The Wheel of Time is currently in the midst of its third season, which is adapting the book The Shadow Rising by Robert Jordan. New episodes drop on Amazon Prime Video every Thursday morning at 12:00 midnight on the west coast, 1:00 a.m. in the Mountain Time Zone, 2:00 a.m. in the Central Time Zone, and 3:00 a.m. on the east coast.

There are eight episodes this season in total. Prime Video dropped the first three all at once on Thursday, March 13. Then, last Thursday, they dropped the absolute banger that was "The Road To The Spear." So far, the season has been the best Prime Video has produced so far, with "The Road To The Spear" being easily the highest-rated episode yet. Without giving anything away, we can assure you that the awesomeness will continue.

Here's the full schedule for all eight episodes of The Wheel of Time season 3:

Some streaming services like Apple TV+ and Disney+ drop new episodes in the evenings, which mimics the way new episodes of popular shows air on network or cable TV. This way, people can, in theory, watch the episode as one when it drops, which can help spur discussion on social media...and in the real world, if you're into that. Prime Video drops new episodes of its shows in the dead of night, meaning a lot of people probably won't see them until the next day.

The Wheel of Time has not been renewed for a fourth season, but with the quality continuing to improve — season 2 was better than season 1 and season 3 is so far better than season 2 — hopefully we hear some good news soon.
