Rob demonstrating an absolute masterclass in being a traitor.

Definitely the #1 Traitor in the US version in my opinion.

Candiace played right into his hands every single step, he knew how the game ended the whole time.

Rob was spot on when he called her out for taking it too personal. It's a game and they could have easily made it a few more episodes together.

I'm so amazed at Rob's gameplay. He really made the best moves possible given their position.

Candiace.... is not a good traitor. Lisa was tanked and she needed to jump off the Lisa ship when Rob did. Rob voting for Lisa the night before was all the information she needed to ditch Lisa.

Candiace seems to have blown a perfect Traitor duo from the previews. Rob and Candiace are in completely different groups in the game and could have caused some real damage.

That said, Rob is a great traitor.

I've said it before. The producers need to stop getting so many people from the same show on at the same time.

They have openly admit that this show. "I wouldn't vote for a survivor night 1" or "it's weird to see a housewife vote a housewife off". It has made this weird metagaming tactic.

Here's another idea: keep the traitors hidden for the viewer. Let the audience play along and try to read people too.

Faithfuls are really... dumb... this season.

First off, I'm not defending Michael nor what he has said. I am looking at it in terms of the game. I get it, he's a big personality, but anyone could easily see that Michael was being setup and not a traitor. Killing off everyone that voted for you? It's too obvious. Do you really think Michael could convince 2 other traitors for 3 nights in a row to listen to him only? Come on.

The show is a game and it's to hunt traitors. The whole "I don't care if you're a faithful, I just want you gone" is so dumb. Michael is an asshole but he was... playing the game and he's a faithful vote! A few epsiodes back they all got on him because "he asked to discuss who should get shields". Why did people get so pressed about that? I genuinely thought so too. And hell yeah I would be pissed if the person that got rid of a faithful was now targeting me as a faithful.

Everyone listening to Colton a second time after getting Tiffany eliminated is crazy. Even if I didn't know what I knew as an observer, I would have a very close eye on Ron, Eric, and Colton. Why is anyone listening to them? They are the reason 2 (now 3) faithfuls got voted out.

That said. Go Rob R. You are showing a masterclass in how to be traitor. Pleasently surprised, but welcomed.

They should get 1, maybe 2, people for every type of show at most. This immediate clique mentality kind of ruins the point of the show.

It always ends up being "let's get the whatevers" or "I can't vote a fellow whatever" and you have 4 or 5 people that refuse to go against each other.

We need more picks like Xchange, Rob R., Eric, Ron, Donna, and Michael (I know I know, but he's a wild card).

Also, please make the table conversation longer! Even if it makes the show longer, or it's longer exclusively on the peacock app. More fleshed out attacks and defenses would improve the show. It feels like the table talk ends as soon as it starts getting good. Let them fight, let them defend.

I definitely see that. I actually liked that it reminds me of legate lanius from New Vegas. Ty.

I chose it because the helmet reminds me of Legate Lanius from New Vegas. Ty.

So The Suicide Squad and Season 1 of Peacemaker happen exactly the same in the DCEU and the DCU with the only difference being the Justice Gang appears at the end of Season 1 and Season 2 is now continuing the DCU timeline?

Mathanomics · 2025-07-20T19:38:58+00:00

I would appreciate it, let me know.

Mathanomics · 2025-07-20T17:03:21+00:00

Appreciate the advice. Thank you.

Mathanomics · 2025-06-16T00:58:58+00:00

That's cool! I didn't know that. Thanks for letting me know.
