 RATINGS UK REVIEW: THE TRAITORS US With the runaway success of the UK version just a few weeks ago, fans were eager to get their fill on the new hit show as it takes off overseas. With pressure to perform, and the knowledge that the series shared many, many similarities, did it succeed or was it a traitor to its loyal fanbase? DISCLAIMER: Although I will try to keep major spoilers out of this review, there may be snippets throughout that give away key facts about the show and the playthrough, so be aware for minor spoilers . Any sources mentioned will be linked throughout the post. All views expressed are my own, and this post is not endorsed by the BBC or anyone involved with the show.  With the announcement of the BBC's bid to air the US version of this gloomy, Scottish highland murder mystery, many of us were elated to know we'd be able to watch another series, and another group of people battle it out in the latest psychological reality series. However, with a mix o...

Hello everyone! Over the past few years, I have grown this account as much as possible, but as I am still growing, it is apparent to me that I must make some slight alterations in the data I provide to stay within the limitations from outside parties. I do pay a small fee to access such data, but the limit in which I can share any of this is strict. With some recent posts, I fear this line of limitation may have been crossed; I will say I can’t say whether it actually has or not, but from personal reflection I feel I’m being risky. As a result, I will be limiting the amount of data published in the form of charts and graphs: apart from the official data available from BARB which has more clarity on redistribution.  This will therefore affect overnight data and non-platform data mostly. I will be limiting the amount of charts released, and honing in on new ways to present this data whilst following stricter fair use ideals.  As always, I urge my fabulous followers to show suppo...

Hello everyone! Have a great 2023! Hello there! It’s me, the owner of @Ratings_UK, and I’m here to wish each and every one of you a very happy new year! I also thought it would be a great time to share a little message from the heart with you all. Don’t worry, it won’t get too soppy! As some of you may know, this account is run by one person, me, the nameless writer behind it all, and this account has been my child for nearly 8 years now. I couldn’t have done it without the ongoing support, interaction, and appreciation from each and every follower I have. You have no idea how much it means to see so many people coming to me for their ratings fix. I have studied, worked at, edited, and followed tv ratings for as long as I can remember, way before this account even became a thought in my mind. All of my data comes from official sources, brought to you with love, appreciation, and joy! I take pride in the service I deliver, and hope everyone enjoys what I have to offer. From the sour...
