Dateline NBC Gets A Dedicated Peacock Channel

NBCUniversal’s Peacock streaming service has gotten off to a solid start, and as more and more of NBC’s back catalog is brought to the service the value will only get better. The latest addition is one of the most requested it turns out, as Peacock revealed that it now has a dedicated channel for Dateline, the popular series that highlights everything from powerful inspirational stories to police investigations full of intrigue and mystery. Anchored by Lester Holt, the show has become a fixture of nighttime television, and now that it’s all available in one place, good luck to getting anything done.

The official Peacock account felt the same way, sharing the news with the caption “Well, that’s us getting NOTHING done today.”

The Dateline NBC account revealed that this has been a much-requested addition to the service, as their video shows a flurry of tweets asking for a Dateline channel. Eventually, the text reads “You asked. We Delivered. All Dateline. All the time. 24/7, and you can watch the video above.

Fans in the comments quickly added a few more channel-worthy shows, including 30 Rock, Parks and Rec, a Bob Ross channel, and even a 24/7 Bill Hader, channel, and gotta say that last one we completely second. That would be great, right? Yes, yes it would.
