Killing It Gets Play on YouTube, TikTok and USA Network; Stand Up to Cancer Special Returns

Peacock's critically acclaimed comedy series Killing It, starring Craig Robinson, drops the first three episodes of Season 1 on YouTube and Episode 1 on TikTok, available to stream now. Additionally, the first two episodes from Season 1 will air tonight, Aug. 7 at 8 pm PT / 11 pm ET, on USA Network following WWE Monday Night Raw, and viewers can watch the first episode of Killing It Season 1 and other select Peacock Original episodes for free on Peacocktv.com without a subscription.

Season 2 of Killing It premieres on Thursday, Aug. 17 (all episodes). Killing It is a comedy about class, capitalism and one man's quest to achieve the American dream. Killing It comes from executive producers Dan Goor and Luke Del Tredici (Brooklyn Nine-Nine), and stars Craig Robinson, Claudia O'Doherty and Rell Battle. The series is produced by Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group. In the first season, Craig Foster (Craig Robinson) teams up with his Uber driver, Jillian (Claudia O'Doherty), to enter a state-sponsored snake-hunting contest in hopes of achieving the American dream and becoming a successful entrepreneur.

The second season (premiering Aug. 17) picks up a year later, as Craig (Craig Robinson) and Jillian (Claudia O'Doherty) take the money they won from the Florida Python Challenge and use it to buy a saw palmetto berry farm. Craig is so close to realizing his dream of shrinking men's prostates, making his family proud, and - most importantly - getting filthy rich. Just as they're about to start making money, however, a series of unexpected visitors (some human, some not) threaten to destroy everything they've built.
