Peacock’s new Select plan might be cheaper, but it’s missing a lot

Here is a 193-word summary of the news article: Peacock, the streaming service owned by NBCUniversal, has introduced a new, cheaper subscription plan called Peacock Select. Priced at $7.99/month or $79.99/year, it is $3 less than the ad-supported Peacock Premium plan and $9 less than the ad-free Peacock Premium Plus. However, the Peacock Select plan offers a limited selection of content compared to the Premium tiers. It includes current and library shows from NBC and Bravo, as well as some other licensed TV series. But it excludes Peacock Originals like Love Island, live sports, movies, and access to local NBC channels. The article suggests that Peacock Select may not be worth it for some subscribers, particularly fans of Peacock's reality shows, sports, and films. However, it could be a good option for those primarily interested in NBC and Bravo content. It's unclear if Peacock Select will be a long-term offering, as the company says it is being "tested" for various subscription options. Overall, the new Peacock Select plan provides a cheaper alternative, but with significant content limitations compared to the Premium tiers.
