What believers are saying

  • Peacock's Fast & Furious series can convert a $7 billion franchise into recurring engagement.
  • Telemundo's FAST expansion and ¡Sí, Coach! deepen Spanish-language loyalty before World Cup 2026.
  • SNL licensing and OT7 partnerships extend high-value content into international and younger audiences.

What critics are saying

  • Peacock remains weaker than Netflix and Disney+, limiting subscriber conversion from franchise spin-offs.
  • External licensing, like SNL in Canada, weakens Peacock exclusivity and downstream leverage.
  • FAST-channel dependence on third-party workflows creates ad-signal failures, compliance issues, and margin pressure.

What makes NBCUniversal unique

  • NBCUniversal spans NBC, Peacock, Universal Pictures, Telemundo, and theme parks.
  • Its 6,500 films and 170,000 episodes create unmatched library monetization optionality.
  • It blends premium live sports, news, and franchises across broadcast and streaming.

Matthew Rhys stars as Harry Evans in BBC drama.

Matthew Rhys stars as Harry Evans in BBC drama. Dragon Slayers will be produced by AC Chapter One and Universal International Studios The BBC is diving back into the world of the British press with a factual drama about the work of legendary newspaper editor Sir Harold 'Harry' Evans. The 1 x 90-minute and 5 x 60-minute Dragon Slayers will star The Beast in Me actor Matthew Rhys as noted Fleet Street figures and editor of The Sunday Times Evans. Set in the 1970s, it will reveal how his Insight team took on powerful organisations and the government to break some of the UK's biggest stories, including the Thalidomide cover-up, the truth behind the DC-10 air disaster and exposing Kim Philby as one of the most successful spies of the 20th century. Dragon Slayers will be produced by AC Chapter One, co-producer of ITV1's press drama The Hack, and Universal International Studios for BBC1. The A Word creator Peter Bowker is the writer. Bowker will base the series on published accounts and interviews with those who knew and worked with Evans including his widow, editor, author and journalist Tina Brown, and the Evans family. He said: "Telling the story of Harry Evans and the work of his Insight team is both a privilege and a joy. And having Matthew leading the cast is more than Theknowledgeonline could have hoped for. "All of us are now united by a desire to honour the passion, doggedness and humour of this remarkable group of people. I hope the drama will make us take a fresh look at both journalism and that much maligned decade - the 1970s." AC Chapter managing director Spence said: "The generational impact of Harry and his magnificent team acts as a powerful reminder of how much democracy relies on a fearless press, and what would happen if they could no longer shed light where it is most needed." Director of BBC Drama Lindsay Salt added: "Dragon Slayers is a rollercoaster story, each episode gripping and powerful, written with Pete Bowker's signature wit and sense of purpose. "The investigative stories which were broken by Harry and his team carry as much power and purpose today as they did at the time. It's a real coup that the wonderful Matthew Rhys will star as the iconic Harry Evans." Bowker also executive produces with Matthew Rhys, Patrick Spence (Mr Bates vs The Post Office), Joe Williams (Mr Bates vs The Post Office) and Annalisa Dinnella (The Hack). The director is Al Mackay (The Cage), the producer is Natasha Romaniuk (The Split) and the casting director is Shaheen Baig (Adolescence). The series is distributed by NBCUniversal Global TV Distribution.

Taryn Hatcher lands first on-air role since leaving NBC Sports Philadelphia.

Taryn Hatcher lands first on-air role since leaving NBC Sports Philadelphia. Hatcher turned down a full-time MLB sideline reporter job while managing a health situation Credit: Taryn Hatcher (@tarynhatcher) on Instagram Taryn Hatcher has found her next gig, and it is not one anyone would have predicted. Per the Philadelphia Inquirer, Hatcher has joined The CW as part of its broadcast team covering the Professional Bowlers Association, working alongside former NASCAR lead announcer Rick Allen and former professional bowler Kyle Sherman. She is doing the same kind of in-stadium reporter work she did with the Phillies, including post-victory interviews with bowlers, most recently with Anthony Simonsen after he won the Illinois Classic in Decatur, Illinois, two weeks ago. The PBA season runs through April 26, with The CW airing events on Sundays at 4 p.m. Hatcher told the Inquirer's Rob Tornoe it has been "so much more fun" than she anticipated, calling the opportunity "a perfect fit." That's notable given that she recently revealed on her personal Instagram that she's been dealing with a health situation that has caused her to turn down other roles, including a full-time MLB sideline reporter position with a franchise she declined to name. The health situation is not dire, per Hatcher, but it has been enough to shape which opportunities she has pursued since leaving NBC Sports Philadelphia. "I've known this was happening for a few months, like over the course of the winter, and obviously so has my agent. And during that time, I have gotten some incredible job offers," Hatcher said. "Like, I never thought anybody would come seeking out little old me for some of these potential jobs. There's one that's actually killing me: 110 games baseball sideline, pre- and postgame. The franchise is incredible. The broadcast crew is phenomenal. The money they offered was tremendous. However, I have a bit of a health issue going on. It's not dire; it's not terrible. I am fine, but it is priority number one by a million miles, and because of that, I am kind of picking and choosing the jobs I'm taking a little differently for the short term. After Hatcher's contract expired at the end of the 2025 season, the network eliminated the position rather than replace her, and NBC Sports Philadelphia vice president of content Alexandra Matcham framed it publicly as an evolution in how the network covers baseball. The network later laid out what that evolution actually looks like, which amounts to leaning on digital video producer Spencer McKercher for in-stadium content and sending Ben Davis to the dugout for more field-level work, something that became official earlier this week. None of that is a direct replacement for what Hatcher did. She joined NBC Sports Philadelphia in 2018, spent seven seasons covering the Phillies, Flyers, Sixers, and Eagles, and had already been scaled back to home games only by the time her contract expired. The writing had been on the wall, given that NBC Sports Regional Networks signaled as early as 2020 that it was moving away from in-game reporters across its properties, making Hatcher's run at the network longer than it probably should have been, given the company's stated direction. The PBA on The CW is not where most people would have guessed she'd land next, but the schedule flexibility it offers - the season wraps at the end of April - presumably makes it a reasonable bridge while she manages her health situation and figures out what comes next.
