What would Peacock be without the Premier League? NBCUniversal’s streaming service is such a vital cog in the viewing habits of fans of Premier League clubs that the two are synonymous. In the same manner, let’s face it. The vast majority of us only subscribe to Peacock because of soccer. In spite of this, what’s your Peacock TV wishlist of improvements to enhance the streaming service?

First, let’s be fair and mention that Peacock TV has quietly made considerable progress since launching in 2020. For instance, you can pause and rewind games. Consecutive matches now automatically are on the same stream, so there’s no need to jump from stream to stream. In the same manner, it appears that the picture quality and frames per second have improved.

Subsequently, we were glad to see Premier League Productions broadcasts being shown during halftime of the Goal Rush this season. Of equal importance, the price has remained the same ($5/month for Peacock Premium, and free for Comcast Xfinity customers). For example, that’s the same price even though the number of Premier League games on Peacock has increased from 175 last year to 180 this season. In contrast, there is undoubtedly room for improvement.

Peacock TV wishlist of improvements

Therefore, here’s our wishlist of improvements to enhance the streaming service. If you see any that are missing, add them to the comments section below.

1) Give us more games. ESPN+ has been on the cutting edge of offering leagues to soccer fans. For instance, you can watch every single LaLiga and Bundesliga game on ESPN+ without any worry. But if you want to watch the Premier League, you get 180 games from Peacock but you’ll need another subscription to a cable/satellite/streaming service to get the remaining 200 matches. As a result, Peacock is not appealing to cord cutters and it upsets cable subscribers who feel they have to pay more to get all games. The solution is to offer all 380 games for a higher price point to cord cutters.

2) More soccer. We realize that NBCUniversal paid $2.5 billion to renew the Premier League rights for 2022/23 through 2027/28, but we would love NBC Sports to expand its portfolio of club soccer. Yes, it does have the World Cup in Spanish starting in November. But would it be too much to ask for Peacock to consider bidding on rights to other soccer leagues?

3) Give more visibility to the Premier League TV Channel. There are a lot of fans of Premier League clubs who aren’t aware that Peacock has a 24/7 Premier League TV Channel that’s hidden away. You’ll find it if you scroll deep down through the ‘Channels’ section. From what we’ve heard, there are plans to improve the design of Peacock in the future. It’s not as clunky as it used to be. However, making the Premier League TV Channel easier to find in Peacock should be a prerequisite.

4) Take the shackles off Premier League Productions content. We all know NBC Sports is the exclusive broadcaster of the Premier League in the United States. But NBC Sports’ insistence of blacking out the Premier League TV Channel when there’s pre-match coverage on USA is silly. If we’re paying for Peacock, we should be able to see Peacock’s coverage of the Premier League TV Channel. It’s not going to make that much of a difference to the viewing numbers on USA to force us to watch NBC’s pre-match on linear TV.
