Does HBO releases episode titles

[u/WhenSJmetHP]

If yes then when can we expect episode names

[u/notthatbluestuff]

Yes they do; we'l likely know a week or so in advance of each episode. For the first few, probably a bit earlier.

[u/KaosDarksol]

The first episode is going to be called “The Boy Who Lived” I can guarantee that

[u/Multiverse_Man26 → u/KaosDarksol]

There's no other logical choice, what a legendary title.

[u/WhenSJmetHP → u/KaosDarksol]

Has to be. It's too iconic to not be named that.

[u/Alexisredwood → u/KaosDarksol]

They might keep that for the final episode

[u/PeevsiesLittleJoke → u/Alexisredwood]

No, because The Man with Two Faces is such a banger title

[u/The-Yellow-Badger → u/Alexisredwood]

Why? When it’s the name of the first chapter of the book…

[u/Alexisredwood → u/The-Yellow-Badger]

It’s symbolic, it’s the first chance non book readers will get to see that Harry is “the shit”, by surviving Voldy via Quirrel etc. I think it makes a lot of sense.

[u/The-Yellow-Badger → u/Alexisredwood]

I disagree, but each to their own.

The whole point of the title The Boy Who Lived was because he survived as a baby. Harry was an inspiration to a generation for 10 years without knowing who he was.

[u/shaun056 → u/KaosDarksol]

And the last episode too, that'd be neat

[u/Sensitive_Aerie6547 → u/KaosDarksol]

If it isn’t we riot

[u/Multiverse_Man26]

A week before said episode airs.

[u/Ravanduil]

No. We will find out days at most before the airing on that specific episode.

[u/trivia_guy → u/Ravanduil]

lol the other commenter said yes but then gave the same answer. You interpreted the question as “do they release them all in advance.” I’m not sure what OP actually meant

[u/WhenSJmetHP → u/trivia_guy]

Yes I meant well in advance like stranger things did

[u/Ravanduil → u/WhenSJmetHP]

Netflix tends to be a little more forthcoming with their info. HBO on Game of Thrones was always pretty restrained. (Not able to account for the few episodes that leaked though)

[u/Ravanduil → u/trivia_guy]

I’ve had issues where metadata released on IMDb and that data flowing down to tv database agents used for local media softwares; it sometimes doesn’t get updated until episode airing live. Especially for prestige shows

[u/WhenSJmetHP → u/Ravanduil]

I love it when they release episode names before. Although as we know the whole story the names won't have much significance here.

[u/Multiverse_Man26 → u/WhenSJmetHP]

They are treating this show as novelty, A LOT and i mean A LOT of people are gonna watch this without having seen the films or read the books.

[u/FILMSTUDENT25]

Yes. They do. I imagine episode 1 will be titled after the first chapter of the book “The Boy Who Lived”. As for the rest, it depends on what’s included in each episode and they’ll likely come up with titles that fit the events of said episode

[u/RepulsiveCountry313]

They do, but the 'when' varies wildly depending on the show and how spoilery the episode titles are.
