Strangely they don't quite overlap properly.....and then some overlaps with Hulu. Sure wish they had just wrapped it all up into Hulu.

Nope, there’s plenty on the NBC app that can’t be found on Peacock for whatever reason.
That happens to me sometimes. Force quit the app and then relaunch it.
tvOS: How to Force Quit a Misbehaving App - The Mac Observer
It's fairly obvious how to quit an app in iOS. But tvOS uses a slightly different technique because there's no on-screen touch interface.

I seem to be having my fair share of issues with my ATV this evening. After watching the first episode of Made for Love, I tried to exit the HBO Max app. But pressing the exit key repeatedly only took me to the app Home screen, and it never exited to the ATV home screen. What is wrong with this app?

Like the show Residen Alien, the peacock app only had half the episodes whereas the NBC app has everything that has aired.

Yes I do. It's not a big deal--i simply press the Home key on my Harmony remote. I just don't like poorly behaving apps.

I tried it on my 2019 Shield based on these ATV4K comments. The Atmos was no better, so I had to increase my Center Channel for dialogue. Fun movie!That's exactly it.
No One was home and I had the house shaking from the start.
It's GvK ..... if you didn't think the house was going to come apart then you didn't think it though to begin with.
Still... there was a little bit of struggle with the dialog. I'm convinced UHD BD is the ONLY way to watch this but in the mean time to avoid spoilers get someone's HBO Max credentials.

It probably depends on your audio system configuration. With Atmos channels, the center channel is mixed low on GvK. Regular Dolby digital might be better for dialogue but more dynamically compressed. I'll give it a test tomorrow on my 3.1 bedroom TV.

I know the old Six Million Dollar Man & Bionic Woman episodes are all on the NBC app but nowhere to be found on Peacock.

I’ll correct myself. If is also useful if you want to let the ATV handle the frame rate conversions esp for 24hz.
(Sadly 120hz is not supported for 4K on my LG C7)

Luckily the C7 can internally convert 24hz 4k content to 120hz, its native panel refresh rate, to reduce artifacts.
"The C7P has a 120 Hz panel and is able to interpolate lower frame rate content to 120 fps, which significantly improves motion." from the rtings review

Would love a private listening option you could plug into the remote like what the Roku has, I know, doubtful
