We have finally reached the week that every Swiftie has been waiting for, and no, I'm not talking about Reputation (Taylor's Version) — let it go, it doesn't exist! The long awaited Taylor Swift documentary series arrives on Disney+ to celebrate the magical and dazzling Eras Tour. Collectively, we have been yearning for a new documentary from the global superstar for years, especially after the unprecedented success of her history-making tour and, as always, she delightfully overdelivered.
Taylor Swift: The End of an Era features six episodes, and while the episode lengths and titles haven't been confirmed ahead of the documentary series' premiere on December 12, fans couldn't be more excited to get the all-access backstage pass we never expected to receive to the Eras Tour. If you have been plagued with questions about the cleaning cart, Swift's quick changes, how she masterminded her mashups, and her love story with Travis Kelce, this is what you've been waiting for!

As confirmed by Disney+, new episodes of The End of an Era are released at 12 a.m. PT/3 a.m. ET, which means it's a bit late for fans in the United States to stay up to watch. However, there will surely be devoted Swifties who set alarms to wake up and watch the episodes in the middle of the night, or have all-nighter watch parties with their friends. Maybe save yourself from being sleepy on Friday and plan your watch party for Friday night instead! After all, it's a packed day for new content.
