HBO Watchmen
What might be the biggest hit to come to HBO since Game of Thrones is premiering on Sunday night. Watchmen has a lot of hype surrounding the new series, and fans hope that ratings are big enough to get the show renewed for a second season. Here’s what we know so far about the show’s schedule, including the release date, time, TV episode titles, and descriptions. This post will have spoilers in terms of episode titles and descriptions.
‘Watchmen’ Premieres on Sunday, October 20
The new HBO TV series Watchmen will premiere Sunday night, October 20, at 9 p.m. Eastern (8 p.m. Central.)

The Last Three Episode Titles Are Not Confirmed
After Episode 6 there are three more episodes, but the titles are not confirmed yet by HBO. They are listed on the WGA Directory, so they’re subject to change. For example, Episode 8 is listed as being called “This Extraordinary Being” but that’s the title for Episode 6.
The episode titles left on the WGA Directory are “An Almost Religous Awe,” “A God Walks Into Abar,” and “See How They Fly.” It’s rumored that “See How They Fly” is the name of the finale episode, but this is not confirmed.
