Excited to see it all in action? Canadians can watch the series on Crave or on HBO via their local TV Provider at 9:00 pm ET.
According to IMDB, each episode will run about 50 minutes – with the exception of the premiere which will be an hour and 25 minutes long – so pop some corn and prepare for a movie-length event.
