What is PeacockTV?

NBCUniversal launched its new streaming service nationwide this summer. It adds thousands of hours of content and programming for free.

There are also two more tiers for customers willing to fork out extra cash to gain access to additional shows, movies and original content. Some of those original shows include the Friends reunion and the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reboot. The Premium tier also offers subscribers access to live sports and news.

Peacock.com/tv isn’t made available through a local cable provider. The service is NBCUniversal’s way of reaching cord-cutters for an affordable price.

So how much does it cost?

PeacockTV has three different tiers available; free, Premium and Premium Plus. The free tier, of course, costs nothing. There is a mix of content from the upper two tiers and it has advertising.

The next tier is Peacock Premium, which also has advertising. Subscribers will have full access to Peacock’s library of shows, movies, live sports, daily news and more for $4.99/month. They will also have kids shows and movies, as well as Telemundo’s Spanish-language series available to them.

Finally, subscribers can pay $9.99/month for Peacock Premium Plus. For most of the programming in this tier, there are no advertisements. Some content will have advertising because of streaming rights.

What does Peacock TV include?

Peacock TV promises its subscribers thousands of hours of movies and TV, including channels and content exclusive to the service. Some of Peacock’s original shows include: Brave New World, Cleopatra in Space, Curious George, In Deep with Ryan Lochte, Intelligence and Lost Speedways.

Peacock will also take subscribers down memory lane with reboots of Saved By the Bell, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and Punky Brewster.

Not only will subscribers get access to new shows created by the streaming service, they will also be able to binge some of NBC’s most popular television shows. So fans of 30 Rock, Friends and Law & Order can rewatch some of their favorite episodes.

There are also a ton of movies available in the service’s library. From Back to the Future, to The Godfather series, there are plenty of choices in between.

Peacock also has live sports and news.
