These programs are the most popular choices for Peacock subscribers.

‘The Valley’ (2024–)

This series follows former stars of ‘Vanderpump Rules’ as they adjust to life in the San Fernando Valley. Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright are at the center of the group, showing how they’re handling the challenges of parenthood and a quieter lifestyle after years of West Hollywood nightlife. The show dives into the ups and downs of marriage, changing careers, and how friendships change over time, all within a close group of friends. It’s become popular with Bravo fans who are interested in seeing what these familiar faces are up to now.

‘The Hunting Party’ (2025)

The new drama series centers around a team of investigators dedicated to hunting down dangerous criminals who’ve escaped from a highly secure, secret prison. Starring Melissa Roxburgh, the show is a thrilling mix of action and psychological suspense. The network is making a big bet on this crime drama as a key part of its upcoming season.

‘Summer House’ (2017–)

This show follows a group of friends who retreat to a lavish beach house in Montauk, New York, to unwind from their busy city careers. Each weekend brings a mix of personal clashes, romantic connections, and shifting friendships. While the group of friends has changed over time, the series still showcases the exciting, fast-paced lifestyle of the Hamptons, keeping viewers engaged with a blend of glamorous living and everyday relationship issues.

‘The Office: Superfan Episodes’ (2020–)

This updated release of the beloved mockumentary includes extra footage and scenes that didn’t originally make the cut, now woven back into the episodes. Viewers can revisit the everyday lives of the Dunder Mifflin employees with more background and story details. These longer cuts offer a better understanding of what drives each character, revealing motivations that were previously left out. The show continues to be incredibly popular with streaming audiences, proving its lasting appeal.

‘The Traitors’ (2022–)

I’m totally hooked on this psychological game! Basically, a group of contestants team up to win a cash prize, but the catch is, some of them are secretly trying to sabotage everything. It’s set in these amazing, dramatic locations – like the Scottish Highlands – and you’re constantly guessing who you can trust. Players have to figure out who the ‘traitors’ are before they get ‘eliminated’ or kicked off. The versions that came out in 2022, especially in the UK and Australia, really blew up the show’s popularity worldwide. It’s just so tense watching everyone try to protect the prize money from the people hiding in plain sight!

‘The ‘Burbs’ (2026)

This new show is a fresh take on the beloved 1989 film starring Tom Hanks. Keke Palmer stars in a story about the secrets and anxieties lurking beneath the surface of a seemingly perfect suburban community. The series focuses on a neighborhood where a new, mysterious family sparks growing suspicion and unease. It combines dark humor with the thrilling suspense that fans loved in the original movie.

‘Law & Order: Special Victims Unit’ (1999–)

Led by Captain Olivia Benson, this show follows a dedicated team of detectives solving sexually based crimes in New York City. As the longest-running drama in American television history, it has explored difficult and important social and legal topics for over twenty-five seasons. Known for storylines inspired by real events and the compelling growth of its characters, the series continues to draw in a large and loyal audience, including both new and returning viewers.

‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ (2010–)

This popular reality show gives viewers an inside look at the glamorous, and sometimes dramatic, lives of women living in a well-known affluent community. It showcases luxury fashion, lavish trips around the globe, and the challenges that come with navigating a close-knit, wealthy social group. The series follows the cast members through their biggest life moments, both personally and professionally, and continues to be a major topic of conversation online.

‘House of Villains’ (2023–)

A group of well-known reality TV stars face off in challenges for a chance to win a big cash prize. They all live together in one house and have to form alliances – and sometimes betray each other – to stay in the game and avoid elimination. Hosted by Joel McHale, the show playfully pokes fun at the clichés and familiar personalities that made these contestants famous. Fans love the show’s combination of familiar faces and intense competition.

‘The Traitors’ (2023–)

The U.S. adaptation of this reality competition is a huge success, bringing together celebrities and athletes. Alan Cumming hosts the show, which is set in a stunning castle, and challenges players to use strategy and deception to win a large cash prize. Players are secretly divided into ‘traitors’ who try to eliminate others, and ‘faithful’ who attempt to expose them during tense group discussions. Thanks to its impressive production and gripping psychological challenges, the show is currently a top performer on streaming platforms.
