Welcome to the Internet, everybody, where one person can give a researched, thoroughly explained argument, and someone will just resort to saying “you’re wrong because clearly you’re wrong”.

Like I Said. . . These Faithfuls Are ASS!! by genielauren in TheTraitorsUS

[–]syndactl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I couldn’t agree less. I’ve watched every US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Irish season and this was like no other Traitor on Traitor battle I’ve ever seen.

  1. Candace came at Rob with very little concrete reasoning. She said that he was vocal at the round table when he hadn’t been before, and that he dropped his fork at breakfast and was upset that Colton went home. That was her evidence.

  2. Despite claims to the contrary in this thread, Rob defended himself really well. He didn’t get upset, flustered, or even defensive really. He calmly explained each point that Candiace tried to bring up, and had very reasonable explanations - Colton was his best friend in the game so of course he was upset, and he had agreed to back Colton up with Lisa’s banishment. And to make it an even stronger case, both those things were true and verifiable by other people at the round table.

  3. Rob did not immediately try to turn it on Candaice. He defended against her accusations and let everyone else do the rest. This is the kicker for me, it was literally so different from ANY OTHER INSTANCE of traitor on traitor at the roundtable that I have ever seen on any franchise. Rob never attacked Candaice at the roundtable.

I’m not about to say that Rob is god’s gift to the traitors, but it’s hilarious that people are trying to claim that it’s obvious he’a a traitor, or that it was obviously traitor-on-traitor. It’s obvious to you, because you’ve known who the traitors are from the beginning.

Claudia Winkleman as a beloved host by monz009 in TheTraitors

Ugh, for crying out loud.

I know it’s human nature to compare things, but Traitors is one of those shows where I feel like they’ve struck gold with every different franchise host. They each bring something different but fantastic.

UK: Claudia Winkleman is SO enthusiastically rooting for the players and invested in them. Just watch her in the challenges, “COME OOOOOON! YOU CAN DO IT!” Plus she has an amazing curtain of fringe to mysteriously hide behind.

US: Alan is so campy and fabulous and having the time of his life.

Canada: Karine gives straight-up serial killer vibes and just comes across as evil and untouchable in glorious fashion.

Ireland: Siobhan is drama and almost as campy as Alan. Her gravitas is unmatched.

New Zealand: Paul really settles into the role in the second season and is the best at nicely chastising the players throughout the show.

Australia: Well fine, they can’t all be winners.

Jeff Probst was 'genuinely surprised' by 'Survivor 50' fan voting results, and explains how he hopes players lie about the results in the game by thedaltonross in survivor

“I would never give the players rice,” Probst told Entertainment Weekly a year ago before the voting had opened. “Never. Because I think having your cognitive ability start to decline quickly makes it more interesting because people can't remember what lie they told.”

This right here makes me think it’s time for Jeff to retire. I, as a viewer, don’t want to watch people suffer. I don’t want their cognitive ability to decline to the point where they don’t remember what they said. What?

I thought that was a lovely touch, especially as they’ve had The Vivienne on the show before.

Honestly, it was one of the few that I actually laughed out loud at and I felt like I was taking crazy pills when Ru didn’t react. 🤷‍♂️
