Fans of The Nevers will soon have their extreme patience rewarded, when all 12 episodes of the HBO fantasy drama – including six that have yet to be seen anywhere – stream on Tubi beginning this Monday, Feb. 13.
What’s more, not only can TVLine exclusively detail the full, 12-episode premiere schedule, but executive producer and showrunner Philippa Goslett even answered a few of our burning Qs (all shared below).
Set during the last years of Victoria’s reign, The Nevers is about London that is beset by the “Touched” – people, mostly women, who suddenly manifest abnormal abilities. Some charming, some very disturbing. Among the Touched are Amalia True (played by Laura Donnelly), a mysterious, quick-fisted widow, and Penance Adair (Ann Skelly), a brilliant young inventor. These two are the champions of this new underclass, making a home for the Touched, while fighting the forces of … well, pretty much all the forces”!… to make room for those whom history as we know it has no place.
The cast of The Nevers also includes Olivia Williams, James Norton, Tom Riley, Rochelle Neil, Eleanor Tomlinson, Amy Manson, Pip Torrens, Denis O’Hare, Zackary Momoh, Elizabeth Berrington, Kiran Sawar, Anna Devlin, Viola Prettejohn, Ella Smith, Nick Frost, and Ben Chaplin. And in addition to Goslett, the series’ EPs included creator Joss Whedon, Ilene Landress, Doug Petrie, Jane Espenson, Andrew Bernstein, Daniel S. Kaminsky and Peter Calloway.
Tubi is a free, ad-supported streaming (FAST)/AVOD service that offers over 48,000 movies and TV shows, including a growing library of Tubi Originals, plus 200-plus local and live news and sports channels. And in addition to hosting The Nevers‘ full season, Tubi recently closed a deal to stream for free all seasons of Westworld, Raised by Wolves, The Time Traveler’s Wife and other Waner Bros. Discovery series that abrubtly disappeared from HBO Max late last year.

THE NEVERS Q&A: Philippa Goslett, Executive Producer
In conjunction with TVLine’s exclusive reveal of The Nevers release plan on Tubi, we invited showrunner Philippa Goslett to answer a few questions that the first half of the season left us with… and to teaser the finale.
TVLINE | The last episode that aired (May 16, 2021, on HBO) was a complete departure from everything we’d seen before – futuristic and confusing. It revealed that Amalia True was really a “stripe” named Zephyr whose consciousness (maybe?) had been somehow transferred to the body of an old-timey Brit. At the end of that episode, True told Adair that it was time to tell the girls at the school everything, including about “the fight that’s coming.” What can you tell us about that fight?
GOSLETT | Yes, six (written by Jane Espenson and directed by Zetna Fuentes) was an intense episode! Up until then it looked like Amalia’s mission was to save the Touched of Victorian London, but now we know it may also be mysteriously linked to the future of humanity itself. Meanwhile, the stakes of the here and now in 1899 are sky high, and there’s still that glowing entity under London to be considered… However, whatever Amalia imagines the coming fight is going to be pales in comparison with the actual deep conflict she will have to face over the next half of the series.
TVLINE | I’m also interested to know whether the new episodes will at all ease viewers – who won’t have seen the show since Spring 2021 – back into the story at all, or if it’ll jyst chug along and trust that people will be able to keep up.
The new episodes will continue with many of the storylines set up in the first hgalf of the show (which will also be streaming on Tubi), so a rewatch of those would be ideal. But Epiosode 7 will ease you in to some degree. After all, Amalia did promise to tell the orphans the truth about “everything” … for better of for worse.
TVLINE | Can you tease anything about the flashback that took place toward the end of the last episode that aired. I’m particularly interested in the “Did you think you were the only one who hitched a ride?” part. Does this mean that there are others who are from Zephyr’s time?
Well, all I’m going to say is that you’re right to have been intrigued by that part of the drama: Amalia’s “mega-rippling” experience is going to prove to be very significant in the rest of the series. Can’t say more for risk of spoilers… but let’s talk again when you’ve seen the episodes.
TVLINE | Lastly, will the finale leave fans frustrated, if this turns out to be it? Are there big cliffhangers, or is there a degreee of completion to this part of the story?
I think Episode 12 brings all ourt stoprylines thome to roost in ways which will feel satisfyingly cathartic. Ther are definitely story elements and chgaracter dynamics there which were intended to push into future series [seasons], but they would have been starting a new chapter of The Nevers. I believe that we bring this one to what feels like a natural close.
