Love in the Time of Corona: Freeform actually made a coronavirus TV show

Recent articles

The minute it was clear that the novel coronavirus wasn’t going to disappear at any time soon, a million headings and tweets and email subject lines chose to coin “Love in the Time of Corona” (or some variation of it), a spin on Gabriel García Márquez’s novel Love in the Time of Cholera.

And it was just a matter of time before Love in the Time of Corona ended up being some sort of romantic piece of media, and lo and see– it took place! Freeform debuted the first 30-second teaser of Love in the Time of Corona, a four-part anthology. It will join other romance-themed anthologies focused around events like Love, Actually, Valentine’s Day, and New Year’s Eve, however most likely be a bit more terrible, given that, you know, unsure times and all that.

Do not fret, all of the stars in it do take place to be quarantined together (hey there, celeb couples and households!) and the series was shot using remote technologies.

Love in the Time of Corona stars Leslie Odom Jr. and Nicolette Robinson (a real- life couple) as a couple who have actually been dealing with some issues, however obviously have actually chosen to use this downtime to get it on; Tommy Dorfman and Rainey Qualley (not a real- life couple, however obviously cohabiting) as platonic roomies attempting to find love while separated from the rest of the world; Gil Bellows, Rya Kihlstedt, and their daughter Ava Bellows (a real- life family!) as a family whose daughter is home for college, in spite of the parents being covertly separated; and L. Scott Caldwell as a lady whose husband is not able to return home from his rehabilitation center.

Love in the Time of Corona will be a special two-night minimal event, premiering on Freeform on Aug. 22 at 8 pm ET and Aug. 23 at 8 pm ET. Episodes will be available on Hulu the following day.
