‘Chicago Med’ is the third show in the ‘Chicago’ series and follows the doctors and nurses working in the busy emergency room of Gaffney Chicago Medical Center. The drama focuses on the challenging medical cases they face and the tough ethical choices they must make. Often, the staff works with firefighters and police officers from ‘Chicago Fire’ and ‘Chicago P.D.’ when big emergencies happen across the city. With consistently good ratings over many seasons, ‘Chicago Med’ has become a key part of NBC’s lineup of procedural dramas.

‘Below Deck Down Under’ (2022–)

‘Love Island: All Stars’ (2024–)

‘Love Island: All Stars’ brings back popular contestants from past seasons, giving them another shot at finding love in a luxurious villa. The show follows the same format as the original ‘Love Island’ – viewers still vote, couples are formed, and there are plenty of surprising twists.

This version is proving popular on Peacock, with fans excited to see familiar faces from different ‘Love Island’ series around the world.

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

‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ follows the glamorous and often dramatic lives of wealthy women in Beverly Hills.

It continues to be a hugely popular show within the ‘Real Housewives’ series, performing well on TV and streaming services.

‘The Office: Superfan Episodes’ (2020–)

Peacock is giving fans of ‘The Office’ more of what they love with extended cuts of the show’s original episodes. These versions include deleted scenes and previously unseen footage woven back into the stories of the Dunder Mifflin employees. This extra content adds depth to characters’ actions and storylines that didn’t quite fit into the original broadcast. The extended episodes are a big hit for Peacock, attracting both dedicated fans and those discovering the show for the first time.

‘The Traitors’ (2023–)

Hosted by Alan Cumming, ‘The Traitors’ is a reality competition set in a remote castle in Scotland. Players, including both famous faces and regular people, compete in challenges to build a prize fund. But some of them are secretly ‘Traitors’ whose goal is to eliminate the other players – the ‘Faithful’ – without getting discovered. The show is full of mind games, lies, and trying to figure out who can be trusted, keeping viewers hooked from beginning to end.
