Peacock: Cost, Content, and Everything You Need to Know About the New Service
Within the last nine months, both Disney and WarnerMedia have launched their own standalone [...]
Tiers & Pricing
Peacock will offer multiple different tiers of its service for users to enjoy. There is a basic free tier of content that will be available to everyone without any sort of monthly fee. That tier will include over half of Peacock's content, along with ad breaks throughout movies and shows.
The Peacock Premium tier will cost just $4.99 per month and includes the entirety of Peacock's catalogue, including its slate of originals. However, this tier still includes ads. For an extra $5 each month, on top of the premium subscription, you can remove ads entirely. So for the most advanced version of Peacock available, you'll be spending about $10 each month.

Originals
As is the case with most other streaming services, Peacock will have its own slate of original movies and TV shows. These originals include reboots of Saved by the Bell, Punky Brewster, and Battlestar Galactica. However, many of those shows won't be ready for launch.
The launch-day slate of originals includes Brave New World, The Capture, Intelligence, Psych 2: Lassie Come Home, DreamWorks Where's Waldo?, DreamWorks Cleopatra In Space, and Curious George.
