Ever since an incident that shut down production, the Bachelor franchise has a drink limit. Peter Weber reveals if Traitors does too. Keep reading for more on his surprising answer.
Why Bachelor Imposed Two-Drink Rule
Alcohol is practically its own character on reality TV shows. Some shows have the booze free-flowing for contestants or stars to enjoy throughout filming. But years before The Real Housewives franchise came under fire for allegedly encouraging the ladies to drink, alcohol was the center of a huge scandal in the Bachelor franchise.
Filming of Season 4 of the Bachelor In Paradise spinoff was briefly shut down in 2017. Corinne Olympios and DeMario Jackson were allegedly drunk and engaged in non-consensual intimate acts.

Trishelle Cannatella is fresh off a major reality TV competition win, following up her lack of wins on The Challenge with a victory on The Traitors 2.
She and fellow MTV star Chris “Ct” Tamburello closed out the show’s second season with the shared win after voting out castmate Mercedes “Mj” Javid at the firepit.
That earned them a prize total of over $200,000 and bragging rights for The Challenge as one of the top reality competition programs on TV.
Viewers haven’t seen competitors from The Challenge cross into other reality TV worlds, but Johnny Bananas seemed to open the door when he went on the debut of E!’s new show House of Villains.
He followed it up by appearing on The Traitors 2 with Trishelle and Ct but had an early exit from the game.

The Challenge may have saved the best for last with their eight-episode Home Turf series as “Captain Save a Show” will finally get the spotlight.
Seven-time winner Johnny Bananas will appear in the eighth and final episode of the YouTube series, which has looked at other cast members, including Cara Maria Sorbello, Ct Tamburello, and Tori Deal.

In a preview clip featuring Bananas, he’s shown driving around his hometown in Fullerton, California, pointing out some of the memorable spots from his past.

The Challenge’s Trishelle Cannatella is fresh off her first-ever win on a reality TV competition show, with a significant victory on The Traitors 2.
She didn’t win alone, as fellow Challenger, five-time champion Chris “Ct” Tamburello also shared in the victory and the $200,000-plus in prize money.
With that, speculation surfaced that the two MTV stars were plotting to win together throughout the season, including them voting the only other remaining Faithful, Mercedes “Mj” Javid, out at the end.
Another rumor that popped up due to Trishelle and Ct’s time on The Traitors 2 involved Trishelle having an affair with her castmate.
Ct appeared on the show following a messy divorce from Lilianet Solares, while Trishelle is currently married.

A secret alliance from The Traitors 2 happened right under the noses of the castle guests.
This alliance may have been a big reason certain people made it to the end of the season.
As Traitors fans already saw, Trishelle Cannatella and Chris “Ct” Tamburello were named the winners.
Trishelle and Ct won just over $200,000 for their efforts in Scotland, and they helped bring some intense drama to the final episode.
Their experiences on The Challenge and in their Real World houses certainly helped them navigate this new reality competition show.
How they became the final two also led to a spicy reunion show with Mercedes “Mj” Javid from Shahs of Sunset lashing out about how she felt she was treated.

Trishelle Cannatella was one of the two winners of The Traitors 2, alongside her fellow MTV star, Chris “Ct” Tamburello.
They were two of the three players from The Challenge who appeared on the second season of Peacock’s show, along with Johnny Bananas.
Their background in reality TV competition helped them with the Traitors as it involves strategy, challenges, betrayal, and backstabbing to outwit opponents.
While Trishelle appeared at The Traitors 2 reunion, she also returned for another appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
During the sit-down interview, she answered questions about her time on MTV’s shows and The Traitors 2.
Among them, she revealed her biggest regret from her reality television career, which unsurprisingly involved a fight with her castmate on The Challenge.

While there are many different reality TV competition shows, Johnny Bananas feels MTV’s The Challenge “doesn’t get the respect it deserves.”
The seven-time winner of MTV’s show was among the cast members for The Traitors 2, which just wrapped up its finale on Peacock.
Appearing with him was familiar castmate Chris “Ct” Tamburello, who was one of two winners of The Traitors 2.
In a surprising finish, Ct shared the prize of over $200,000 with another star from MTV’s Real World and The Challenge, Trishelle Cannatella.
The MTV stars outlasted a starstudded group that included former cast members from Big Brother, Real Housewives, The Bachelor, and Survivor, among others.
Bananas recently had Trishelle on his Death, Taxes & Bananas podcast to discuss the finale and her exciting win, which he was extremely happy to see.

