Netflix viewers have confessed to devouring all 34 episodes of a gripping series within days of starting it. The show? Travelers, a science fiction drama that has hooked audiences with its unique premise.
Reddit Thread Sparks Discussion
A Reddit user asked: "What's a Netflix series you finished in a weekend and immediately wished you could watch again for the first time? The kind of show where you blew through the whole thing way too fast, hit the end and felt that specific emptiness of 'well, now what?' Not just bingeable, genuinely good enough that you envy anyone who hasn't seen it yet. What's the series, and what made it impossible to pace yourself with?"
Responses poured in, with many championing Travelers. One person wrote: "Travelers." Another added: "I'm glad I'm not the only one that also picked this series." A third commented: "I always answer Travelers! What a great show. The end just about killed me."
Viewers Can't Stop Rewatching
Many viewers confessed to rewatching the series multiple times. One said: "I've watched Travelers three or four times over the years. Every time I catch something new." Another declared: "I LOVE this show. Binged it twice through."
The Premise and Production
Created by Brad Wright, Travelers stars Eric McCormack, Mackenzie Porter, Jared Abrahamson, Nesta Cooper, Reilly Dolman, and Patrick Gilmore. The first two seasons were co-produced by Netflix and Canadian network Showcase. After season two, Netflix took over sole production and worldwide distribution.
The story is set in a post-apocalyptic future where specially trained operatives known as "travelers" are sent back in time. Their consciousnesses are implanted into the bodies of present-day people on the verge of death, minimizing unintended consequences. The series ended years ago but remains remarkably popular, with new viewers discovering and binge-watching it.
