Where Peacock falls short
Only NBCUniversal content
No HBO, no FX, no AMC, no Disney/ESPN. If your favorite show isn't on NBC, USA, Bravo or Syfy — Peacock can't help you
Limited live sports
Sunday Night Football yes, but no NFL Sunday Ticket, no NBA, no NHL. Premier League decent, everything else missing
Movie library is shallow
Universal-only films. No HBO Max blockbusters, no A24 indies, no Apple TV+ originals — you'll need extra subscriptions
Add-ons stack up fast
Peacock Premium ($11.88) → Premium Plus ($11.88) → SHOWTIME bundle (+$11) → Hallmark+ (+$7) = $40+/mo for partial coverage