Kate Chastain is good at The Traitors.
That’s why the producers brought the Below Deck alum back for another try.
Kate was a fan-favorite during the first season of The Traitors USA. She was good at spotting Traitors, spoke at Roundtables without a filter, and her efforts to quit the game led to some good television.
When The Traitors 2 premiered, 21 new players were trying to secure that $250,000 cash prize. But midway through the season, Kate was re-inserted on the show, sharking things up for everyone.
Kate started as a Faithful, but as Traitors began getting exposed, Phaedra Parks from Rhoa forced Kate to become a Traitor.
A short time later, Phaedra was eliminated, leaving Kate as the final Traitor standing.
What if Kate had tried to murder someone else?
With only six people left in the game, Kate was tasked with murdering one of the other five players. This...

At The Traitors 2 reunion special, The Challenge stars Trishelle Cannatella and Chris “Ct” Tamburello faced the wrath of their frustrated castmate due to what went down in the reality competition show.
As Monsters and Critics reported, Trishelle and Ct got blasted by Traitors 2 viewers following their shocking decision to vote Mercedes “Mj” Javid out at the end.
While Mj was a Faithful, just like them, it meant she wouldn’t get any of the over $200,000 in prize money. Instead, The Challengers split the prize money as the show’s two winners.
After she was voted out, Mj expressed her disappointment at what her castmates did in a confessional interview during the final episode.
Her outrage over the situation carried into The Traitors 2 reunion special, where she further berated the winners for the outcome.

The Traitors 2 featured Sandra Diaz-Twine as one of two women from Survivor.
While Parvati Shallow was brought on as a Traitor by Dan Gheesling from Big Brother and Phaedra Parks from Rhoa, Sandra played hard as a Faithful.
Sandra also did well by playing herself close to people she suspected of being Traitors. It almost got her to the end.
Sandra was one of the key people in getting Dan, Parvati, and Phaedra eliminated from the game. This was done while ending her Survivor feud with Parvati and developing a friendship with Phaedra.
Future players may view Sandra’s strategy as one that could work, but her downfall was that she didn’t continue fostering her relationship with one particular Faithful.
Peacock viewers watched as Sandra got turned on by someone she considered a friend in the castle. And it has had a lasting impact on her.

‘Traitors’ Winner Chris ‘Ct’ Tamburello: ‘The Game Was Designed to Keep You in a State of Confusion’
To viewers of MTV’s The Challenge, it shouldn’t have been a big surprise that Chris “Ct” Tamburello won the second season of the U.S. incarnation of Traitors alongside his longtime Challenge co-competitor Trishelle Cannatella. He’s appeared on 19 seasons of The Challenge and won $1,365,000 — more than any other contestant in the history of the show. But things looked bleak for the Challenge crew when Johnny “Bananas” Devenanzio was the first Traitors contestant eliminated this season on The Traitors. “Bananas being eliminated so early doesn’t sit well with me,...

The Challenge star Chris “Ct” Tamburello received backlash after appearing on his newest reality TV show, The Traitors 2.
Ct is known for his storied MTV career on The Real World and The Challenge, which included plenty of drama, fights, and occasional backstabbing or betrayal.
In recent years, The Challenge viewers have seen a more mature version of Ct, who even opted to share money with castmates after winning Spies, Lies & Allies with Kaycee Clark.
He took a hiatus from MTV’s competition before returning briefly for an elimination appearance in Season 39, aka Battle For a New Champion. At the same time, he appeared throughout The Traitors Season 2 episodes on Peacock.
Joining him were fellow Challenge stars Trishelle Cannatella and Johnny Bananas.
While Bananas was an early exit, Trishelle and Ct survived with three other contestants into the finale, where The Traitors 2 winners were revealed.

The Traitors 2 came to an epic conclusion this week.
After one final challenge to increase the prize pot, $208,000 was on the line for the Season 2 players.
Chris “Ct” Tamburello gets most of the credit for adding $50,000 in the final Mission, as he put on a show while the other players watched.
The final Traitor of the season was Kate Chastain, who was left alone after Phaedra Parks was Banished on the previous episode.
Phaedra from The Real Housewives of Atlanta and Married to Medicine had recruited Kate from Below Deck. But Kate wasn’t given much choice, as she would have been Murdered had she turned down the request.
People were on to Phaedra for a while, and she got voted out in seventh place. Kate then Murdered Shereé Whitfield from Rhoa to convince people the Bravo women weren’t working together.

