NBC, Bravo Programming Officially Leaving Hulu for Peacock, as Peacock Offers 60% Off Deal

Peacock is temporarily slashing prices as it prepares to welcome a whole new slate of titles this fall. The NBC-owned streamer announced a new deal today that offers a heavy discount to Peacock Premium subscribers as Bravo and NBC titles land in their library.

Under the new deal, which is being branded as a “fall celebration offer,” new subscribers can get Peacock Premium for $1.99 per month or $19.99 per year during the month of September. Peacock offers multiple tiers — the most basic of which is free and includes the least content — but typically charges $4.99 per month of $49.99 per year for Peacock Premium.

The deep discount comes as Peacock prepares to become the “go-to platform for NBC series,” per today’s press release. Shows like Law & Order, La Brea, Quantum Leap and Saturday Night Live will all land on Peacock the day after new episodes air, joining the Bravo content (The Real Housewives, Top Chef and Below Deck franchises) that’s already coming to the platform the next day.

It’s a new release strategy for NBCUniversal, which previously dropped new titles on Hulu the next day. NBC titles will no longer stream on Hulu and will instead begin streaming on Peacock the day after they air, starting Sept. 19. So, you’ll have to head to Peacock to get your fix of hits like the One Chicago franchise, late night shows like Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and Late Night with Seth Meyers, or NBC dramas like New Amsterdam and comedies like Young Rock.

Hulu is losing a large chunk of key programing with the shift of NBC titles to Peacock, but the streamer has some strong original content of its own coming up that’s only available on their platform. In September, Hulu is debuting a new season of The Handmaid’s Tale, plus a second season of The Kardashians (whose predecessor, Keeping Up with the Kardashians, used to air on the NBCUniversal-owned E! Network).

But if you’re more of a Kyle Richards fan than a Kim Kardashian stan, Peacock is the place to be — just be sure to lock in that deal before the end of September, or you’ll be stuck paying premium prices.
