The Traitors : Its Among Us but IRL

The Netherlands, the birthplace of Big Brother and The Voice, is where The Traitors originated. Now we have the Traitors, the new reality tv export coming to out screens.

This reality show had already established a lucrative franchise in other countries. Peacock, the streaming service, is now making an Americanized version of the hit Reality Show. This competition, which is based on the phenomenally successful videogame Among Us. Now we will have a competition in television form.

A total of twenty contestants will reside in a Scottish castle. They are there in hopes of winning a total of $250,000. They must first overcome a number of obstacles, each of which has the potential to endanger their say on the game. However, there is a catch: there are three traitors among them who will ensure their failure. They will have an easier time if they can get rid of the traitors at the end of each episode, and someone will be sent away at the end of each episode.. Will the faithfuls eliminate the traitors or will they end up cannibalizing one of their own?

I wonder what kind of edit Stephenie will have on this show. In Survivor Palau she is this tragic hero who was the last member of tribe to reach the merge because her tribe lost every single immunity challenge. In Survivor Guatemala she was this villain who got corrupted by power and became arrogant, she was also discriminatory to female contestants. In Survivor Heroes vs Villains she was a victim of injury and got voted off before the merge. I am Glad The self proclaimed Oprah in a Gangsta suit, Cirie is back!

Are the contestants all came from reality shows or are we going to have newbies too?

No there are some contestants who have The Traitors as their first reality show. The crossover contestants are just there for ratings.

If I am there I will vote off the Big Brother and Survivor contestants right away, They had experience on backstabbing people. SO I don't care if they are not the traitor.

So a person will be eliminated every episode? This is like a combination of The Mole, Big Brother and Murder at Small Town X.

Just watched the first episode and it looks fun. It does feel like a real life Among Us. I am rooting for Cirie because I know what she is capable to do.
