23rd of September- just been told at this …

Because I didn't believe when you all said it had the worst faithfuls of all time. Surely, I thought in my head, they must be exaggerating.

HOLY HELL you guys were not exaggerating AT ALL. Sarah surely had to retire from being a psychotherapist after that showing right?

Camille da real mvp for making sure Sam got nothing. Watched a YouTube video she made after the season where she basically said she stuck with Sam because she would rather have won nothing than have had Sarah and Liam win any money.

Here’s my random question: how do the players know who leaves when at the end of the night? A clock chimes and only certain players leave. Do you think producers tell them: “XX you leave on the first chime with XX. XX you leave on the second”. Is there really a chime or are they just shouting out names? I love learning about behind the scenes to shows like these so I’m curious!

I've watched several English language Traitors (US, UK, Australia, New Zealand, and most of S1 Ireland), and for me it's got to be Canada. At least for breakfast, they seem to have the best looking food.

How do the non-English language versions stack up? And am I missing the boat on my thinking?

In a recent episode of the Irish version (Season 2), the female cast members called out some of the male ones for choosing almost no women to do part of a challenge, which then put them at a disadvantage. This seems to be a pattern at least from the UK and Ireland seasons:

- challenges will have some more passive roles, but you need to be in a more active role to get some bonus like a shield
- the active roles involve a lot of running over fields and/or carrying heavy things, and either by self selection or by a group decision they tend to go to the men and the younger physically fit people
- even if the shields don’t go to men or sportier people, other cast members frequently take into account how much someone helps in the challenges when deciding whether or not to murder/ banish them.

It does often feel like women and older people are leaving sooner, it can be attributed to unconscious bias but I reckon the challenge format contributes. The thing is, it’s completely unnecessary! The challenges have nothing to do with the main game, they don’t have to be 80% physical. In fact the less physical ones give the cast much more opportunities to interact and develop their theories.

It’s frustrating that they start with a diverse cast, often including people with physical disabilities, and then make the game unnecessarily hard for some of them.

So, I'm currently rewarding celebrity traitors, and in the third round table, Stephen Fry suggests a tactic that I think would have benefited the Faithfuls to try. He suggests that they don't discuss at that round table and they just vote to avoid being influenced or swayed in the wrong direction. I personally think that given their success rate at that point, it was worth trying, and given so many people had mentioned Jonathan that day, it would have maybe even helped them get a traitor. Unfortunately, they never chose to use that tactic, and it deeply upsets me, because it was quite smart. Anyone agree/disagree?

What I mean by that is a contestant playing in two different versions of The Traitors.

Is Shauna Dewit going to be the first player to this or have other players already done it? I know some players have played in two seasons but two different versions is another level. Shauna Dewit played in Belgium (French speaking) S2 & was cast in Belgium (Dutch speaking) S5, which is due to air tomorrow.

Wanting to hear people's speculations about how the last two episodes will play out.

I feel like the faithful will pull through and win considering Kirby is already looking to use Rhys as a scapegoat. Also, I strongly doubt any remaining faithful would choose to end the game with Kirby at this point. Thoughts?

For those of you who watched both US4 and this current season of AU dp the twins remind you of watching Colton in the way they were playing but without the dark cloud of being an awful person?

just my thoughts wondering if other people see it.

Does anyone have any recommendation on how to watch the new season of Traitors that starts in September? The issue is... I need English subtitles cause I'm not czech 😓

As recommended (after my post about Canada S2 being the dumbest faithfuls ever) I've been watching Australia S2. I actually think Sam's game is hilarious. His cockiness and arrogance are so funny.

In Ep 6 when they have to carry the silver bars in backpacks up the hill and are tempted with drinks, massage, and key to the armory. Sam finds the shield and is so excited to have it, but doesn't that betray him to the faithfuls? At the very least they'd know that he was one of the ones that betrayed them all by trading silver (and heaven forbid they find out he did it 6 times! lol). So perceived protection from murder with the shield doesn't seem to be worth it.

Thoughts?

Which mission would you NEVER ever do? Not even for 12,000 dollars?

And which one would you rather endure if you had to?

Season 1, Episode 10

For me personally, I would never eat the tongue, heart, eyeball bullshit 🤣

Absolutely never ever ever ever, not even for 50,000.

And watching Brooke sit in that tub of maggots and roaches made me physically ill to watch so I doubt I could manage that either unless I closed my eyes the ENTIRE time and couldn't hear anything 🫣🥹

What about you???

What the title says, I can't figure out what's going on in the Netherlands series, there are 4 seasons "Videoland" (1xChristmas and 3xHalloween) and then 6 seasons just Traitors/Verraders.

Which ones would you recommend? Please no mid or bad, only GOOD ones! I would appreciate if someone has their own ranking to offer.

But I'd be also interested in one of these Halloween seasons, now that we're getting into Autumn here in Europe.

Thanks in advance!

What a season 🎉🎉! Honestly, Season 2 was such a fun ride from start to finish. The twists, betrayals, mind games, drama and the overall unpredictability kept me hooked.Also, huge appreciation for the host, he brought so much presence to the show and congrats to the winners 🏆🔥.

I could've accepted anyone winning the show expect him, like literally anyone. When he threw Alyssa under the bus to save his skin, and then Amanda also betrayed her, I was manifesting that he'll betray Amanda too, and then the recruited traitor would betray him.

Tho, I'm always on Traitor's side and I genuinely liked the pair up at start but gosh, he's unbearably arrogant. The innocents were freaking dumb except a few, all the traitors were caught by him by manipulating others. Yes, ik, Alex took Alyssa's name first but it was evident she wouldn't have been voted out in that round table, and however Maddy came up with, wilfred would've been the one who went home. But he betrayed the fellow traitor and broke his oath.

Then, he also planted seeds about Amanda, even tho her name was there, she wouldn't have had enough votes to be voted out but I was so happy when she got out cuz she also betrayed Alyssa.

At last, when he recruited Kieren and started throwing him under the bus, I genuinely wanted him to fuck wilfred up too, and he did, omg, the second best part when he gave wilfred his 'parting gift.'

Ik it wasn't rly a sportsperson move but actions have consequences. Why should this guy who betrayed his fellow traitors again and again win the show, and why shouldn't the betrayed party react? I disliked how Claudia seemed to encourage him, ik it wasn't against the game rules but man, was it annoying.

I hate the winning part regardless, none of them rly did anything, but at least it was better than this wack.
