The Traitors

I have never felt so angry and frustrated as I felt watching the 2nd season of The Traitors Australia. Whoever chose those contestants should never be allowed to work in TV again. These are by far the most mentally challenged, weak minded contestants I have ever seen on any reality show. There is not one single person with moral strength or character, no one to root for, and the result is 9 episodes of pure misery with idiots making stupid decisions over and over again. As a viewer, watching something like this makes for an extremely frustrating, extremely infuriating experience.

I will be coming back for the 3rd season - if there is one - but if I see the same thing happening by episode 3, unlike with season 2, I will not be watching until the end.

Where did they find these terrible people? I'm about a third of the way through and I'm currently hoping they all get banished. If there's no one to root for, what's the point of hanging in here? This is actually worse than the American version, and that's unbelievable.

Maybe this version would have been renewed for another season if they'd picked better contestants and left off the reality show people...although, unlike the US, the Australian "realities" were more tolerable than the "real" people. I'm going to limit my Traitors time to the UK version from now own. At least those people had personalities...unless they load the next season with Love Islanders.

I preferred our own version (the British one) but this was still good.

I binged it over a weekend. After the first couple of episodes I decided to skip past the challenges. They weren't very entertaining and felt more like filler for each episode. I may have missed the odd discussion but I can live with that. I want to see the scheming and the back stabbing play out, not someone walking over a bridge with trapdoors or retrieving something out of a lake.

As with our version though I was never too sure which side I wanted to win. I can admire a good traitor. Especially when they are saying one thing and doing another like it's normal to them. I can also admire a faithful when they cleverly put together who it is and why.

All in all it's a good watch and harmless entertainment. Will your favourite win? You'll have to watch it to see.

Absolutely in love with The Traitors (Australia). As a huge fan of The Mole, including the new reboot, one of the biggest feedback I had (along with many others) was that they wished The Mole also had stake in the game as well to make the game a bit more competitive. Here comes The Traitors, a new game that is slightly similar, but with a much better twist - the "traitors" are selected from the contestants pool (not a hired actor), and everyone has to compete to win the money. The social game is even more intense in this one, because you have to stay off everyone's radar so you don't look suspicious, AND the Traitors' radar so they don't 'murder' you for being a threat.

In this debut Australian version, I really liked their casting and Roger is great host as well. Each episode takes you on a wild ride where you don't know who's next.

I haven't seen confirmation for a season 2 yet, but in the finale they did mention see you next year. So I hope that's confirmation lol. Love this show!

I am not usually writing reviews, it's my first one actually but i feel like this show needs more love.

After watching "The Mole", i was left with a gap,, something was not right. And a friend recommended me this show. I managed to finish it less than a day. Even though i did not like the winner, I loved the show.

Throughout the show I would find myself pausing the show for 5-10 minutes straight and calculating what my moves would be if I were a traitor. It really turns the wheels inside your brain.

You see thought processes which feel more genuine and make more sense rather than the ones in " The Mole". It always makes you question what would you do in the player's situation or whether you would've chosen better.

The cast is diverse, from silent players to more vocal ones with bigger personalities which does make it more interesting.

Nice looking mansion, nice sets, nice contests and nice costumes, really portrays them as murderers from a secret order.

Witty and good looking presenter. If he would ever steal my wife I would totally understand it.
