What Is The Traitors?
The premise is simple — cast members compete in challenges to add a prize pot, to be shared by the eventual winners. Among the cast are three traitors who “murder” their castmates along the way while trying to evade detection so they can claim the entire prize pot in the end.
The first season of the show featured a mix of game show veterans and civilians, while Season 2 included celebrities and reality show stars. Season 3 will follow the all-star format, with castmates including Bob The Drag Queen, Tom Sandoval, and Wells Adams.
The hit TV show is based on the UK program of the same name, which in turn is based on the Dutch show De Verraders.
