Peacock's September Lineup: What's Worth Your Money?

So Peacock just raised its prices, and you're probably wondering if it's still worth it. September's lineup might help you decide. While we're still waiting on YouTube Premium (2027, seriously?) and that Dungeon Crawler Carl series, there's plenty to stream this month. Let's break down the highlights.

First up, if you're in the mood for a fun horror-comedy, Happy Death Day is your pick. It's a time-loop slasher with a killer lead performance by Jessica Rothe. Our review called it "a deliciously wicked treat" that won't scare you but will keep you entertained with its clever twists. Perfect for kicking off spooky season a little early.

Then there's Twilight. Look, we know it's not exactly a masterpiece, but it's iconic. It launched Robert Pattinson's career, and sometimes you just need to rewatch the saga. The sequels get better, and there's only one Twilight. If you're a fan of the books or just nostalgic for the 2000s, it's worth a rewatch.

The big Peacock Original this month is The Paper, season 2. It's a mockumentary set in The Office universe, and season 1 scored an 8/10 from us. Creator Greg Daniels brings that familiar charm and positivity, even if it feels a bit rushed in the binge era. If you loved The Office or Parks and Rec, you'll feel right at home.

For Wes Anderson fans, his latest film The Phoenician Scheme drops later this month. Anderson's style is an acquired taste, but if you're into it, this is a must-watch. Our review called it "an event," and we're sure it'll be full of his signature quirk and visual flair.

Of course, there's more on the docket—Universal Pictures movies, NBC shows, and other originals. But these are our top picks to make the most of your subscription.

So, will you be checking out any of these? Or are you still mad about the price hike? Let us know in the comments!
