The New Season
NBC“Peacock’s Emmy Award-winning competition reality series ‘The Traitors’ will be back next year with an all-new celebrity lineup of 23 reality and pop culture icons set to compete, deceive and bring the heat to the roundtable,” reads the logline for the upcoming season.
“Steering the game with his unrivaled looks and signature wit is beloved host and Emmy Award-winner Alan Cumming, who also serves as executive producer.”
No word yet on when the new season will arrive, other than Peacock’s assertion of sometime in 2027.
‘The Traitors: New Blood’
While awaiting Season 6, fans of the addictive reality hit can head to NBC for “The Traitors: New Blood,” a new iteration of the show that features civilians instead of celebrities, with 22 people culled from more than 60,000 applicants.
“In New Blood, most of the players will be designated as Faithful,” notes NBC.
“But hidden amongst the Faithful are the Traitors, whose sole goal is to move through the game undetected, eliminate the Faithful, and claim the prize for themselves,” the new season’s description continues.
“By the end of the game, if any Traitors remain, they will claim the entire prize pool. (Conversely, if no Traitors remain, the prize pool will be split evenly between all remaining Faithful.) Throughout the game, the Traitors operate under the cover of darkness, electing one Faithful to ‘murder’ each episode as the Faithful attempt to identify the Traitors and banish them from the game,” NBC concludes.
“The Traitors: New Blood” airs Thursdays on NBC.
