“The Traitors” Season 2 Becomes Peacock’s Most-Watched Reality Series Debut

The Traitors season 2

Peacock’s “The Traitors” Season 2 is currently one of the most shows streaming at the moment and the reality series just hit a huge milestone.

It was just revealed that Season 2 just became the most-watched reality series debut on Peacock. The streaming reach is up more than 75% from Season 1, which took home the Emmy Award this year for Outstanding Casting for a Reality Program.

In the Studio Lambert series, set in an ancient castle in the Scottish Highlands, contestants work together on a series of missions to win up to $250,000. The “Faithful” cast members have one goal — identify the “Traitors” hidden among them, who are trying to steal the prize money at the end for themselves. Each episode features two departures: the Traitors murder a Faithful and the Faithful vote on who they think is a Traitor, banishing them from the castle. In the end, if the Faithful banish all the Traitors, they’ll split the prize fund; if a Traitor (or Traitors) makes it to the end, they steal it all.

Congratulations to the cast and crew!

Synopsis: The Traitors is a nail-biting psychological adventure in which treachery and deceit are the name of the game. Entertainment’s most competitive reality stars and famous faces play the ultimate murder mystery game. Hosted by award-winning actor Alan Cumming at an ancient castle set deep in the Scottish Highlands, contestants work together on a series of exhilarating missions to build a prize fund worth up to $250,000. Hidden amongst the Faithful are the Traitors, whose goal is to eliminate the Faithful and claim the prize for themselves. Under the cover of darkness, the Traitors murder the Faithful one by one in a treacherous spree, while the Faithful try to uncover the Traitors and banish them from the game. If the Faithful contestants banish all the Traitors, they will share the prize fund, but if a Traitor or Traitors makes it to the end, they will steal all the money.
