How many episodes are in Fellow Travelers on Showtime?
Are you ready for a story that’s a historical romance and political thriller all in one? Because that’s what we’re getting in Fellow Travelers, now streaming on Paramount+ and coming to Showtime on Sunday, Oct. 29, 2023 at 9 p.m. ET. So how many episodes can we expect this season?
Fellow Travelers is billed as a limited series and has a total of eight episodes. One new installment will be released weekly until the finale. Since new episodes first debut on Paramount+ on Fridays, followed by their broadcast on Showtime, there’s two finale dates technically. We’ll get into those details below. But for now, we’ve shared the episode titles for each episode:
- Episode 1, “You’re Wonderful”
- Episode 2, “Bulletproof”
- Episode 3, “Hit Me”
- Episode 4 (still unknown)
- Episode 5, “Promise You Won’t Write”
- Episode 6, “Beyond Measure”
- Episode 7, “White Nights”
- Episode 8, “Make It Easy”
The series, based on the book by Thomas Mallon, sees the love story of two men – charismatic and work-driven Hawkins Fuller (Matt Bomer) and idealistic and pious Tim Laughlin (Jonathan Bailey). The two fall in love during a dangerous time, as U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy and prosecutor Roy Cohn “declare war on subversives and sexual deviants,” according to the synopsis. The story takes place across four decades, starting in the ’50s and through the ’80s.
With new episodes coming out on two different platforms, it might be hard for you to keep up. Well, don’t you worry. That’s what I’m here for! We share the episode release schedule below.
