Streaming services are so popular these days, it tends to make me wonder why we all jumped to get rid of cable TV in the first place. Truthfully, those of us who are reality TV-obsessed only need a few channels — Bravo, TLC, just the essentials. The endless launches of new streaming services tend to be annoying and only further complicate the way we watch our favorite shows. Well, that was the case, before NBC gifted us with the blessing of Peacock.
I’m the last person to celebrate having to subscribe to another monthly bill, but Peacock has been delivering for the $5 a month price tag or whatever it costs. The streaming service revived the Real Housewives of Miami from the dead and somehow made it better than before. It was definitive proof that even the Real Housewives formula can use a shake-up from time to time. Since then, Peacock has only been further expanding the Bravo empire with more shows, and we should all be thankful.
Now, there’s even more exciting news about the streaming service. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Peacock has begun offering next-day streaming of shows that are currently airing on Bravo. That means if you can’t stay awake to see your favorite stars on Watch What Happens Live or you have a date night during the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion, you can easily catch up the next day.
Peacock was planning to roll out this feature in September. Unlike Sheree Whitfield’s She by Sheree joggers, this gift has come early. The news comes just in time for the new seasons of classics like Real Housewives of Atlanta or Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. If your household was getting sick of the amount of Bravo TV you have playing on a regular basis, it’s best to warn them that this function is probably only going to further escalate that so-called “problem.” As for the rest of us, it’s time to sit back with a LoverBoy a la Summer House (or a glass of Luann de Lesseps‘ Fosé) and enjoy even more of our favorite shows.
