Hey Neil :)

This is a rather stupid question I‘m afraid but why was the release time for GO2 set at such an impossible time for all the brits and other European people? I mean it’s a British show and yet so much is happening in advantage for American people. This is no hate, I mean it’s your/amazons decision, I‘m just curious!! :D

neil-gaiman answered:

Amazon is based in Seattle, which is on Pacific Time, so they tend to release things based on Pacific Time.

This means the show will show up in the UK and Europe at about 8 or 9 in the morning. It means the episodes will show up in Australia at 5 in the afternoon, and New Zealand at 7pm, perfect for an evening binge.

Having said that, it will be released, in all probability, at Midnight Pacific time. Which is 1 am Mountain time, 2 am Central time and 3 am for those on the East Coast. I’m not sure how this is an “advantage for American People”.

It’s definitely an advantage for the New Zealanders, though.

Ah well. Last time it was the Americans who had to watch it in the wee small hours.

The Kiwis get it at midday, and the Australians will be up early to watch it.

Apologies to all who have to watch it at an ungodly hour.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
