Overview
- The six-episode series premieres Sunday, Jan. 18 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on HBO, with new episodes released weekly on HBO and HBO Max.
- Set about 100 years before Game of Thrones, it follows hedge knight Ser Duncan the Tall and his squire Egg through a tournament-era Westeros.
- Each episode runs roughly 30 minutes, offering a compact format compared with earlier Thrones entries.
- Co-created and executive produced by George R.R. Martin, the adaptation leans into smallfolk perspectives and a grounded tone with no dragons.
- HBO has already renewed the show, with Season 2 production underway in Ireland and an expected 2027 release, as early reviews largely praise the leads and production values.
