Praised by the critics for its gripping plotlines and “insightful, often devastating historical drama” (TIME), Showtime’s Fellow Travelers is the decades-long chronicle of the risky, volatile and steamy relationship between the charismatic and ambitious Hawk and the pious and idealistic Tim, two political staffers who fall in love at the height of the 1950s war on communists, “subversives” and “sexual deviants.” Through the Vietnam War protests of the ’60s, the drug-fueled disco culture of the ’70s and the AIDS crisis of the ’80s, the two men’s affair only intensifies despite the constant threat of being exposed and losing everything.
