The 'Burbs (2026) Peacock Review: Dark Secrets Unveiled 🏡

A young couple moves back to the husband's childhood home, only to face threats from new neighbors and uncover dark secrets of their cul-de-sac. Taking its name and premise from the 1989 dark comedy classic, Peacock’s series The ‘Burbs uses its predecessor’s lore to craft a new, but familiar, tale. And I don’t know about you, but I’ve never seen anybody drive their garbage down to the street and bang the hell out of it with a stick. Have you? This new 8-episode first season stars Keke Palmer, Jack Whitehall, Julia Duffy, Paula Pell, Mark Proksch, Kapil Talwalkar, Erica Dasher, and Justin Kirk. The show is entirely based on the same sort of idea as the Tom Hanks film from 1989. Thanks for checking out my The 'Burbs (2026) Peacock Review!
