The Nomination Pillow has spoken!
Binged the entire first season of the UK show over the weekend - and it helped cement my thoughts that the UK show is way ahead of the US show as being the better of the two.
Due to it leaning completely on those with previous reality TV experience this year, so much of each episodes is spent watching the cast perform to create good TV (especially in the confessionals and in the Traitor Turret). Yes the US show is significantly more confrontational and dramatic, but if thats what I was wanting I'd probably start watching a scripted drama instead.
Unless US has an all "normal people" season, I can't see myself coming back. Seeing all these reality stars together on one show doesn't appeal to me because I've never heard of 90% of them.

I watch a board game channel on you tube and they have had ivan from season one on there a few times - he seems pretty funny - how was he on the traitors? I haven't watched any of them at all and wondering if it is worth tryingBinged the entire first season of the UK show over the weekend - and it helped cement my thoughts that the UK show is way ahead of the US show as being the better of the two.

They’re not bad. Good characters. Show is not being renewed for more seasons, so now they’re pretty much legendary.I watch a board game channel on you tube and they have had ivan from season one on there a few times - he seems pretty funny - how was he on the traitors?

as long as that is legendary in a good way and not legendary in Jalinsky's own mind kind of wayThey’re not bad. Good characters. Show is not being renewed for more seasons, so now they’re pretty much legendary.
Not bothered with the reunion show (don't think I watched last years either) but having cooled off in the final few episodes the finale did deliver. It's amazing really how a format where on paper there are just two possible outcomes of the finale has actually delivered several variations of those outcomes, with what we saw in the US finale something I hadn't seen before (and this is the 8th series I've watched - 2 UK, 2 AU, 1 NZ, 1 Canada, 2 US).
The Scottish castle where the UK and US version is filmed has been booked for filming through to 2030. The next UK series films in May with a celebrity series to film in September. I imagine the US will film between the two.
