How well do you know your friends? Would you bet your life on it? That's the
question in the new action-packed summer drama series Traveler. Shot in British Columbia, Traveler joins CTV's must-see summer-line up on Wednesday nights following the hit reality series So You Think You Can Dance?


In the Traveler series premiere, viewers are introduced to Will Traveler and his two grad-school friends Jay and Tyler. Having spent virtually every minute of the last two years living, working and partying together, the best friends set off on a road trip to New York to celebrate their graduation. Once they arrive, Jay and Tyler embark on a rollerblading prank at New York's oldest art museum. But as soon as they are outside - the building blows up. Caught on museum's security tapes, the blame for the attack focuses on them; they in turn realize that their "friend," Will Traveler, may have set them up. Unable to find him or indeed any evidence that the Will Traveler they knew even existed, Jay and Tyler flee the city and go on the run.

As the series continues, it becomes clear that Jay and Tyler are being hunted by the FBI as domestic terrorists. The two must rely on each other as they search for clues both in the present and the past that will lead them to find answers and evidence to prove their innocence. Together with the help of an unlikely heroic hotel concierge and Tyler's father, the two set out to uncover the conspiracy, clear their names and answer two very important questions - who is Will Traveler, and why did he do this to them?

Traveler stars Matthew Bomer (Tru Calling) as Jay Burchell, Logan Marshall-Green (The O.C., 24) as Tyler Fog and Aaron Stanford (X-Men: The Last Stand) as the elusive Will Traveler. The series also stars Steven Culp (Desperate Housewives) as Special Agent in Charge Fred Chambers; Pascale Hutton (Smallville) as Jay's girlfriend, Kimberly; Viola Davis (Century City, Solaris) as Agent Jan Marlow; Anthony Ruivivar (Third Watch) as Agent Guillermo Borjes; William Sadler (Roswell, The Shawshank Redemption) as Carlton Fog; and Billy Mayo (24, Air Force One) as The Porter.
