Peacock launches for Xfinity subscribers
« on: May 02, 2020, 10:48:29 PM »
NBC's new Peacock streaming service is now available for free to Xfinity subscribers, with all content accessible right through the cable box. Not much game show content so far, but here's what I've found:

- Hollywood Game Night
- The Wall
- Universal Kids' Beat The Clock
- Minuto Para Ganar
- Ellen's Game of Games
- American Ninja Warrior

I assume that only shows produced by NBC/Universal will be available on Peacock.

Several shows not produced by NBCU are there now.

Bumping to mention that, since the launch, Ellen's Game of Games has been removed and at some point they've added 100 episodes from the first season of syndicated DoND. Surprising.
Me: Of all of the game shows you've hosted besides Jeopardy!, like High Rollers or Classic Concentration, which is your favorite?
Alex Trebek: I'd have to say To Tell The Truth, because it was the first time in my career that I got to sit down while I was hosting.

Ellen is on a downward trajectory at the moment.  I'm not surprised they pulled it.

And half-hour Deal or No Deal isn't?
This signature is currently under construction.

No current stigma tied to Deal or No Deal at the moment.  Can't say the same about Ellen.

I believe the Ellen's Game of Games show is on HBO Max. Might have been a rights issue with that as well.
