Critics Consensus

Unashamedly duplicitous, The Traitors sharpens its knives for a second round full of memorable contestants and deliciously petty backstabbing.

This year, now that the format is more established and scrutinised, it’s clear that The Traitors has mastered a form of perfect imperfection. Go to Full Review

There were lessons for all of us here. For the BBC, however, there was but one takeaway: acquiring this quirky international format, with its cowls and its owls, has been a stroke of genius. Go to Full Review
Hugo Rifkind The Times (UK) 01/05/2024
The real meat of The Traitors, though, comes with the plotting, the denouncing, the banishment. This might sound like a well-trodden dynamic, but it works precisely because the clichés of reality TV are so familiar. Go to Full Review

Still the very best in pure TV entertainment. Go to Full Review
James Delingpole The Spectator 01/18/2024
What I resent about the British version, set in Scotland, with Claudia Winkleman hamming it up as a Brora goth, is the shameless manipulation. Go to Full Review
Alison Rowat The Herald (Scotland) 01/12/2024
The real stars are the host Claudia Winkleman and, at the top of the pecking order, the castle’s owls. I could have sworn one of them was already bigging up its part and we’re only on week one. Watch your back, Claude. Go to Full Review

PAM S @Pensgirl87 04/05/2024 Very entertaining. Love that these are regular people who all could use the money and really try during the missions. This season was especially fun to watch as we learned about contestants’ lives and saw some great psychological tactics used. Grew to like most every one of them. Please stick to “regular people” contestants (as in non celebrities) who are there to play the game and are also likeable. See more Read all reviews
