You might know Emilia Clarke and Haley Lu Richardson from Game of Thrones and The White Lotus, but now they're starring together in this 1970s-set spy thriller series on Peacock. Ponies is a standout for its engrossing action and comedy, and for Clarke and Richardson's likable CIA operatives who begin to uncover a Cold War conspiracy.

If a 10-episode show with Oscar-winning actor Eddie Redmayne, elaborate assassinations and a cat-and-mouse game sounds like a binge you want to go on, this thriller awaits. Redmayne plays an assassin who can hide his identity like a chameleon and execute targets from more than 2 miles away. Lashana Lynch stars as a British intelligence officer attempting to stop him. You can look forward to a second season of the show, which reimagines the 1971 novel and 1973 film of the same name.

A new show set in the same universe as the beloved comedy The Office understandably comes with high expectations. Peacock's Office spin-off, The Paper, and its workplace sitcom predecessor share the same fictional documentary crew and character of Oscar Martinez, played by Oscar Nuñez. A fresh setting and plot centered on a newcomer trying to revitalize a dying Midwestern newspaper make this amusing entry worth watching.

Four seasons of deception in, The Traitors' mix of reality TV personalities, creative challenges and secret identities is still extremely enjoyable. Based on the Dutch reality series De Verraders, the show rounds up cunning game-players who try to win a cash prize by succeeding in challenges and identifying the "traitors" among them. Hosted by award-winning actor Alan Cumming, backstabbers in the group who aren't outed in time take all the moolah.

If you like dark comedies or are a fan of Everything Everywhere All at Once star Stephanie Hsu, look no further than this hilarious half-hour show. Hsu plays a 33-year-old woman who learns that her exes are dying and she has to inform her past lovers and attempt to figure out the cause. Girls actress Zosia Mamet stars as her helpful, true-crime-loving best friend.

What if you could always tell when someone is lying? That's the talent possessed by Natasha Lyonne's Charlie in Poker Face, a 10-episode detective series created by Knives Out writer and director Rian Johnson. Each episode introduces a crime and wraps things up before the next entry starts. With the charisma of Russian Doll star Lyonne and an eye-popping list of guest stars such as Adrien Brody, Chloë Sevigny and Rhea Perlman, Poker Face is thrilling, addictive TV.

This Peacock crime drama has a show-stopping cast and is based on true events. Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist centers on Kevin Hart's Chicken Man, a hustler who must clear his name after a bold robbery. The show is set in Atlanta in 1970 and also stars Don Cheadle, Samuel L. Jackson, Taraji P. Henson, Terrence Howard and singer Chloe Bailey.

Wondery's popular 2018 true crime podcast Dr. Death led me to think in disbelief, "How did nobody put a stop to this guy?" Watching Peacock's TV adaptation of the podcast is a similarly maddening affair. Christopher Duntsch, a Dallas neurosurgeon, killed two patients he operated on and injured 31 others. Watch for a captivating, chilling tale about a surgeon's horrific crime wave that lasted far longer than it should have.

If you're a sucker for resort-set TV shows that will get you speculating, you should check out this Peacock series. Cristin Milioti and William Jackson Harper star as a married couple who begin to explore the disappearances of two young people more than a decade earlier. Pack a trunk for paradise and get ready for the twisty story to take hold.

This British comedy spotlighting an all-female Muslim punk band is extremely fun and boasts a cast of talented young people. The series kicks off by introducing 26-year-old Amina, a secretly skilled yet shy musician. Enter Lady Parts, an uber cool group in need of a new guitarist. Time spent with these ladies flies by, making We Are Lady Parts a Peacock pick worth your streaming hours.

The true crime drama Devil in Disguise: John Wayne Gacy is about the notorious serial killer who murdered at least 33 young men and boys in the 1970s. The show focuses on the victims and their families and the systemic failures that encouraged his horrific crimes.

Artificial Intelligence is inescapable these days, so no wonder it's a major part of a Peacock series. The show follows a nun (not named Mrs. Davis) who tries to take down an all-powerful AI (named Mrs. Davis). For a wild show with a lot of ideas, don't miss this risk-taking, globe-trotting Peacock series.

Ed Helms of The Office, The Hangover and other beloved comedies stars in this sitcom focused on the small town of Rutherford Falls. Helms plays Nathan, a descendant of the town's founder and an advocate for his family history. The show is charming and funny (even as it tackles weighty subjects) and it's also been lauded for its Indigenous representation on-screen and in the writer's room.

No, it's not an original Peacock series. But I'd be doing anyone reading this a huge disservice if I didn't mention that the seven-season sitcom focused on the zany occupants of Pawnee, Indiana, has a home on Peacock. This goofy, big-hearted show has drawn genuine belly laughs out of me countless times. It's buoyant, witty and just as good on rewatch. The point is, you'll want to keep this one handy for a mood refresh when you can't get creepy Dr. Death and his spooky scalpel out of your head.
