1. Brave New World

This dystopian sci-fi show, inspired by Aldous Huxley's novel, made its debut on Peacock this past July.

We're all in for a wild ride as members of the society start to challenge the rules. Forbidden love?! Revolution!? The actor who played Han Solo!? Sign me up.

2. In Deep with Ryan Lochte

Whether you are familiar with Lochte for being a decorated Olympic swimmer or you only know about that time he got suspended from the team due to an incident in Rio, you should reacquaint yourself with the athlete who is now a husband and a father as he recounts his scandal and his attempt to make Team USA again. This hour-long documentary showcases Lochte as he tries to redeem himself to the country, the Olympic team, and his family.

Buckle up for this wild ride.

Many of them have been abandoned and overtaken by nature, giving them a truly mystical quality. There are also appearances from famous racing legends (like the iconic Richard Petty!) throughout the series, so keep an eye out!

9. Hitmen

Peacock

Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins play best friends Jamie and Fran in this comedy series that follows the forever-bickering duo as they try to make a living as hitmen. Each job inevitably goes off the rails, resulting into bizarre misadventures you won't be able to get enough of.

10. A.P. Bio

Peacock

Harvard professor Jack Griffin (Glenn Howerton) fails to get his dream job and trudges back to his hometown in Ohio to work as an A.P. Bio teacher in a high school. However, he decides not to teach anyyyy biology and instead recruits the kids to break his job-stealing nemesis so he can claim the job he feels is rightfully his. This show is quirky and fun *and* there's three seasons' worth of it!

11. Where's Waldo?

Peacock

Waldo and his buddy Wenda are junior members of an international travel society (which sounds pretty fantastic, if you ask me) and are working to *earn their stripes* as they travel the globe. While adventuring in each episode, the duo encounters a rival globetrotter who use magic to cause trouble for them. Apologies, you'll probably end up watching this alongside your kiddos instead of catching up on your reading or taking that shower as you had planned.

12. Noughts + Crosses

Peacock

If you're a sucker for any star-crossed lover stories, I think I've found your next favorite drama. In this show Sephy Hadley and Callum McGregor have fallen for one another but live in the intersection Black ruling class and the white underclass in a dystopian society divided by color. Tune in as they fight to be together.

13. Five Bedrooms

Peacock

Peacock's original drama comedy follows the story of five Australians who get tipsy at a wedding while seated at the singles table and decide to pool their money to buy a house together. The characters are flawed humans (like all of us) but deeply care for one another — it's a delightful show you'll probably watch in one sitting.

14. And Curious George

Peacock

... four seasons' worth to be exact! George and the Man in the Yellow Hat return to keep you and your kiddos company. In one of the episodes the silly little monkey even learns how to make banana bread, proving he really is *with the times*.
