Season four of ‘The Traitors’ marked the Housewives-iest season yet. A record five alumnae from Bravo’s ‘Real Housewives’ franchise were cast, and for the first time, two of them — soap actress turned ‘Beverly Hills’ gadabout Lisa Rinna and the loquacious Candiace Dillard Bassett of ‘Potomac’ — were selected to be Traitors together. The Housewives have been a logical feeder system for ‘The Traitors’ for several reasons, not least of which being corporate synergy between Bravo and Peacock. Plus, when it comes to drama, Housewives are self-starters; if there isn’t interpersonal conflict in the castle, they’ll create it, if only to fill a void.
“But after last week’s lackluster reunion, it became clear that the Housewives don’t want to play ‘The Traitors,’” Joe Reid writes. “They want to play ‘The Real Housewives of the Highlands’ and have arguments that spill out into social media, then meet up for a Housewives-style reunion with their patron, Andy Cohen. The contrast this season couldn’t have been clearer: Rob Rausch played a near-perfect game, while Lisa and Candiace made mistakes (as most ‘Traitors’ contestants do, to be fair), then spent the better part of two months telling any Instagram follower or podcast host who would listen about how they were betrayed in a game where that’s *literally the name of the game*.”

🔥 Kristen Kish explains why Rob Rausch had her fooled on The Traitors:
“Rob, now knowing his game, he was very consistent … the consistency, which is the thing that I looked for in everybody, was the thing that I feel like he's exactly who he was from day one.”
this season of #TheTraitors is such a testament to critical thinking being at an all-time low and group think being at an all-time high. The round table is literally useless bc no one can be swayed or compelled to vote differently than they decided to beforehand
Lmao this is what happens when you don’t have pattern recognition skills…they got all the BW out, WHO did you think would be next girlie pop??? She’s lucky Colton floated Stephen’s name before leaving and bought her a week
Full understand Natalie’s anger with these faithfuls
The way they laid her out to dry was disgusting and they deserve to lose…. #TheTraitors#TheTraitorsUS

I didn’t love Tia saying Stacey “married up”
That's implying that someone was… well lesser
It’s giving hierarchy. It’s giving elitism. Not cute, girl! 🚩

I’d actually love to see her gone bc Candiace did her the courtesy of not voting for her and she repaid her by calling it suspicious. Between that and the googly eyes from Rob, she can go
