Official Peacock Thread

Good to hear this, although I never watched BSG

Do yourself a favor and watch Ron Moore's BSG. It's up there with The Wire and Breaking Bad IMO

I do hate the trend of rebooting/remaking everything and this Peacock service does seem to lean heavily into that.

On the other hand Sam Esmail is one of my favorite creatives working today and he says this will be a new story . He needs to direct some episodes, can only imagine what his visuals will look like in space

On the Saved by the Bell tip, Governor Zack . I know he will probably be busy with Mixed-ish, but it wouldn't surprise me if he drops in for an episode or two down the line.

Original material

Peacock's initial original drama slate will consist of a new take on Battlestar Galactica from Mr. Robot creator Sam Esmail; Dr. Death, starring Alec Baldwin, Jamie Dornan and Christian Slater; Brave New World, formerly developed for USA and starring Demi Moore; limited series Angelyne, from Esmail and starring Emmy Rossum and based on a Hollywood Reporter feature; and thriller One of Us Is Lying. (The latter will be a pilot.)
On the comedy front, the original roster includes an updated take on Saved By the Bell from Tracey Wigfield (Great News); Rutherford Falls, co-created by Mike Schur (The Good Place), Ed Helms and Sierra Teller Ornelas and starring Helms; pilot Straight Talk, from Rashida Jones and starring Jada Pinkett Smith; a Punky Brewster sequel (also a pilot) starring Soleil Moon Frye; and the second movie spinoff of Psych. Those join the previously announced NBC import A.P. Bio on the service.

On the unscripted front, the platform includes SNL docuseries Who Wrote That, from creator Lorne Michaels; an original talk show from Jimmy Fallon; a weekly late-night show starring Amber Ruffin from Seth Meyers; and a spinoff of Bravo's The Real Housewives franchise.
