Behind everything, Joe Vanella and…
The Traitors: New Blood begins with a major change to the familiar American version of the competition. Instead of reality stars and celebrities walking into Alan Cumming’s Scottish castle with established reputations, 22 everyday Americans arrive knowing almost nothing about one another.

Outlander: Blood of My Blood needed Scotland to perform several different jobs at once. The prequel returns viewers to familiar places such as Castle Leoch and Craigh na Dun, but it also expands the franchise with Lord Lovat’s austere home, the wealthier world of Clan Grant and an entirely separate 20th-century storyline involving Julia and…
