Fans are flipping out over Bob the Drag Queen's role in The Traitors season 3
The third season of The Traitors US is finally here, and fans of Bob the Drag Queen are seated after a wild premiere!
If you're unfamiliar with the show, the premise involves gathering an assortment of players, some of whom are selected to be "traitors." Those players "murder" other contestants each night as the rest of the group attempts to figure out who among them is a traitor and who is one of the "faithful." The traitors, of course, attempt to keep their identities a secret and lead the others astray—all with a cash prize in play at the end.
Viewers know who the traitors are from early on, and watching them manipulate and scheme makes up a lot of the fun. This season, former Survivor contestants Carolyn Wiger and Rob Mariano were chosen as traitors, along with Big Brother's Danielle Reyes and... wait for it... RuPaul's Drag Race icon Bob the Drag Queen.
Bob immediately turned out to be a fan-favorite pick in this reality competition, just as he was on RPDR. The fans are losing their minds over this development all over social media.
Admittedly, as the first three episodes played out, there have already been some tough times—as is to be expected.
But it's making for entertaining TV, leaving many praising the decision to make Bob one of the traitors.
