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.

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!!
Probably the best reality show since Big Brother (when it was good).
22 people are pitted against each other. Three are traitors and the others are faithfuls. The faithfuls have to try and vote out the traitors while the traitors try to remain undetected. At the end of the show if all the traitors are voted out then the faithfuls split the prize pool between themselves. If just one traitor is left at the end then they take all the money for their self.
It's a bit like watching a murder mystery unfold. The viewer know who the traitors are so they can watch them plot, backstab and 'murder' whilst forming bonds and friendships.
I didn't expect to enjoy this programme, im not much for reality TV but this had me gripped early on. The final episode was fantastic to watch. You really find yourself drawn in and hope that whoever you want to win manages it.
If this sounds like the kind of thing you like watching then give it a go. I don't think many people will be disappointed.

This is reality television with a twist! Most reality shows choose extreme personalities, pit them against each other in mild challenges, surfacing drama from the close proximity of big egos. The Traitors picks relatively normal people and pits them against each other in brutal fashion. The ensuing drama is a result of natural paranoia!
I love this show because it feels like a social experiment. It's a real game of cat and mouse, with the traitors lying and scheming in an effort to stay undetected, and the faithfuls clutching as straws as they try to weed out the traitors. It's even more compelling that we, as the audience, know who the traitors are from the beginning.
When the show first starts, most contestants are quite polite, if a little cautious. No one is willing to throw any serious shade on the credibility of their fellows. But as the show goes on, the tension builds, and all sorts of crazy starts to happen. Great tv!

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.
