Frequently Asked Question
In an effort to standardize air times, we would like to start using the US EST premiere time for the series-level air time on all US series, and for all non-US series, the time of the show’s country capital or most populous city. With the introduction of streaming services that drop all of their episodes simultaneously, we’ve seen differing release times for each. The official list is below:
- Netflix — 3 a.m.
- Disney+ — 3 a.m.
- HBO Max — 3 a.m.
- Paramount+ — 3 a.m.
- AMC+ — 3 a.m.
- ALLBLK — 3 a.m.
- BET+ — 3 a.m.
- Hulu — 12 a.m.
- Apple TV+ — 12 a.m.
- Peacock — 3 a.m.
- Amazon Prime Video — Amazon Prime Video releases episodes of its Prime Originals at 12 am GMT on their scheduled release day (8 EST, the day before). As such we follow Amazon's official air date/day as it is in GMT for when the episodes are released.
At times, a network might release an episode or multiple episodes of a series as a “sneak peek” on their website or app before the episode’s official air date on television. In these cases, our policy is that the air date listed should be when the episodes aired on the broadcaster’s main network. Also, the episode should be attributed to the network on which it originally airs — not the app or website.
