The TV Answer Man – Buy Me a Coffee!

Peacock this week (March 15-21, 2026) will add 14 new TV shows and movies to its streaming lineup. Here’s the one to watch, in my humble opinion:

Wicked: For Good (2025)
When to Watch: Friday, March 20
What Kind of Movie: Fantasy Musical
Who’s In It: Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Jeff Goldblum
If you watched last month’s Winter Olympics for even a few minutes, you are probably acutely aware that Peacock will exclusively stream Wicked: For Good this week; the NBC-operated streamer ran non-stop ads promoting the premiere. The sequel to the 2024 Wicked again stars Ariana Grande as Glinda the Good with her sidekick Cynthia Erivo as the green-faced Wicked Witch of the West. The plot involves animal rights and other trendy issues but it’s basically backdrop for the sing-alongs that cheered millions in the theaters. To replicate that theater experience, Peacock will offer a ‘sing-along’ version of the film as well as the original and a director’s commentary. And if that’s not enough, there will also be an accompanying documentary called, Defying Gravity: The Curtain Rises On Wicked.
