This article is a list of War of the Worlds episodes.

These episodes are arranged by their airdate, which does not necessarily reflect a consistent continuity, particularly in regards to the first season. The intended order remains unknown.

Also note that "The Resurrection" is listed here as a single two-hour feature episode as it originally aired in most countries before being subsequently broken down in repeats as a two-part story.
