Hallmark Content Leaving Peacock on May 1, Ending Three-Year Partnership
Hallmark is bidding farewell to Peacock. (We hope they sent a card, at least.)
Hallmark's library of content is leaving the NBCUniversal streamer on May 1, TVLine has confirmed. That means original series like When Calls the Heart and The Way Home, as well as Hallmark's extensive selection of holiday movies, will no longer be available to stream on Peacock. (Vulture's Josef Adalian first broke the news on Bluesky.)

Hallmark content began streaming on Peacock in 2022, with a source terming it 'a successful partnership.' But now that Hallmark has its own streaming service, Hallmark+, it's decided to move all of its content there. (Hallmark+, which rebranded and relaunched in September, currently costs $7.99 per month, or $79.99 annually.)
In November, Hallmark announced that its popular drama The Way Home would debut its new season exclusively on Hallmark+, with a plan to eventually air it months later on Hallmark Channel. But after a fan protest, Hallmark reversed its decision, moving Season 3 of The Way Home back to Hallmark Channel for a January premiere. The Way Home was renewed for Season 4 in March.
Will you miss watching Hallmark content on Peacock? Will this inspire you to switch over to Hallmark+? Let us know what you think in the comments.

‘Sirens' Star's Mystery Thriller ‘Drop' Gets Peacock Streaming Date
Meghann Fahy and Brandon Sklenar in "Drop." Drop — a mystery thriller starring Netflix's Sirens star Meghann Fahy and 1923's Brandon Sklenar — is coming soon to streaming on Peacock. Directed by Christopher Landon, Drop was released in theaters on April 11 before debuting on digital streaming via premium video on demand on April 29. The summary for Drop reads, "Meghann Fahy (Devon in Sirens) plays Violet, a widowed mother on her first date in years, who arrives at an upscale restaurant where she is relieved that her date, Henry (Brandon Sklenar) is more charming and handsome than she expected. "But their chemistry begins to curdle as Violet begins being irritated and then terrorized by a series of anonymous drops to her phone.' According to Peacock, Drop will begin streaming on the NBC Universal platform on Friday, July 11. For those who haven't subscribed to the platform, Peacock offers an ad-based package for $7.99 per month or $79 per year and an ad-free package for $13.99 per month or $139.99 per year. Meghann Fahy Gets Top Billing On 'Drop' Following Meghann Fahy's success of Max's The White Lotus Season 2 — which earned her an Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series Primetime Emmy Award nomination in 2023 — and a pivotal supporting role in Netflix's limited series The Perfect Couple, Fahy is billed as the lead actor in Drop. In an interview with Variety before Drop was released in theaters in April, Fahy told the trade publication that she was excited to be No. 1 on the call sheet for the film. 'It's been amazing. It's so interesting when you go film something, and then a year later, you get to see and share it with people,' Fahy told Variety. 'It's a really, really cool moment. I loved the process of making the film so much. It was a very new experience for me in a lot of ways. I learned a ton, and I met some amazing people.' Ultimately, Fahy knows there are several other talented people who come together to make movies happen. 'I formed such close relationships with the cast, especially Brandon Sklenar and [fellow actor] Jeffrey Self, so sharing the moment with them is something I will remember when I look back because it felt like such a team sport,' Fahy told Variety. 'Everybody in the cast was there every day, from the beginning to the end of the day, whether or not they ended up being on camera, because we never knew how far we were going to get [in each scene]," she added. "So, it felt very communal, like, everybody was a big part of the making of the film.' Drop earned $16.6 million domestically and $12 million internationally for a worldwide box office gross of $28.6 million. Drop had an $11 million production budget before prints and advertising, per The Numbers. Drop was a big hit with Rotten Tomatoes critics, who collectively gave the film an 84% 'fresh' rating based on 220 reviews. Drop also earned a 79% 'fresh' Popcornmeter score based on 1,000-plus verified user ratings. Rated PG-13, Drop begins streaming on Peacock on July 11.

When ‘M3GAN 2.0' Will Be Available to Stream and How to Watch
Everyone's favorite dancing robot is officially back, but has she really changed? M3GAN 2.0 is officially here and it looks like she is not the only android out here that's causing chaos. Now there's AMELIA, who is plotting an AI takeover, which we obviously don't want. So what's a girl to do? Well, you're going to want to tune in to find out. Thankfully, it's a lot easier to catch a movie than it is to take down a murderous military robot and we've made it super easy for ya! Here's everything you need to know about watching M3GAN 2.0. The M3GAN sequel was officially released on June 27, 2025. Don't worry, you don't need to build a special program or anything to try to get tickets. All you have to do is check out showtimes at your local theater to see when it's playing and check it out! But she's not dancing on the big screen forever! If you want to catch it in theaters, you're definitely going to want to tune in ASAP! Okay, so, about that... Unfortunately, the movie isn't available on streaming just yet. But don't you worry, it'll be here soon enough! Like all our favorite films, it'll be available on streaming after it leaves the big screen. While it is released by Universal Pictures, exactly *where* it'll be streaming is still a bit up in the air. Normally, that would mean it will be out on Peacock, but the first film is currently streaming on Starz. But hopefully we get an answer real soon! The one thing you can count on? You can still rent or buy it at home via online stores like Prime Video, iTunes, Fandango at Home, YouTube, or Google Play. Or if you're a huge fan, you'll also be able to buy it on Blu-ray and DVD!
