned TV studio; they also note Four never ran into budgetary problems unlike the Announcer. Taco becomes suspicious on why the Announcer suddenly returned after the events of "Return of the Hang Glider" and confronts him when he secretly digs up the BFB and BFDI from Four; he reveals to her that after the first season ended, he wanted the show to continue, but struggled to maintain the show while avoiding being noticed by the contestants. After BFDIA ended, the Announcer returned home, until discovering Four and X with the "BFDI". Announcer waited for the cast to shrink before returning and taking back the show and the "BFDI", and had depleted the show's budget on purpose to ensure no one can win the "BFDI" from him. Suddenly, the show's budget begins to rapidly deteriorate, and with it, the style of the animation. The contestants rush to provide funding for the show, and at the last second, Flower donates $50,000 that Announcer had earlier gave her, saving the show. The Announcer begrudgingly allows the show to continue and invites the viewers to vote who should win the two prizes.
30"Chapter Complete"Cary Huang & Michael HuangSam ThornburyApril 9, 2021 (2021-04-09)
An episode of a season in an alternative reality dimension inside Four's mind—including the eliminated contestants from the EXIT—is generated as a coping method, as Four believes that the contestants do not care for him because they favor the Announcer and hate Four's behavior. When he realizes even the false "EXITors" hate him, he snaps the dimension out of existence when they confront him, and leaves the desert. The Announcer holds the final Cake at Stake for Flower and Gelatin. The eliminated contestants have an opinion vote for which contestant in the finale they would like to win the season. Flower wins the season, but she awards the "BFB" to the runner-up Gelatin. Purple Face robs the "BFDI" for not getting respect and conceals it under the seat of the golden bus. The contestants and X pursue Four to reconnect with him while the other contestants try to collect the "BFDI", but agree that the Announcer should hold it when he reveals it is the only remaining preservation of BFDI and BFDIA. The contestants follow Four to the Sun and, after Gelatin berates him for his behavior throughout the season, Four apologizes and they reconnect again. The contestants and the Announcer then prepare an actual party for Four to celebrate his return. Following this, the contestants go their separate ways, with Firey and Leafy in particular going off to build a third Dream Island of their own.

The 40 contestants that transferred to the new season are debating on whether they should reconsider going back, though they eventually agree that BFB is no longer worth competing in since Four changed the prize twice. Two appears and reveals Winner as the most-voted debuter to join the game. However, this makes the number of contestants 41, a prime number, making equal teams impossible.

Cake at Stake utilizes the voting format seen in Battle for B.F.B., and Pie is the first to be eliminated, and is sent by Two to an upside-down city realm. Since Two cannot recover contestants themself, they order the Wireless Recovery Center [ad] , which looks and functions similarly to the HPRC.

Realizing the park is empty, Two challenges the teams to make something for the park.

The contestants are tasked to prevent their team from getting infected, and the two teams with the most members killed/infected are up for elimination. Due to poor wireless connection between Two and Just Not in Gelatin's Steakhouse, Pillow misinterprets the challenge as having to kill her teammates, not protect them, and causes her team to lose. Teardrop, who had sacrificed herself during the challenge to produce an antidote, is automatically eliminated due to her still being on a solo team. In the episode's stinger, the crack in the moon created by Lightning breaks into a giant hole, and One, another Algebralien, emerges from the hole he made.

July 15, 2024 (2024-07-15)
Book and Price Tag climb Bell's string and discover that it passes through an area in the sky called Band Land. One kidnaps Bomby and Bell after their eliminations, then, behind Two's back, secretly and quickly shuffles the remaining contestants into four new teams: Death P.A.C.T. Yet Again, [ae] Team 2, [af] "BAGGED" [ag] and CloudYAY. [ah] The new teams are tasked to fill their respective pits with whatever they can find, and CloudYAY and "BAGGED" lose.

