It doesn't have much to do with celebrity traitors; more about human behaviours but I'm tagging it anyway because... you know, filters.
I've endured the second episode of the show, still didn't enjoy it but some observations:
1. Some of those celebrities has an image to keep so they treat it like a parlour game.
2. Some just couldn't get out of their MOs
3. Appreciate James Blunt's action plan - simple, actionable, moderately efficient. His military training has moulded him well.
4, Hannah Fry seems to assume people are logical, like some economists. Every action is calculated, every intent serves a bigger objective - what a tender world that would be.
5. Actors are not necessary competent liars. They are more capable at performing a wider range of roles within a set time frame; whereas comedians can wear their stage persona for a long period of time.
6. The show could be attractive to some viewers because they are showing who the traitors are to the other side of the screen, so every players seem stupider than them.
7. The game plays heavily on human's behaviour of finding patterns when there is none.
8. I might watch again if Victoria Coren, David Mitchell, Lee Mack, Ria Lina, or Reece Shearsmith participate.
9. Hannah Fry is likely going to be out in the next two "games" or "tables"; I still don't know how the game works but it's unlikely for anyone to be logical enough and quick enough to process the information of 20 contestants. No matter she is out as the next pick she's likely going to be considered a threat.
Anyway, I don't think I'll enjoy another episode.
