SHOWTIME RENEWS THE AFFAIR FOR A FIFTH AND FINAL SEASON

LOS ANGELES – July 26, 2018 – SHOWTIME has renewed its Golden Globe® Award winning drama series THE AFFAIR for a fifth and final season. Season four of the series is currently airing on Sundays at 9 p.m. ET/PT, with the finale airing on August 19. The announcement was made today by Gary Levine, President of Programming, Showtime Networks Inc.

“We love the intimacy, the nuance and the emotional honesty of THE AFFAIR’s subjective examination of both infidelity and fidelity,” Levine said. “Sarah Treem has always envisioned this as a five-season series, and we will be fascinated to see where she takes her talented cast and all of us next year in its climactic season.”

THE AFFAIR explores the emotional and psychological effects of an affair that destroyed two marriages, and the crime that brings these individuals back together. Season four finds Noah (Golden Globe nominee Dominic West), Helen (Golden Globe winner Maura Tierney), Alison (Golden Globe winner Ruth Wilson) and Cole (Screen Actors Guild®Award nominee Joshua Jackson) in their own orbits, alienated from each other, spinning further and further away from where they all began. Every character is involved in a new relationship, forcing them each to decide if they’re ready and willing to leave the past behind for good – with a season about new beginnings, tragic ends and the ever-elusive possibility of forgiveness. Sanaa Lathan (Shots Fired) guest stars as Janelle, the tough-as-nails principal of the charter school where Noah teaches. Their professional relationship soon turns intimate and is further complicated by the presence of her brilliant, misunderstood son Antoine, a student in his class played by guest star Christopher Meyer (The Fosters). Ramon Rodriguez (Iron Fist) guest stars as Ben, a Marine veteran now employed by the VHA and Alison’s new love interest. Additional season four guest stars include Russell Hornsby (Grimm), Amy Irving (Yentl) and Phoebe Tonkin (The Vampire Diaries). Writers Guild Award-winning playwright and writer/producer Sarah Treem (House of Cards, In Treatment) and Hagai Levi (In Treatment) created the series. Treem, also the showrunner, and Levi serve as executive producers. Jessica Rhoades joined as executive producer on season four.

SHOWTIME is currently available to subscribers via cable, DBS and telco providers, and as a stand-alone streaming service through Apple®, Roku®, Amazon, Google, Xbox One and Samsung. Consumers can also subscribe to SHOWTIME via Hulu, YouTube TV, Sling TV, Sony PlayStation™ Vue, DirecTV Now and Amazon Channels.

I was so upset with the way they ended the affair I can’t begin to tell you. It was like the Raiders just want to get it over with. How do you take characters that spend time together and they all didn’t know Allison. No one would realize that she never would commit suicide because of her love for her daughter. How whack a doodle mother who should know her daughter would never leave her child would not commit suicide. And a mother would always want to be buried with her child not cremated alone. And then you take the… Read more »

Cheryl there is a final season still. Season five coming in the summer of 2019 will be the last one. The actual Season Series Finale.
As far as I remember No one believed she would kill herself except the detective, who was a jerk anyway.

I was so disappointed with the writer on how they ended Allison. I thought I would get over a days after but it still pisses me off with the lack of insight you let these people have and letting her think that Allison committed suicide. It’s like “what no one really knew Allison” “that she would never leave her daughter” therefore not committing suicide especially in the ocean. What was her mother oblivious to how much she loved her daughter and just a plain whack a doodle?! The detective thought he knew had just because the way back she had… Read more »

I love this series and can’t wait for the final season. Not sure how a season 5 of about 10-12 episodes can work without Alison. I hope that Ben gets punished somehow.

Exactly!! I was hoping in episode 9 that there would a twist and that Allison hadn’t been killed but now I am absolutely devastated she’s dead!! Maybe the writers can do something to bring her back?? I feel betrayed…
