Launched for the first time on M6 in 2022, the game called Les Traitors quickly met with success. As a reminder, this program brings together personalities gathered within a castle, among whom three traitors have been designated. The others being the loyal ones. The principle follows the rules of the game Werewolves, whose goal is to unmask traitors. Or eliminate the loyal according to your side.
Elimination is decided alternately by the traitors meeting at night and then by a vote between the remaining candidates in the race. Following the success of the first two seasons, a new edition of the program will soon be broadcast on M6. Among the various participants already announced, we find in particular Laurent Ruquier. Host of the show since its launch, Eric Antoine spoke about the participation of his colleague on Saturday May 25, 2024 on RTL.
