After a dramatic and record-breaking second season, “The Traitors” will officially come to a close this week. The finale of “The Traitors” Season 2 will stream on Peacock this Thursday, March 7, finally revealing the season’s Traitors and Faithfuls and who out of the 22 bold-faced contestants will win a portion (or entirety) of the cash prize.
While the first season mixed non-famous cast members with celebrities, the second season of the U.S. version is now solely familiar faces. The concept remains the same: contestants work together on missions to fill their prize pot with up to $250,000. Several “Traitors” are selected by host Alan Cumming at the start of the game, and the rest of the contestants are called the “Faithful.” The Faithful must try to identify who among them is a Traitor, banishing one member in each episode after a roundtable discussion. At the same time, the Traitors murder a Faithful each night, while also working to keep their identities secret. In the end, if the Faithful banish all the Traitors, they’ll split the prize among them all, but if a Traitor makes it to the end, the money is all theirs.
