The eight-part miniseries benefits from its fairly novel (and thematically complex) historical backdrop, but it develops into one of the year’s best dramas through its rich characterizations. The casting of the leads is a particular achievement. Read full review

It’s not just the sex that makes Fellow Travelers so great. It’s also the show’s ability to use wildly erotic fornication as a tool to increase its emotional resonance. The eight-episode limited series looks and feels like classic prestige TV, earning all eight hours of its runtime thanks to cunning writing, terrific editing, and some of the best lead performances of the year. This is can’t-miss television, brought back from its shallow grave. Read full review

The love between Tim and Hawk is never confused or abandoned for another plotline but woven into the show's other themes expertly. This is one of the best miniseries of the year. Read full review

It’s not particularly groundbreaking in terms of the story it’s telling, but that doesn’t make it feel any less necessary. Read full review

The final three episodes chart the characters' lives through the tumult of the Vietnam War protests in the '60s, the burgeoning gay rights movement in the '70s, and the emergence of the AIDS epidemic in the '80s. .... This somewhat didactic detour dilutes the emotional strength of Travelers' back half, but the bittersweet allure of Hawk and Tim's ill-fated connection sustains until the end. Read full review

If the ending veers toward the trauma buffet that pop culture has finally done away with, it's offset by the swoony love story that grounds the show. Read full review

The messier and more contradictory Nyswaner lets these characters be, the more real they become. Unfortunately, Fellow Travelers drifts in the opposite direction, toward smoothness and bland palatability. Read full review
