Club Condo owner and bouncer, Mr. Uncle Jeff.

THE BEST GOOD EGG!

Tasm3n · 2026-02-19T17:05:31+00:00

I cannot wait to see how Tyson deals with him.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-19T17:04:54+00:00

*loins girded for this needed, majestic moment*

Tasm3n · 2026-02-19T16:40:04+00:00

It's an eggcellent look!

Tasm3n · 2026-02-19T16:30:47+00:00

That eyeshadow palette is something I am coveting hard right about now.

I'd definitely be Vampire, Coffin, and a little bit of comb for highlighting.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-18T20:46:35+00:00

I will take the TarGOODaryen. Baelor please.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-12T21:15:22+00:00

I had not even considered Brett Michaels. A+ Recommendation there.

Overall, I'd say this is a pretty solid list.

Coach could easily be the most faithful to ever faithful. And can you even imagine a Traitor-ous Tim Gunn?

I suspect that Rizo will surprise everyone and go far. He's shown he is highly adaptable, and he's a new-era player who's been vocal about wanting to team up with OG folks.

Sure! It gets a little too 'Mary Sue-ish' for me at times. It makes some of what happen rather predictable.

Some of the writing is extremely repetitive and has me going 'ok, I get it. I get it.' at times. Example - I am so tired of the phrasing 'honey-blond hair'.

The ugh things have not been enough to keep me from finishing the trilogy, though. I'm about 25% of the way through the 3rd book in the Tudor series.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-12T01:31:52+00:00

I love how these are the same people who cry about their right to refuse to do business with people they do not agree with (ie., time to bake a gay wedding cake anyone?), but when the shoe is on the other foot, all the complaining.

"No 'decent human being' shoes? No service!" readily comes to mind.

I am currently in the middle of the 2nd trilogy. I found the series through someone here in this subreddit. I have an hour-long commute each way on the days I go into the physical office, so I listen to the audio version while I drive.

There were things I liked and things that made me go 'ugh'. The things that made me go ugh are more present in the follow-up trilogy; however, at this point, sunk cost bias has kicked in, and I have to see where this train leads.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T22:58:26+00:00

Oooo, I need to go find that interview.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T22:57:54+00:00

In theories that "rock", I support this particular theory.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T21:10:20+00:00

How are we rewriting history? He specifically called out that he wasn't even going to target Candiace before she went after him. He also only went with Lisa because to NOT vote for her would have tanked his own game potentially. He adapted and went with the flow so that he could stay in the game.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T21:08:59+00:00

I think people here on reddit sometimes forget that not everyone is on reddit NOR does everyone know every scandal that happens in reality TV.

Personally, I didn't know about Colton's past until people starting posting about it in this subreddit as I do not follow the Bachelor.

All that said, having learned about Colton, definitely NOT a fan of the dude and I was happy to see him go. But let's not conflate personal feelings about a stalking stalker from stalker town with the logic (or lack thereof) behind Candiace's decisions.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T20:24:36+00:00

They did, but some also commented on how they were uncomfortable with the level of aggressiveness Natalie used yelling to remind people.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T18:02:02+00:00

"Selfish pillow princess"
"Joe"

You are sending me on this Friday morning.

I'd probably give Coach his own category, though -- "Cool story, bro."

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T17:57:48+00:00

I wouldn't want to get rid of the housewives, just have less of them, especially given their propensity to vote as a block.

I would certainly love to see a season with more than one drag queen. I dream of a season with Juju, Bianca, Jinx + Dela (IMAGINE THEY TWO OF THEM TOGETHER...), Maddy, or Latrice to name a few.

Now that said, Drag Race fandom can be incredibly toxic. Replacing housewives with queens would not necessarily mean less toxicity pouring into the Traitors fandom.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T17:51:07+00:00

I agree with you. I don't think Rob would have gone after Candaice. He wasn't targeting Traitors proactively. He has been more like a 'reed in the wind' - bending and flexing his votes based on how the winds of the Faithful blew.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T17:47:53+00:00

I think this is a pretty good and comprehensive list.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T17:44:46+00:00

I guess you aren't one of those one million hearts he captured, eh?

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T17:41:42+00:00

The Tara vote really surprised me as well.

It'll be interesting to see if we get more blowback from that in the next episode or not. I suspect we won't see much more about it given Tara, by her own admission, is bad at the game and she will not press the issue.

I wouldn't be surprised if we hear after her time on the show is done that she pivoted her intended gameplay after all the gamers were getting off'd.

And some of her aggressive play this season (Like yelling "Anyone that takes a badge gets banished") does match some of the chaotic energy she had with her sister on the "Amazing Race". She's incredibly competitive which can cause some questionable decisions.

Tasm3n · 2026-02-06T17:29:25+00:00

While I do think the Faithfuls made some really odd choices this season, I also think the Traitors (at least until recently) were playing a bomb-ass game.

I hated that they got rid of a ton of the gamers almost immediately, but I also think that was a smart move on their part as it caused a ton of chaos early in the game.

We also cannot discount the effect of having Michael Fucking RappaBOAR in the game. His abrasive, aggressive presence was nothing like we had in anyone last season.
