It features some of the biggest, most popular TV shows of all time.

Originally launched in the States in April 2020, the Peacock streaming service has been a massive success across the pond, hosting some of the biggest movies and shows brought by Universal and NBC.

The streaming service is now available in Ireland from today (Tuesday, 16 November) to anyone with a NOW’s Entertainment Membership, with the content on Peacock added to that membership with no additional cost to you! Hooray!

As for what to expect from the new arrivals, it literally features some of the biggest shows of all time, some of which have not been previously available on any other streaming service in Ireland, including some absolute classics like Rutherford Falls, Suits, House, Downton Abbey, Superstore and Friday Night Lights.

Later in November, you can expect access to Punky Brewster (23 Nov), Monk (23 Nov), Heroes (30 Nov) and The Girl in the Woods (Late Nov).

And it isn’t just shows, as they’re also giving access to a very impressive library of movies including… (deep breath)…
