Murders and banishments abound on season 3 of Peacock’s “The Traitors.” The reality competition series tasks a group of “faithfuls” with identifying a crew of “traitors” in their midst. At roundtable discussions, the players discuss who they find suspicious and vote to banish one person from the castle.

In a campy fun reality TV show that's all about betrayal and murder, it feels silly to get up in arms about a fake banishment — especially when Bob himself says, "That was just gameplay, baby," in his exit interview. (Host Alan Cumming even reminds everyone that this is all just a game following the banishment.)

After yesterday's episode of The TraitorsSeason 3, we're down six players. After the first three episodes last weeks and now Episode 4, the cast of 23 has been winnowed down to 17

Season 3 of "The Traitors" had its first "traitor" vs. "traitor" showdown. Did the treacherous group cannibalize itself too soon?

The latest season premiered on Peacock Jan. 9 and introduced fans to the initial 21 cast members tasked with adding as much money to their prize pot while avoiding being banished

Unfortunately for Bach Nation, the Bachelor in Paradise bartender became the first player voted out on season 3. Wells tried his best to fit in with the group, but in the end, an accusation from Robyn was enough to send him packing, with Carolyn casting the final vote.

Therefore, I was excited to see some familiar faces, but even more excited to meet some of the players that are new to me. After the first three episodes, I am worried that the show will focus too much on particular characters and others will get very little screen time.

The new episode of "The Traitors" proved that no one in Alan Cumming's castle is safe from betrayal. Not even the traitors themselves.