Spoiler Alert: This article contains spoilers for the Season 2 finale of “The Traitors,” now streaming on Peacock.
Just like the entire season, “The Traitors” Season 2 finale was jam-packed with drama up until the very end.
After banishing the final traitor, plus two innocent faithfuls, “The Challenge” pals Ct Tamburello and Trishelle Cannatella split the final jackpot of over $200,000.
“Below Deck” star Kate Chastain was the last remaining traitor after “Real Housewives of Atlanta” queen Phaedra Parks was banished in last week’s penultimate episode. However, Kate drew a lot of attention to herself at last week’s roundtable after she piled on Phaedra and called her “more selfish than skillful.”
In her first night as a solo traitor, Kate murdered “Real Housewives of Atlanta” alumni Sheree Whitfield, but the pressure was already high from the remaining faithfuls: “Shahs of Sunset” star Mj Javid, “Survivor” double winner Sandra Diaz-Twine, Ct and Trishelle.

The winner of season two of The Traitors has been revealed!
The Peacock reality competition series, hosted by Alan Cumming, has been a huge hit for the streaming service and fans have been loving this season.
In the show, contestants worked together on missions to fill their prize pot with up to $250,000. Several “Traitors” were selected by Alan 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.
So, who won?...

There are many lessons to be gleaned from Season Two of The Traitors, Peacock’s smash hit reality TV competition based on the parlor game Mafia: 1) that you should never drink from an ominous-looking rusty chalice, particularly if it has been offered to you by a notoriously cutthroat former Survivor contestant; 2) that virtually everyone looks cool in emerald-green velvet cloaks; and 3) that Peacock has an insanely high budget for both breakfast pastries and Alan Cumming’s headgear.

When “The Traitors” Season 2 finale drops Thursday, March 7 on Peacock, the game will finally swing in favor of the faithfuls and their faction will likely be victorious. Though Phaedra Parks dominated the Round Table for the traitors week after week, she was finally banished on February 29, leaving her final recruit Kate Chastain as the last traitor standing against five faithfuls: Chris “C.T.” Tamburello, Mercedes “Mj” Javid, Sandra Diaz-Twine, Shereé Whitfield and Trishelle Cannatella.

Two MTV legends have made it to the season finale of The Traitors 2.
Long before Trishelle Cannatella and Chris “Ct” Tamburello joined the Peacock reality competition show, they had careers on MTV.

Trishelle appeared on The Gauntlet, The Inferno, Battle of the Seasons, Rival II, and All Stars I. She even made it to the finals of Battle of the Seasons.
Ct got his stars on The Real World: Paris before dipping his toe into the world of reality competition shows.

Since none of the cast members were eliminated during last week’s episode of “The Traitors,” that meant we still had two traitors and 10 faithfuls running around the castle at the start of this week’s hour. The episode began with Phaedra Parks and Parvati Shallow considering whom to murder, with their only possible choices being Trishelle Cannatella, Carsten “Bergie” Bergersen, Mercedes “Mj” Javid and Kate Chastain.

Peacock’s Emmy Award-winning adventure of treachery and deceit will return for Season 3 according to a recent press release. The hit TV show hosted by Alan Cumming won the Best Casting for a Reality Program Emmy after Season 1, where we saw “Survivor” legend Cirie Fields murder her way to a $250,000 paycheck. While the cast for Season 3 is still under wraps, the streamer has confirmed Cumming will return as host.
Season 2 of “The Traitors” premiered January 12, 2024 and quickly became Peacock’s most watched unscripted series of all time. Hosted by Cumming at an ancient castle set deep in the Scottish Highlands, contestants work together on a series of exhilarating missions to build a prize fund worth up to $250,000. Hidden amongst the Faithful are the Traitors, whose goal is to eliminate the Faithful and claim the prize for themselves.

When the cast for Season 2 of “The Traitors” was announced by Peacock, some names jumped out to reality TV junkies as the ones to watch. Who would expect the likes of Johnny “Bananas” Devenanzio, Maksim “Maks” Chmerkovskiy, Janelle Pierzina, and Dan Gheesling to be booted out so early in the process? Furthermore, who would have thought icons like Trishelle Cannatella, Sandra Diaz-Twine, Parvati Shallow (a traitor herself), and Chris “Ct” Tamburello would be overshadowed and outplayed by two stars coming from non-competition shows: “Real Housewives of Atlanta’s” Phaedra Parks and “The Bachelor’s” Peter Weber?
When Phaedra was chosen as a traitor, many questioned how successful she would be in the role compared to Dan and Parvati, who were already known for their villainous pasts and winning ways on “Big Brother” and “Survivor,” respectively. Turns out, she is easily the most adept in the role and seems unafraid to make big moves,...

