Traitors season 5 cast just dropped — who are you actually excited to watch?
The celebrity cast for The Traitors season 5 was announced and wow, it's stacked — Kristin Chenoweth, Taylor Hale, Bianca Del Rio, Dominic Monaghan, Chloe Kim, plus a bunch of Survivor/Big Brother/Challenge people. I loved last season but some cast members were just there to look pretty, you know? Who do you think will actually be good at the game — like strategic and sneaky — versus just famous? I need someone to root for before it premieres.

- Taylor Hale — she's the only one who's actually played to win
Half that cast is there for camera time. Taylor Hale won Big Brother 24 — she's the only person on that list who has actually survived a full social-strategy game on TV. Bianca Del Rio is hilarious but comedy queens get targeted early in these games. The Survivor/Challenge people (Michele Fitzgerald, Rachel Robinson, Q) know competition formats but they've never done the roundtable lying game. My money: Hale either goes deep as a Faithful or gets murdered night one because everyone's scared of her. Either way she's the most interesting watch on that list.
- one month of the Peacock ad tier after the finale
Nobody should pay year-round for a weekly reality show. Wait until the last episode airs, buy one month of the ad tier, binge the whole season in a weekend, cancel. I've done this for three seasons of Traitors — under $10 total. The cast list means nothing until you see how they actually play.
