What time is Gen V episode 1-3 on Amazon Prime Video?
By Bryce Olin
The Boys spinoff, Gen V, premieres on Amazon Prime Video on Sept. 29, 2023. Fans already want to know when they can watch the first episode of the new series on the streaming service. We have some great news!
Not only do we get to watch the series premiere on Sept. 29, but fans get to watch the first three episodes of Gen V on Prime Video on the premiere date! Amazon has done this with its shows in the past, and I think it really works. It’s great to get into the series a little bit instead of having to wait for new episodes week after week. It’s like a hybrid between the Netflix model and the traditional broadcast/cable model. It works!
So, you can watch the first three episodes of Gen V on Friday, Sept. 29. Is that all the good news? No, there’s more! It’s about what time those first three episodes will be available to stream on Prime Video.
Gen V release time for the first three episodes
The first three episodes of Gen V will be available to stream at 12:00 a.m. GMT on Friday, Sept. 29. And, that’s the good news. If you live in the United States or Canada, you can start binge-watching those first three episodes at 8:00 p.m. ET/5:00 p.m. PT on Thursday, Sept. 28. It’s basically a primetime release stateside!
Amazon’s been doing this for its last few big releases. It’s been great for The Summer I Turned Pretty and The Wheel of Time, and it looks like this release time is here to stay for Amazon original shows and movies. I like that I don’t have to stay up until midnight or 3 a.m. ET to stream the first episode of a new show. Amazon should want people who are most excited about the new show to be able to watch it conveniently, and I think this release model works.
When is Gen V episode coming out?
Gen V episode 4 is coming to Amazon Prime Video on Friday, Oct. 6. Following the release of the first three episodes on Sept. 29, Amazon is adding one new episode of Gen V through the season finale on Nov. 3.
New episodes are expected to be released at 12:00 a.m. GMT, so you should be able to watch episode 4 on the night of Thursday, Oct. 5, if you live in the United States or Canada.
