Just started on Discovery. 2 hour season premier. Looks awesome and can't wait to watch it later.

Do you not have cable? Showing a replay at 10 I believe. I'm sure you can also watch it on Discovery's website.

I like it the ordering of it strikes me as somewhat odd.

Is the episode that's on right now the same one as the new one that played at 8?

Should be. Two new episodes were played. Pretty cool. Looks amazing.
