That January 24 premiere date is a Sunday, and in fact the premiere will air after the NFC Championship Game. If that seems like a strange pairing, just consider the lead-in potential of a football game that will draw a tremendous audience.

The series will then begin airing on Mondays, beginning on January 25. So we’ll get the first two episodes in quick succession.
