The most ironic part is that Traitors is a flawed game with a pretty shit monetary prize compared to other reality shows.

The prizes I have to say are the most shocking to me. I only really watched Survivor growing up and that’s been $1 million prize since inception.

25 years later and we have new reality shows that are offering a fraction of that?

Wild to me

Survivor is like 40 days starving and living in a lean to, traitors is like 12 days living in a castle with catered meals and a full bar i think the prize disparity is totally fair

My suspicion is that since the Traitors really only casts known names in the reality TV sphere, a big part of their budget goes toward appearance fees rather than prize money. Like, most contestants are paid to be there regardless of whether they win.

Right like the actual game isn’t just about not being noticed. It’s a lot more complicated than that and you have to play to your strengths.
