Watch The Traitors US Season 3: Preview
If watching more murderously-good gameshows is on your bucket list this year, you’re in luck because January has ushered in a double dose of cloak-and-dagger drama. Following hot on the bloody heels of the all-new season of The Traitors UK, host Alan Cumming will welcome 21 new celebrity guests into his ancient Scottish castle as the US version returns. Can’t wait for the murder, betrayal, and game playing to begin? Read on below for our guide explaining how to watch The Traitors US Season 3 online and stream every episode from anywhere.
Unlike the UK version, the contestants taking part in The Traitors US are (semi) famous faces, often hailing from across the reality TV spectrum, including mentally keen Survivor alumni and the botoxed stars of Bravo's Real Housewives. This year also lumps in a WWE wrestler, Britney Spear’s ex-husband, and British aristocrat Lord Ivar Mountbatten as the latest schemers convene at Ardross Castle.
A few will be anonymously tagged by our sartorially on point host Alan to become “Traitors.” They’re required to “murder” one of the remaining “Faithful” each night, and use all their cunning to deflect their fellow contestants’ suspicions. Should they successfully fly under the radar, they could leave with up to $250,000. But should the “Faithful” identify the murderers and banish them all before the game ends, then they’ll spilt the prize money between them instead.
It’s a compelling game of psychological manipulation and skulduggery, as accusations fly and tempers flare around the Round Table. Alan’s castle in the Scottish Highlands is always a tinderbox of tensions. Things got too intense for heavyweight boxer Deontay Wilder, who left the show early last season, while Survivor star Parvati Shallow executed a breathless “murder” in plain sight, before attempting to throw her fellow Traitor Phaedra under the bus. So you can guarantee there’s tons of high-voltage drama coming up.
Who will win up to $250,000, and who will go home in a tartan body bag? Keep reading for everything we know about how to watch The Traitors Season 3 online and from anywhere in the world.

How to watch The Traitors US from anywhere
If you're a US citizen on vacation or working overseas, you can still watch The Traitors US online just as you would at home.
While services like Peacock block access from IP addresses outside of the US, there's a handy piece of software called a VPN that can change your IP address to make it look like you're accessing streaming services from any country in the world.
For example, US citizens overseas can subscribe to a VPN, join a US-based server and access their subscription from anywhere in the world, just like they would back home.
Step-by-step of using a VPN to unblock:
1. Choose your ideal VPN and install – our go-to recommendation for unblocking is NordVPN, costing from under $3.99 a month with its 2-year plan
2. Connect to a server – for Peacock, you'll want to connect to a server based in the US.
3. Go to the stream you wish to access - for The Traitors US, head to your home streaming service (Peacock in the US, for example.)
How to watch The Traitors US Season 3 online free in the UK
BBC iPlayer is the home of The Traitors US across the pond; however, no Season 3 broadcast date has been confirmed yet. And there could be a substantial wait, given that Season 2 episodes weren't made available until June last year – about six months after the show debuted on Peacock. Once a BBC release date has been firmed up, we’ll let you know here.
Until then, faithful fans of The Traitors UK can watch new Season 3 episodes every Wednesday on BBC One at 9pm GMT, with all prior episodes available to stream live or on-demand on BBC iPlayer, alongside both seasons of The Traitors US and the Australian iteration of the show.
BBC iPlayer is available on a number of devices and it’s absolutely FREE to watch. To create a BBC account, all you need is an email address and a UK postcode (e.g. W1A 1AA), in addition to a valid TV licence.
Currently abroad? Use a VPN to access BBC iPlayer like you would at home.
How to watch The Traitors US Season 3 in Australia
Aussies waiting to see the latest celebrity “Faithfuls” and “Traitors” battling it out at Ardross Castle can expect a short wait. Network 10's free on-demand service 10Play is the place to watch The Traitors US, but no Season 3 release date has been announced yet, and in the past there’s been a lag of six weeks before its Australian premiere.
However, when it does arrive, you’ll want to subscribe to 10Play. It’s free to use and easy to sign up to. Simply create an account with an Australian postcode and then start streaming. Not only are there past episodes of The Traitors US, it’s also home of The Traitors Australia, which ran for two seasons.
Don’t forget, however, that 10Play is geo-locked and available in Australia only. So, if you're from Down Under but away from home, you can simply sign up to a VPN to appear right back at home.
How to watch The Traitors US Season 3 in Canada
Canadian viewers can watch The Traitors US Season 3 with a subscription to Crave from Thursday, January 9, and pretty much in sync with its US broadcast. There’ll be a volley of three episodes available at debut, and subsequent new episodes added weekly from 10pm ET / 7pm PT.
Crave is also home to both seasons of the US version, plus popular international versions of the franchise, for e.g., the UK, Australia, New Zealand, and of course, the Canadian version, whose second season concluded late last year.
Crave plans start from $9.99 a month (+tax) with three plans to choose from. You can also opt to sign up at the annual rate and save, working out at 12 months for the price of 10.
