TV premiere
Series launch broadcast
A TV premiere is the first broadcast of a television program or series.
A series premiere introduces a new show, while a season premiere marks the first episode of a new season.
Networks often promote premieres heavily and schedule them strategically: The fall TV premiere season kicks off in September.
The term also applies to streaming releases: The premiere drops at midnight.
