The Traitors
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.
