This begins tonight! According to the schedule thing on the HBO site, Parts 1 and 2 will air tonight starting at 9pm EST with Part 3 airing next Sunday, April 3rd, at 9:15pm EST. This was advertised as a 5-part miniseries, but I'm not finding any information past Part 3. I'm assuming parts 4 and 5 will follow on the Sundays after that (10th and 17th) at around the same time.
