"The Traitors," has been a huge hit on Peacock. It's the American version of the popular game show. I wrote about the second season and broke down how the game, "Works," in a previous post, and much of the show remained the same this season (a small group of traitors hide who they are and, "Murder," the rest of the faithful before being found out). Fun little twists kept things fresh as well as the fact that the traitors this season turned on each other really fast. Sometimes it is fun to see the traitors masterfully pick everyone off (Season 1 with Ciere) and other times pure chaos is a hoot (this season). It is always fascinating to see people from other shows be shockingly good or bad at, "The Traitors," as you never know what to expect.
This show is full of little surprises. In the second season, Dan Gheelsing (one of the best, "Big Brother," players ever) washed out shockingly quickly and in this season Dylan Efron (a man who readily declares he is only known for being Zac Efron's brother) was insanely skilled at this game of deduction and became a fan-favorite! You always guess who is going to go far or be terrible, and you generally are shockingly wrong...if you're me at least. That's all part of the fun, however, as viewers know who is a traitor or faithful from the start and get to chuckle at how bad some faithful are in their theories and how eerily on the mark others are regarding who they go after.
Season 3 of, "The Traitors," was a real treat between the various cast members, wild roundtables full of accusations, and host Alan Cumming rolling the R in, "Murder," like a boss. If you have Peacock you should watch this show and if don't have Peacock, this program is a good reason to try it out!
5 out of 5 Stars (for this season).