In a post-credits scene, Basketball is noticed and One kidnaps her.
13"Category One"Cary Huang, Michael Huang & Sam ThornburyNiall Burns & Sam ThornburySeptember 14, 2024 (2024-09-14)
One continues to meddle in the game, creating a massive hurricane that rages through Goiky (forcing everyone into the hotel in the process), and altering the whiteboard so that two "EXITors" can join instead of one, those being Pencil and Liy, the latter of whom would have joined by default. The two join CloudYAY and "BAGGED", respectively, while the remaining "EXITors" are thrown into the storm and swept away to various parts of the world, with Roboty crashing back into the hotel. With Barf Bag and Needle eliminated (and kidnapped by One as well), the challenge is for each team to stop a specific part of the chaos from reaching Two and disturbing their sleep. Robot Flower's rage reaches a climax, and Fanny and Tennis Ball work together to reset her, though they only manage to shut her down; Basketball is ultimately coerced into signing a contract to bring Robot Flower's original personality back. The four have Black Hole suck up the storm to end the hurricane, and Team 2 and Death P.A.C.T. Yet Again lose. Meanwhile, Match is carried by the storm to the former Battle for B.F.B. contest grounds where she reunites with Bubble and Ruby, while Firey discovers that Leafy had gone missing during the hurricane.
14"I SAID CAREFUL!!!"Cary Huang, Michael Huang & Sam ThornburyNiall Burns, Sutton Hull & Sam ThornburyNovember 9, 2024 (2024-11-09)
The contestants begin repairing the damage caused by the hurricane. TPOT's failed debuters host Cake at Stake while Two is busy cleaning up the hotel. After Eraser and Gaty's eliminations, Two is distraught by the latter's elimination, and instead allows Gaty to work in Four and X's kitchen. The challenge is to capture one of two flags; either from atop a snowy mountain, or atop a volcano. Three of four teams go for the snowy mountain, and once it is captured, they attempt to team up to stop CloudYAY from capturing the volcano flag. Death P.A.C.T. Yet Again and "BAGGED" lose.
15"Seasonal Shift"Sam ThornburyNiall Burns, Sutton Hull & Sam ThornburyJanuary 1, 2025 (2025-01-01)

Manipulated by One, the failed debuters discover the Yoylite from "Start the Shift" and learn of its time-traveling capabilities. They are transported to different periods in the past, which results in alterations to the series' timeline, and a large crack in the sky, known as the "Rift", is formed as a result. With Basketball and Robot Flower eliminated, Black Hole tries to hold the Rift shut, and tasks the contestants to time travel to different episodes in the series to fix differences, correct the timeline, and catch the debuters. Death P.A.C.T. Yet Again and Team 2 lose. The timeline is further damaged along the way, causing the Rift to grow exponentially larger, with some teams fixing the damage the other teams leave in their wake, ultimately culminating in Pencil's attempt to change her past accidentally resulting in Leafy being allowed onto Dream Island by Firey in "Return of the Hang Glider", and One taking the Yoylite's power to prevent the contestants from rescuing CloudYAY and fixing their damage, causing the universe to collapse. Gaty signs One's deal to prevent the end of the universe, and thus most of the changes to the timeline are reversed, but the Rift still remains in the sky. Upon hearing that the timeline is still imperfect, Two is horrified to notice that Gaty is missing. Meanwhile, Firey sets out with 8-Ball, who was carried by the storm onto the island that Firey was on, to search for Leafy, while Bell, Bomby, Needle and Barf Bag, trapped in One's realm, find a door which leads to the Equation Playground.

Note: Kevin MacLeod, TomSka, Jacksfilms, Gooseworx, and Michael Gregory of Schmoyoho were also featured in this episode as voice actors.

With Two far too depressed upon Gaty's disappearance, Four and X take over as hosts while Fanny and Ice Cube begin investigating One's plans. After Pin and Ice Cube are eliminated, the challenge is a game of hide-and-seek, with both Four and X as separate seekers—the team with the most contestants found by Four and the team with the most contestants found by X respectively are up for elimination. CloudYAY loses the most to both, leaving them up for a double elimination.
17"Bottle for Dream Island"Sam ThornburyNiall Burns & Sam Thornbury

