It's that time of the month again: a new streaming service has landed and Chad has all the deets that'll make your seat feel the heat. NBCUniversal's PEACOCK is here to give you all of the branded goodness. Shows like Parks and Recreation and 30 Rock land on the same platform as Alfred Hitchcock's movies, news shows like Nightly News and Meet The Press, as well as full episodes of Johnny Carson's Tonight Show. Peacock also offers 24 hour channels and a free tier so it stands out from the other streaming services. How does it stack up on its own? Plus: CBS gets serious about BIPOC representation and teams up with the NAACP; and NETFLIX ratings on its latest projects.
