Hour-long episodes were broadcast Sundays at 9:00 p.m. (Eastern) from 5 October to 2 November 1969 in the first season, and 22 November 1970 to 3 January 1971 for the second and final season.

Although Corwin received a significant budget, the series consistency was hampered by the departures of director René Bonnière and writer Sandy Stern.