Bottle assumes hosting duties while Four and X are busy cleaning up their kitchen after an incident involving Tree nearly losing a golden token Pin left to him earlier. After Yellow Face and Pillow are eliminated, she sends the contestants to the revamped ATWOsment Park containing four separate challenges, each with one member from each team participating. During the contest, Donut is kidnapped by One, who offers him a deal in exchange for his arms back (which were previously stolen by Yellow Face in "Balancing P.A.C.T."). After Donut questions and refuses her contract, One tears off his legs and kicks him out of her dimension, where he later uses Yellow Face's limbs that he finds in a bush. During the contest, Price Tag discovers that the effects of Loser's lie had gone outside the competition and that he was canceled online, and "BAGGED" and Team 2 lose. While exploring the Equation Playground, Bell, Bomby, Barf Bag and Needle come across Six, who, after learning of their encounters with One, joins them and leads them to another door leading to the EXIT, which Purple Face opens for them on the other side.
18"BFB 31"Florence Chapell & Sam ThornburyFlorence Chapell & Sam ThornburyJune 21, 2025 (2025-06-21)
Lollipop loses her "Yellow Face Silver Standard Gold Credit Card" and suspecting that someone has stolen it, gets Four's help. Four sets up an exhibition challenge, using a device in the TV studio to send some of the former Battle for B.F.B. contestants into each other's memories of the events after BFB to figure out who stole the card. Blocky figures out that the card was hidden in some couch cushions, though it turns out to have been taken by Match after making up with Bubble. Profily then returns and starts disconnecting the contestants in an attempt to wake them up. After the challenge, Loser is overcome with guilt after learning of Winner's presence in TPOT, and ventures out to find them. Profily then investigates Four's device, and Lollipop decides to take a look at his memories, where he finds that Profily also asked Balloony to join him and Teardrop, but he accidentally hopped into the Announcer's UFO while he was leaving for his home planet, mistaking it for Profily's "flying machine", and thus got stuck with the Announcer despite his efforts to get off, and Profily and Teardrop decided to continue without him. Taco then calls X to get Profily and Lollipop out of their memories.
19"Last One Standing"Sam ThornburySutton Hull & Sam ThornburyJuly 14, 2025 (2025-07-14)
Returning to the hotel, Four learns of One's presence after distributing Two's power to the remaining contestants in an effort to hold off the Rift when One starts to control it and when he helps decipher Fanny and Ice Cube's research. As the Earth is plunged into darkness, alerting X, the BFB contestants and the "EXITors" on other parts of the world, TV (eliminated alongside Snowball, who is sent away while still having a portion of Two's power) hosts Cake at Stake and initiates a battle royale as the next challenge. Purple Face leads the deal-signers and Six to the locked door to the EXIT, and Six reveals Three is also in the Fourest. One kidnaps Donut again, revealing to him that she had completely erased Gaty from existence as part of the contract, and does the same to Barf Bag and Basketball until Donut reluctantly gives up his portion of Two's power. One then kidnaps Black Hole to prevent him from continuing to hold back the Rift. Eventually, nearly everyone in the hotel (including the failed debuters) is killed, and Pencil, having disposed of the WRC, acquires most of Two's power from the dead contestants and TV (with Death P.A.C.T. Yet Again and "BAGGED" losing the challenge), and takes Four's power as well. She is confronted by One, who offers her a chance to redo the events of BFDI in exchange for Two and Four's powers; Pencil obliges and is sent back in time. One sends Four away, and blasts off into space, continuing to wreak havoc and kicking the Earth away, leaving the fate of the Earth uncertain. Grassy, who Pencil spared, and Winner, who was recovered by Price Tag via the WRC's wireless controller that they found, are the only contestants left alive.
20"Alone"Sam ThornburySam ThornburyOctober 17, 2025 (2025-10-17) [ai]

In a flashback, a young One is constantly excluded from the other Algebraliens' activities. One day, she discovers a Yoylite meteor that grants her powers. After showing the meteor to Three and helping Three gain their own power, One is heartbroken the next morning to discover that Three shared their secret with the other numbers, who now all have powers. An argument leads to One using her powers in rage, shattering Three before quickly being overcome by regret, trying to revive them, and partly succeeding (with Three now in a disfigured and catatonic state, with her "value" being corrupted). Four drains all the power from the Yoylite meteor and leads the other numbers (except for Two and Three) in banishing One for her actions, sealing her inside the moon. The numbers all agree to leave their home planet to hide from One in case she breaks out, with Four giving half of the power he took from the meteor to Two for safety and keeping Three in the Fourest, and Six assigned to stay behind. One later plots to exact revenge. After being freed from the moon, she begins to study the competition, watching the previous seasons, finds Three in a fortress dungeon in the Fourest, and plans to indirectly use the contestants to her advantage, mostly via her contracts. It is also revealed she kidnapped Leafy during the hurricane, only to be immediately rage-baited by Leafy about her behavior before One could show the contract. They fight, and One angrily sends away Leafy and a living camping book Leafy finds into Roboty's realm, before wondering if Firey will end up posing a threat to her.

Back in the present, shortly after sending Pencil back to "Take the Plunge" along with a means of contact, One pays Four back by sealing him in the moon and kicking it into space, then finds Nine on a planet populated by skateboards, destroys it and abducts them. Meanwhile, Winner and Loser reunite and make up with each other before attempting to repair the damaged WRC. They are joined by Firey Jr., who had respawned from Loser's discarded torch.
21"Insectophobe's Nightmare 6 [‡ 6] "Sam ThornburyNiall Burns, Sutton Hull & Sam ThornburyJanuary 30, 2026 (2026-01-30) [aj]

