Newlyweds starts October 23 on NBC, then Peacock next day

Téa Leoni and Tim Daly play Jeanie and James in the new comedy; NBC has now set the U.S. Friday slot.

NBC's new comedy Newlyweds now has a U.S. premiere slot: Friday, October 23 at 8:30 p.m. Eastern , followed by streaming on Peacock the next day . NBCUniversal's September 23 fall guide gives those dates and identifies the characters as Jeanie and James. Téa Leoni plays free-spirited Jeanie opposite Tim Daly's more

orderly James. The two marry quickly after a whirlwind romance and then discover how much of each other's friends and family they must learn to live with. Jamie Lee Curtis co-created the series with Gail Lerner and appears as a recurring guest star. The NBC and Peacock details are U.S. scheduling information. The

announcement does not establish a UK broadcaster or streaming launch. Viewers abroad should wait for a local distributor listing before treating October 23 as their own availability date. Headline image: Tim Daly and Téa Leoni in Newlyweds, photograph by Nicole Weingart/NBC.
