Peacock Subscription Discount

Dear Lordie - thanks for the Jrs being available later!

I do not have to take Thursday off from work then. Because I am not missing JGP, but if its not blocked I can watch it when I get home.

I'm screwed for the GPF unless the training class I'm in for work involves a lot of sitting around, twiddling thumbs the first week (which is entirely possible, I've worked for my "new" employer before, but in a totally different division, so I'm not sure how busy we'll be learning, lol). I can't very well take time off the first week on a new job, so I'm relying on my Opera browser to watch the senior events I'll miss during the day. And annoyed at all of the inconvenience.

Its so sad. If the competitions could stay up for a week I'd be happy. Plus I was at Skate America and I would rewatch it multiple times if I could.

Peacock has a deal $19.99 for A whole year. Is that a good deal?

I was just coming to post the same thing as I recently canceled my subscription. It ordinarily is five dollars per month. IMO, it's a decent deal only if we know that Peacock is going to cover the Grand Prix and Worlds next season (with replays). Has there been confirmation for that? I don't really watch much on Peacock other than skating and I definitely wouldn't subscribe unless I knew for sure that skating was going to be available.

The $19.99 w/ ads deal has been going on for months now. Even without the skating, there’s a massive library of TV shows that make it well worth the price.

There are lots of streaming services. I'm not paying for all of them. Peacock is not one of my favorites and you can access some of it without a subscription. I have found that I rarely watch it for anything besides skating, which is why I canceled my subscription. I think there are lots of people like me who would not subscribe to Peacock if it did not have skating. The odds are good that they will have another deal before Skate America, and I might buy one then if it would include the 2023-24 skating season and the 2024 Olympics.

Sounds like a plan.

USFS and NBC Sports Group's most recent (I think) figure skating broadcast agreement was announced in April 2018 and is supposed to run through 2026.

Given that they normally charge $4.95 a month (or $9.95 a month for premium), I would say yes.
