Summer Streamin' 24 - Teacup - Season One

Teacup gives massive Under the Dome vibes as yet another Halloween horror series came to a close last week in time for Halloween. It just gets bigger and bigger every year right!

Teacup is created by Ian McCulloch and inspired by the novel Stinger by Robert R. McCammon.

The latest Peacock series commenced earlier last month, with two episodes weekly. Featuring a tight eight half-hour episodes. I originally thought this was a miniseries. However the eighth episode left us on a massive cliffhanger.

For this new series, no spoilers will be found here. So what's the drum? On an isolated ranch in rural Georgia, several people are forced together to face a mysterious threat.

Australian and former Dexter legend, Yvonne Strahovski stars as Maggie Chenoweth. alongside Scott Speedman, Chaske Spencer, Kathy Baker, Boris McGiver, Diany Rodriguez, Caleb Dolden, Émilie Bierre , Luciano Leroux, Rob Morgan and Bill Heck as Lt. Olsen.

The series was an easy watch. Along with Under the Dome vibes it has a real Stephen King feel.

For the most part it's not too scary (particularly when you get a better understanding of what is really going) but the rural setting along with the isolation that comes with being distant, is a little creepy.

Overall, Peacock is starting to be a bit of a player in the streaming game. I am hoping for more Dr. Doctor (which will stream on Stan), Poker Face , Twisted Metal and Bel-Air which will actually all stream as legacy titles on Stan. Poker Face and Twisted Metal are all set to return, however decisions seem to be slow to be announced at the NBC adjacent streamer.

Teacup and newer titles however all stream on Binge.

So if you can't wait for the final season of The Handmaid's Tale for Yvonne Strahovski, all eight (short) episodes of Teacup stream now!
