A week from today, a new era begins as NBC airs the English Premier League.  Last week, NBC released their schedule for the first half of the English Premier League season, through Dec. 1, but there were some notable time-slots left unfilled. Though the schedule was released, most of the 10 a.m. ET games were listed as "TBD."

NBC plans to air 4-5 games every Saturday, the first time that every Premier League game will be made available to an American audience: either on TV, or on phones, tablets or online with NBC Sports' Live Extra service. Each Saturday at 10 a.m. ET, one game will be assigned to NBC or NBCSN with the remaining games airing on NBC's Premier League Extra Time: "a bonus television package available to MVPDs (multichannel video programming distributors) at no extra cost for customers who receive NBC Sports Network," per NBC's press release.

Fans can also find out where their favorite team's game is airing via NBC's interactive game finder on NBCSports.com, which identifies the game airing based on the fan's location and their television provider.

Here is the full, first three weeks of Premier League on NBC and NBCSN:
