Guest starring Amber Heard, apparently.
“Have you tried… not being a slayer?” That whole scene was a brilliant stand-in for a traumatic coming out. Buffy might be a campy show about monsters under the bed, but it’s not afraid to dig deep into what makes us scared in the real world. What a season finale! Even a grouch like me couldn’t help but cry a little.

Ok, I see the hype about Spike now.
“Ninety percent of my business is penis enlargement.”
This episode had such a Power Rangers vibe.
The Faithfuls were convinced it was the drink that poisoned someone for no apparent reason. The first thing that came out of Diane's mouth at breakfast was that someone kissed her on the cheek the night before and that it was suspicious. Harry took an opportunity to sink Miles by immediately suggesting coffee or tea, or another drink. If it wasn't for him, the group would have been caught up in the kiss or hug, or whatever else. If only the Traitors stuck together, they could have easily redirected from Miles. Sloppy gameplay, because the Traitors outed one of their own when the danger was small.
This show gets infinitely better when it goes back to the 1950s.
Too much screaming going on in the last few episodes.
Imagine if Aaron dropped the bomb at the end that he was a secret traitor in some last diabolical twist from the show… I almost wish he did.
What a dramatic bunch! Interesting that Alyssa's name finally came up. I'm surprised Alex branded her a traitor without any prior leads. Her reasoning can be applied to both Meryl and Amanda. And yet nobody is suspecting Amanda! Fascinating. Hannah is acting ridiculous about Tom's lies, Maddy is just wild, and everyone needs to leave Aaron alone.
The part where the banished person reveals that they are indeed a faithful is absolutely hilarious. Everyone's reactions! Some observations:
I take it back, Alyssa and Amanda are so good at scheming, it's actually scary. Will is not doing himself any favors. He was much better at the beginning of the show, but he cracked under pressure once his name was dropped. Traitors are doing very well, but Will might become a weak link that takes them all down.
Poor Aaron, he is taking this all to heart! In fact, I think most contestants take this game much too seriously.
John turns from a sweet, friendly guy to a confrontational, "hand-in-your-face" backstabber on a dime... because someone asked him about his job? Okay then.
Maddy calling in FBI, because she thinks she so smart with her theories, is absolute gold.
Alyssa is so bad at concealing her role in this lol. She was just short of cackling like an evil witch, when the blindfold came off.
While Sweden was a predictable winner, I don’t get why people think a meme song is more deserving to win. It was goofy and fun, but on artistry alone, Loreen’s vocals left everyone in the dust. Sorry Finland, I just don’t see it.
My personal favourites were Estonia, Belgium, Cyprus, Iceland, and Australia :heart:
How did Croatia and Serbia make it, and Azerbaijan didn’t? :confounded: Moldova and Sweden deserved a Q.
Rather disappointed with this episode. While it's very well written, I fail to see the purpose of exploring a character and his backstory, if you are going to kill him off in the same episode and not use any of that material for further development. I'm also sad that we did not get to witness the epic banter between Ellie and Bill that was one of the highlights for me from the game. I'm left confused by the choices HBO is making here. We'll see where the rest of it goes.
This episode made me a bit angry. It wasn't funny when Garrett just read out Amy's contract for everyone to hear. It's highly unethical at best to blatantly disclose confidential information at work, and just plain being a dick of a person at worst to do that to your "friend". Garrett is slowly being written into a petty, miserable, and bitter person I'd rather not have around.
More than ever, this finale feels like a formality. The abrupt solo lipsync for the crown, the obviously rehearsed closing move by Camden and Willow, the arbitrary top 2 without any build up. I'm happy with the winner and the runner-up but the episode was obviously unnecessary when the winner had been decided even before Ru stepped on stage.
What a narcissist lol. Of course in her eyes she was too complicated and wild for Big, instead of batsh*t crazy, clingy, and ultimatum-y Carrie she is in reality.
I don’t know how I feel about the entire episode glorifying treasure hunters.
That's who we get for the runner-up? Yikes.... They need to stop carrying the queens who coast on loud and obnoxious.
The lipsync battles used to mean something.
Reminds me a lot of Now You See Me in its style. The creators seem to hope that a paced montage, some suave music, and the lead smugly walking away into the sunset will somehow distract viewers from illogical writing, convoluted situations, and convenient resolutions. It’s entertaining enough, but also kind of insulting to your intelligence. The enjoyment will greatly depend on whether or not you are willing to leave disbelief not only suspended, but shoved completely out of the window.
A heavy hitter of an episode. Fantastic all around.
I don't get why people love this episode. It has great visuals and the world is intriguing, but there is no story. A banal episode of two outcasts coming together and insta love out of sheer loneliness. I would love to see what they could do with a feature length though.
It's what the French call, spicy garbage?
Wait, what? She's seriously being the righteous one right now?
I think I got lactose intolerance from so much cheese.
This show is so full of used up, dusty, laughable romance cliches.
