As streaming services continue to expand their original content, Peacock has become a noteworthy contender with its selection of engaging miniseries. For those looking to embark on a weekend binge-watch session, here are five miniseries available on Peacock that are certainly worth your time:

1.Dr. Death – Based on the shocking true story of Dr. Christopher Duntsch, this gripping drama follows the rise and fall of a neurosurgeon who left a trail of patients permanently maimed or dead, and the justice system’s effort to stop him.

2.Angelyne – Dive into the mystery and allure surrounding Angelyne, the enigmatic Los Angeles billboard icon. The series explores her rise to fame, her carefully crafted persona, and the impact she had on media and pop culture.

3.Brave New World – A visually stunning adaptation of Aldous Huxley’s dystopian novel, this series introduces viewers to a utopian society that has achieved peace and stability through the prohibition of monogamy, privacy, money, family, and history itself.

4.The Capture – This British mystery thriller follows a detective as he investigates an incident caught on CCTV that spirals into a complex conspiracy involving fake news and surveillance state methods.

5.Rutherford Falls – Although not a miniseries in the traditional sense but rather a comedy series with binge-worthy qualities, it deserves mention for its heartwarming portrayal of two lifelong friends—and the Native American community at large—as they grapple with personal ambitions and cultural preservation amidst history’s reshaping.
