EEVILMURRAY Posted January 29, 2024 Posted January 29, 2024 Finished the Aussie one over the weekend... wow Reveal hidden contents What a stupid bitch... This is more embarrassing than someone saying they're a psychic, having someone who psychoanalyses people unable to hold an opinion for more than it takes you to finish this sentence. It felt acceptable for a once, maybe twice occasion, but before every Round table "I'm gunning for Sam, there's too much evidence", come Banishment, someone says one thing which could make someone else look dodgy = instant vote switch. Not that the others were much better, but those that were switched on were voted off by the sheep Reveal hidden contents Meant to say Sam... He was like the the Aussie Andrew, but for some reason was managed to stay on longer despite being as charming as a tumour with a personality to match, compared to Andrew, who whilst being smug, did manage to be best friends with all there. Reveal hidden contents We've never had more than 1 traitor make it to the end, so this Golden Balls style Split-Or-Steal thing was new. If they'd voted Sam out at the end I think Blake and Camile would've shared. But they both knew Sam was gonna try and take it all for himself. Until the last minute I thought Camile was going to share, but she dropped the Andross "If I' go down I'm taking you with me", leaving Sam with a Dara O'Brian style "h'wait, h'what" and a salty "but it was miiiiiine". I'm sad we didn't see actual tears. @Beast @darksnowman @WackerJr - I need your feels
WackerJr Posted January 29, 2024 Posted January 29, 2024 Oh I haven’t started the 2nd Aussie one yet, but I certainly will! Despite my frustrations over some of the actions of UK contestants in the final episodes, it made for great television! 😁 1

Expand If I was a faithful I'd have wanted him out from the word go because he only muddied the waters, ultimately teeing it up for the traitors to slip through the roundtables.

Been avoiding this thread until I could wrap it up, which I did this evening then watched the finale of Uncloaked (but none of the previous) and a pair of interviews on Radio 2. Last few episodes was a bit like watching dominoes fall despite some jeopardy right at the end. Reveal hidden contents I was on for Harry less in the back half because he got a bit too big for his boots, imo. Would have liked an Andrew or Jaz win by the end truth be told. At the sword in the stone bit I hoped Andy was gonna get the option on the 7k and take it because Harry was always gonna sacrifice him on the last day. Blondie didn't deserve to be in with a sniff of the money because she didn't seem to offer anything throughout, least of all at the roundtable discussions. Absolute numpty. Was shaking my head when Andrew "went for it" with his reasons for forcing another vote at the end. Needed a modicum of subtlety to have any chance. Overall happy enough with the result—even if I wasn't a fan of Harry buying into his own hype, he played the game well. Infuriating watching them deduce like dummies but that's what makes it a fun watch. Got your sob story drafted for your season 3 application?
Beast Posted January 31, 2024 Posted January 31, 2024 I have two episodes left...I think... Reveal hidden contents I wanted Zack to go so badly. He was quite annoying in the end. Jumping down people's throats and interrupting them all of the time. Andrew was also equally annoying. Learn to play the game, fool. I literally didn't like Paul at all. I just found him to be smarmy. Harry is the only likeable person who respects the game and plays it well and I hope he wins it all. He plays it for survival and I can respect that because I wouldn't have trusted the others either. At the moment, it's just him and Andrew. The Faithfuls are so easily swayed that it's scary. Also, am I the only one who thought it was obvious that Diane and Ross were related? They literally look like each other. First thing I said when they spoke was that they could be related 🤣

Expand When knowing the answer was wrong and he blunders in, you'd have thought it was common sense to not take the money with you... but nope, up he went. I'm surprised he didn't try climbing to the top of the net, but I've never been caught in a Predator-style trap because I'm too cool for that shit. That elusive thing certainly exploded, I can't believe how heated everyone got! I've put in my application that I specifically do not have a sob story for them, but I would pay my mum's mortgage if she has any.

Even knowing they're related I can't see it myself, maybe if Ross didn't have the beard or glasses my mind could focus. Now watch Aussie! Edited January 31, 2024 by EEVILMURRAY 1

The editing makes them look so twitchy and out of their depth. Even knowing, I still don't see it with Diane and Ross! On 1/31/2024 at 8:13 AM, EEVILMURRAY said: That elusive thing certainly exploded, I can't believe how heated everyone got! Expand Yeah it was quality. Couldn't believe the bald-faced lying of it since they normally stitch each other up more subtly.

Make sure to practise your cue action because those clips at the snooker table are dire.

Expand Nothing to do with the colour or creed of his barnet. Just wasn't a fan of how he waltzed in and assumed control of proceedings from the outset. But maybe if you're in there you would be naturally drawn to that sort of focal point in the group. Like moths to a big obnoxious ginger flame.

The contestants crumbling like that is what makes it. When the ratings dip maybe they'll try to shoehorn in some Big Brother style romance. Shields to spend the night together in Claudia's cabin, protection as standard.
EEVILMURRAY Posted February 9, 2024 Posted February 9, 2024 Reveal hidden contents I saw Camille had posted a video on how she came to her decision and praised her. She said Sam did an interview for a podcast where he was being a whiny bitch, and I managed to find it https://www.everand.com/podcast/670926417/Sam-McGlone-THE-TRAITORS-Reality-TV-Personality
EEVILMURRAY Posted June 15, 2024 Posted June 15, 2024 @WackerJr @Beast @darksnowman Season 2 of US Traitors now on iPlayer. I recognise only Ekin-Su and for some reason John Bercow was drafted by the Americans into this, he must've gotten some proper swag over there. I'm not sure what has happened to Alan Cumming, but is cranking his campness to the extreme. He seems to have gotten more Scottish since last time, and if I didn't know he was an accomplished actor, I would say he is a person who doesn't know how to act - which is probably a compliment to his craft. It's just so cringeworthy. My mind gets torn when he turns up in a new outfit as my mind flips between "oh that's just traditional old school Scotland style", or the quote from Mean Girls "you've truly out-gayed yourself" That aside, pretty standard Traitors action, about 3 episodes in and they're doing a good job. 1

EEVILMURRAY Posted November 6, 2024 Posted November 6, 2024 There is a New Zealand version on iPlayer now, seems to have a couple of NZ celebrities, but nowhere near bogged down by the amount of "reality TV stars" that the American version has, so there's no whiny drama. A little twisty.
