NBC rounds out the year with a two-week takeover of the UK's smash hit game show The Wheel, hosted by renowned British comedian Michael McIntyre. The all-new U.S. version showcases a colossal spinning wheel of celebrity guests who help everyday contestants win life-changing money. The takeover begins Monday, Dec. 19 with new episodes airing nightly at 10 p.m. ET/PT, and continues the following week with new episodes airing at 8 p.m. The series features suspenseful high-stakes trivia, laugh-out-loud moments and more than 50 all-star guests seated on a spectacular 42-foot-wide spinning wheel.
The all-star lineup includes Clay Aiken, Carole Baskin, Brie Bella, Tom Bergeron, Bobby Berk, Bre-Z, Jaime Camil, Christine Chiu, Margaret Cho, Deepak Chopra, Cat Cora, Victor Cruz, Ester Dean, Russell Dickerson, Taye Diggs, Sheila E., Shawn Johnson East, Josh Flagg, Kate Flannery, Vivica A.

Created and hosted by McIntyre, each hourlong episode follows six celebrity guests spinning, advising and supporting charismatic contestants as they endeavor to be the last one standing. As the contestants vie for the chance to win over $100,000, the celebrities lend their expertise in a variety of hilarious and outrageous categories from candy and comedians to poker and politics.
Peacock announced Sean Patton: Number One, a stand-up comedy event, at New Orleans legendary Tipitina's, that takes audiences on a deep dive into the personal experiences that made Sean who he is today. The 90-minute special explores everything from his obsessive-compulsive disorder to his madhouse of an upbringing and the broken, yet unbreakable bonds of his family. Patton, born in New Orleans and based in Brooklyn, offers a hilarious and heart wrenching tapestry of his ridiculous, yet human psyche. Sean Patton: Number One serves as a reminder to viewers that there is beauty in human flaws and that laughter is the Number One way to persevere and accept the shortcomings that define who we are.
