LGBTQ+ movies and shows to stream on Peacock for Pride Month 

Queer as Folk Key Art

Queer as Folk

Set against the gritty charm of working-class Pittsburgh, the groundbreaking Peacock revival follows a tight-knit group of gay friends as they navigate love, sex, ambition, and identity with unflinching honesty. It's raw and real, capturing the highs and heartbreaks of chosen family in a world that doesn't always understand them. Bold for its time and still resonant today, the series balances steamy romance with emotional depth — offering a vivid, unapologetic look at queer life, friendship, and the fight to live authentically. Stream Queer as Folk here.

Punky Brewster

Punky (Soleil Moon Frye) may be the heart of the story, but it’s her best friend Cherie (Cherie Johnson) who quietly steals scenes — and hearts. Now all grown up, Cherie is thriving, with a successful career and a loving relationship with her girlfriend, Lauren (Jasika Nicole). Their bond brings a refreshing and joyful queer love story to the forefront — one rooted in mutual respect, warmth, and years of shared history. As Punky rebuilds her life and makes room for new beginnings, Cherie and Lauren’s relationship serves as a steady anchor and a reminder that family isn’t just who you’re born to — it’s who shows up, loves you fully, and stays. Stream Punky Brewster here.

Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist

After a freak event scrambles her brainwaves, sharp-witted coder Zoey Clarke (Jane Levy) wakes up with an unbelievable new ability: she can hear people’s deepest thoughts and emotions, expressed through full-blown musical numbers. From co-workers to total strangers, everyone’s heart is suddenly singing, and only Zoey can hear the soundtrack. As she struggles to make sense of this chaotic new reality, she finds her greatest ally in Mo, her genderfluid, glam-loving neighbor (Alex Newell). With powerhouse vocals, razor-sharp wit, and soulful wisdom, Mo becomes Zoey’s guide, confidante, and emotional compass. Their friendship grounds the show’s dazzling premise, proving that sometimes the truest connection comes from listening between the lines. Stream Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist here.

Queer Planet

Narrated by Andrew Rannells of The Book of Mormon, Peacock’s documentary Queer Planet examines scientific evidence of “gay penguins,” “bisexual lions,” “sex-changing clownfish,” and many more instances of flora and fauna upending traditional ideas about sexuality and gender. Queerness is natural, and multi-gendered mushrooms prove it! Stream Queer Planet here. 

Bros 

One of the best new gay movies to come out in recent years, Peacock's official description of Bros (which stars Billy Eichner and Luke Macfarlane) reads, "Two commitment-phobic men start showing their vulnerable sides as their undeniable attraction turns into something resembling a relationship." Stream Bros here. 

Every Body

"Three intersex individuals set aside medical advice to keep their bodies a secret and instead come out as their authentic selves," reads Peacock's official description of this moving documentary. Stream Every Body here

Of an Age

"During the summer of 1999, an 18-year-old amateur ballroom dancer has an unexpected and intense 24-hour romance with a friend's older brother," reads Peacock's official description of this drama film. Stream Of an Age here. 

Title availability on Peacock is subject to change.
