Two Canadian monthly lists agree on every Netflix and Disney+ line above. Crave's column comes from Bell Media's October overview, matched against the same two lists.

What time does War start on Crave?

At 9 p.m. ET on Thursday, Oct. 1, which is 6 p.m. in Vancouver. Bell Media dates the eight-episode season weekly on Thursdays after that. The series follows two London law firms through the divorce of a British tech founder and a film star.

War is an HBO title, so Crave is its only Canadian home; our HBO explainer covers why. The full month, including Crystal Lake and Yaga, sits in the Crave October list.
