The Traitors absolutely took over television this year!
Season 2 of the Peacock series was announced back in September of 2023, and premiered on the streamer on January 12.
In the show, contestants worked together on missions to fill their prize pot with up to $250,000. Several “Traitors” were selected by host Alan Cumming at the start of the game, and the rest of the contestants are called the “Faithful.”
The Faithful must try to identify who among them is a Traitor, banishing one member in each episode after a roundtable discussion. At the same time, the Traitors murder a Faithful each night, while also working to keep their identities secret. In the end, if the Faithful banish all the Traitors, they’ll split the prize among them all, but if a Traitor makes it to the end, the money is all theirs.
After the show aired, several stars gained tons of followers.
