Anna Leszkiewicz New Statesman 01/04/2024
Why is it such addictive viewing? Perhaps because the viewer is given smug omniscience – we know who the Traitors are, and we watch, god-like, popcorn in hand, as chaos blooms in their wake. Go to Full Review
Fiona Sturges Financial Times 01/25/2023
On paper, it might sound like a zhuzhed-up version of Cluedo or the children’s game wink murder. In practice, it is a brilliant recipe for multi-layered manoeuvring and top-tier bluffing. Go to Full Review

5/5
Dramatic, deliciously dark and just camp enough, this was old-fashioned event TV. Go to Full Review
Christopher Stevens Daily Mail (UK) 12/16/2022
4/5
There's never been a show quite like this. It's the anti-Bake Off, the opposite of all those telly competitions were taking part and making friends matters more than winning. Go to Full Review

Don T @Donvvv Feb 18 Brits should be embarrassed with the cast. The "men" led by Wilfred cried every 3 minutes of the show. No exaggeration, they would cry every 5 minutes of the show. Wilfred was pathetic. Do yourself a favor and watch the US version where you can watch real men and not little girls. See more Collaborative Artists E @RT94104316 Apr 24 Enjoyed the UK version more than the American one. The players are all interesting and the psychological aspect makes it so addictive. See more LL S @RT94144845 02/17/2024 It's infuriating af when undeserving people win. Also Winkleman is too involved. See more Petros P @RT94561964 08/06/2023 Finally a reality show with realistic people with actual brains and emotions. Great production, editing, music. Just the right level of drama and suspense. See more Jacob T @RT82961516 07/25/2023 Incredibly addictive stuff. See more Rachel C @RT54694775 04/15/2023 Amazing show. But I hope every single person on this show sees how they treated Maddie and cringes. She was consistent, respectful, and had the right idea. Yet people screamed at her, intimidated her, dismissed her, said she wasn't contributing, and beat up on her for playing the exact game she and everyone else came to play. You all should be ashamed and I hope you reflect on your own blind spots. The ones who came down hardest on her never correctly guessed any traitor - she was the only one who was right. And contrary to popular belief (by the self-righteous players who were obviously unable to think down the line) Maddie's theory was not disproven just because Traitor 1 voted out another Traitor. Don't want to spoil anything for others, but everyone on the show owes Maddie some respect and an apology. See more Read all reviews
