The Devil's Plan - Better than The Traitors

Sublime television

They’re all so smart and nice and kind, the games are great, the 10 minute long explainers are cracking, I just love it. Only 4 episodes in.

All of them writing a goodbye card for an eliminated player :face_holding_back_tears:

Spoiler tags please :pleading_face:

Oh shit, sorry !

Absolutely superb show. The explanations in the last two episodes really started to hurt my head, it got so complex.

So many great characters in it! It’s a while since I watched so I can’t remember the names, but I was a big fan of the travel vlogger. The second series is supposed to be coming at some point in the first half of the year but they seem to be taking a lot longer with it than US or UK reality ones that crank out at least one series a year. This is a rare instance where I would welcome some more episodes.

No probs, I love that guy he’s so sweet

Joon-Bin, whom subtitles inform me that Orbit called our little cutie!

I loved how cocky he and Orbit were in episode one like ‘sorry, we ruined your show by being too competent :sunglasses:

Many people are aghast at the recent proliferation of unscripted shows on Netflix but The Devil’s Plan is probably up there amongst my favourite series they’ve ever produced.

Getting my hands on The Genius over a decade ago was quite the ordeal. Delighted with how accessible TDP is.

I used to watch this ultra low budget YouTube series which was heavily influenced by The Genius too.

Roll on season 2.

These shows are good when the challenges are actually interesting/somewhat difficult. Cba watching the Traitors struggle to decipher Roman numerals. The Mole is not as good as TDP but has more complicated tasks and gameplay with sabotage so there’s a bit more to it than people randomly turning cards over and acting like there was a skill to it.

Maybe I just hate The Traitors.

This is a breath of fresh air. Having intelligent and kind people on a reality/game show :exploding_head:

I absolutely love the cast, I’m on episode 6 now and really really like most of them and was gutted when the 2nd and 3rd people were eliminated.
