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.
Maura Higgins and Rob Rausch became fan favorites after placing in the top two on this season of The Traitors.
Peacock is taking advantage of their success and giving them their own show. The two will co-host Get Me Out of Here, based on the format of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here.
The series is set in a dense and unforgiving jungle, pairing celebrities with a non-famous friend or family member in the ultimate test of friendship. Stripped of every luxury – and the perks, privileges, and creature comforts of celebrity – duos face a series of physical and psychological challenges, earning rewards to avoid elimination. But here, the celebrities don’t call the shots – instead, they must partner up, taking the lead or deferring to their bestie, all while the treacherous environment takes its toll. Relying on each other like never before, teams must navigate everything the jungle throws their way as their grit, stamina and resilience are pushed to the limit. With their bonds under pressure, the jungle will reveal which celebs can adapt to life without the VIP treatment, and which BFFs can handle being stuck in the jungle with a star. In the end, only one team will be left standing to claim the $100,000 grand prize.
Peacock has a huge series coming soon, and it is The Miniature Wife starring Elizabeth Banks and Matthew Macfadyen.
The actress plays a successful author who is married to a brilliant inventor. His latest invention is shrinking things down to a miniature size. However, when she gets her hands on the gadget, she finds herself 6″ tall and living in a dollhouse. Now, he has to invent a way to get her back to our size before it is too late.
Can their marriage survive this? Can she survive this? Find out when all 10 episodes drop on April 9th.
As a fan of The Incredible Shrinking Wife, I am curious to see how this series plays out. What about you?
Tonight at 9p, the fourth season of The Traitors on Peacock comes to an end. Will Rob Rausch, who has played the game brilliantly, win? Will he be the last Traitor standing? Or will a Faithful finally figure it out?
The episode wasted no time in revealing who the last person murdered this season is. I won’t say it is, but the Traitors made the right decision.
Then it is time for one last challenge to add some extra money to the pot. Again, I won’t tell you what it is, but I will tell you someone does a literal leap of faith.
Next up, it is Round Table time. The final chance to get a Traitor or two. Can they do it?
When they are done, we find out, will it be the Traitors, Rausch and Eric Nam, or the Faithfuls, Johnny Weir, Tara Lipinski, Mark Ballas, and/or Maura Higgins, taking home the money?
All I will say it is the perfect ending to a satisfying season.
And now it is Reunion time… I really hope Ron Funches confronts Dorinda Medley because he said she was abusive to him.
Last week on The Traitors, Traitor Rob voted to banish fellow Traitor Lisa Rinna from the castle, and the final Traitor, Candiace Dillard Bassett, voted to banish Rob. At the end of the night, Rinna was voted out at the Round Table.
Needless to say, Candiace was not happy that fellow Housewife and Traitor, Rinna, was revealed to be a Traitor. So now she is out to get Rob. And Rob is out to get her because she voted for him.
Therefore, they are out to get each other. So they will try to get the Faithfuls to vote for the other one. Will they succeed? You will have to tune into Peacock tonight to find out in one of the greatest episodes of The Traitors to date.
Just when you think you know what is going to happen next, you won’t. Be prepared for lots of surprises during a shocking Round Table!
