Probably after the new year...yea... They don't have much of anything to air once The Leftovers finishes its second season. So it'll run after that and end a little before GoT comes back.

New York City, 1973. Together with his partners, Richie Finestra (Bobby Cannavale), president of American Century Records, is on the verge of selling his struggling company to German Polygram, in a deal that includes an impending distribution agreement with Led Zeppelin. But after a disastrous meeting, it's clear that the sale is in jeopardy.
Heading home to Greenwich, Conn., Richie takes a detour to an unplanned reunion with Lester Grimes (Ato Essandoh), a musical artist with whom he has a complicated history. With thoughts of Lester weighing on him, Richie heads to the office, where, in addition to the Led Zeppelin situation, he learns of another problem: Bombastic Frank "Buck" Rogers (Andrew Dice Clay), owner of a chain of radio stations, is about to boycott American Century due to a perceived slight by one of the label's artists.
In crisis mode, Richie gives his A&R department the mandate to find new acts, prompting office assistant Jamie Vine (Juno Temple) to bring in The Nasty Bits, a proto-punk band unlike anything anyone has ever heard.
Meanwhile, Richie enlists thuggish independent promotion man Joe Corso (Bo Dietl) to help with the Buck Rogers situation. After a three-day coke binge, Corso summons the sober Richie to Rogers' home, where things go horribly awry.
Despite American Century's troubles, Richie learns that Polygram has agreed to buy the company after all. That night, with both Lester and the Buck Rogers debacle on his mind, he goes violently off the wagon, trashing the den of his Connecticut home and severely jeopardizing his relationship with his wife, Devon (Olivia Wilde), and their two children.
Richie ultimately finds himself coked out and on his own, drawn by a crowd of young people to the Mercer Arts Center in Manhattan, where he sees The New York Dolls perform, a night that sets him on a completely new course.
Teleplay by Terence Winter and George Mastras; story by Rich Cohen & Mick Jagger & Martin Scorsese and Terence Winter; directed by Martin Scorsese.

10 episode season
FYI, the Pilot is apparently 2 hours. And surprisingly it's not 2 episodes back to back. Episode 1 is 2 hours.
Didn't know this until just recent, but Bobby Cannavale just had a kid with Rose Byrne.

I didn't know they were an item. Wonder if they met on the set of Annie.
Normally I'd say he's a very lucky guy, but as an avid viewer of Boardwalk Empire, I'd hazard a guess that she's pretty happy as well.

I thought it was pretty common knowledge. Especially when he won his Emmy and gushed about her.
I've always liked him. He is lucky.

I thought it started off slow, but picked up at the end. Song list was fantastic.
I agree with Sepinwall that the Richie and Jamie characters seem a lot like Don and Peggy.

I'm about ten minutes in, and it feels like Casino set in the record industry. I hope it isn't wall-to-wall voice-overs.
