Was it advertised as being available?


It does show as available on the 'Peacock has landed' video on the service so imagine it's going to land shortly....

So this is the 'soft' launch, which would explain the limited sample of content. I wonder when the 'full' launch will be? I imagine there will be a massive bulking when it does.

They certainly own a fair bit more content than what's available today but NBCU doesn't have the same vast quality archive as a Disney or WarnerMedia.

Still, extra content is exactly that but how much of it is worth watching is subjective.

They did on the original announcement talk about it being around 7000 hours strong so there's likely a fair amount to upload - imagine they'll ramp it up during this soft launch period and probably get some extra time to test & learn on how well it integrates.

  This is what we are hoping to get. For some reason Comedy Central showed nearly every episode from S1 to S7 and then only a few episodes for the last 2 seasons. I tried contacting them twice about it and they completely ignored me.

I see the peacock content uses Dolby Digital 2.0 SUR for their content.  Also, the available films seems to be presented in pan and scan?  Only checked  The Fightners and The Adjustment Bureau.  Lot's of low res artifacts as well.

I'll have a look on Peacock US and report back how movies are. I've not streamed any movies from Peacock. I'll give a go to some here to see how they compare.

In the US, movies on Peacock are not wonderful. Some are widescreen and some are not.

 

I had a look at The Adjustment Bureau and it is fullscreen. I also took a look Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and it is widescreen but the picture is not really all that good.

 

TV shows are good in the US.It seems movies maybe not.

There is no sign of Bates Motel despite specifically being mentioned in the Sky help pages

That is not a problem as Bates Motel is available On Demand from BBC One.

The help page lists Bates Motel under "Top Shows Coming Up" - https://www.sky.com/help/articles/using-peacock .

 

Might be worth contacting Viewer Relations if you want to check when?

Re: Peacock TV to sky

The show that's an issue is Psych as it's not available anywhere else and it hasn'tdropped yet.

 

As for Bates Motel, the good thing is the BBC One version has no adverts.

  @natasha01  Not sure if this is of any use to you but Everybody Loves Raymond S1 - 9 is available to buy on Amazon Video. You can purchase individual episodes for £1.89 - £2.49 or whole seasons for £9.99.
