Couples Therapy will air a special pandemic episode in December

Deadline

Showtime's one-hour Couples Therapy: The COVID Special, airing Dec. 13, follows Dr. Guralnik as she works with various couples who have found themselves stranded together given coronavirus shutdown orders. “There’s all this anxiety that’s stirred up and we’re stuck at home,” Guralnik says in the COVID Special trailer. “This is kind of an amazing social experiment where couples are forced to deal.” Couples Therapy Season 2 won't premiere until 2021.
