Kin, Traitors and comedy lead new RTÉ season
The return of KIN, RTÉ's biggest-ever Irish drama slate, new home-grown comedy and a second season of The Traitors Ireland are among the highlights of RTÉ's new season of programming.
RTÉ's new season features an impressive line-up of Irish drama and comedy, marking the broadcaster's centenary of public service broadcasting. Over 160 hours of Irish drama are set to air, making it the largest drama slate in RTÉ's history. The season includes the return of KIN, a crime dynasty drama, with a third season confirmed for 2027.
KIN reunites the Kinsella family as tensions threaten their grip on power. Other highlights include a new season of The Traitors Ireland, starring Siobhán McSweeney, and a new series from Hardy Bucks, which follows the middle-aged Castletown gang discovering life has not turned out as expected. RTÉ also features a new documentary featuring former State Pathologist Dr Marie Cassidy investigating Ireland's last witch trial, and a three-part exploration by Irish Olympian Shane Ryan of his decision to compete in the Enhanced Games in Las Vegas.
