S02.E05: A Killer Move
Door County Cherry replied to Door County Cherry's topic in The Traitors (USA)
They probably could murder her but they might not think it's in their best strategic interest. Presumably, since she's new, she doesn't have built up suspicions towards anyone right now. -
I know this is edited so I'm trying not to judge Dan too much for things I may not have seen but for someone who is so good one-on-one, it feels like the only person he has tried to work one-on-one is Pavrati, even before she knew she was recruited to be a traitor.

Yes. Arie kept getting the shield and there were times when people knew and times when they didn't. He just never got targeted with the shield as a faithful and was a traitor the other times he got it. The funny thing about this is they only realized what Pete was doing because he sussed out two of the traitors who could compare notes. But I think Pavrati is ready to sacrifice Dan. -
I think it was a flimsy toss too but this is a little different than lying to a suspect to trick them into believing they have more evidence than they do. The lawyer's argument is that her client was addicted to Adderall and would have said anything when going through withdrawal to get back his access to the drug. If you look at confessions that later were shown to be false confessions, a common circumstance tends to be fatigue or fear and the belief that confessing will bring an end to the uncomfortable situation. For this guy, it was the belief that confessing would get him back his access to the drug. Overall, I really liked this episode. It had some ripped from the headlines stuff like the murder of the tech guy that was originally pinned on street crime but was an actual targeted attack, but it wasn't too on the nose. It talked about philosophical issues with AI as well. In fact, the only thing that would have made this episode better is if we didn't have the false confession and the prosecution was less certain. That said, I have a hard time believing the origin of that video wouldn't have been challenged in court as a chain of custody issue--especially since the guy accused of murdering the victim by the defense is the one who provided the video.

Babylon Berlin - General Discussion
Door County Cherry replied to Meredith Quill's topic in Babylon Berlin
This is upsetting: https://www.whats-on-netflix.com/leaving-soon/babylon-berlin-leaving-netflix-season-4-wont-come-to-netflix/ The first three seasons are leaving Netflix so this is confirmation it won't have Season 4. I just hope this means another streaming network will pick it up. That's the only benefit I see to having the previous seasons coming off of Netflix. -

Yes but I think the reasoning is basically toxic masculinity in that the traitor feels like he wants to be the big dog. Maybe bringing in a Survivor strategy to the Traitors. It doesn't make sense but people don't always make sense.

I don't think she took it back. She said Cheers, gave her the cup and then said 'you keep it.' She then quickly stuffed food in her mouth to make it seem like that was the reason she wasn't drinking. And if you quickly looked at them, it might not be obvious that one was drinking and the other not since they were both putting things in their mouths. It was a Netflix reality series in the vein of a Housewives show in that it's not competition based but rather lifestyle based. It was basically their attempt at doing Crazy Rich Asians as a reality series in that it followed well-off or well-connected Asians and Asian-Americans around LA and NY (for a spinoff).

I don't know. In the beginning, they had him threaten to shoot a guy simply standing around with a knife and they ended his scenes by having him kill another suspect (although more obviously justified that time.) So it felt a bit over-the-top but at least he hasn't gone on any rants yet. I like Reid Scott but I'm very confused by the new creative direction he's supposed to take us. I was hoping they'd use his comedic sensibility a bit more which would help the show but so far he's just there. He and Shaw are okay but don't have the chemistry Shaw had with Cosgrove yet. I didn't mind that they started the episode about free speech but I definitely wish there would have been a twist away from it at the end. I mean there were two people from both sides of this issue willing to commit murder on the streets of New York over it. It felt so ridiculous.

I don't even think the UK airdate has been released yet, has it? -
S02.E03: Murder In Plain Sight
Door County Cherry replied to Door County Cherry's topic in The Traitors (USA)
I don't know one or two of these stars but I've been reading Dan is good one on one. But even one on one his choices are baffling. As soon as they selected Parvati as the new traitor, he kept working her before she knew the others were traitors. You'd think he'd spend more time working non-traitors. It felt like he was trying to set up a TV reveal moment more than playing the long game. -
