The Traitors

The Traitors was something I watched out of curiosity. When I asked my partner if they wanted to watch they flat out said no but would do as I was interested.

10 minutes into the first episode my partner was more infatuated than me.

Every episode had plot twists, amazing challenges and nail biting endings always leave us satisfied but in suspense of what was going to happen next.. and the ending? Oh my god.. what an ending..

I implore anyone who reads this to give it a watch. It's the best thing all year.

Finally I didn't expect such a platform to be on the BBC.. all those streaming providers really missed out.

Cannot wait for season 2!!!

Inventive and beautifully produced, directed, and photographed.

Claudia Winkelman is the perfect Host, with an occasional aside of humorous self-awareness. The contestants all participate flawlessly and make the whole thing work. Suspense is constant, right up to the last few minutes. At least in Season 1; I'm not yet done with Season 2.

As it appears to be unpredictable for not only the players but the producers, who couldn't know how it would all turn out but seem to have thought of everything.

The amount of planning, props, and other production work is just phenomenal. Not a detail missed. All aided by the gorgeous castle, grounds, and landscape.

With what must be a huge but nicely invisible crew making it all go. And the post-filming editing is masterful, adding everywhere to the intended atmosphere.

I have only a couple of nits. The overlaid music is too much, and the player "Oh my god" reactions often overdone. That's the only sign of over-coaching.

I'm very glad to read that there will be a third season. It must be very expensive to produce.

Rating it a 9 because it is well over 8.

One of my FAVORITE game shows - EVER!!!

SO addictive, in fact, that I had to look for more, and BINGE-watched (at the expense of being late for work the following morning), not ONLY the U. S version, but the UK and Australian versions.

It is SO good, that if I understood or spoke Danish, or if it had subtitles (and I knew where to stream it), I would immediately watch the original as well.

I was about to add that if you enjoy game shows, this is a DO NOT MISS show, BUT that falls short. This is not only a series where players compete for money. It's a whodunnit, a thriller, a mystery, a drama, a comedy ... it is excellent and addictive.

What a show. Love it. Full of action and psychological play The worst bit wierdly is missions for the money which to me has no impact at all.

But the show is immense and exciting and fun.

Claudia is a perfect host for this show with her whacky personality I never watch one show after another as got a short attention span so need variety.

But i watched 3 in a row and then 2 today one catch up and one live.

One of best of shows ive seen for a while.

Love the tension between competitors as not knowing who is a faithful and a traitor.

Funny how each night think oh they will keep off this person and then a total different person chosen showing the insecurities this game is bringing up to people in game.

But makes a damn good show.

Love it a defo 10.

I only watched this programme to start with as I love Claudia Winkleman! I bet she had a whale of a time making it and inflicting/encouraging such cruelty! Ha ha... I am not usually a big fan of reality shows but this sounded refreshingly different. I was totally hooked from the very first one and couldn't miss a single episode! I love everything about it... the tasks, the scary round table, the armoury, and the conspiring followed by the murders! So many twists and turns too... A very good selection of totally different characters made it compulsive viewing... interesting to see how they change towards each other throughout the days!... they had better make a series 2!!
