Traitors

I've watched all 6 episodes and I wasn't bored at all. In fact I hope there's a second series.

Sorry but the series not only laughably bad, the critics have agreed it is as well. but it has an insanely high rating here in IMDB only because of shilled fake reviews. You can tell since the only activity of the account giving it a 10, 9 or 8 is upvoting and shill reviewing series. Poor acting, abysmal writing, laughable paranoid plot.

Traitors is an interesting idea that suffers from extraneous subplots and some cringeworthy exposition. You'll be lectured on race relations in the USA, on abortion rights, on women in the workplace, on systemic abuse of Jews and a dozen other worthy but in this context distracting issues. That's just bad writing. At its core though, Traitors is a tale about one woman's emotional journey into, depending on your POV, adulthood or corruption and that story is very well told and very well acted by Emma Appleton. A second season? Why not.

How can a series have such great production values regarding costumes, sets, vehicles and the like and still have so many terrible anachronisms in the script?? just drove me nuts!

This stands alone as a good yarn about spying in post war Britain, the storyline is interesting and the acting throughout is excellent. I am a little surprised at the low ratings it gets but I'm guessing it does not contain the action which many people seem to crave these days. Instead of this, the drama demands your attention and makes the viewer think about the issues it raises. The cynical viewer who wants endless action should watch pieces containing Jason Statham.
