Twenty of America's most cunning contestants, a mix of famous faces and everyday Americans, play the ultimate murder mystery game. Hosted by award-winning actor Alan Cumming at an ancient castle in Scotland, they will work together on exhilarating missions to build a prize fund worth up to $250,000. But hidden amongst the Faithful contestants are the Traitors, whose goal is to eliminate the Faithful and claim the prize for themselves. Under the cover of darkness, the Traitors will murder the Faithful one by one in a treacherous spree while the players 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 makes it to the end, they will steal all the money.

Brian L. @blittle39059 4d This was genuinely one of the best played seasons in the entire franchise. <Spoiler Alert> Some will say the faithfuls were clueless, but they were on the right track many times. They were just consistently outplayed and outnumbered at round tables. This wasn’t about bad faithfuls; this came down to possibly the smartest traitor anyone has ever faced. See more Drew H @kia20398420 4d By far the worst season of Traitors. Rob did good but also this has to be the WORST group faithfuls ever. Never could stick on one target and would switch last minute to send home innocent faithfuls. Survivor come get your emmy cause it should not be traitors this year! See more ATL333 T @ATL333 4d Last time watching this fake reality show It's all scripted and this season is following the current propaganda that is rampant. See more Kelly M. @klm1113 Feb 1 Absolutely my guilty pleasure! Could use a few more well known celebrities to spice it up! See more Rand E @Grubo Feb 1 Alan Cumming alone is worth giving this show a chance. Traitors is wonderfully escapist TV, where the viewer is challenged to guess who is voted out of the castle, and what their motivations might be. They keep the seasons fresh by changing up some of the games they play for the money pot, but the intrigue is mostly saved for who will be banished at the round table, and who will be "murdered" (sent home) but the traitors. I do wish they would bering in players who are mostly affiliated with NBC television. See more William H. @wmh.3788 Jan 31 Season 4 is my first experience with Traitors. The concept is very good and I look forward to Thursday’s when episodes are released on Peacock. The plotting and conviction of the players as they attempt to “smoke out“ the traitors is continually interesting to watch. The repercussions are especially sweet in many instances. Alan Cummings is a long-time fav, and he does NOT disappoint here. Traitors is a great wrinkle to competitive reality TV! See more Read all reviews
