Dateline Launches Dateline en Español on Peacock
Available First on Peacock, New 24/7 Streaming Channel Expands Dateline’s Spanish-Language Presence Following Launch of Fully Translated Episodes on Telemundo & the ‘Dateline en español’ Showcast
May 27, 2026
Dateline is launching a Dateline en Español always-on streaming channel hosted by Noticias Telemundo and Weekend NBC Nightly News anchor José Díaz-Balart, available first on Peacock. It will be available as a FAST channel on other platforms in the coming weeks.
Viewers will have access to a library of more than 100 hours of Dateline’s Spanish-language episodes, bringing the iconic true crime franchise to even more audiences. The first themed marathon, Juegos Peligrosos, is expected to air in mid-June, when the FIFA World Cup 2026™ is underway.
Dateline’s expanding Spanish-language footprint already includes fully translated broadcasts on Telemundo as well as the Dateline en español showcast. Today’s launch on Peacock also arrives amid continued momentum for Dateline’s flagship 24/7 streaming channel, which recently delivered its best season on record, up 4% year over year, as well as for Dateline’s showcast, which remains the #1 True Crime podcast, according to Podtrac.
