The Traitors won seven Emmys this year, the most for any competition series in a single year, and Peacock gave the show a little present. It has been picked up for three more seasons, with Emmy-winning host Alan Cumming back to run the castle.
Not only did the competition series score seven Emmys for season 4, but it also grew 72% from the previous season. So the renewal is no surprise.
Season 5 premieres next year, which is not part of today’s announcement.
Tomorrow, you can watch the civilian version, The Traitors: New Blood, which premieres on NBC.
NBC is doing an all-civilian cast of The Traitors, and today the network released the first trailer for the competition show.
In the trailer, we get to see if the contestants are as cutthroat as the celebrities on the Peacock version. And they might actually be worse. So, I will be watching as they do whatever it takes to win.
The Traitors: New Blood with host Alan Cumming premieres on September 17th with a two-hour episode.
I love The Traitors on Peacock. I just hate all the annoying reality stars they cast on the show that fake it for the cameras. I guess I am not alone because NBC is airing an all-civilian version.
The concept is so popular that over 60,000 people applied to be one of the 22 contestants, who will be greeted by Alan Cumming at a Scottish castle for a chance to win a lot of money.
The Traitors: New Blood two-hour premiere will debut September 17th. And I can’t wait to see how real people do on the competition series.
After years of hearing about finally getting a sequel to 1997’s Romy and Michele’s High School, we finally got the best update you can get.
20th Century Studios announced, “The reunion you’ve been waiting for! The Romy and Michele sequel is now in production.”
Mira Sorvino and Lisa Kudrow are officially back on the set. The two will be joined once again by Alan Cumming, Janeane Garofalo, Camryn Manheim, and Julia Campbell, along with newcomers Keegan-Michael Key, Rob Huebel, Breckin Meyer, Patrick Warburton, and Nathan Lee Graham.
Romy and Michele’s 2 will stream on Hulu and Disney+.
