I really enjoyed NZ but have seen that others didn’t so much.
Mostly a more mature cast (30+), apparently celebrities, some rather tasty men
I really enjoyed the new Zealand versions and found the people who took part to be very down to earth, even though some were celebrities and much more likable than the Australian contestants and I'd say the New Zealand contestants are the closest to us brits in attitude as well.
I have watched 4 series so far and I have enjoyed all of them.
1st Australia Season 1
2nd USA Season 1
3rd UK Season 1
4th Australia Season 2
I even loved the series I have ranked 4th though!
After the current UK series, I am planning on watching USA Season 2 and New Zealand Season 1.
I hated the second Australian version, too many unlikable people in there, Sam was awful and the faithfuls were so thick apart from those who did suspect Sam but they either got banished or murdered for going against him. It had the makings of being a great series but it was ruined by the decent people going out too early.
Completely agree and it was so obvious Sam was a traitor but unfortunately there was some really thick faithfuls who seemed to be under his spell or something which was weird to watch.
There was no twist either to make it difficult for the traitors like killing in plain sight although we know Sam wouldn't have got his own hands dirty 🙄
That cop guy who said he'd solved some of the biggest crimes but couldn't suss out Sam and I remember thinking I'd be too em to stand there and say I was a cop after getting it so wrong with the traitors 🤦
Sarah too was one of dumbest faithfuls I've ever seen and tbh the faithfuls deserved to lose for being so dumb and the only saving grace about the ending was Camille playing Sam at his own game.

Updating now I've watched US Season 3 and notice that I forgot to add UK Season 3
1st Australia Season 1
2nd US Season 3
3rd US Season 1
4th UK Season 2
5th UK Season 1
6th UK Season 3
7th US Season 2
8th Australia Season 2
9th New Zealand Season 1
1st UK Series 1 ( I love the UK series, maybe culturally they just seem to have the edge for me )
2nd UK Series 2
3rd AUS Series 1 ( brilliant cast and some great twists and turns )
4th US Series 2 ( much better than I was expecting! )
5th AUS Series 2 ( despite the ridiculousness of one character and dumbness of the rest, it was entertaining with a great ending )
6th US series 1 ( didnt engage so much with this one and felt Alan was a bit ‘off’ - it felt by S2 that he’d found his feet and was much more of an asset )
Looking forward to NZ hitting iplayer
Updating as have watched quite a few more now!

So will be Celeb Traitors UK and Canada S3 to add in the months ahead, then the new UK and US series in the New Year - then both the New Zealand and Australian versions are expected to return next year too along with a civilian US series on NBC later in the year.
Any Traitors version which includes reality TV stars (let's not call them Celebrities) isn't worth watching, as it's all about the performance and the ego. They know all about each other as they, like most reality 'stars', hop from series to series. Truly unbearable people, being fake for camera time.
UK Celebrity Traitors features actually famous, diverse, people, but suffers from the same problem; they all know each other. A novelty, nothing more.
The best Traitors series are the UK and Ireland - a group of strangers, competing with each other over a couple of weeks, in beautiful locations. It's intense, unpredictable, and brilliant.

Think Celeb Traitors slots into 4th for me. Only three eps in so yet to see how it pans out but Canada S3 probably looking around 9th place ATM.

Just going by Uk series
1. Celeb Traitors
2. UK Series 1
3. UK Series 3
4. UK Series 2
The Celeb version was more fun less intense. The Traitors worked as a team for once and all three were good value. When Alan Carr won there was none of the betrayal of Series 2. Nick and David were like you outplayed us well done. Series 1 you csn agrue that Wilf was happy he did not win, Series 3 actually had Traitors I liked in Minah and Linda but it ended bad tempered sadly. I did not like the end of Series 2, its the game but it was awkward.

Aus 2 is ranked a long way behind the others for me, based off the stupidity of the faithfuls and the behaviour of a certain traitor.
I really enjoyed the new Zealand versions and found the people who took part to be very down to earth, even though some were celebrities and much more likable than the Australian contestants and I'd say the New Zealand contestants are the closest to us brits in attitude as well.
