Oh, you thought the world had enough streaming services already? Well, sorry to shatter everything you thought you knew, but NBC still hasn’t officially launched—or even really talked about—it’s upcoming Peacock platform. The real details are coming later today at a big event with a giant peacock, but NBC is easing us all in with some early announcements of Peacock originals. This comes from Deadline, which says Peacock is developing a TV spin-off of Will Forte’s MacGruber movie (and recurring SNL sketch), an animated series based on the popular McElroy Family podcast The Adventure Zone, a car wash show co-written by and starring Laverne Cox, a sperm donor comedy, a series from Amy Poehler about an underdog women’s college soccer team, and an anthology documentary series about the birth of Twitter.


The MacGruber show was teased last February, and The Adventure Zone marks a return to NBC-backed streaming services for the McElroys (who previously adapted their podcast My Brother, My Brother And Me for the short-lived Seeso).



We don’t know how far along any of these are or if/when they might premiere on Peacock, but seeing as how we don’t know much about Peacock as a whole, we might get some relevant information later. Here’s the full set of new announcements, via Deadline:
