Throw in a robust approach to security and ExpressVPN is the best all-round VPN for streaming - but perhaps best of all, it has a 30-day money back guarantee plus 3 months FREE (opens in new tab) when you subscribe for a year.

Punky Brewster's 2020 reboot is launching exclusively on Peacock (opens in new tab), NBC's new streaming service, in the US. 

All 10 episodes will be available to watch online from Thursday, February 25 to subscribers with a Peacock Premium subscription which costs just $5 a month and can be checked out for nothing thanks to the FREE 1-week Peacock trial. (opens in new tab)

Those who like what they see and think the might be in it for the long haul can save by taking advantage of a Peacock Annual plan.

A Peacock Premium Plus option is also available if you want to strip out ads completely and costs $10 a month on a rolling basis - or save an extra 10% on Premium Plus (opens in new tab) by purchasing an annual plan.

Peacock is available on a wide range of devices. As web-based service on PCs and laptops, it's also compatible with: iOS, Apple TV, Android, Android TV, Chromecast, PlayStation, Xbox, Vizio Smartcast, select LG smart TVs, and Xfinity Flex 4K. We'll let you know where to find the Peacock app you need as soon as they're live.

Not in the US? Anyone from America who wants to sign up to Peacock from abroad can do so by using a VPN (opens in new tab) - if you have your US credit card details to hand, great, but you can also pay using internationally recognized PayPal, if it's more convenient.

Our latest February 2021 testing reveals that Peacock is working well with our recommended VPN service at the time of publication.

Folks in the UK are out of luck when it currently comes to watching the Punky Brewster reboot, as NBC/Peacock has yet to hatch a deal with a provider to bring the show over to Blighty.

There's not even a streaming provider we're aware of offering classic episodes of the original show, but we'll let you know when the 2021 Punky Brewster reboot gets a UK release date - if that ever happens.

However, for anyone in the UK from a country where the Punky Brewster reboot is available (which is a great many), there's a more immediate solution. Just grab hold of a reliable VPN (opens in new tab) and you'll be able to stream the show just like you would at home.

NBC has a deal with Corrus Entertainment in Canada that allows the network's channels to broadcast Peacock Originals in the Great White North after they've aired in the US.

That means Punky Brewster 2021 episodes air in Canada from Thursday, March 4 on linear TV on the W Network (opens in new tab), at 8pm ET/PT, with the channel widely available through Canadian cable providers.

Neither offers a streaming-only option, however. For that, you'll need to have a STACKTV add-on to a Prime Video subscription. You can take advantage of a FREE Prime Video trial (opens in new tab) in Canada today, with STACK also offering a few days of viewing on the house, and it'll have all episodes available for streaming from the same date.

If you're outside of Canada or that just sounds too complicated, don't worry - just throw a good VPN (opens in new tab) in your backpack and you can stream your favorite shows and services just like you would at home.

Australians have it good when it comes to the Punky Brewster reboot, as VOD service Stan (opens in new tab) is set to stream the show pretty much in tandem with the US, with episodes available on the service from Friday, February 26.

Stan's $10 a month Basic plan provides single-stream, SD quality access to classic and cutting-edge TV series, Stan originals like Bloom and The Other Guy, and blockbuster movies. 

But upgrading to its Standard (S$14) or Premium ($19) plans will increase the number of devices you can stream to, while also offering an improved HD or 4K Ultra HD viewing experience. Plus, any newbies to the world of Stan can indulge themselves with a hearty 30-day free trial (opens in new tab).
