Nightflyer

George R.R. Martin fans might have a long wait until Winter comes to an end over at HBO but to tide us over, Syfy is set to deliver us the adaptation of his ‘Nightflyers‘ novel. Starting on December 2nd, 2018, you can begin streaming the 10-episode first season thanks to this “epic December event” which the network is giving us. Talk about an early Christmas present!

The exact release dates of each episode are as follows:

Episodes 1-5 debuting Sunday, December 2 through Thursday, December 6 at 10/9c

Episodes 6-10 on Sunday, December 9 through Thursday, December 13 at 10/9c

This means that you’ll be able to watch every single episode from the instant they are released on SYFY channel, SYFY On Demand, online at SYFY.com and the SYFY app with limited commercial interruption across all platforms.

You can check out the new trailer for the series below that’ll leave you wanting more!

 

While you can’t expect the same production value on a Syfy show as you would from HBO, the network has done a fantastic job at their set and costume production from what we’ve seen for ‘Nightflyers.’ The novella that this new series is based upon was originally released in 1980 and has already been adapted into a feature film. However, Syfy is expanding on the idea to give us a more immersive story.
