International timing and streaming

Because you might not be in the US, here’s how the next episode (Episode 5) timing breaks down in a few key regions.

  • US & Canada: Sunday, February 15 at 7 p.m. PT / 10 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max.
  • UK : Monday, February 16 at 3 a.m. GMT (typically via Sky/Now depending on local rights).
  • India : Monday, February 16 at 8:30 a.m. IST.
  • Singapore : Monday, February 16 at 11 a.m. SGT.
  • Australia (AEDT) : Monday, February 16 at 2 p.m.
  • New Zealand (NZDT) : Monday, February 16 at 4 p.m.

Availability outside the US can vary by platform (for example, Sky Atlantic and NOW in the UK), but the pattern is a Sunday US airing with early-morning Monday drops in Europe and Asia-Pacific.

Why Episode 4 was a bit weird

If you felt like Episode 4 arrived “off-schedule,” you’re not imagining it.

  • Episode 4 (“Seven”) was released early on HBO Max on Friday, February 6, instead of its usual Sunday night slot.
  • The HBO linear airing still happened on Sunday, February 8 at 10 p.m. ET.
  • The early streaming drop was tied to Super Bowl LX coverage on the usual Sunday, so the show temporarily shifted to avoid the clash.

From Episode 5 onward, the show has returned to its regular Sunday 10 p.m. ET rhythm in the US.

What fans are talking about right now

The show is a trending fantasy TV topic this month thanks to a few big factors:

  • It’s the latest series set in the Game of Thrones universe, adapted from George R.R. Martin’s Dunk and Egg novellas, which already had a strong cult fanbase.
  • Online forums like Reddit’s r/gameofthrones have active episode threads, with fans debating tone, pacing, and whether the shorter 30-ish minute runtime signals a smaller, character-driven story rather than a giant war epic.
  • The early Episode 4 drop sparked a mini wave of “wait, is it out already?” posts, but Episode 5’s scheduled time is clearly confirmed by major entertainment outlets and streaming guides.

A good example of the current forum mood: some viewers appreciate the lighter, slightly more humorous moments between Dunk and Egg, while others want more of the political scheming and big-set-piece drama they associate with Westeros.

TL;DR

  • The next episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (Episode 5 – “In the Name of the Mother”) airs Sunday, February 15 at 10 p.m. ET on HBO and drops on HBO Max at the same time.
  • It’s the penultimate episode of a six-part first season, with the finale landing on February 22.
