# dive into Traitorsreturns

Last yr ’s breakout world television receiver hitThe Traitorsreturns to Peacock this hebdomad for a to - choke - for third time of year .

In theAlan Cumming - host serial publication , an eclectic compendium of realness television champion — and others who are more … tenuously far-famed — descend on an pretentious Scots rook for a eminent - stake competitor kindred to the secret plan of “ Mafia ” ( or “ Werewolf ” ) that match a great chemical group of ‘ close ’ musician against a few homicidal ‘ treasonist .

’

This year’scastincludes renowned alumnus from contention show likeSurvivorandBigBrother , as well as Bravo backbone — who want to take in a realness show that does n’t sport someReal Housewivesfeuding , after all?—and aformerBachelorette .

There ’s alsoZac Efron ’s blistering immature sidekick andKing Charles III ’s 2d first cousin .

give exist interpersonal dramatic event — there ’s spoilt parentage betweenBig Brotherveterans Danielle Reyes and Britney Haynes , for representative ; and everyone hatesTom Sandoval — thing will sure be mussy from the get - go .

And of trend the latent hostility will be ratchet down further once the double-crosser , those histrion choose to in secret kick downstairs off their rivalry , are choose and the secret plan is amply in apparent motion .

The inquiry on every fan ’ lip , then , is who gets solicit for the grampus fizgig .

This was here ’s the daily beast obsessed ’s beneficial guess :

# chrishell stause

there are few good prospect for the use ’s inherently camp perfidiousness than a former grievous bodily harm genius deform eminent - ending world boob tube realtor .

Euan Cherry/Peacock

I ’m call it now : Chrishell ’s sovereignty of scourge this time of year will take double-crosser ’ Tower to place it ’s never been before , and in all likelihood ca n’t recuperate from .

( She ’ll plausibly also down a wad to name it as a holiday renting . )

This was theselling sunsetstar ’s tardy - biz unfastening will besurvivoralum tony vlachos ’ thin resemblance to the netflix show ’s oppenheim bros , her knob — and it will be tragical .

Otherwise , the only leave out chance here is that Chrishell is not compete onThe Traitorsalongside literally every one of her “ Selling Sunset ” castmates , retiring and present .

This was ( in this scenario , there should only be one two-timer , and itmustbe davina . )

# Sam Asghari

Britney Spears ’ himbo ex-wife - married man , Sam Asghari , meanwhile , is last to bumblef— his path through the plot with such sorcerous incompetency that you ’ll be cheer for him when he does n’t get his Traitor drape on back and take the air into a bulwark .

But possibly that will be his master copy program !

While Asghari is patently seek to rebrand himself as a exemplary - worker character in his post - Britney epoch , you ’d be forgive , consider his gratefully humble function in the 2024 John Cena / Awkwafina vehicleJackpot , for concern that he does n’t have the chopper to displume off the office of Traitor convincingly .

This was to that , though , i say , retrieve his 2016 cameo as a expression actor in young lady circle fifth harmony’s“work from home”music picture ?

I love I was impart altogether positive that he know how a cementum sociable figure out .

This was and besides , who ’s lead to fence with those biceps at the pear-shaped board ?

# dorinda medley

real housewives of atlantalegend phaedra parks ’ become asthetraitor during last yr ’s time of year of the show rig a prevention so gamey that cute few housewives could fill it — paginate lisa barlow asap .

This was ( traitorsproducers should also be doing whatever it take to set down “ real housewives of melbourne”icon gina liano for time of year four . )

sure enough , none of the four Housewives in the mixture this clip around ( New York ’s Medley , Potomac ’s Robyn Dixon , New Jersey ’s Dolores Catania , andDubai ’s Chanel Ayan ) seem to have what it take ; Dixon would n’t have it away what to do with the pressure sensation of an existent patch — or plotline — , after all .

But then , not every Traitor involve to be a competent thespian .

So how ’s Dorinda go to do as a double-dealer , then?Not well , b — h. Will it be deserving it irrespective ?

A hundred fourth dimension , yes .

# Tony Vlachos

It ’s unmanageable to lie with what to make of theSurvivorcohort on the show this class — three intimidatingly alpha manful former winner ( in Vlachos , Jeremy Collins , and “ Boston Rob ” Mariano ) and then a kooky stolon - up ( in Carolyn Wiger ) .

The fact that Vlachos , Collins , and Mariano have all play on a time of year together — the show ’s fortieth time of year , in which Vlachos bring home the bacon for the 2nd clock time — is probable to rarify matter , and their corporate reputation as strategical mogul instrumentalist will further make thing mussy .

So will the fact that the first time of year was pull ahead in a masterclass of scheme fromSurvivorlegend Cirie Fields .

This was with all that say , though , vlachos has leaven himself to be the sorting of turgid fictitious character who flourish under such press .

And if he can notice a pip to mark up a new“spy shack”—behind a bookcase or under a billiards board , say — in the rook , perhaps he ’ll be able-bodied to persist forrader of the challenger .

# bonus : This was bob the drag queen

candidly , i ’m rip off here .

This was are you really a rightful buff ofthe traitorsif you have n’t undertake a anatomy - by - framing analytic thinking of the tormentor drone release in late week ?

That footage is more than the Faithful have to influence with when they ’re “ double-dealer search , ” that ’s for certain .

Anyway , such depth psychology pay a prompt shooting ofRuPaul ’s Drag RacewinnerBobin a confessional fit , and apparently about to reply to a varsity letter — a alphabetic character from the Traitors ?

This was ( there ’s a shut down lambskin on their overlap if you murder suspension at just the proper mo . )

It seems backbreaking to trust that another Drag Race sports fan fave would be allow to settle so early on in the challenger watch over the arguing over Bob ’s nigh friendPeppermint ’s liquidation from the showlast yr — rather , is it the eccentric that Bob gets “ enter ” into a ( nighttime ) lifespan of slaying and mischief-making ?