Two overhears One kidnapping Four and making her deal with Pencil, realizing she was responsible for Gaty's disappearance. Grassy, remembering Snowball's advice to "stay strong", leaves the vents. The black goop dripping from the sky causes multiple creatures to become mutated. Over the following months, Grassy tames the "Fourse" (a horse that bears a resemblance to Four), repairs and revives Liy, and starts cleaning up the hotel, while Two tries to find a way out of their locked room. Although no Cake at Stake is held, Two writes down the votes cast on a whiteboard, revealing Bottle and Tree as the next to be eliminated. When Two eventually gets the attention of Grassy and Liy, who are joined by Winner, Loser and Firey Jr., they reassign the remaining contestants into two teams, based on a contestant's present living status at any given time. The teams are named Team Alive and Team Dead, and Two declares that the challenge to unlock the door to their room. During the challenge, Golf Ball, Tennis Ball, Book and Marker are recovered, while Two opens up to Price Tag, revealing that after the events of "Alone", they were unable to fit in anywhere, and initiated the events of "The Escape from Four" in retribution to Four's lack of acknowledgement for them; they would soon find an understanding partner in Gaty. X, meanwhile, uses the memory machine to show the BFB contestants what occurred, and Match rushes off to find Pencil, later joined by Bubble and Ruby. Six, the signers and Purple Face decide to take a break from breaking into the EXIT and start looking for Three. Firey and 8-Ball are swept into Band Land when One kicks the Earth away, where they find David and Dora, and they help start making a pile to fall onto. Liy eventually discovers she holds the key to Two's room, but has it stolen by Golf Ball and Tennis Ball by a magnet; Golf Ball, while attempting to unlock the door, is killed by a stray venomous bug tendril, but still succeeds in doing so, rendering Team Alive [ak] up for elimination.

In the stinger, X discovers One had captured Four, and joins Match, Ruby and Bubble in the search. Price Tag tries to recover Fanny, but fails.

TitleDirected byWritten byOriginal release date
1"Elsewhere on Earth"Sam ThornburyFlorence Chapell & Sam ThornburyJanuary 1, 2026 (2026-01-01)
While the first season is underway, the Announcer secretly starts a personal season in another area with David and eleven new contestants: Beach Ball, Fern, Hot Dog, Jammy, Money, Needy, Rose, Ruler, Sidewalky, Sticker and Toothpaste. [al] The season's prize is a polar opposite version of Dream Island, and the winner gets to decide who will be trapped on the island. No teams are formed, meaning that contestants must compete individually. The first challenge is for each contestant to get to the top of their designated pole. The contestants use various techniques such as changing poles and using trampolines, and due to deciding to stick with his pole despite there being many spikes and saws on it, Hot Dog loses and is promptly eliminated. The viewers are then asked to vote for their favorite contestant in the game, which is said to be important later as the season continues.
2"The Bare Minimum"Sam ThornburyFlorence Chapell & Sam ThornburyJanuary 8, 2026 (2026-01-08)
The second challenge is to collect as many balls as possible within 10 minutes and put it in each contestant's assorted container. Sticker and Rose get away with cheating by painting the balls they collect gold (which are worth 98 points each as opposed to one), bringing both of their scores into the thousands. Money and Needy decide to only do the bare minimum to make sure they both stay in the game, which backfires when they have no balls left towards the end of the challenge. One last chance to earn a single ball is given when Jammy bursts after having Ruler stuff numerous balls inside of her. Just as the ball is guaranteed to land in Money's container, Needy decides to move her container over so the ball lands in it, eliminating Money. Once again, the viewers are asked to vote their favorite contestant.
3"Everyone's Enemies"Sam ThornburyFlorence Chapell & Sam ThornburyJanuary 15, 2026 (2026-01-15)
The third challenge is a two-parter; the first part is to jump off a cliff to retrieve a necklace. Nobody receives it; Needy finds another necklace and Sidewalky threatens the announcer, giving the two immunity and temporary involvement in the second part. The next part is a BFDI 18-styled tournament, in which contestants randomly picked by the wheel must fight each other, with the winner receiving immunity. Needy and Sidewalky are allowed to help/hurt any of the contestants in the tournament, until Announcer changes the rules due to Jammy's criticism of Sidewalky's interference. Many rivalries are formed throughout the challenge, such as; Rose and Beach Ball, Toothpaste and Sticker, and Jammy and Ruler. Beach Ball is eliminated, losing to Sticker because of a broken Yellow Face product. Once again, viewers are asked to vote their favorite contestant.
4"Insectophobe's Nightmare 0"Sam ThornburyFlorence ChapellJanuary 22, 2026 (2026-01-22)
The fourth challenge is a snowball fight, with whoever getting hit first being eliminated. Rose is rejected from her alliance with Sticker, and opts to use a flamethrower to melt snowballs and defend herself. Jammy and Fern team up for the challenge to take her down. The two are chased into a cave, and encounter ice bugs that kill Fern. The bugs follow Rose and Jammy out of the cave, then turn into ice cubes upon touching frozen water. Afterward, Rose goes back to chasing Jammy. Just as she was about to eliminate Jammy, Sidewalky and Ruler stop her and use a newly thawed bug to freeze her solid. Fern, newly recovered, finishes off Rose and eliminates her with a snowball. Yet again, the viewers are asked to vote their favorite contestant
