Members John Posted July 16, 2020 Members Share Posted July 16, 2020 You have to upgrade to premium to watch some of their content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 16, 2020 Author Members Share Posted July 16, 2020 I'm laughing because the free content is nonexistent. Why bother with the false advertising? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members applcin Posted July 16, 2020 Members Share Posted July 16, 2020 (edited) I just joined and clicked around a bit. There's free stuff available. As expected, the older stuff I clicked on (Carol Burnett, SNL) was free. This Is Us was free. Everybody Hates Chris. Some newer shows have the first episode free only. Some things are free for a limited time. I think the interface could be a little clearer about what's free vs. not. I'm probably not going to use it much (just yet anyway) because they aren't on Roku yet and it's easier to watch some of this stuff that's already available via my Roku channels, cable on demand and Amazon.

Members Wendy Posted September 22, 2020 Members Share Posted September 22, 2020 I don't know if it extends to the Amazon Fire TV box/stick/TVs, but Peacock has finally inked a deal with Roku. You can now access the channel - if you have a Roku - in their Channel Store and add Peacock to your home screen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted September 22, 2020 Author Members Share Posted September 22, 2020 It's only on Roku. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted September 22, 2020 Members Share Posted September 22, 2020 The Amazon firestick MIGHT work with Roku. I heard joggers passing me yesterday discussing this very thing funnily enough. But one of the girls was sure. The other not so much. So...maybe? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noel Posted March 8, 2022 Members Share Posted March 8, 2022 On the DAYS Discussion thread, I tried Peacock Premium, lol! However, that was short-lived as I can download that stuff and upload on my PLEX in no sweat. But, all the movies they consider as as "Premium" I already have. What's the point? I think maybe if they offered a "Live NBC TV" channel, it might make things different. Maybe? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted December 6, 2022 Members Share Posted December 6, 2022 The Black Friday deal was too irresistible to me. It just happened to coincide with the World Cup and there are some movies that I want to watch, plus I feel like revisiting the Frasier series. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted April 17, 2023 Author Members Share Posted April 17, 2023 I'm hearing Peacock is dumping Cheers from its line-up. I guess it has to do with the upcoming blu ray release. Another reason to dump Peacock. Paramount + still has Cheers though and so does Hulu. Not sure if it's in HD on Hulu. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted April 22, 2023 Members Share Posted April 22, 2023 Yep. In 8 days. They're dumping Fraiser too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted April 22, 2023 Webmaster Share Posted April 22, 2023 Both shows are owned by CBS, and will have long lives on Paramount+. Additionally, Paramount+ has a "Frasier" reboot in the works. It makes sense for it to be on that service and not Peacock in that case. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted April 22, 2023 Members Share Posted April 22, 2023 Thanks! I wasn't sure who owned them since they were NBC shows. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted April 22, 2023 Webmaster Share Posted April 22, 2023 Totally understand. In a perfect world we'd see our favorite shows on the same streamer (network) that initially aired them, but ownership plays a heavy hand in all that stuff. The classic Must See TV lineup would be cool to play on our own time/schedule, but you'd have to have HBO Max, Paramount+, Peacock and even Netflix to play all the right shows these days. Sigh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted April 22, 2023 Members Share Posted April 22, 2023 Agree. Which would mean, in technicality, Friends would be on Peacock and not Max, but I'm happy it's on Max over Peacock, haha. Judging from what I've heard and seen, the reboot looks quite well done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
