NBC News Studios is the documentary and scripted production arm of NBC News. It produces non-scripted, documentary-related, and select scripted programmes for NBCUniversal's broadcast networks and streaming service Peacock.
History
In January 2020, NBC News shuttered down its previous non-fiction documentary unit Peacock Productions. Later that same month, NBC News returned to the documentary business by launching NBC News Studios, its own in-house production studio.[1]
