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.
On Saturday, August 19, the entertainment community will come together for Stand Up to Cancer(R) (SU2C) and its eighth roadblock fundraising special, supporting urgently needed research and new treatments for cancer. Debuting in a refreshing new format, the televised celebration entitled "How It Started, How It's Going" will recognize SU2C's impact and progress over the last 15 years.
This year's show will air on Saturday, August 19 at 8 p.m. ET and PT / 7 p.m. CT. Over the course of one hour, the show will celebrate 15 years of cutting-edge cancer research and highlight special moments with stars from film, television, sports and journalism who have supported the SU2C movement. The show will also feature renowned SU2C-funded cancer scientists, who will discuss the progress being made in the fight against cancer and the critical need to continue to fund life-saving research. There will also be touching stories from cancer survivors who have received breakthrough treatments supported by SU2C.
Celebrities making a special appearance during the show include Elizabeth Banks, Jessica Biel, Don Cheadle, Katie Couric, Danai Gurira, Tony Hale, Ken Jeong, Maria Menounos, Julianne Moore, Tig Notaro, Jimmy Smits, Eric Stonestreet and Justin Timberlake; a special montage of comedic skits from past shows will feature Jack Black, Ben Falcone, Zach Galifianakis, Brad Garrett, Bill Hader, Jon Hamm, Kevin Hart, Ed Helms, Melissa McCarthy, and Matthew McConaughey. The televised special will also feature past musical performances from the likes of Brittany Howard, Simone Ledward Boseman, and The Who. SU2C's biennial specials have been supported by hundreds of celebrities over the past 15 years. Additional celebrity guests will be announced in the weeks leading up to the telecast.