A new episode of The Traitors Season 2 aired on Thursday night.
Another player got eliminated, thinning the pool of guests at the castle.
Just as a reminder, Tamra Judge was murdered, and Janelle Pierzina was banished in the previous episode.
Janelle had called out Dan Gheesling as a Traitor (she was right), but Dan shifted the spotlight to Janelle.
Despite several people pushing for the Faithfuls to vote out Dan, Janelle got eliminated.
Janelle had also called out Survivor’s Sandra Diaz-Twine and Ct from The Real World and The Challenge. Sandra and Janelle then exchanged personal attacks at the Roundtable.
In an exit interview, Janelle revealed she had also called out Survivor winner Parvati Shallow. That segment wasn’t shown during the episode.

Dan Gheesling may be doomed on The Traitors 2.
The former Big Brother winner may have made several critical mistakes. Now, he is in the spotlight and may get Banished.
Dan was chosen as one of the two Traitors by host Alan Cumming this season. He was teamed up with Phaedra Parks from The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
Phaedra and Dan picked Survivor’s Parvati Shallow to become the third Traitor with them.
Choosing Parvati has led to some great television, and she is good at being a Traitor, but did Dan make a mistake by not going with Big Brother’s Janelle Pierzina?
Janelle teased Dan on social media about not naming her a Traitor, which could have kept her from targeting him at the recent Roundtable.

Four players went after Dan at the last Roundtable, naming him someone who could be a Traitor.

Midway through the fifth episode of “The Traitors” Season 2, host Alan Cumming made good on his promise to increase the number of cast members when he welcomed back one iconic villain from the first season. “This game started with one player missing,” he teased in his trademark Scottish accent. Warning: this item contains spoilers from Episode 5, “A Killer Move,” so read at your own risk!
Shocking everyone (including viewers at home), Kate Chastain returned to the castle in epic style during the January 25 episode and immediately promised to “f*** up some s***.” The “Below Deck” star had a memorable run during “The Traitors” Season 1 when she made it to fifth place, often sparring with “Big Brother’s” Rachel Reilly along the way. “Well, I’m back. Did you miss me?” she asked the audience coyly.

Spoiler Alert: This story contains spoilers from the first four episodes of “The Traitors,” now streaming on Peacock.
Ever since both the BBC and Peacock adapted the Dutch series “De Verraders” into “The Traitors,” it’s been a hit. Both produced by Studio Lambert, the U.K. version premiered on the BBC in November 2022, with the U.S. version dropping on the NBCUniversal streamer Peacock less than two months later.
After 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 must 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...

In its first five days on the platform, “The Traitors” Season 2 has become the most-watched reality series debut on Peacock. The streaming reach is up more than 75% from Season 1, which took home the Emmy Award this year for Outstanding Casting for a Reality Program.
The first three episodes of the second season, hosted by Alan Cumming, debuted on Jan. 12. Not only did the number of viewers surpass the premiere of the first season, it also topped the platform’s other reality titles, including “The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip,” “Love Island USA,” “Love Island Games” and “Queens Court.”
In the Studio Lambert series, set in an ancient castle in the Scottish Highlands, contestants work together on a series of missions to win up to $250,000. The “Faithful” cast members have one goal — identify the “Traitors” hidden among them, who are trying to steal the prize money at the end for themselves.

“The Traitors” season 2 premiered with the first three episodes airing on Peacock beginning Friday, January 12. In episode 1, “Big Brother” winner Dan Gheesling and “Real Housewives of Atlanta” legend Phaedra Parks were chosen by Alan Cumming as the original traitors.

Twenty-one reality TV and pro sports stars are about to participate in the diabolical second season of The Traitors, and for some its players, the competition will include some real blasts from the past. Luckily for former Big Brother houseguests Janelle Pierzina and Dan Gheesling, their reunion was far less dramatic than their Challenge and Survivor counterparts, despite Dan voting to evict Janelle on their last show together.
“I never blamed Dan for my eviction, ever,” Pierzina tells TVLine. “We always wanted to work together, so I was actually pretty pumped to see him because I was excited to start a new chapter.

The new year is a great time to be a subscriber to Peacock as not only is the NBCUniversal streaming service home to great movies and buzzy originals, but it also is the streaming home to the NBC on NFL, which for the first time ever, will include a Peacock-exclusive Wild Card game.
