Are you the kind of person who watches Peacock's hit competition reality series The Traitors (now streaming on Peacock) like it's an immersive experience? Do you armchair quarterback the players with your own live commentary? Do you study the strategy of hardcore gamer players like Rob CesterninoBoston Rob Mariano, or Cirie Fields? And do you binge the Housewives so you can be in the know about the behavior of legends like Phaedra Parks (Married to Medicine) or Lisa Rinna?

How to Watch

Stream The Traitors Thursdays at 9/8c exclusively on Peacock.

Then get off the couch and start planning your The Traitors US application because an upcoming season of the Peacock hit is coming to NBC. And it will be cast entirely with civilians, not reality stars. Coming back full circle with its own origin story, this upcoming season harkens back to The Traitors Season 1 which dropped in 2023 and featured a cast with 10 non-celebs who competed against reality series alumni. 

While this kind of casting levels the playing field for everyone walking into Castle Ardross in the Scottish highlands, the players will still have to navigate the basic game play, sussing out Traitors versus Faithful and adding to the prize pot with challenges that could be worth $250,000.
