The Traitors

Spoiler

Looking forward to seeing how this "Secret Traitor" twist works out. I know quite a lot of fans have said they wished they didn't know who the Traitors were: I've never been in that camp (I think that'd make it too much like The Mole, where the viewers don't know who the Mole is), but I think the combination of one Secret Traitor and three non-Secret ones is an interesting compromise!

I watched The Traitors too, the first showing of it on Thursday evening after me and my sister helped my Dad and we saw it at his for something to do. It's quite like a real life gameshow version of Among Us. I'm not fully invested in it but I liked the castle setup and the cloaks for the Traitors when they meet up.

Yeah, I've watched several versions of the show, and I think the UK version is the best one presentation-wise. (Well, tied with the US, but only because they copied the UK setup: it's even filmed at the same castle  )

As for the last thing I watched: I'm currently watching a game show called "The Floor". There's a 9x9 grid with 81 contestants, each with a specialist subject. A contestant is picked to challenge one of their neighbours on their specialist subject - and, whoever loses the challenge is eliminated. This continues until there's only one winner left. 

It's an interesting contest - but, nobody's beaten anyone else at their own specialist subject yet, so I have to wonder how well-balanced it is!

Seems rather broken as the number of contestants dwindles down. I expect someone winning by actually beating someone else to be as rare as someone actually beating the final challenge in Takeshi's Castle.


Last thing I watched was the Resident Evil 9 Showcase that was on a few hours ago. Didn't really reveal much and seemed more like a glorified ad for everything but the actual game.

Watched The Marvels film with my sister and Dad on Monday. My sister keeps getting the bunch of MCU movies she hasn't seen, and this was one I wouldn't have cared if I saw it or not. It was ah....well the switching positions during fighting between the three leads was slightly interesting, that's about it.

The Traitors.

I'm not going to spoil what happened, for anyone who hasn't seen it yet - but, I was happy with the ending !

Okay, maybe I'll put it in spoiler tags:

Spoiler

I honestly thought Stephen was going to stab Rachel in the back at the final vote - but I'm glad he didn't. They both deserved to play IMO: they played a better game than the Faithful this season!

[Mr EliteL]

For The Traitors, I didn't watch to the end. My last episode was way back when a bunch of the contestants were to be trapped in cages, then a number are saved but the remaining ones are up for being removed from the game. I went and watched some clips just now to see how the end and such went.

Spoiler

When Stephen opted to be put in one of them cages willingly, then later some of the Faithfuls were thinking at least one of the Traitors have put themselves in there to try and either keep heat off or to avoid being taken out by a fellow Traitor since they can't do that, plus a Faithful or more had some suspicion on Stephen for that, I thought he may have ultimately screwed himself. Glad to see he got through that, making it to the end with Rachel. I didn't want Fiona to make it, especially sitting on her high horse of being the Secret Traitor over the others. If a Traitor were to win it I'd want it to be between Stephen or Rachel, but them both winning is just brilliant and not having to stab one another in the back.

Francis Bourgeois: Rocket Man

This is one of those programmes that looks like it's made for me . It's a two-parter in which Francis Bourgeois (an online trainspotter) goes into space. As part of this, we get to see his training, as well as the flight itself, and what that involves.

I've only seen the first part, but so far, he's already experienced weightlessness - which it seems was both painful and exhilarating!

Tekken World Tour Finals 2025 Last Chance Qualifier

It ran most of the day, I tuned on my phone here and there, but watched more towards the end. I was rooting for Jeondding (Eddy player), but he was knocked out. Top 8 was when I was watching more, some very good matches. Loser's Final was between two of the best Yoshimitsu's, and probably the best mirror match I've, so I had to root for the winner of that for the Final. Yes even over a King player who waited in the Final, both matches were very close.

Will try and watch the proper Final tournament tomorrow.

I watched the second part of this. 

He ended up not going into space in the end - but, in the process of training to go into space, he did learn an awful lot (in particular, about how dangerous it was). 

To be fair to him, I'm confident I would end up making the same decision. Space travel isn't for the faint of heart!

I didn't know this was even a thing happening, although as I'm watching this I can't say I could probably stomach going here. It's a bit too campy/kid-oriented for me I think.
