As the streaming wars continue to rage, what's new on Peacock March 2021 comes with heavier weight, especially since Disney+ has hit some bangers as of late and CBS-All Access branded as Paramount+ (also hoping to make a push).
As someone who does us Peacock near daily, it's a useful streaming service. It's nowhere near the level with original programming as the big three, but the backlog of IPs and some (Mr. Mercedes jumps out) exclusives do make it a worthwhile investment, especially at its cheap entry point (there's a free version) and the fact Comcast users get the $5.00 version for free.
It's also worth mentioning, and this is 100 percent the biggest New on Peacock March 2021 news, that the WWE Network will call the service home a bit later in the month. Live sports is an area often neglected by the other big streaming services, and where a place like Peacock can find a niche.

March 2021 Peacock Closing Thoughts
As noted earlier, Peacock is making the right move by continuing to focus on live sports. They already have good deals for soccer fans, and are adding the biggest wrestling company on the planet to its roster — meaning, at least for a few days a year, an insane amount of eyeballs will be on the platform for events like WrestleMania.
That said, Peacock truly needs more original programming. Netflix probably puts out far too much of it (close to what feels like 100 per month), as only a handful actually hit. Disney+ (including Hulu here) is doing the less is more approach, apparently focusing on quality over quantity. The same can be said for HBO Max.
It's do or die time for a lot of these platforms. People only have so much money they can spend on streaming services. With the prices of Netflix going up, but cheaper options available, only a few of the non-big three will be able to survive the next few years (and/or merge with each other).
Still, what's new on Peacock March 2021 shows some promise, even if it all mostly rests with a single pro wrestling property.
