The first season of The Wheel of Time will officially premiere on November 19. There’s some good news for fans who’ve been waiting patiently for this adaptation too; the first three episodes will drop all at once, with the remaining five arriving weekly. This means that the entire series will be done by Christmas, but don’t worry: we’ll talk a little about season 2 later on. For now, take a look below to find out how to watch The Wheel of Time online from anywhere.
Before we begin, we should emphasize that we don’t recommend watching TV via unofficial sources. These are usually illegal and, as if that wasn’t enough, they almost always have very poor video quality. Besides, you can actually watch The Wheel of Time for free, so there’s not really any benefit to using third-party streams.
The Wheel of Time will only be available on one region-locked streaming service. If you’re traveling abroad and want to access your services back home, you’ll need a Virtual Private Network (VPN).

What can we expect from The Wheel of Time season one?
First off, it’s important to set our expectations: The Wheel of Time is not Game of Thrones. The books were originally aimed at a younger audience, so it’s actually more akin to Lord of the Rings or the Mortal Instruments series. There’s still plenty of action, magic, and intrigue, but more adult moments tend to remain implied or happen offscreen.
Much like Dune, The Wheel of Time is largely about history repeating itself. However, its story plays out on a smaller scale, with the first book mostly spent following a small group of travelers as they flee from monsters seemingly hellbent on catching them. We know that the first season will cover (some) events from the first three books, and with a second on the way, we could be making our way through the 14-book series faster than you might expect.
