Peacock’s Emmy-winning reality series “The Traitors” has been renewed for Season 3.
The series, which is the platform’s most watched unscripted original of all time, brings together the witty humor of host Alan Cumming with the deceit and treachery of a celebrity-fueled competition set in the Scottish Highlands.
Contestants work together on a series of missions to build a prize fund worth up to $250,000. But hidden amongst the group, dubbed the Faithful, are traitors whose goal is to eliminate them one by one. If the Faithful contestants banish all the traitors, they will share the prize fund, but if any of the traitors make it to the end, they will steal all the money.
The show’s second season, which premiered Jan. 12, is currently midseason with new episodes streaming each Thursday night at 6 p.m. ET/PT.
