The Lord of the Rings TV series has been a long time coming. It’s natural to want to watch all episodes at once to immerse yourself into the universe. Just when will each episode of The Rings of Power come to Prime Video?

When it comes to shows we are excited about, we want to be able to binge-watch them. That’s not going to be possible with The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. The TV series set in Middle Earth is not going to arrive all at once.

The first two episodes will drop this week. They are dropping a little earlier than promoted, with Amazon confirming that they will be available at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT on Thursday, Sept. 1. After that, the times move a little later. Make sure you keep track of the schedule so you don’t tune in late.

The Lord of the Rings series release schedule on Prime Video

After the first two episodes this week, there will be six episodes left to air. Will they get a two-episodes-per-week format that Making the Cut and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel got?

Sadly not. This series is now releasing one episode per week. Here’s the full schedule:

Episode 3: Friday, Sept. 9

Episode 4: Friday, Sept. 16

Episode 5: Friday, Sept. 23

Episode 6: Friday, Sept. 30

Episode 7: Friday, Oct. 7

Episode 8: Friday, Oct. 14

That’s right. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 1 finale will air on Friday, Oct. 14.

Amazon has confirmed the release time for all the episodes. After the early release this week, the episode will drop at midnight ET on the dates listed above. This means those on the West Coast will get the episodes a little earlier. Look out for them at 9 p.m. PT on the Thursday nights.
