Mr. Mercedes has found a new home.

The critically acclaimed television series based on the Stephen King books found a new home with the Peacock streaming service. The mystery drama showcased on the Audience network channel for three seasons before its cancellation. Peacock revived the series by streaming the first two seasons on its platform with the third season to be released at a later date.

The crime drama follows a retired police officer Bill Hodges, continuously haunted by the unsolved case of “Mr. Mercedes.” Mr. Mercedes was a mass murder event when someone stole a Mercedes vehicle and ran over job seekers at a job fair—murdering sixteen people. A psychopath Brady Hartsfield emerges in taunting Hodges in an online cat-and-mouse game, which he intends to leave a permanent mark on the world.
