An average of 12M people in the UK are watching it. It's absolutely massive event TV. Everyone is talking about it.

I will say though that last year had WAY more pop culture 'moments' and memes/quotes spawning from it. Celia's fart, her wailing at the well, 'put the pussy in it', Alan murdering her, Alan laughing during the 'I am a faithful' line, Alan and Jonathan's banter before they found out they were Traitors, 'MAYBE SOMEONE'S BEEN RECRUITEDDDDDDDD', 'flabbergasted' etc are still popping up on social media with huge engagement a year later.

I really can't think of anything from this series besides maybe Miranda dancing to Touch for a few seconds and even that is a stretch.

For ME this series is not event TV is what I was saying and it's the first time I've felt like that watching any UK series of The Traitors.

...saying that, I'm still kinda looking forward to the finale. I really need Michael exposing Maya to happen.

I think the Traitors went wrong with getting rid of Sharon when they did . She had a lot of heat on her and would have likely gone that last round table . They should have gotten rid of one of the males like Micheal or James B .

I’m also not a big fan of what James A did either tbh . He essentially threw Maya under the bus also potentially Kenny as well .

I also think there needs to be a major overhaul in terms of the challenges for next season. It was pretty much established from Season 1 that the viewers saw challenges as a chance to go to the bathroom or to scroll on their phones but I've never saw so many complaints about them until this year. They really need to start intertwining the overall Traitors game into them and get rid of the endless 'one group runs around a forest collecting stuff while the other group waits for them to be in communication' type tasks and start incorporating challenges that stir up the paranoia and drama between players. It's no surprise that the one challenge this year - with the blindfolds - where Traitors were actually involved in sabotaging was the one that got the most acclaim from viewers.

I appreciate they're limited with what they can do in terms of location but after seeing four civilian seasons, two celebrity seasons and three/four USA seasons (also set in the Scottish castle) people are getting sick of seeing the church with the masks, the hut with the haunted sound effects and the building-a-giant-explosive-by-the-lake stuff.

It's a strange show in that so many people are GLUED to the screen for the start and finish of the episode and then not giving a shit about the middle part.

It'd why I just follow online and don't watch it. The challenges are utter drivel and have no bearing on the game, yet take up 3/4 of an episode.

Sounds like James A went off thd boil, producers stepped in, but it ruined the game anyway.

Yea banishing Sharon was the wrong call, they should have went with Bash as someone who doesn't have much heat on him, even Romesh (although I'd have hated that). James A is a fanny, if he didn't want to be a traitor that badly he should have just said no in the beginning, he owed it to the game to at least try and stay secret. Maya is in trouble, I can't see past a Kenny solo win now, I think this is the first year where I've actually been more on the faithful side. In an ideal world Romesh wins for me tbh.
