October is nearly here, so it’s time to look at what’s new on Peacock. The spooky season has officially started and with it is a slew of movies and shows to watch.
In fact, Peacock may give you the most quality content for the least money. Thanks to a slate of movies and shows from NBC, Universal, Bravo and more, there’s a ton that arrives on Peacock every month. That doesn’t even include the original shows and movies. That’s why Peacock is our choice for the best streaming service for value.
This month, there are a few headliners that are must-watch movies and shows. First up though, is a must-watch live event. On Oct. 1, Peacock’s NBC News Now live channel will simulcast the U.S. Vice Presidential debate between J.D. Vance and Tim Walz. After that, you’ll want to check out “Teacup,” a new Peacock original horror show debuting on Oct. 10. And don’t forget to watch “Despicable Me 4” when it arrives on Peacock at the end of the month.
Here’s everything New on Peacock in October 2024, including movies, shows, sports, live events, exclusives and more.
New on Peacock in October 2024: Top picks
‘Vice Presidential Debate: Vance vs Walz’
The U.S. Presidential general election is just over a month away and there’s very little separating the two major candidates in the polls. Current U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris seemed to have gained an advantage from the last Presidential debate, but former President Donald Trump has clawed back some of those gains.
This month though, we get a good look at the two men most likely to replace Harris as Vice President. Republican Party nominee and current junior senator from Ohio J.D. Vance will go head-to-head with Democratic Party nominee and current Minnesota governor Tim Walz. Whichever man comes out on top could tip the race in favor of their running mate.
Watch live Oct. 1 at 8 p.m. ET on Peacock
‘Teacup’ series premiere
From executive producers James Wan (“Saw,” “Insidious,” “The Conjuring) and Ian McCulloch (“Yellowstone“) comes “Teacup,” a new original horror show from Peacock. From the first trailer, this show is unsettling, with the soundtrack switching between a creepy chorus of voices and “Think About Your Troubles,” a song from the children’s animated film “The Point.” It’s especially unsettling for those of us who immediately recognize the song as coming from the kids’ movie, but also intriguing at the same time.
“Teacup” stars Yvonne Strahovski and is based on the novel “Stinger” by Robert R. McCammon. In this eight-episode season, a group of otherwise disparate people in rural Georgia will have to band together when a mysterious threat arrives, seemingly keeping them within the confines of their farmland. The first two episodes premiere on Oct. 10 and arrive in two-episode batches every subsequent Thursday.
Premieres Oct. 10 on Peacock
‘Despicable Me 4’
The Gru crew is back! In this installment of the “Despicable Me” franchise (or is it the “Minions” universe?), Gru (Steve Carrell) is out of the crime game and is living life as a secret agent. But things go awry for Gru and the game when a school rival from his past (Will Ferrell) escapes prison and seeks revenge.
Gru must relocate his family to a safe house to avoid the sinister Maxime Le Mal, but that’s not the only thing he has to contend with. The whole family now has to adjust to a new life. That’s hard enough normal, but almost impossible when the neighbor Poppy Prescott (Joey King) tries to follow in Gru’s villainous footsteps while some of the Minions try to become superheroes.
