Fun list! I personally couldn't stand Matt from AU1, though I can see why you appreciate him as a character. I would've swapped him for Brodie from NZ1. She made traitor hunting fun and it was exciting to see someone be so successful at it!
My personal favourite faithful non-winners per season, in the order I watched UK 1: Fay - I felt like she was someone who was going to get banished early on but seeing her manage to overcome that and have good game insight was really entertaining for me Amos - LOVELY LOVELY GUY and solid game insight Andrea - I honestly just loved her, she was so sweet and it wasn't really the game for her but I loved her all the same (her confessional where she talked about her dead partner also really hit me hard) Ivan - I can't really explain this one but I think I found him kind of relatable in his enthusiasm for the game, and he was clearly quite smart. He just got fucked over by Tom (Honourable mention, Rayan is awesome on Twitter even though he didn't bring much to the show) US 1: Kate - Obviously! Initially I actually didn't like her and felt her attitude was muddying the game but what made me love her was her arc as the season progressed. Seeing her start to care and perform well in challenges and make an effort was honestly awesome, especially with how gracious she was upon being voted out. Her rivalry with Rachel was great too. Michael - Oh Michael, I wanted him to do well so badly because he was so entertaining and charismatic but he absolutely FUCKED his game, bless him. Andie - I really empathised with their personal situation and I actually think they were a better player than the show made it out to be. No one suspected them, and off-camera it was agreed that Cirie would be the one to throw Arie under the bus so it's not like they didn't KNOW there had to be a traitor, despite voting to end the game. Ryan - Seeing the juxtaposition of this big strong stoic dude be super enthusiastic and joyous in confessionals was so fun. AU 1: Teresa - QUEEN. Funny as hell, full of life and so so entertaining. Midy - Smart as hell and engagingly strategic, would have loved to see him last longer. Dirk - Witty and entertaining, he got done dirty by a comment taken out of context! Lewis - Just one of those naturally likeable guys. I enjoyed his presence a lot and felt like he had a humble kind of charisma you don't see too often in reality TV. Paul - Yes. Unironically. This man fascinates me, the biggest reality TV mystery. I know why he was cut, but I want to SEE IT damn it! UK 2: Diane - The Queen of the season. Her dynamic with Ross was such gold and her send-off was fittingly grand. Jaz - The best PLAYER ever, hands down. He should have won and I don't think it was fair for Mollie to have changed her vote once it was done. ROBBED KING. Evie - Another great player who got screwed over by circumstances out of her control. I honestly think she played strong enough of a game to earn a win. Charlie - Absolutely hilarious and so so lovable. Had some of my favourite confessionals of the series. Meg - Another slightly odd pick that I can't really explain. I think I found her relatable, and would have lasted at least one more episode had it not been for the apPauling (ha) decision to put two traitors in the dungeon. She had some pretty funny confessionals too. AU 2: Oh boy. Luke - Although he blew up his game, I do think he had some of the best reads of any faithful we've ever seen, as well as the strategic mind to make it really far. I was worried when he was giving information to Ashe at the beginning but when he revealed in his confessional that he suspected she was a traitor and was keeping her on side I was like YES!! THAT'S THE LUKE I KNOW AND LOVE BABY. He clocked ALL THREE TRAITORS. KING Annabelle - more or less the same as Luke really, although she had the added element of sass compared with Luke who was naturally likeable in a different way. Gloria - I liked Gloria! I thought she was funny (she had one of my favourite confessionals of the series), her outfits were GORGEOUS and she clocked both Sam and Blake, she was just more dead-set on Blake. Her banishment was actually agonising and probably the worst out of all of them because I really believed she had it that time! US 2: John - As a Brit seeing John motherfucking Bercow on The Traitors was unreal in and of itself, but he was exactly what you'd hope him to be. Sandra - Played the game innovatively and was a badass doing it. Queen. Bergie - I really enjoyed his arc on the series and I thought he was really sweet Peppermint - They did her so so dirty
Paul was actually fascinating to see someone get purpled that bad.
oh how i wish jaz managed to win the traitors UK season 2
Same here
KING PAUL LMAOOOOO BEANS 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I’ve been waiting for this video! I love Annabelle and Luke!!!!
I love Annabel. She is my winner. Was sad when she left. Tears. I am with you on that.
The only thing that would have made UK season 2 better is if Alex had returned for a second chance since Tom ruined her whole game in S1
It’s always a good day when Beans uploads WOOOO!
justice for anabel and luke. the only watchable faithfuls(in aus 2).
Jazatha Christie 🔛🔝
